Al Murrays DX by Multi Retro Man
By Multi Retro Man in Barcrest
Okay, where do I begin? Well I started this months and months ago and after straightening the machine up, I quickly realised how much effort had gone into the classic by @Reg especially on the dartboard lighting and thought I might not be able to actually do the DX after all.
Anyhow, after doing other ones and not thinking I couldn't do it, I thought I will do it and I have done so
As always with my thanks, it has to be to the late, great Wizard for his fanastic emulator. Still saddens me to think he's not with us any more.
Thanks to @Reg for the classic layout in the first place.
Thanks go to @infection as I'm sure I got the image from his collection and if not, I would still like to thank him for his efforts getting all he currently has.
I have created 3 images on the top right that show £5, £10 and £20 inserts. The lighting next to the coin insert is for inserting £1. I think I took the lockout off but if not, simply edit it and disable the lockout option, then you can tap it to insert £1.
Keys are the usual ones with the additional numeric keypad 123456 for the hi left, middle and right etc.
Now the good bits and bad bits.
Good - It works fine and I haven't found any issues
Bad - I cannot work out what light it needs for 50p play, so I used the same one as the 30p play. If anyone knows what it is, please let me know and I'll update the additional messages so you can edit it or I can update it as required.
Finally, as always, I hope you enjoy playing the machine and I hope you all stay safe and keep well.

JPM Golden Bars DX by Multi Retro Man
By Multi Retro Man in JPM
After only finding one image for this, courtesy of @infection, it was a sideways image, so I tried to adjust it and make it look as straight on as I could get it and after lots of fiddling about, I managed to get it to look how I wanted.
Thanks, as always, go to the late, great Wizard for his awesome emulator.
Other thanks must go to @vectra666 for his help with the graphics for the matrix for the cash amounts and little other updates that I used
It's a machine that I thought the lighting was wrong on the cash amounts, but the 3 red 7's are right. The cancel and take buttons seem to be the wrong lighting but I did it that way so they go from right to left in attract mode.
I edited the reels images to match the actual machine because the bars were the wrong colours, the blue star was a red bar and the red and blue 7's didn't look right so I had a go at editing them and whilst not perfect by any means, I think they don't look too bad.
If I make any further edits to the reels, I'll upload the images here so you don't have to redownload the files again.
Anyhow, if you find anything not right, please let me know and I'll try my best to sort it

Beaver Uncovered DX
By Multi Retro Man in Global
Firstly, I wish to dedicate this to our late, fantastic Queen andgive my love to the Royal Family at this sad time.
This machine was one I wasn't sure about and it took my all my skills I've learned over the last couple of years since I started using the image editing program GIMP (no it's not rude before you ask).
One thing I didn't know at the start was that the Club Pass had 2 different colours and I tried to make sure that each one had the correct colours compared to the arcade machine. I managed to get a screenshot from a YouTube video and rotating, cropping and various colour temperature etc. editing each image from it and putting it into this design.
I did honestly think it would take me about 3 weeks or more to do but once I got started, I found it quite easy to do and getting the colours for some things right was also fairly easy to do, once I got my head round what needed to be done.
Thanks as always go to the late, great Chris aka Wizard for his awesome emulator, without which, none of the machines would be available.
I would also like to give thanks to @vectra666 who very kindly supplied updated, proper reels images for this machine, which I think look awesome and really finish the machine off nicely and @infection for the various images he has provided for all the many machines.
Finally, I don't think there are any issues and one thing I am really pleased with is the bottom right image that I edited and think it looks like the real thing.

Pie Factory 2 - MRM
By Multi Retro Man in Vivid
Hi, I decided to release this as it was originally released by duplu on another website back in 2007 then I didn't realise that @Ross (I presume you're the same Ross?) released a DX of this in 2013, until after I had completed my version.
Anyhow, I used some of the original images for certain things like the cash amounts on the top part and the features because I didn't think using the machine's image would be good enough.
Many thanks as always to the late, great Wizard for his amazing emulator and help that he's given me over the short period that I started doing the DX layouts but I'm so greatful to him for his help.
Okay, the one thing I'm not too happy about is the dot matrix but no matter how I tried, I just couldn't get it to look perfect. I tried putting a larger version at the bottom of the machine but I felt it looked a bit silly and it still wasn't right, so I just left the old one in.
Oh I nearly forgot, this was the first layout I've done using merged/blended lamps for the +1, +2 and +3 and it looks okay but when you get to the game, I think it's a bit too bright on a couple of parts but I hope you don't mind too much.
As always, take care everyone, stay safe and I hope you enjoy my release and you are doing okay

Grab The Bank DX by Multi Retro Man
By Multi Retro Man in Barcrest
Part touchpad and part mouse created (much faster with the mouse) I'm pleased to release Grab The Bank. The original image I used was not very good so I managed to edit out all the lighting issues and tried to get it to look as realistic and as good as it can be. The hammers I managed to find from a YooToob video and did a screenshot of it and managed to edit it and used it in this machine.
Okay, so as always, the first and always will be first thanks, go to the late and great Wizard for this superb emulator.
I started this a while ago and thank everyone for their input and help that they've given me (please accept my apologies for not tagging you but I forgot who did what; I blame my age!).
I find it a slightly confusing machine to play at times but with the odd bit of luck, I got the jackpot a couple of times.
Anyhow, as always, hope you enjoy this one and I really enjoyed making this one.

The Big Match by BWB - DX'd by Multi Retro Man
By Multi Retro Man in BWB
Here's my DX of the BWB game, The Big Match.
First thanks go to, as always, the late, great @Wizard for the fantastic emulator.
Next to @Leeham for the original release.
Finally, thanks to @infection for his image database. I hope I have done a good job in everyone's eyes, because the original was taken sideways on and it took me quite a bit of editing to get the left corners put together to look like a proper machine.
I used the shirt image for the GOAL options at either side of the net and edited the image so it looks like it's lit (not 100% happy with it but I figured it looks okay).
With the lack of images foor the nudges, I used the text colour blue and it has white edges but I think that's something to do with the emulator as I have found this on a few machines and thought I'd leave it as it is, unless someone has images of the nudges etc.
I also put the repeat text under the jackpot amount as I wasn't sure where it could go otherwise, so if anyone has any suggestions or images to suit, please let me know and I'll update the machine
Hope you all enjoy the machine and as always, stay safe and take care!
P.S. This was done using a mouse instead of the laptop's touchpad and I found it easier and quicker to use it.

Crazy Fruits Community Party - Bell Fruit £100 - Edits by Vecs
By Multi Retro Man in Bell-Fruit
I was going to add this to my own layout but felt it deserved a release on it's own, due to the work @vectra666 has put into it.
One of the subtle but important changes is the colouring to the cash amounts. I was going to change it on my version but after the issues I had with it, I totally forgot about it and just wanted it to be released.
Anyhow, here's the £100 version and it has issues with inserting notes (albeit I've not played about with it too much so I'm more a designer than a fault fixer lol) so I suggest just inserting pound coins for the time being.
Anyhow, many MANY thanks to @vectra666 for his work and as always @Wizard for his superb emulator. I apologise for not tagging you in or @infection for his superb images as it was the first place I went to, to see if there were any images and I was very pleased with the results
So as always, enjoy everyone

Crazy Fruits Community Party - Bell Fruit
By Multi Retro Man in Bell-Fruit
I was loading some old games and found this one (I love Crazy Fruits) and when I played this, I thought it might need a DX doing so started it yesterday and finished it today.
I published it before I changed the title so after lots of editing and messing around with backup files, I managed to get it fixed properly, so as always, Back-ups are so important, remember to do them regularly.
I edited the top reels because when I saw a video on it, the back was white not black so I thought I'd edit it to look more authentic.
As always, many thanks to the late, great Wizard for this fantastic emulator and his help throughout my learning of the machines.
Thanks to Infection for the images from his collection (I thought about trying to get them from YooToob videos but they weren't very good).
ISSUES:
I know the lamps for the titles and outer fruits are wrong/missing, but I thought I'd release it now until someone can advise what lamps they are (if you know) because it doesn't detract from the actual machine gameplay.
It has keys setup for pound inserts but there's no machine to accept it so it shows "coins only" when you try and use notes in it.

Bucks Bunny DX
By Multi Retro Man in Cool Games
Good afternoon or morning wherever you are.
After being quiet for a while, I've been playing the games and emulator stuff, I played this game and thought I'd have a go at doing a DX for it.
Thanks as always first, to the late, great @Wizard for his superb emulator, without which, we wouldn't have any of these games.
Next and very importantly, mega thanks to @Matty.n for very kindly giving me the unlocked layout and helping me with the lamp numbers for the logos and the Cool image.
Finally, thanks to @infection for the images (I have worked out how to get the machine to look straight better than before).
A kind mention to @woodsy for offering to do a blended lamps for the logos but I thought I'd try and do it slightly different to how I usually do and it was much quicker and has the same effect as I wanted to.
Any issues or anything, as always, please let me know
Enjoy and stay safe everyone!!!

Club Roulette DX
By Multi Retro Man in Crystal
Hi,
After being quiet on the creation front, I decided to have a go at one I'd not played in the arcades for @MikeyPosh and previously the classic layout was done by @Clo06 who very kindly sent me the unlocked version, so I used a previous graphic image as the intro where it has my logo and Clo's as well.
So as always, many thanks to the late, great Wizard for this incredible emulator, which none of the fantastic released would have been possible.
The blue numbers on the game are not very good but given the original image, I don't think I've done too bad a job.
Finally, and more sadly, I would like to dedicate this machine to a very dear friend of mine who sadly passed away several days ago, Jason Boddy. We met at college many years ago and kept in touch on and off ever since and I'm so pleased to say that we saw each other more in the past couple of years and the last time was just before Christmas. He was the first close friend that I've lost and I am still in shock, so please be kind with your criticisms with this machine, although I hope there won't be many negative ones, if any.
Enjoy the machine everyone
