Arcade Retro - PDX based on Electrocoin Big 7
By Multi Retro Man in Miscellaneous
I love the game Big 7 so wanted to do something based on retro emulation in order to be an addition to my Guide To Retro Gaming book and I haven't advertised it in the release and as I changed the name of the folder halfway through the editing, I had to change it back so I hope it works. If it doesn't, please let me know.
I published the layout but it uses the same name as the original one for some bizarre reason.
As always thanks to @Wizard for his awesome emulator and Google for some of the images and MAME for the games with the screenshots that I produced.
Enjoy
PS - If you'd like a PDF version of my book before it's released on Amazon (at a higher cost), please send £5 to deffstar@hotmail.com and contact me on here and I will send you the link to it

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

Gunpowder Slot £70 DX
By Multi Retro Man in Bell-Fruit
A very simple update to the £35 as requested by @infection
Here is the £70 version with a very simple update to the total at the right side.
Unfortunately, I cannot edit the description etc. because the layout was locked by the original classic layout creator and I didn't know when I first started the editing what locking meant or how to lock them.
Anyhow, as always, many thanks to the late, fantastic Wizard who is always remembered for his great programming with MFME.
Hope you enjoy it (I haven't played it but I'm assured that the jackpot is £70).

Volcano - MFME 20.1
By Multi Retro Man in BWB
As I have learned a lot had been I first released my first ever DX release version of Volcano, I thought I'd have a go at updating the graphics of this machine.
At the moment, I'm 99.8% happy with it. The only thing that remains to be changed is the values at the bottom left side as the original photo only had the £5 jackpot, so I'm hopefully going to be able to have a photo of them and be able to update them soon.
Anyhow, I thought I'd release this one as a separate to the previous one I did as I'm not sure if it will work on previous versions of MFME but I have changed the version number to 1.1.0 to identify the differences.
Credits as always go to Wizard (RIP) for making all this possible in the first place.
Everyone else for previous positive comments and assistance you've given me over the months since I started doing them
As always, take care, stay safe and enjoy the game!

All In A Days Work - DX
By Multi Retro Man in Global
Hi everyone, hope you're all safe and well.
The past few weeks for me have been hectic, stressful and at times a bit of a mare.
Anyhow, without going into much detail and being boring (great Pet Shop Boys song) I'll just say decorated 2 bedrooms, new beds put up and repaired as one was faulty, car problems (it's a Vauxhall Astra Twintop so no surprises there, it's a love/hate relationship) and I acquired a new second hand laptop only for the hinge to come away from the lid and break (I was devastated as I only had it a week and actually shed a tear because of the problems I was having with the car etc).
Anyhow, back on with the release, thanks go to @Wizardfor his awesome emulator and legacy he's left, @Clo06for the original release and my wife or letting me buy me second hand laptop MSI PE70 6QE (much, much better than my old Acer 7750G laptop but I still love that one to bits.)
I realise that this one is quite dark but I think it shows the lights up quite well.
Hope you enjoy this mute release and I think my next project may be to revisit Volcano now that I have more experience with the emulator and GIMP program

Cash Lab DX - Single and Full Screen Version
By Multi Retro Man in QPS
What can I say? I have learned how to do a full screen version and apologies but this has taken me quite a long time to complete because I had other projects on the go, including my book, Guide To Retro Emulation and forthcoming book of poems.
As always, thanks and always in my memory when I work or play on fruit machines to @Wizard R.I.P. for his amazingly fantastic emulator.
@vectra666 for the original release and images.
@infection (it's been that long since I started this I can't remember whether I got the images from Vectra666 or Infection so thanks to both for all the help over the years).
In this version, I've added extra keys for additional coins (7 - 10p, 8 - 20p, 9 - 50p) - usual 0 for £1 coin.
I initially tried to add something so it wouldn't run out of pound coins but that ended up making the machine do crazy things with the hold buttons flashing away so I managed to revert to the original (for some reason I thought that the original had the same issue) and updated it properly
One thing I notice is that next to the number, there's lights for Hi and Lo but even looking at a video of someone playing the machine, I've no idea when they actually light up because playing the feature and winning the jackpot doesn't light it up at all. Oh well.
Hope you enjoy playing it as much as I have working on it.
Here's a plug for my 104 page guide to retro emulation. If you would like a PDF copy, please send £5 to deffstar@hotmail.com and I will send you the link to download it
(it will soon be increased in price to £8 and will also be available on Amazon in eBook and Hard Copy at a price yet to be decided but possibly £8 and £15)

Clover All Over DX - £100 Version
By Multi Retro Man in Reflex
This is the £100 version of Clover All Over.
Thanks go to the late, great Wizard for his awesome emulator.
@andy-1 for the unlocked version.
@Ginge for supplying and suggesting his updated version of the graphics but I found some other images from a different machine by Reflex and decided to use those because they had the same colour as the previous one.
If there are any issues, please let me know but I won't be able to update it until tomorrow morning as I'm off to bed now
Night everyone and hope you all enjoy it. I've not had a lot of chance to play it yet but I'll give it a blast in the morning.

Capt 'N Bear DX
By Multi Retro Man in Coinworld
Here's my DX from a flyer that wasn't brilliant quality so I adjusted the contrast and brightness to make it look okay, well I hope it does anyway lol.
Thanks to @Wizard for the fantastic emulator and @andy-1 for the machine in the first instance

Volcano
By Multi Retro Man in BWB
Works in MFME 19.8 (not sure about any other versions)
Firstly, I have been interested in fruit machines, arcade games and console games for many years now and have loved playing the various layouts over the years and thought I would do something to contribute something myself, but wasn't sure what I could do..... until now
After the excellent work by Robinhood75 years ago, I noticed that the red lights weren't shown and I wasn't sure why.
Having enjoyed playing the real machine before, I thought I'd have a look at seeing if I could work out how to show the red lights when the jackpot was guaranteed.
After managing to do this, I wondered how much I could improve the graphics and after someone posted the photograph of the machine, I thought I'd throw myself in at the deep end and give it a go.
I did a square version of the machine but didn't like the smaller left hand side so decided to do a bigger version of it (1600 wide) and after many mistakes and my laptop crashing several times, I finished up with the machine here.
I am still thinking of doing further updates on it, by improving some more graphics, but at the moment, I'm very pleased with the overall effect and hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed finishing it to where it is now.

Monopoly - BWB DX
By Multi Retro Man in BWB
After the original classic DX by @Clo06, he kindly sent me the unlocked version and I made this . As his request, I waited a month before I released it.
Thanks, as always, to the late, fantastic Wizard for his awesome MFME emulator.
It is one of the older machines and I saw a machine that had £3.00 and £6.00 jackpot amount with the faded £3.00 so I tried to recreate it here.
This is possibly the fastest one I've ever done. I started it one evening and then completed it 2 days after
Anyhow, hope you enjoy it and you're staying safe and keeping well.
