    I didn't realise that following a file was even a thing, but I've now turned it on :)

    Yes I had versions of the layout called 'FINAL', but made some other alterations and ended up with FINAL1, FINAL2 e.t.c, same with the artwork, some of it in folders called 'FINAL' or 'RELEASE' but then with some subfolders within them.
     

    It's no surprise my garage and indeed most of my life is cluttered and disorganised despite my best efforts and intentions :D

    Ditto, apart from I've not got a garage, I've got a couple of sheds :)

    Long live unorganised chaos :D

    Cheers for the heads up - I did fix that before release but uploaded the wrong version!

    I'll sort it out once back home, won't be long :)

     

    (edit - 22/03/24 17:24) Version 1.1 uploaded. Genuinely a bit gutted about that, to be honest I'm very messy when I make layouts - multiple folders with multiple versions and then multiple versions within those folders. Zipped the wrong damn one up :)

    One issue it does raise is that I had no idea of the comments regarding the issue until a moment ago when I went to download the layout on my MFME cab downstairs, and noticed the 8 comments. I didn't realise I didn't get any kind of notifications for those? Perhaps it's because I wasn't tagged? But I get plenty of notifications for the 'release area' forum thread, just not for the replies under the file in the download section :)

    Many thanks to @Multi Retro Man and @BarXQueen for your efforts in solving it for people on the thread while I was oblivious to the issue :)

    Reading that reminds me of when I first started doing the layouts and I was getting confused which was which. I was loading a version, thinking it was the one I was working on and then realised that it wasn't and I couldn't get my head round it at first but after a while, I used to make a backup copy of it after I'd been working on it for a while and have a directory called "Own Layouts" where I then have subdirectories of the machines I'm working on and within that, a folder called Completed.

    One thing I did was to Zip them up and I'd forgotten about some of them because I had deleted the directory they were in and they didn't show up when I chose Load Game.

    It's all a good learning curve and I'm glad I can do things to help whenever I can :)

    One thing I realised is that sometimes when I upload a new machine, the "Follow this file" option isn't ticked, so I have to make sure I tick it to get notifications :D

    Following on from the comment above from Multi Retro Man I think the X on reel 3 should be a Bar?

    Nice work there, I'll look at updating my machine and see how it goes.

    If it's okay, I'll simply upload the updated reel 3 for people to download and update their machine.
