To think once I wrote a program to convert USA 60hz to UK 50hz. In practice it would stretch the American games to fill the whole screen, rather than having that all to frequent black bar across the bottom. can`t remember a thing now, literally threw away my collection about 10 years ago - what a plonker!

What a great post, happy birthday Wizard.

it was defender of the crown that hooked me in those early early days. and porn, didnt get that on the c64 - far to pixilated!

but their are others that were affiliated and or just as technical as Chris? Look at the help Guitar received?

What a lovely story, thank you for sharing. I bet his garage/machines were like Aladdin`s cave ! who knows what project were stored on his hard drive, would be great to take a peek.

Dear Chris, You have no idea how much pleasure I`ve had running classics from my youth. None of this would have been possible without you. Cheers, and may you rest in peace. You will never be forgotten. Gary

Incredibly sad news. His emulator has given me more pleasure than i can remember. booting up old classics like razzle dazzle have always put a smile on my face. Having grieved in the past myself, my heart felt condolences go to his family. When the dust has settled, I would love to hear from his friends here about his journey with mfme, and he love of retro gaming. Thank you Chris, may you rest in peace.

it really does depend on the judge, as al lot of their attitudes are that the arcade owners are the only thieves in the room.

nothing like a sting in the tale - i had the £500 electrocoin magic bingo. some bright sparks figures out if you turn it off it doubled the bank. finally caught them wit £2400 in the bank!! (electrocoin`s mike dando refused to admit their was an emptier, but the new USB dongle arrived via courier the very next day)

i did a 4-reeler DOND original when they came out. (actually thats a lie, they were on the brink of being removed before my group found out), but anyway. i had already taken £200 out of the £250 hopper and the landlord walked passed and said "the only reason im letting you do it, is because you and the guy last night bunged me £20 too..." should of seen his face when i banked it for 20 and said there you go!

ha! thats exactly what i had. i bought jet set willy and couldnt run it. damn, that 32k was the size of half a bag of sugar !!!

jeez some of those took me back 30-35 years! thing on a spring was particularly awesome?? i had a rubber key 16k spectrum, then c64, then amiga500, b2000 and lastly a1200 in a tower 030 with squirrel cd rom etc. now a 8/16 core intel water cooled blah blah.. where will computers be if i last another 30 years?

there you go. fond memories of the local snooker club. read the guide written by chris Smedley on the CMA website, and dropped the jackpot within £20. Club roller coaster Jpm (1).zip

Morning guys, Does anybody have a club roller coaster `ready to drop` RAM file please? many thanks

well done !!! i used to by zzap64 - which became zzap64 Amiga. Could hall called it zzap64 mothercare based on the relevancy of both computers. C64 for me = fun. I had the 1541 floppy drive. simply make a notch and it was double sided! Action reply cartridge - ahh the memories are flooding back now.

* i followed on with a c64 and then saved heavy to get the Amiga 500 for £399 (bundled with shit i might add..) then a B2000 and on to the a1200 tower, 030 32GB ram, HD CDrom etc. etc. etc. basically, when i went to Pcs, it was so similar it was uncanny. now running a home built 8 core, water cooling etc. etc. next ? hmm

the rubber keyed zx spectrum with a mere 16k was my first computer. i forked out for the 32k ram pack so i could play jet set willy.

just wanted to report back, all good and working. i`ll try this method with the like of strike a light and also search what the machines from that era (like big game) are available. thank you for the guide, it was spot on sir!

Nice one Wearcity, thank you!

pook/wizard - ive noticed some slots (like the fortune numbers by wayfinder) that when you put a coin in (mfme6.1) you get an alarm. is that something i can correct, or down to the creators?

sadly i dont speak chav so cannot translate into plain English.

thats the one pook
