  13. Examples of anti-stat / anti-force gameplay?

    in Emulator Chat

    Posted · Edited by logopolis

    I know the game Cash Explosion. It's the early version of Cash On The Lash basically. Never tried to force it for the 5 sticks of dynamite. One of the red features on Cash On The Lash is just a skillstop on the Cash On The Lash letters. If you hit On The in the middle, then I believe it automatically does the harder speeds for you up to jackpot. Not sure if this is on Cash Explosion, can't remember.

  15. Temple Of Treasure (Barcrest) - Any earlier ROMs than 0.5 available?

    Hi folks, do we have anything earlier than 0.5 available for this? I was looking at the CMA Archive and it's talking about a rechip on 0.3 that removed the red ToT force and made the streak a lot more random, which says to me we'd need 0.2 (at least) for ROMs that responded to this playstyle.

    Tommy's DX is running 0.5K (arcade) ROMs.

    Reason I ask is it's one I want to do a video for. I can still do the video with the ROMs we have but it'd be more of a tell don't show :) 

    Also, were knockbacks a thing on the earlier ROMs for this, or was it just wait until it finally offered a red ToT?

    Cheers!

    This is a bit complicated because we have lots of different programs.

    The DX will be running TOTR 0.5 which is a £5 and £15 program. We do have TOTR 0.4 £5 and £15 which can run with no problem in that DX.

    There is also TOT2 0.2 and TOT2 0.3 which are both £5 and £15 program but if you try and run it in the DX then all the lamps are wrong. 

    Then we have T1TR 0.1 which switches to £25 so this is obviously a later program.

    Finally we have T1TR 1.0 and T2TR 1.0 which switch to £25 so these are later programs.

  16. Barcrests in MFME - behaviour on "taxi" bonuses

    in The Laboratory

    Either my memory is completely shot, or something weird is happening under emulation (and possibly only to me).

    On almost every Barcrest machine, the 'taxi' bonus often (but not always) behaves in an odd way, in that when it stops going in one direction and reverses, it flips off that last square really quickly.

    Does anyone else see this?  It didn't used to be like this on the actual machines, did it?  

    I'm not sure but there was an issue with the shortcut key for the Mr. Barcrest button on some machines. I think it was something to do with the shortcut B or M. Can't remember exactly.

  20. Are any of the new, pub based machines worth playing? iPub etc?

    Pretty much as the title says really.  Haven't played anything in many a year but whilst socially in the pub, bemoaninng the Barcarest machines that used to be in the place of the iPubs they have everywhere, I was wondering whether any were worth playing these days and is there somewhere useful to get information on them?

     

    Apologies in advance if this sort of question is frowned upon but do bear in mind this was posted in the Newbies section for a reason :)

    Best to play them on reset. Other than that the games don't really get much play and will always have the same last win them for weeks.
