This is a newer variation of Monopoly 3 Player by Mazooma. I'm not sure this can be emulated because of the video screen. There are some roms for this in the rom dat.
-
I'm not sure these Deal Or No Deal lo techs have been emulated. Can't find them in the legacy section. I suspect the roms are in the rom dat somewhere.

Do you mean the 3 player Rainbow riches with the wheel thing?
-
I think the machines are not saved because the file is read only. Look at the top of the window and if it says read only then it won't save.

I think it's best to sort all the gam files and fml files into individual folders as well. So you have a separate folder for each slave and then another folder for the top box.

Yeah I know what you mean! I remember there were rumours of an empty on the forums and then somehow we found out the method.

mate that game i worked out the empty myself as it would hold the wins after the cherries repeater feature after chage stake, few days later worked out how to do it all the time and went from there...
So did you have the empty before anybody else ever did?

That's the full archive of Cop the Lot roms. I don't know how sorted they are, you'll have to go through them.

I have all those Cop The Lot roms but I notice in the rom dat there are 2 roms for Snake Rattle N Roll that I don't have. They begin with srnr and could be an early program. Do you mind uploading the full archive of Snake Rattle N Roll roms please?

Yes. It's the Streak Walker feature art the bottom left of the top glass, earned by filling all the paws.
It's capped at £100 though, which is rather dull as it usually costs at least that.
Unless you can trap it from add again!

Yeah, I believe that's the case for sure as we have £15 versions of Lord of the Rings and I can't imagine they got a rechip? Maybe if you had a keyboard that read multiple key presses at once. I know some keyboards only do so many, be great to get to the bottom of this.
JP might be the guy to ask about this actually as he might know the inner working of how inputs are dealt with and if it's different to how the machine would read them etc.
J
LOTR did get a rechip but you would think a few of the versions we have do work for Super Hold. Also, my keyboard does not read multiple presses at once. An example is on a machine like DOND Perfect Deal where you need to hold all 3 hold buttons to respin the boxes for the matrix. Well my keyboard won't allow me to do this!
When I tried for the Super Hold trick on LOTR or Snakes, I changed the key inputs so they were far apart on the keyboard but that still didn't work.

I went through them last year. There are 2 sets of 1.1 on Scorpion 5 weirdly enough.

This was emptiable on super hold, they had that slipping bug like Snake Rattle n Roll and Lord of the Rings, I believe others from this era were also affected.
Don't think we have any that work in the emulator, though that could be the way that button inputs are read in mfme. Be nice to get a set that are known workers to try out for sure
I would have thought there would have been some BFM bits in Loo's massive resource releases.

It worked on Take Note as well. We actually have program 1.1 but it doesn't work for some reason. What you said about how button inputs are read might be the problem. We also have Cop The Lot 1.1 but they are Scorpion 5 roms and the layout is Scorpion 4.

Yes.
I got Royley screwed over by one of them in the Crystal Rooms Leicester Square.
I believe there's an emptier or similar for it, it took about £30 off me before it even gave me a board.
There are a few programs for this but it seems you did play this after it had been emptied.

Well definitely emulated.
Looks like the layout for it, is possibly from the batch released just after v9.4 was leaked.
The red lamps were an issue back then, as a sweep of the lamps, would wipe them out.
Such a well known machine back in the day, that seemed to be everywhere.
Definitely a modern makeover for this one would be great.
Another game from this era that definitely needs a makeover is Royle Family.

Very interesting topic and a variety of views, makes really good reading so thanks all.
I never knew any emptiers existed from the early 90s right through to mid 2000s, and then when I started hearing about the ways players would target certain machines and empty them just made me avoid those machines, because in 95% of places in and around blackpool it’s fair to say there were players doing these things so you’d have little or no Chance of winning on said machines. So I’d leave them well alone, and just watch out for a “new” machine.
i can remember sitting in a couple of pubs waiting for them to unload and set up a new machine off a wagon out of the plastic, before playing it for maybe the first time. That was the excitement for me rather than knowing how to empty it; learning how a new machine worked and what the features were and maybe, just maybe, walking away with a jackpot and experiencing the feeling that gave you! Still get that feeling when you get a jackpot, it’s just far, far less frequent with bigger jackpots and thus for me some of the attraction to play AWPs has gone as a result.
I still like playing quiz machines (appreciate they aren’t AWPs) but they are less and less apparent nowadays too.

There were empty tricks on Quiz Machines too. Connect 4, Caesars Palace and that phrase game spring to mind.

I had two mates with me who run off I was trying to stop one guy put his hands in my pocket while slapping and trying to instigate my escalation and he had a few more lumps with him, he pushed me back and I shattered the take away window but it didn’t break thank fook, ran behind the counter and grabbed a knife to try and make it look like I was not terrified and then the shop staff said I was the trouble maker and then the old bill turned up and I got nicked for criminal damage and affray and the one guy that was able to get a insignificant amount of money for the trouble was gone and then he came and said sorry to me on the pier the following day. Utter madness
All because you won on the fruit machine!

Daft question, but what exactly dictates whether or not a machine is emulatable (new word of the day!)? Is it the availability of the ROM? Imagining the day when Prince of Thieves or Chase the Rainbow are payable in an emulator but suspecting it’s years away!!
Those must be Scorpion 6 ,which is too new to emulate as people have mentioned. The Mega Streak on them is often just £100 but if it does go over, then it's a massive £120!

My one and only experience of being mugged by a human was in a kebab shop where I had just battered a take your pick. Was not a good experience
That must have been an inside job since it happened in the Kebab shop.
One Friday night I went in a pub for an Electrocoin. We had been in the pub a few times before for a Red Gaming machine. I bought a pint and made about £30 or £40 on the £70 jackpot machine. I heard the landlord say "He's already banned before", but I never was. Then he and a couple of locals told me to empty my pockets because they thought I had a device. If not they were going to call the cops. So I emptied my pockets to prove I had nothing on me. They started grabbing £1 coins so I grabbed as much as I could and left the place. In the end I left with less than I had before, as they managed to pilfer £52. I salvaged about £60.

There was an older Open The Box made by Ace. That Barcrest Open The Box could change to £25 Jackpot. Not the best Barcrest out there but it's not a terrible game.

Jumping Jack, such a simple idea for a game, with as simplest graphics, you'll ever see. But it had one of those, just one more go vibes about it.
I got pretty far on that. Every level it told a bit more to the story.

Never came across this game before. It reminds me of a another Spectrum game called Jumping Jack.

Hi, not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question, but there is a dond hotbox real fruit machine in my local pub. Is there a dx version available for this? Ive searched and i cant seem to find it. It would be nice to learn about this machine at home.
That's the Betcom Deal Or No Deal. The technology for this probably cannot be emulated.

What about winner takes all? Im sure those had a 5p/10p option?
I don't have any notes on that.... However I do for Rich & Famous which is almost a clone and the switches didn't change stakes. So I'm assuming they don't on Winner Takes All.

Deal Or No Deal
in Emulator Chat
Posted
I think it's because people don't realise we probably have the roms available. There are a few roms under the wrong Deal Or No Deal category and there seem to be too many roms under Deal Or No Deal Club which I suspect could be for these machines in the pics.
