All of them really, they all have their own merits. Don't forget to check out the legacy section as well which has a massive library of stuff. What era was your time for playing?

Version 1.0.0

Was going to be a Halloween release, but releasing now as will probably be busy around that time with other projects. Really interesting one this, has barcode as well as the pentagram on reel 2, I am guessing this was another like Fight Night where the value could be extracted that earlier than it might have been ready. Was created by feeding the grainy flyer we have through GPT in small sections, it's not 100% accurate, Woodsy's layout is more true to the original. If anyone knows more about the barcode, please share in the comments, I have had it twice, first feature was crap, and second time I pressed start by accident and so it didn't award. Massive thanks to; @wearecity and @woodsy for the classic and DX respectively. @Ginge for play testing and error spotting. @Wizard for the miracle of MFME.- 9 comments

If anyone comes across some 2p machines in legacy section that could do with a redo, send it across to me in a pm and I'll put it on the 'to do' list. Love a 2p machine.

Which layout is it? Or is it happening across all layouts?

Another rework. Two versions, one cash and one token. - Improved reflections. - New reels. - Clearer image. Massive thanks to: @WonkySausage for checking meters and providing alternate ROM set. @Wizard for the magic of MFME. The token version, when you press zero, it inputs a £1 but spits 50p out in change. That's how the ROM's are so its not broken. -

Which Bar-X version would give 3 bars if you didn't hold 3 Xs?
Ze Frog replied to insx72's topic in Emulator Chat
Pretty sure you are right, seems to remember other machines besides Bar X's with the 'Chuzzy' kit also sometimes rolling in a higher win for not holding a lower win. Wasn't there one as well where it would streak and the idea was to not hold any win regardless as it would keep rolling them in or awarding nudges to wins. -
That's possible I guess, but still.

Will you give it a rest already. It's been made perfectly clear that the distribution of the b.pak's is forbidden due to a cease and disist. You are really coming across as an industry mole by trying to constantly get people to share something which will either cause themselves trouble or the forum.
-
It's largely due to copyright and the fact that the b.pak's could be reversed engineered or downloaded and added to existing machines in the wild by-passing the need to pay for a dongle or whatever is needed for update. Free to play online is different, because although you have access to the game, you don't have access to the actual code and so it is controlled with no worry of loss to the companies involved.
-
No, keep them. Just don't share or distribute as it could potentially fall back onto the creators or people who have been named in this thread.

Exactly. This whole thread is an embarrassment, I can't believe what I'm seeing. It could have all existed in the shadows and all would have been fine, but no, everyone decided they had to publicly announce every source and every potential site so that the companies in question have a really clear idea of everything. I sure hope none of the members here work for MI5 or similar. All it took was for the established members who are trusted and been around for a set time to be sent a private PM, told to keep quiet and not advertised, then newer members could have been brought into the fold very carefully once they had been seen in the community and were a known quantity. As it stands now, it's a shit show where this thread has scuppered everything. I feel so sorry for the creators, because ultimately the stupidity on display in this thread is ultimately going to be the death knell for the digital stuff for sure, but if any of these companies feel like this site is a threat or they own rights to any older I.P...well, then the whole scene is toast. People can forget Discord servers, that's a total waste of effort now we have all told whoever is watching and named names.

One thing reading through this thread... It may be a good idea to not ask for invites, naming platforms openly, and tagging certain members for invites, it's clear that someone from/or affiliated with one of the companies involved has infiltrated the site. If people want to find out information it's probably best to just message members who you know and trust, and anyone new and not really a known quantity, well no offence but they will have to earn their stripes and the trust of those with the knowledge. Multiple posts mentioning a certain platform is only going to kill that off pretty sharpish and draw attention more in the direction of the effected emulators and their creators, which will lead to even any slight chance of future progress being well and truly snuffed out.And for god's sakes, don't do any videos or post anything with anything leading to the source. There needs to be a closed group somewhere, and it needs to be largely secret. The platform mentioned repeatedly on here is already a risk now because of it being talked about willy nilly. And another thing, if a new forum is created elsewhere, it may be wise to use different screen names as well so that there is a level of obscurity where the companies can't point back to here and point out that it's linked to this site, even if just by affiliation of the members, because that is all it will take.

Man that sucks, after all that effort. I guessing the issue is probably because of a lot of arcades maybe still running these older games. I mean at £15,000 - £20,000 outlay, I'd imagine an arcade operator would run these things to the absolute death. Fruit machines back in the day would mostly get switched out for new for the most part, but some of the more expensive stuff like fancy pushers or multiplayer arcade games would usually get a longer lease of life because of costing significantly more. Or the industry has seen things get discovered by the community and are concerned about something coming to light. Probably the former though really, especially as £500 jackpot machines are still just as relevant now as when they first saw light say 20 year's ago or even more now.

'Here's the moment you've been waiting for!' lol, well I have at least. This has been on my bucket list MFME wise for a while. Absolute pinnacle of Barcrest in the particular era if you ask me, absolute banger. What is extra impressive is this is MPU4, really must have been on the outer limit's of that tech for sure. Being MPU4 means the coin sounds on payout are the ones for MPU4, which is really the older bleepy bleepy stuff mostly, so they do seem a little odd, but it works. The £15 version is good except the £10 note should be £15, but although I mocked up a £15 it just didn't look quite good enough, so I left the £10 in place. Pretty minor really, in an arcade they may have even been like that on occasion. Made possible by Pook supplying some great base art to work from, so very much appreciated for that. Will slow down a bit now, need to focus on some other thing's. Next up is an MDM machine, possibly two if I can manage to sort out something from the images for Smokey and The Bandit that Infection has in his section, very much another on the need to do list. Massive thank's to: @Pook for the great starting image and his DX which I used for lamp number's as the classic wasn't all in the right place. @dec1962 for providing additional resource's in the WIP thread. @Wizard for the MFME miracle.- 9 comments

An MPS2 based 2p, £2 jackpot machine from the 1988 British seaside for you. Special thanks to; @MarieKarve for the classic. @vectra666 for assisting with faults and config settings etc. @Wizard for MFME. @spa for the ROM's. @infection and @johnparker007 for resources section. @Pook for the reel's? There was a super high resolution version in the community drive. And thankyou to the community in general. Also a note for other creator's, if I ever do a layout and you want to have a go at it, feel free to do so. Personally I like playing different version's of layout's and enjoy the variety of different styles and interpretations. -

Not my era, but being based on a franchise and pop culture I felt the need to do this one, not actually a bad game as £70 machines go, some features are pretty OK. Images were a bit of a mess in regards to streaking and bits just being a bit jank, but think I have managed to sort out the worst of that and it's kind of passable. Have filed under Electrocoin as Blueprint doesn't have a section, I think this was likely their only reel based game and is effectively an Electrocoin anyway really, very similar in way's to Dart's Marathon. I feel the game play is kind of different enough though, only disappointing thing really is the fact that after paying for the license to use The Lone Ranger there could have been more sound snippet's used if you ask me. Massive thanks to; @Matty.n for the classic and unlocked version. @infection for assisting with images. @Wizard as always for the miracle of MFME. This layout has multiple coin inputs and all the notes functional, so anti-stat shouldn't be an issue if you vary the input's. Control's are in the notes for all of that. Also this was finished yesterday early evening, but have spent time last night play testing to make sure all is good, lol, and checked the file for .gam file so no repeat of last release. Next up is PCP Hit Money. Looking to do Barcrest's Cash Lines as well if anyone has any resources beyond a rather grainy flyer. -
Is there a way to mark a slot as "favourite"?
Ze Frog replied to linjiaqi's topic in Newbies Help Area
I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think you can favourite them. I just have a special folder on desktop for my favourite releases. -

Last one for a while as will be busy again from next week. As I have really taken a liking to the older machines, was waiting for images to use to remake this one, and luckily eBay came through. Massive thanks to; @Wizard for the magic of emulation. @Andy Tutton and @pete_w for the classic. @vectra666 @Ginge @woodsy @dad @Pook @wearecity @Mort and all the other's who have taught me over time to be able to create these layout's. Controls are in notes.- 7 comments
