Fruitemu seems to be down.
According to AI.
The Missing Audio: Historical community logs note that while the game logic can be emulated, the BFMulator layout was archived without working sounds, which was common for certain MDM/Bell-Fruit era ROM dumps from that time.

Would this one be possible to do emulation of? It uses an LCD screen in the middle apparently and it might run on Electrocoin's hitech hardware.Used to play that in The Crystal Rooms Leicester Square.
Probably the missing Phoenix Tech Electrocoin machines and the Carry On/Road Riot machines by PCP are my most wanted machine, not emulated.

Very expensive, but I guess it's no different to buying a cabinet with Mame and/or other emulators on it.
I wouldn't mind a cabinet myself (but not at that price), but I simply don't have the room for even a bartop type cabinet, let alone something like this.

It would be great to see an emulator, that supports any of the techs from the 1970s-2014 that are missing from MFME.
TBH, nothing will replace MFME, unless all the techs it supports are supported by a new emulator and every single layout, that exist for it, can be converted to it, all at the same time, by scanning the end users layout directories.

I too, wasn't keen on layouts being blacklisted, but had to respect Wizards decision, as afterall, it's his emulator. Also, originally, the blacklisted layout list was much bigger, but after some layout designers complained, whatever was needed to be done, was, so the blacklisted layout list, was much reduced.
Some people have more blacklisted layouts than others, because they have downloaded or bought layouts modified by Slotz. Not that I'm saying it's their fault, as in most cases I suspect they had no idea.
Some things you can try.
1/ Download the layout from the legacy section here, some will work, because it's not a version, modified and claimed by Slotz. In some cases, the mods applied by Slotz, weren't that much, so you might be missing out on not having in and output sounds, having an old style alpha or unneeded 7 segs overlays for instance, all stuff that aren't essential and can be altered by users themselves.
2/ Slotz uploaded versions of some of his layouts, that will work. He uploaded them to this site as well, in a thread, which I can't find, but maybe you can.
3/ Download an alternative layout from the legacy section. Many alternative layouts are still very decent and function 100% the same.

Finally have some games running - but, after dropping folders into MFME v.20.1, it's weird that so many are "Not Running" games.
Is there a list of machines that do have working emulation and those who are emulated, but dont work, anywhere?
Cheers!
99.9% of machines work.
If you've downloaded machines from the archived layout section and run the game manager scan and it's showing non runners, try to load via the file, load game option first.
Then it will download the roms for the machine layout.
It's possible also that you haven't got a fully working version of V20.1, so it will only load layouts designed for earlier MFME emulators.
You need to post some more details, such as a layout that doesn't work and the error you're getting.

As per the numerous posts about it, the links have been removed from this site to the emulators and any games that may run on them. This is due to, having them available, could lead to this site having to close down.

hello every one on this site i am sorry about asking you for things i have got depresson and anxiety my mom past away last year 2025 and i have learning difficulties and some times i get upset about things that why i went to tell every one on site that why i like playing machine thay carne me down i sometimes i have brake down that why i do something like playing machines
I'm sorry to hear about your mum. We all do things to escape difficult times in life, fruit machine emulation has got quite a few of us, through difficult times.
But please try to understand what is being said to you on here and understand that because of issues, that could even prevent this site from existing in the future, there's no more links to games for the video fruit machine emulators on these forums.
Have you tried https://slotslaunch.com/ where you can play a lot of video slots for free, including many found in UK town arcades. Just do a search in the box at the top of the page, on the slotslaunch site.

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.
I think they are coming across as if they have learning difficulties.
But perhaps they need some modding restrictions when they attempt to post.

I went into Genting in Blackpool last night with a mate who I'm visiting. As I don't normally gamble now, we went to watch the footy and have a drink.
They had a few slots that were on the emulators, so I guess we are still playing current slots.
As an aside, it's been a few years since I've been in, so I had a surprise £86 in e-cash I wasn't expecting. So decided to play and that was going to be my stake at 50p spins.
Early on, I got the feature on Book of RA and on the same spin a £50 win off 4 of the Indiana Jones looking bloke. Got him in the feature as well but only got £10 off him.
Few spins in the slot with the lady where you have to get 3 or more pink balls or whatever they are, nothing back so left with a small profit.

Hi all, Wonder if you could suggest what I'm doing wrong? I've downloaded the latest v20 and an update box pops up telling me to update to v20.1 but I get this message when trying. (I've tried using admin privileges, compatibility, reinstalling, closing the MFME process before I pressed update, but that closes everything...)
If I ignore and try load a layout I get this;
Is there a standalone 20.1 version? Or thoughts?
I'll private message you shortly, a version already updated.
It's happened to a few members and normally when someone sends them an already updated version it works.
Not sure why it happens.

Pinball Lizard works fine.
Apart from the obvious positioning the lamps and sorting out the reels, I just need to see what if anything the Blue and Red lamps underneath the Repeat arrows do.
I thought it might be when you fill the name up, but it isn't, possibly one of the features uses them. (EDIT....I see Komodo Cash uses them)
@andy-1 not sure, how far you've got with your WIP. Can send what I've done so far to you, if you want.

You have gone down a rabbit hole from which you will emerge poorer but with many handhelds.Its starts with one then you need more .Apparently I have to many boxes from China.I of course disagree and can make a case as to why I need each and everyone.I would buy sell and then upgrade but lately ebay has become difficult so I can't buy on the basis that I will be able to sell it.Anyway from the android end we are more or less at endgame with elite gen 3 and 5.Windows handhelds are becoming crazy expensive and you still don't get more than a couple of hours.
Yep easy to get sucked in.
I've had 5 Android devices in about 10 years.
Last 3, I had a GPD XD for ages. Then a Retroid Pocket 4, which I still have and use and now a AYN Thor, which is a step up from the others.
Unless the Thor breaks, I don't see me getting another one for a good few years.

I did look at this but couldn't get it into test mode, done my head in so put it on the back burner and focused on Pinball Lizard instead.
Good luck with it and hopefully you get it figured out.
I'm looking at Pinball Lizard as well. Hopefully one of us can get it released.
To get Buffalo in test, put 2 and 24 in the service and cash doors and put a zero in the test 2 box.
Then open one of the doors, let it do its usual open door stuff initialisation, then click test.

The best way I would say, is with the machine open, click on configuration.
At the bottom of that screen is a rating box, just put a number 5.
Then in the game manager screen, just click on the rating column and it will put all the 5 star machines at the top. So you could rate all machines and having them from best to worse.

I got an AYN Thor earlier this year, as my new on the go emulation device.
Put ES-DE and the companion to it as a front end.

It's been discussed a few times, but just looking at this getting this unemulated Red Gaming Machine done.
I've knocked up a quick layout, but it appears to come with 1 possibly 2 extra reels (which may or may not be belt reels). One contains amounts which add to the Cash underneath the machine name. Also linked I believe are the Gold/Silver/Bronze Val lamps.
It could be like Bling Bling Bling and have a strange belt reel/s
Looking at the layout so far, anyone have an idea as to what it might be a clone of?
All lamps and buttons have been identified and it could be a beta release, as it does function correctly, with the exception of knowing what the extra reel/s do.

Where did you download them?
You can't just load roms into the emulator and play the machine.
There needs to be a visual representation of the machine I.E a layout created for them, either using real machine graphics or classic squares and circles etc...
The reels need to be created/inserted and the configuration set so the emulator knows what stake, jackpot, type of coin mech and meters amongst other things are fitted in the machine etc.

hi everyone, have no idea how this all works. just logged in & can not see my post from yesterday. if anyone can help please do. also feel free to point me in the right direction to workout how to navigate around this place. thanks
Once you get the 4 rep points, you leave newbie status and introductory posts are normally removed.
You have 4 rep points, so can now get properly started.

Glad it worked, been a long while since I had to do it.
Some other useful things, you can move the whole top box and slaves together, by holding down the shift key and left mouse button and drag the layout.
You can edit the size of the slaves by clicking on them, then pressing ESC and go into design. When finished resizing them, click on design again, then press F1 to get rid of the menu bar.
Alt U, will unlink the slaves from the top box.
So if you always want just one slave open with the top box, then Alt U, to unlink everything. Then close the slave/s you never want opening by clicking on them, then push ESC and close the slave and leave just the ones you want open next time and beyond. Then link the top box with that slave/s left, by doing Alt L again, then Alt S to save.
When you've finished playing Ctrl Q to close top box and slaves.
Then when you open the top box next time, just the slave/s you want open should load.
For instance in the picture below, here's Party Fruits being played, with just slaves 1 and 3 present, as I did the above to stop slave 2 being loaded.

I wonder if it's a Windows 11 thing, because you did say Windows 10 and hopefully Windows 11 for those who have it.

When I open up the program, the mouse cursor doesn't appear at all, so I can't click on anything.

Ah ha my friend, you need this option...
...enable that, click on the name on the top left and you are free !But how can you enable that, when the mouse/keyboard doesn't do anything, so you can't get into any options?
