I'm still new to the design game. Via my account page, I can easily see what content I've done layout wise both at fruit-emu and here. I just filter my files download content. (I see I'm on 30 layouts here) I do keep a copy of my layouts but over a few drives, due to changing computers and using 3 different machines for FME. One day I might be bothered to compile them in one folder. But I don't generally play any of my layouts anyway, because they are classics and I don't play classics. Also other members archive everything so even hard drive crashes and or websites going offline, I know someone will have them.

Now I've looked, I see you right click on the yellow area to browse for a picture on your PC. The folders are default backdrops and default tiles and in the preferences under file, preferences, there are options to have backdrops and tiles load automatically with every layout. Plus if someone puts one on a layout, you don't like, then override layout tiles/backdrops will stop it from appearing when loading a layout.

This can be done very simply by the user as per the talk in this thread, it was introduced in v19 of the emulator onwards. https://www.desertislandfruits.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2433-mfme-beta-testers-required/page/3/&tab=comments#comment-16103 Matt Brown, In short, click on design, then edit mode, then right click not on the machine picture itself, but on a blank area to the side of it and choose properties to bring up the background properties. You then see the backdrop box and you can browse to a picture and have it behind the machine, such as Reg's vegas pics. Some default ones are also available, or you could use your own pictures. As you can see there's a tiled option or just have it cover the whole background with one picture, you can also have several pictures and have it choose a random one each time the layout opens. You will find in the MFME v20 installation folder, the folder where you store the images. v20 isn't available to me, right now, so can't tell you the exact name of the folder, but might be default backdrops or similar.

Pinball Fever Yes again, BUT..this time with the correct sounds (even though they still have a Pinball Wizard vibe about them). Also it's Pooks/Dadsfme version, which was my preferred version and I finally got to convert, via the v2 conversion tool in conjunction with MFME v1.1, v5.1, v6.1. Key shortcuts are in the notes and as ever I take no credit for the layout, but have made some alterations to take advantage of MFME features not available in JPEMU. It will work on V6.1, but haven't been able to test it on v20.1, but should work. Pinball Fever.zip

Thanks for letting us know. Happy Heavenly Birthday Chris. I hope you are looking down and seeing the fantastic ways, your emulator is being used and utilised to spread its word even further.

Hi. Yes V20.1, is only on Windows 10. If you use v6.1, then you will not be able to play anything released in the past 18 months (and there has been a large amount of layouts in that time). Also anything produced in the future, won't be playable on v6.1. In short, anything produced in emulators after v6.1, will not work in v6.1. That's just the tip of the iceberg, MFME 20.1, is superior in many ways to v6.1. I do have Windows 10, but I'm still using a Windows 8.1.1 laptop also, which like yours, didn't like me upgrading it to Windows 10, the 3 times I tried it.

Here's one, I can't find on MFME, but was mentioned earlier in the thread. Pinball Fever by Crystal Leisure. As usual with me, there's a story behind the conversion lol. There are 3 DX's available for JPEMU. None of them have the correct sound roms, so I don't think they are available. This one uses Pinball Wizard sounds, the other two, Arcadia sounds. Pooks DX, converts, but MFME v5.1, throws up one of those nasty 0xx00000000 errors, when trying to load it in. A 1024, by Hurtland, which converts, loads up, but obviously is pretty small (could be done/upload if anyone does want it). A 1280 by RB, with pretty decent artwork (but with a caveat). I've gone with the RB one here, so all credit goes to him, I merely went through the pain of converting it. The caveat, is the cabinet appears to be from a Spanish JPM machine, so although not difficult to work out, I've moved the collect to the green button and the cancel button is just cancel. All the usual keyboard shortcuts can be used anyway. Overall if sound roms are available, I reckon a very good modern DX could probably be made here. Albeit, the machine is pretty terrible, not helped by the £25 jackpot, being far too big. Pinball Fever - JPEMU conversion.zip
