cliffc Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hi To dontate is easy if you look on the right hand side of the portal home page there is a section there where you can make your donation it defaults to £10 but you can pick any amount above this if you want to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearecity Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 Under downloads you'll see legacy layouts. https://www.desertislandfruits.com/forum/index.php?/files/category/37-legacy-layouts/ Click on the manufacture of the machine, then if necessary click on the section it will be in, I.E. A-E for layouts titled A-E. Then click on download this file, it will then take you to the list of machines and just select which one you want. It will download several version, if several are available. Then when you load them into the emulator, the emulator, will automatically find the roms needed to run the layout. The layout gallery, is the place to look, if you can't remember a name of a machine, just sort them by caption, to sort them by alphabetical order. https://www.desertislandfruits.com/forum/index.php?/gallery/category/5-mfme-layouts/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
