andy-1 Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 For all newer layouts you will need MFME 20.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearecity Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) The quick answer is yes, get v20.1 and everything will work, albeit, a tiny amount of layouts may have some bugs. The more detailed explanation. Basically layouts are not backwards compatible. So if something is created in v20.1, it will only work in v20.1. If something is created in v6.1, it will work in V19.8 and v20.1 also. If created in V19.8 it will work in V19.8 and v20.1. If you have got some layouts produced before November 2016, then you need to do a simple conversion process. Layouts pre November 2016 are in .dat format. Anything after is in .fml format. If the layout is in .dat format, it will need converting to work in v6.1 and later versions. .dat format layouts, will need to be loaded into V5.1 and then when you close them and say yes to save, then they will work in v6.1 onwards. Everything here is already in .fml format. Edited December 30, 2022 by wearecity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vectra666 Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 You actually download v20 which then you update to v20.1 by simply searching for updates within the emulator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
