jackpotjon05 Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Hi everyone, hope you're well. Has this site changed around slightly since I last logged in? The reason I was getting confused is I used to go into a place called artists corner and found some downloads in there, but I cant see it any longer? To make it simple, where is the best place to find zip files, download them and play them please as im seeing so many subsections with different things in it, I do know where to look/not to look and finding it a bit overwhelming and confusing. Thanks for all your help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddy Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 The legacy section has all previously available layouts.. then there is a forum section to request the roms if you need them.. Not Retired from FME June 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because for example I just asked someone to kindly provide the link for ''doctor who'' for me and under downloads its not under bfm machines, so where is it please?

wearecity Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Click on downloads at the top of the screen, then on the right hand side you'll see legacy layouts. Click on Bell Fruit and then subcategory D and you'll find it under Dr Who Time Lord. In this case though, you're lucky because there is an uptodate Pook version for later emulators and you can get the complete layouts with roms, under the Dxcellent forums part of the website. In the search box at the top of screen, if you search for the word Doctor, you'll see the ninth thread shown is the one below. You'll find the download link at the bottom of the first post under the picture and thanks to list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOPE, did exactly what you said.....went into downloads, clicked on bell fruit and category D and the list is empty. Go in there yourself, nothing in there under doctor who and this is what I mean about going all way around the houses to find stuff....not easy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have spent days and days making this section as easy as possible to the point if it was any easier we would have to come round your house and install them ourselves for you...

wearecity Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 I do agree that it is findable by clicking around, I assume jon maybe didn't click on legacy layouts. But he may have and then not seen it after clicking on Bell Fruit and then Bell Fruit - D However, to make things a little easier, Is there a way of making the list appear after clicking on Bell Fruit - D. Or if not, maybe a change of description from download this file, to download a file. As unless you click on it, it does look like you'll be downloading a 367mb file, before you click on download this file and getting every Bell Fruit layout beginning with D. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippy Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 When people got fed up with me asking questions were it was actually quite easy to find I did a thing called "browse". Stopped asking stupid questions and got very familiar with the site. Yes, it is massive but it is here to be used and abused(just a figure of speech). Take a day out or so leave downloading and soak up some information after all knowledge is power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't do anything at my end.. but in all honesty as it stands it's mighty straight forward.

slasher Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 To be fair the "download file" thing confused me when I first went in the legacy layout section. I didn't realise that was how you'd bring up the list so thought I'd done something wrong and tried again. I then thought maybe it downloaded all D layouts so figured ok, and clicked download file... which of course brought up the list, so I do sort of get where he's coming from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah so what was the worst thing that could happen, you click it, it starts a big download, you cancel it... I mean it's hardly a life or death mouse click. 1 1 Not Retired from FME June 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if wording on the description could be added. Something like "click the download now button for a list of files starting with A" or similar? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackpotjon05 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 F*ck me, whats the matter with half of you on here? If maybe some people spoke simple English then certain members like me wouldn't get confused would they?

The problem is a lot of folk want it all, want it for free and want it NOW without any effort on their behalf. I can't see anywhere on here where the English is bad enough for you to have got what you wanted. It was explained a couple of times how to get what you wanted but apparently you needed a click by click set of explicit instructions... sorry but use some common sense or dear me even read the Newbie section which again has taken someone a fair few hours to compile. You only got 'slammed for it' (good English?) because you never thanked anyone for their help, you obviously never read any other thread relating to your point or managed to work anything else out for yourself, so yeah please fuck right off and fuck right off from DADsFME too since you asked a Q there because you did not like the answer you got here... 1 Not Retired from FME June 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackpotjon05 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 On a different subject and moving on...... Does anyone know why when I go into WinRAR why it says after 40 days I need to buy a license and how to get around this please? It keeps warning me and obviously need this program to enable games/downloads so can anyone advise please? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm buy a license? Not every program on the internet is free. This one is time limited although it will still work after 40 days, it just has a nag screen.

I think you'll find i'm always thanking people for their help if you are kind enough to take a look and I have also donated to thank members for their hard work. Im not even going to rise to your pathetic post because I cant be bothered. In regards to Dadsmfme, I thought why not ask the question on there, as I didn't know if the same members existed as they do on here, but again thanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
