Mate you do whatever you think is best as you are the dealer, I ain't going anywhere and know they will all be done at some point down the line, that is inevitable looking how far this has come from just doing the upscaling stuff you were on originally. There are several I don't like which you have integrated into your platform but still it is nice to look at 3D wise (shhh don't tell anyone). Lol there are quite a few DONDs layouts that fit those cabinets, so many DONDs it is unfortunately!

Zippy Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) No @serene02 he is doing Donds to punish me, I know he has been reading my posts/threads and says to himself "Let's piss that old tosspit Zippy off cause he hates Edmonds mug". Just seen your current post and you should have a bit of r+r and play some oldies, me personally gives focus especially on creating a layout. Could also give a new perspective and other fresh ideas. Believe I want your platform finished as much as you but looking into the future you still will have coding and updates to perform.

serene02 Posted August 25, 2021 Report Share Posted August 25, 2021 For Vectra, he doesn’t have the cab for those MPU4’s just yet. He builds the cabs from scratch in a 3D rendering package before he can incorporate them into his 3D realm. This is why we are seeing the S4 and S5 and early Barcrest machines first.

johnparker007 Posted August 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) A new patch is uploaded (when you next start Arcade Sim it will auto-update itself). Managed to get 6 of the 10 cherry picked layouts going, others have been put to one side for further converter work. New machines are: - DOND Box Clever £70 - DOND Desert Island Deal £100 - DOND Diamond £70 - DOND The Red Mist £100 - DOND The Red Mist Club £250 - Hot Shot £70 Think a couple of those silver covered win amount reels are misaligned on the DONDs - I have future tasks to do various improvements to reels in general so all that will get sorted then. Here's a quick pan around of the machines in attract mode: Some attract modes appear to have bugs (red letters on Happy Hour etc) - it's just due to the render data codec needing a little more work to add keyframes and keyframe-based seeking.

You've made quite a few DONDs! Re the misaligned reel: Think a couple of those silver covered win amount reels are misaligned on the DONDs - I have future tasks to do various improvements to reels in general so all that will get sorted then. Also there will be future work, as currently all reels are misaligned until the machines have been played - it's not an oversight, I just haven't had chance to do the work yet, so that the reels are on the positions they were last in when the machine was saved... there's many bugs, it'll all get fixed/implemented over time 56 minutes ago, woodsy said: There’s a monopoly version you might want to add..

Thanks very much for that, I'll add you to the list of layout artists who've given permission I did actually put your DOND Make Or Break £100 (re-decalled by @vectra666to higher payouts) to one side in my last batch of eclipse cabinet layouts to attempt, as I saw I'd not got permission from you yet Zippy: You can use any of Rainbows releases (both Bungle and myself) whenever you see fit but it is 50 quid per layout and we don't take cheques. Thanks bud, I do have you on the permissions sheet - once the 3d cabinet models are built that fit the layouts, they be in the queue to look at building (provided I can find the £50!)

vectra666 Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 If / when this is near complete will you be separating the machines in different arcades or sections as seams odd to have a old rat race next to a dond next to Andy Capp just a thought you could have a retro arcade with decor styled on the 80’s with machines upto early 90’s within a 90’s section arcade with machines fitting that era so £6 through to £15/£25 the modern arcade with machines £25 upto newer £100’s a casino type section with any clubber from the early ones we have to the £500’s/£1000 with blackjack and roulette tables make the sections zones like the crystal maze If not sections could you not make say four different arcades to match the era you want to play in?

So the player clicks on the relevant one For sure man This is just an initial 'test arcade'. The recent new machines are all together in that corner (so people can check out the new stuff), whilst the older ones are behind (with many duplicates), to test running lots of renderers (to keep an eye on performance when drawing so many machines). The Arcade Editor is currently disabled for end users, as I need to do various work - ultimately you'll be able to play other's arcades they have created in solo mode... and there'll likely be a default 'mega-arcade', separated into zones as you say, both playable offline and also online with other people. So yes, while it does indeed look like a mess right now, it will all change at some point down the line - this is purely a test environment for the moment for me to keep dumping machines into! 3 [ Arcade Simulator ] Pre-alpha installer: http://arcadesimulator.net | Known Issues: https://tinyurl.com/yz4uom2e | Donation info: https://tinyurl.com/yzvgl4xo [ Community Drive ] The drive: http://tinyurl.com/yckze665 [ Fruit Machine Database ] Initial google sheets (WIP): https://tinyurl.com/2c5znxzz [ MFME Launch ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/MFMELaunch [ Oasis ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/Oasis [ Sound ROM Editor ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/SoundRomEditor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
