Ze Frog Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Wow! Just downloaded this and damn it's good. Absolute game changer, what a future for MFME, this is truly next level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze Frog Posted March 22, 2023 Report Share Posted March 22, 2023 One question, will the arcade in future get to the point where the machine's are played via others, as in will each time we go to the arcade simulator have the machine in an unpredictable manner just like a real arcade? That would be the absolute pinnacle I reckon, the idea of each visit and the machine is in an entirely different state of play. To me that's the main downside of MFME so far, the fact the machine is always as it was left. Absolutely so impressed so far, really is one cool project. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davados Posted November 1, 2023 Report Share Posted November 1, 2023 It's been a while since I needed to come here. I got a new PC not so long ago as my old SSD died and decided that time to upgrade PC. Lost a lot of things on my old SSD and Arcade Simulator was one of them I can't seem to find a working link to get Arcade Simulator. Am I missing something very obvious? Can someone help me in the right direction please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows this: I can hopefully fix, I'm guessing @slasher rolled out an update as he is kindly hosting the Arcade Sim website for us. All the actual data for Arcade Sim is hosted here by the folks at Dif. Some great folks in the community, so I've not had to pay for hosting! Anyhoo, so for now, here is a link to the Installer exe from my dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dy9cgg2c71y5k91/Arcade Simulator Setup.exe?dl=0 Download that and run it, and everything should install fine from there. Remember in this 'legacy' version of Arcade Sim you'll need to also install MFME and update it from v20.0 to v20.1 (this won't be a requirement later, although dev of the open source successor Oasis is on hold due to health). Hopefully that should all work for you, and you'll be back Arcade Simulating again!

Ok I've copied a few files around on the FTP server, and tested on a 'remote browser' - I think it is now fixed, though it may not appear fixed until local browser caches are cleared: So you may see the same error you saw before, but over time, as local browser caches are cleared, hopefully it will look like this again (and allow for downloading of the Setup exe) 6 [ 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...
Graham the goldfish Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Well, my new laptop just arrived. It has a 4070 graphics chip, albeit the mobile version obviously. I've just uninstalled some cruft and got the essentials on it at the moment, amongst them MFME and arcade simulator. I just want to say how incredible arcade simulator looks on it. It's really something to behold! I can't wait to have an arcade with a few of the classic maygays and JPM's in it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad to hear that Arcade Sim qualifies as an essential! It's going to be a while before 'arcade sim 2' is developed (as part of the new Oasis suite), but that will allow others to build and improve the fruit machines (rather than just me in this initial version), so the long run that will have many more... 1 [ 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...
Graham the goldfish Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 It definitely is essential. W11 laptop, off came the mcafee virus and visual studio, virtual box, mfme and arcade simulator have been installed. I'm not sure my dev experience is in the right area, but perhaps I can help things a long a little at some point.
