From1980..

Hi all.on Sunday I'm collecting a small jukebox,size of a 60ss dansette.holds 40 records and selects both sides with small or large centres.ive done several of these in the past.its a 3 hour drive each way.i will post pics when I get home and of course a thread on restoring it.keep watching

Evening guys, thanka for the replies, I'm sorted now, believe it or not it was me being thick. It turns out that if the connector that connects the mpu to the auxiliary lamp driver board is not connected then the programme wont boot, no alarms or nothing. Just blank! I was tunnel visioned by putting other cards in and watching them boot fine with just the alpha and reels connected. Oh well, one for the learning curve I suppose 😂

Here is a DX of one of my favourite machines ever.... Monte Carlo or Bust. Thanks to Richy1976 for the original photos and Wizard for MFMEv5. MONTECARLO.zip

Here is one of my favourite machines of all time. A fantastic late system 80 machine from Jpm. Due to it being a late machine it combines most of the things seen on earlier system 80 machines but with the added bonus of a 4th feature Superhold. That feature is rarely useful but does add an extra dimension to the game. The Win Streak can be quite decent and the nudges often hold over often with interest probably down to the fact that both bells and pears are 40p. The Silverpot can fill very quickly when it wants to. It also has a change feature option aswell(shortcut E) which wasnt on any other Jpm System 80 machine. It really is a lovely machine to play. This version is 5p play with £3 token jackpot but it was also done on 5p £1.50 cash. I also remember back in the day playing a 5p play £2 version. I think there was also a 10p £4 version called Goldenpot. Very big thanks go to Steve Lancett and Alan(Roadrunner) for the roms and Wizard for the emulator. Hope you enjoy Alex. sys80silverpot.rar

Ok think i've gone as far as i can with this layout,so i've decided to release it.There seems to be alot of requests for this so i've knocked a dx up using multiple photo's and some redrawing in places,this has took an age as i was struggling with the colours of some lamps which just wouldn't lamp right. Big thanks to johnny afc for the pics of his machine,richy for the images he pmed me,johnny again for his classic and wizard for the new mfme 5x,all short cuts are as usual,some people mentioned some slight faults with the classic but i've tested everything and it all works fine,enjoy,think this is one of the hardest layouts iv'e ever done using photo's.

WARNING THIS MACHINE LAYOUT CONTAINS FLASHING LIGHTS WITHIN THE SIDE ART IN ATTRACT MODE!!! I know this was released approx 10 days back via fruit-emu, but as i already cleaned and started lighting the flyer prior to that release i thought i'd carry on with my own version. Thanks Goto Andy-1 for his classic's and the Dx prior to this, and his permission to allow me to carry on with this version. To Richy1976 for the flyer he sent me. This layout uses the same safe cracker button and the same way of doing it as its predecessor. The main button is the "collect hidden feature" button and the two arrows either side are the Left/Right rotate, although it doesn,t appear to work that well. If you do have two choices luckily it'll flash the relevant colours so you'll just have to collect what you want when it flashes first time, the button i made isn.t the original its just something i styled around the image i had. Shortcuts are- Start = Spacebar Transfer = T (But doesn't work on this machine due to the notey only gives change!!!) Exchange, for feature board/hidden features = E Holds = 1,2,3 Hi = 2, Lo = 3 Collect = C Cancel = ` Safecracker button = S Left = < , Right = > . The Notey does work but only gives change the shortcuts are the usual 7,8,& 9 £££'s in = 0 That was my 5th Anniversary release, still can,t believe its been that long since i started creating layouts and i still enjoy doing what i do long may it continue!!! Enjoy and Happy Gaming!!!!!! Cops n Robbers Safe Cracker £25 Wdx.zip

Yes, that was the Ace Coin 100 Series.

Well 1977 was electro,mpu machines started in 1980-81 i think.My warlord is 1981 and right on the changeover border.Its electronic but has e/m reels.Like hot dog 1979,last of bfm electros before mpu came in.Or am i wrong

At the moment,The only early adverts with pic I can find are from 1974 showing Gemini and Kaleidoscope However I have found advertisements in 1976 with a number of listed used Barcrest's. King 40 Crackerjack Spellbound Stuntman Winnerama Solitaire Contrasts Masquerade Extravaganza

Well finally managed to get a layout finished off,here we have happy campers from extreme gaming. This is a decent game with some corny sound samples,the dx is made from photo's parts of a different flyer and a little redrawing.It's never gonna look like a work of art as the source wasn't great,still struggling to find any decent mpu 5 extreme reel symbols so had to use the ones i knocked up from pics.Short cuts are as usual then H for keep on camping button,S to spin round the super board,N for nudge shuffles and T for cash pot,Thanks to wizard for the new mfme emu,enjoy.

Here we have a classic layout of a Ace classic - Double your Money. It's one of Ace's 5 reelers and tends to play a good fun game, the idea is to light the letters W I N by means of the letters on the middle 3 reels. When this is done you get to access the feature board. Also getting a matching pair of symbols next to each other from left to right awards a 40p win. When you get a win on the reels there is a chance to double, triple, quadruple your win depending on how many times it decides to let you hold the win. Set on a fun £4.80jp and 20p play Note;- when you insert £1 into the machine, the credit will display 10 but every spin of the reels deducts 2 credits - it's actually taking 20p from your credit, hence £1 = 5 plays. Thanks goto;- Wizard for mfme 5.x The Rom provider Keyboard Shortcuts 0 or Num Pad 0 - Insert £1 1,2,3,4,5 - Hold C - Collect/Cancel S - Shuffle Enjoy Double Your Money.zip

nope I never did get a V8 one in the end
