Great work. Really look forward to these updates. Real talent you have, not just spray cans and trim on this one! Well done

Not been doing much on the machine this due to waiting for the glass frames. They arrived back today but they never polished the scratches out prior to anodising! anyway it was free so I will send them back after xmas. I wanted to carry on with the build so I have started assembly of wiring and frame. I have also put some iron on edging on the front door and on the front frame near coin mech. I will do the other areas later. just a couple more pics. Thanks for following this build and hope you all have a great Christmas.

Thought I'd share this with you all. A friend of mine has created a Snappy Viper game on his zx spectrum. Its quite amusing and clever how he did this Hope you can get to watch this and leave a comment for him. Cheers.

Yeah ok seeing that it's almost xmas and you are a daft old codger(like me) 😋 GOLDEN SHOT 2.zip

Errr! it was you John just checked my messages  Hi Ronnie. Got it fine thanks. Not tried it yet though   Cheers  John

I sold a scorpion FTU to player some years ago, I think it had roms

Superb bit of work Andrew. I try to steer clear of Scorp 1 repairs but would love to see what the tester actually does.

Many thanks for this.

The Bolton one, Club Nudger, is now in my workshop. I've even 'nudged-in' a win; the aforementioned crown on centre reel that pays 5p, no less! I'm impressed. No 'hold' and one 'nudge'. I wonder if the Carnoustie 3-way win is for sale? No point having ONE of ANYTHING, in my book!

Thank you for this fantastic layout.

Some more older ones I did

All roms are useful to us emulation guys, always on the look out for rare or early rom versions, and various sound roms, i'm hoping bfm's shogun will turn up one day thanks for the offer, if you can't dump them i'm sure others will gladly help you out thankyou to @-Crest- to for his uploads

I do still have the scorpion 1 test rig, and after reviving some great help from someone it had prompted me to have another look into this, what I discovered was I believe the program card I was using was f*cked and I had no idea!! So on some very good advice and program card identification I found I had a very sorry looking system85 card which is known to work on this rig!! yes it’s in one hell of a state!!! Very corroded, nothing rotted through but just in a not useable state! Gold coated pins were badly corroded too!! It’s really fit for the bin!!! so after finding the original connector is STILL available I set about the refurb and ordered some the solder on it was dreadful!! Very stinky of the usual rot and corrosion smell when heated, eventually the solder was persuaded to be removed and the pads were all re-tinned with fresh solder and solder wicked! the chip was fine so it also was cleaned, re-tinned and tested again! ( yes I know it’s a similar process to how the Chinese fakers clean the pins up, but I do it far more kindly than they do) around 6pm the new connectors arrived from Farnell!! Yes exactly the same part number so identical specifications to the original DIN connector! Its looking really good now!! to cap it all parts cost less than a fiver! Much cheaper than anything second hand on eBay and it’s all new!! I really appreciate the help one member on here has given me! Without your help recently I would not have touched this project at all at this time, possibly never! So Thankyou so much!! this whole test unit could live again!!

Going by the manual they should be DIN 41612 type C connectors. RS, Farnell etc.

2 ways 1. is by using a hex editor, get the free version on google search. 2. in the emu, debug/main board, mem viewer like this.

Yes saw this guy too .his name is dominic seims. You can message him on messenger as he is on fb too .

I just had to do this one. thanks to loo for the roms.

It’s the later Project Coin version from the late 1990’s. In the Vegas Casino cab or whatever they were called. Same cab as 8X Cash, Giant Jackpots rtx. J

See there you go again " I no longer produce things like this to help others " Shows when you don't like something you throw your toys out the pram. Here is what I can do but no you can't have it is the worst attitude of all. I can't reproduce anything, too dumb for that but I do know how to repair stuff as evidenced by helping Joe with his Stop the Clock. So you have no position to question my input to this website.....EVER. I don't belong to any other fruity websites, what I need to say goes right here. Andrew, I love what you do and admire your technical abilities immensely, they just seem to come with a negative payload most of the time. Life and humans suck sometimes but the older I get the more I just go with the flow, it's nearer the end than the beginning for most of us, have the best possible day every day. However, I am becoming more mouthy with age, just like the olde folks we used to scorn for being the exact same way lol.

Still cant figure out why the basket is out of line,so I'm stripping down to clean all solenoids and switches,plus regap if needed.i cleaned the rotary contacts pictured with a fibre pencil,they were black.very dirty.

Vid,hope it works. 20200910_203257.mp4

Most 80s machines seem to have pretty big price tags these days. Hope you find what you're looking for though. Welcome to the forum. As Superbank correctly states.... Finding someone willing to sell is something else But you are in the right place for starters orders.
