After Scorpio's super 1280 version last month here comes my 1024...Had done a bit of work on this at the same time until Hurtand said out of the Blue "you do know Scorp's is doing that!" 8O ......Well spoken to Scorpio and he is a little tied-up so i'm taking it on-board again.

Stef is working with me, as this is his first MFME I am starting afresh so it may be a good week before its out.

Yeah good look guys

Sure it will be another great release!

I've only ever seen the Blue cabinet version before, I assume that Blue is BWB and Red is Barcrest in this case??

Oh, and Stef, you couldn't hope to have a better mentor for making a layout - Adydb only had to gag me and beat me with sticks to make me release my first layout

i hope that pic of yours is a wind up RB. if not i want that mpu5 emulator posted asap.

[Bencrest]

Lol @ RB

Of course theres no MPU5 emu.

Anyway, I'm hoping I get Adders N Ladders done by this weekend. I spend far too long f**king around last year at college rather than doing work, but this year has got to be different. I'll probably not release another layout after Adders N Ladders, at least not for a while.

Shame, but people underestimate the amount of work that goes into a layout - it isn't just grabbing a picture and shoving reels on top [not normally anyway!], and I just can't afford to waste another year.

Well, I was going to release another machine in a fortnight, and probably will. God, I'm addicted to FME, but college is important!!!!

Damn internet, I wish I didn't have a computer!

A little slow as I had a PC crash and Stef has gone away for the weekend..

But as you can see, Reels, Nudges and Feature Trail are done...So as soon as he's back it's on-track.

yeah the red cabinet was barcrests release and the blue cab was bwb or a barcrest kit that a supplier did themselves.

[Bencrest]

OK, I'm sorry that this question isn't directly related to the release [although I am eagerly awaiting it - make sure that Stef earns his keep Adydb!!!!]

---I know that BWB has somehow 'become' Vivid - although AFAIK Vivid do not make 'rebuilds' as such.

Do they still supply MPU5 rebuild kits [as in, for example, Smokey Bikin [clone of MPU5 Spiker the Biker] to suppliers?

If so, any idea on pricing?

not to my knowledge benito
bwb and vivid are the same company but bwb only supply older kits and none of them include any vivid releases.

the only kits we get now are from global,empire,qps or mazooma.

At long last it's finished!!!

Being playtested at the mo....Little gutted as where we have worked around a 1024 some logo's need a telescope to see but there's duplicate set of hard to read things set in the window..

Hope to have it out tomorrow.

Well, heres what happened to me :

I bought some Spiker decals for £5 jackpot, which turned out to be for BWB Smokey Bikin. The parts number at the top of the decals says 'Vivid Smokey Bikin' - BWB kits may still be available, but I'm confident that Vivid has 'absorbed' them, hence no new BWB machines in ages

Ady,. all tested fine.

All lamps working, features doing what there supposed to do.

So its a thumbs up from this side

[ady]

Thanks very much Paul........

I really meant to add this in the comments but forgot :oops:

A big thanks to you and Marco for testing it for us.

Now in the recently added column.

[ady]

OMG Fount a problem :oops:

The Darts Champion and the Skill Stop are the wrong way around....


Most of you guy's can fix it but for the newbies.....

In the emulator you will see DESIGN click this and then Edit (you will see the layout change).

Right click on Darts Champ and select Properties, a box will appear just below the hold buttons--drag this up so it's visable.

Simply delete the wording Darts Champ and replace with Skill Stop and click apply.......then do the same for the box saying Skill Stop

Go back to Design select Layout/Game then Save Layout in the box tick SAVE and it will say it exists...just click ok and it will overwrite the mistake. Then untick Design --Sorry!!

Lol

I never noticed that.

Maybe because i had never played the machine in the pubs ? and i've usually got my eyes covered on Mystery's
