Hi all,
Is it possible to turn my Super Line Up into an emulation game?
Cheers,
T

And we are missing the MPU5 Red Gaming 21st Anniversary Line Up ROM set from the DATs, so getting a dum of the ROMs would be an excellent start. Then we would just need an emulator coder to get around the Red Gaming security.

What are ROMs? and how do it all working if I could turn Super Line Up into a emulator what do you copy etc.
Someone has mentioned if I have the right ROM I could change the jackpot for this machine and change the game to the bingo version but I'd wanna change it back soon after LOL.

You really do know nothing, don't you. OK. Very basically, the ROMs are the coded instructions for the machine that the micro-processor uses to decide what to do when you are playing the game. The Red Gaming Line Up is built around MPU5 (micro processor unit 5) technology and the ROMs plug into the MPU5 board to make the machine into a Red Gaming Line Up. Different ROMs plugged into the same MPU5 board would play different games.
The current situation is that we have an emulator that can recreate an MPU5 board, but the security chip for Red Gaming machines based on MPU5 hasn't been cracked yet. So, to play the Red Gaming Line Up in an emulator we firstly need the ROMs dumped (a copy of the information in digital form taken from them and stored in files) and for an emulator to be built that does have the Red Gaming security chip cracked and MPU5 working too.
In terms of your machine, I understood the machine to be stake and jackpot switchable via the DIP switch. From what I have heard, I wouldn't bother even trying to get a Bingo version.

No I don't know a great deal, but everyone has to start somewhere. Picking up these bits as I go along.

I don't respond to posts for thanks or gratitude of anything else; shit this is FME and if I was after stuff like that there would be massively more straight-froward places to get it. Having said that, you will probably find it harder to glean more information in the future if you don't thank the people providing said information on the basis they are less likely to supply it.
Apologies if my first sentence sounded a bit rude, I certainy did not have that intention.

All contributions are v. appreicated, bj thanks, the only things is when you fellas start talking at a techinical level, I really don't understand, basic level where I am.
Do the roms plug in and out the board? Just looking at some pics n stuff of board.

Basically we cant find the CHR (security code) Characteriser or whatever, hidden in the ROMs, we belive also that every Red Gaming set of ROMs has a unique Secuirty number, unlike other MPU5 games which there are about 10 or 15 variants of which they will run games.
So the ROM for Red Gaming needs to be cracked (to find the code which is encrypted in the ROM) for ever individual game to get the emulator to read the ROM.
All we get so far is' CHR Unrecognised' in the emulator because it cannot find it.

Yes, but please don't ask me where as I have never even seen an MPU board in real life. Cardie could probably post an image of the board with the ROMs highlighted; he's clever like that.

Yes, but hopefully when a methodology for obtaining the CHR is found then they can all be obtained in the same way. Sadly even if we obtain the ROMs and the CHR we will still not probably be able to play in MFME.

Thanks both, someday no doubt I can share my MPU5 SLU as an emulator.
