Hi all, complete noob to fruit emu here, but I've been reading a lot of the posts and what you guys do is amazing!

I first got into playing emu'd fruities when I was playing emu'd c64 games and I spotted MFME on a search for something else. It has been great to be able to play all the old machines that I remeber from not so long ago (being 19!).

I've had a quick look at IRC, rommanager and clrmamepro, but cant really get my head round it yet.

What this long newbie post is boiling down to is that there are a few machines I would dearly like to play but cant find anywhere. I would love to learn how to MAKE them, but I think that technically it is beyond me. If anyone at all could help me I would be forever in their debt and supremely grateful!

Enough waffle!

The first machine I'm looking for was a 2p play machine I think the jackpot was 2.50.. Cheap but very fun to play as I recall. Cant remember the name, but I'm pretty sure it was something like Space Pilot or Rocket Pilot - something spacey or piloty.. Sorry, I guess thats not much help.

The other machine used to be in my local pub until very recently when the landlord had it changed. Again (and stupidly seeing as it wasnt so long ago...) I can't for the life of me remember the name, but it had 3 stakes, 10p for 1 winline, 30p for 5 winlines and 50p for 5 winlines with 2x numbers. It was a £25 jackpot and the main board was 3 concentric square rings. You started on the outer ring where there things like feature shots, etc. The next ring had better feature shots, cash shots, etc. and the inner ring was cash. I played this machine a few times, and enjoyed it thouroughly, but I've never been much of a winner - I just enjoy playing!

Can anyone save me from the insanity of not quite being able to remember things (you know how annoying it is!) and also if they have been emulated yet. If they have, and I know it is a lot to ask, could I be pointed in the appropriate direction for them please?

Thanks for even reading this!
Monkie!

Thanks Jayroller,

Yeah that sounds about right, but I cant get it to run on mfme 1.1. Invalid layout error. Anything I'm doing wrong?

I _think_ the other one is called either Magic money or Money magic (lol!). Its a fairly recent machine..

Thanks again
Monkie!
