The links in the tutorial section under, "Step 2 - The different emulators" Which show newbies like myself which roms work with each emulator are broken.They just link back to the main forum page. Just thought i'd let you know so you can fix it as I found it abit confusing the first time using the site.

ps. I love the site.

Your bang on actually..the link...

Step 1 - Install Fruit Machine Emulation Installation Wizard (FMEIW)

Download the latest copy of FMEIW "here" you may also need update files for MFME 2.0 and BFMulator 2.05.

1. Using WINZIP extract the contents of the file fmeiw.zip into an empty directory. Do not run directly from the zip file as this will cause installation problems. To do this if you have WINZIP correctly installed simply RIGHT click the fmeiw.zip file and select 'Winzip' and then 'Extract here..' from the menus displayed.

2. You will now see the file fmeiw.exe in the same place as the fmeiw.zip file. Double-click the file fmeiw.exe and the installation will begin. You will now see the first screen.

"here" actually is a direct link straight back to the forums.
Mmmmmm...Sandy ive 'ad her ye know. :)

All the links in the following section point back to the main forum and not to the downloads:
"Step 2 - The different emulators

You will now have an entry within your START menu titled 'Fruit Machine Emulation'. Within this you will find a shortcut for each of the emulators.



There are currently 5 different emulators :

BFMulator will run all of the machines you find in this section of the downloads. BFMulator is different from all the other emulators in that it can run an emulation whilst it is still in a .zip file, so long as the ZIP file contains both a layouts and the ROMs.

JPeMu will run all of the machines you find in this section of the downloads. Layouts and ROMs for the latest version of JPeMu are stored in the same ZIP file but must be unzipped before the emulation can be played.

MFME v1.1 and v2.0 will run both MPU3/4 layouts and M1A layouts. Some of the ZIP files for these machines will contain both the ROM and layout and some will be seperate. You will need to check the comments for each download for more details.

MFME v2.0 layouts can be found here and must only be run in version 2 - loading these into version 1.1 will result in an 'invalid layout' error."

The links are pointing to http://www.fruit-emu...ndex.php?cid=14 , which I'm guessing was the downloads section before the site was updated.
