I find that hilarious, considering when I once mentioned that Simulations which are designed to represent real machines should be allowed on the site, I was flamed to buggery.

Oh well, shows how things can change, eh?

Does sound like an interesting bit of kit, I'll be 'avin a look later :)

Here i go again on my own.... Down the only road i've ever known... LOL

What's new.
Holds are implimented. They are 100% working, however the third hold code and hold wins above and bellow are not in yet.

I will release later today, ARRRRRG! As i was typing this i have just broken the visual studio 6 CD in half. I was in my pocket... Crap! It was the original CD too. I never made a back up :roll: Best hope i don't ever need to re-install.....

Anyway i will release later today once i have a bit more in there to save on dumping lots of interim releases on here. I am desperately trying to get saving done so. I'm still waiting to see a release of a machine LOL

[barcrest]

What's New...
Saving Added.. (Not all settings are saved, but most are)
Reel Editor Fixed up a bit more.
Various Bug Fixes.
Holds Added with percentage chance of them occuring.
Fixed Flashing Buttons (Turn em on and see, you might need to change flash rate).
Exchange Button Working.

Have fun guys...

Obviously that is all subjec to change as i add and remove things on a whim. The dodgy sound is back in but i'm sure it's buggy. I may have to take it again and try something else.

THE AUDIO CODE IS SCREWED

that is why the last version is crashing after several spins and you only here the audio once. :oops: Thought it might have been, i will release a new version tomorrow. Later today i will post up an audio demo if you can test for me and post back i will know if it's working and add it in to the kit for tomorrows release. Sorry about that.

[barcrest]

Here is the audio editor.. You can load samples in for each event and play them back... If i get good feedback i'll chuck all this code into the kit tomorrow morning and release it.

This is fantastic Barry, I downloaded one of the very first versions and it was a simple hi/lo, a few versions on from that didn't run for me. Let it alone for a few more versions and have just tried the latest.

Considering how long this has been going it's tremendous progress and looks like having real potential.

Keep up the great work.

This looks really good, but I cant get it to work???

I've downloaded the file and unzipped it, but when I click on the player.exe file I get the following:

Component comdlg32.ocx or one of its dependancies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid.

I know I've probably done something wrong, that is probably extremely simple to put right - please help.

BTW I'm running Windows XP, 3.06 ghz processor

Thanks

Rodney

Here is the missing .ocx file.

Hey cheers pook, i really could do with you making a layout for it.
