Had this machine for over a week now and I hoped to have had it finished well before now.

Had far too much going on in real-land this week, loads of it unexpected...so FME took a major back-seat...

Glad to say its Wednesday now and i'm back on track (except for the Hex Stu1)...

Now this Emulation, what have I done so far?.....nothing at all really, bar creating the cab for the last hour and getting Two pics of the glass to see how it looked.

The glass will be replaced with scan's that I hope to do over the next couple of days, from then on it should be plain sailing thanks to pete_w allowing me to base it on his classic.

Now this is One WIP that I can actually get finished seeing as I have all the images and ROM's needed on-hand...

Nice little machine for the old-boys...from an era when machines were entertainment. Its final safety sticker is dated 22nd December 1984.

... older than me, and from the look of your pictures, in much better shape

Looking forward to it, not normally one for playing older machines but like the odd dabble on them

Hiya Gaz,

No mate a £2.70 win off of ebay!

Not only will we have a scanned Emulation but....some of the bits will be used to help a fellow member get their machine in order, but the guts will also be used by another to (I presume) reincarnate it at some time as they are having the glass and loom.

I love this stuff, and when I see some replies off of the 'older' members it really makes you want to try doing the 'extra mile' on it.....

Cheers for the replies from all too.

Although there is a real good DX already having the scans makes all the difference.

Been playing around a little tonight and scanned the bottom glass (the easy One!) but am not happy with it.....I had a little bit of light getting in on the left-hand bit so its....start again lol

As you can see just One of the 5 scans (highlighted) that make it up is totally screwed

Those pics look great, really makes a difference with the glass scans Ady. Yet more resources required as you say......Hats off to you!!!

This will be wonderful

[Gazeyre1966]

Cracking buy Ady. I'd forgotten about this gem. Moving to a ground floor flat shortly so I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for more of the same in future. Good luck and I look forward to the release mate.

[blub1967]

Guys i'm having a little problem on a couple of lamps.....

A = No Change Available
B = Melon Meter (on the glass this does have a lamp, but of course may not be supported within the Emu)
C = Extra Interest (as the above really)

I'd really appriciate any help on searching as I really can't find them

Thanks in advance.

The original Classic and DX are in the downloads under Take Two.

Ady

Upper "Melon Meter" halves are 242 & 243 (as in Pete's classic).
Lower "Pays Melon Meter" is 53.
"No Change Available" is 255.

The "Extra Interest" lamp doesn't work due to an emu issue.

Hope this helps!
