For each of the three main ones i have BFM, JPM, and MFM i can get none to show the machine shot picture in each emulator game manager or other.

Have tried pictures in emu director shots and in seperate fruit machine directory. Where i run the game files from all are unpacked side by side.

So far not one machine picture has shown up in game managers etc. What is the correct way to do this.

Also noted that JPMu has an option to set the folder but cannopt invoke a directory requester ther or manual input it. Clicking the tick or manual adding via registry does nothing witheither v250 or v251 versions i have tried.

MFM is dumb with everything as per normal.

BFM just doesn't know like the rest.

Machine shot Images are unpacked .jpg 's. Would be nice to see and aid in picking machine that have all machinedecals and transfers (prefered) instead of the ones that don't have. Actual i'm planning to not those that have all graphics and those that dn't. Will seperate them as i go through them all. Will take a long time with playing the machines etc. Have played one or two without all graphics, some are not bad. But the same with graphics makes it just right.

Each screenshot needs to be in .bmp format and renamed to the .gam file and that pic needs to be in the same folder as the .gam file example: (jolly_molly.gam jolly_molly.bmp) for the MFME and for jpemu as for the BFEMU the screenshot cycle screenshot there isn't any way except to view the screenshot folder you made

Thank you for this vital information, all i have is .jpg ones oh crud i'll need to convert them. At least i know, now to find a 'small non bloated' .jpg to .bmp converter. That doesn't lose the picture quality or resolution.
