I have edited the download, if you download it yourself you'll see what i've done.

You may upload more than One version with the same link, this just saves on some bandwidth.

Yeah works in win 7 now, good effort viv just ignor when others judge it's always been like that on here. You will be getting req's for DOND next.

Haha trying to sim a DOND would be easy til it gets to the DOND feature i wouldnt know what to do .I am already thinking bout other projects i was thinking bout Rainbow Riches,Elvis,Party Games or heck maybe more monopoly .......Any suggestions?

[jamesy4]

I would love to see a Rainbow Riches Simulation Done or if you want and people will probably be asking for it....

I was thinking bout a board for the Rainbow Riches idea....as for party time compared to this project it will be easy but i personally dont like party time .

[cashbox1]

works a treat vivid - well done mate

[jamesy4]

Could you try and do a adders and ladders single player (version of the multiplayer version) ? that would be a good one to play on...but liking the feature board idea for rainbow features, gives it something different then POTS, or Spinner..

Oh yes i was thinking bout some kind of adders and ladders video slot with a few extra features chucked in .But at the moment i am really fed up with making sims,monopoly was driving me mad lol but i will eventually start on something new .Oh btw dont expect my graphics skills to improve much if i release new sims just thought i would give an early warning on that .

Any chance you could upload the raw source code - that way other people wishing to make some machines will have a "tutorial" to work from as they could load it into the Game Maker and see how it works.

Hmmm i dont know where i could find the raw source code in this....plus i wouldnt want people posting my sim as there own creation. I didnt actually use any codeing or scrpiting in this so i dont think i could even post it.

Its the file you save as the game (not the standalone .exe file)
Just thought it might help others in making some more machines - as the only tutorials supplied with the Game Maker (or anywhere online) are for things like pacman or platform type games.

Ah i know what you mean now. I would post it to help others learn its just a small amount of people would probarbly post my game as there own work and give no credit. Sorry .

Knowing FME they would start ripping your work off and it ending up on Ebay

Its ok - I found something that can open the .exe file in Game Maker and show me all the info required.... Wow, didnt realise that so many sprites go into the game.

[Johnnyafc]

Bloody hell there is alot of sprites and work that went in to it, - i couldnt see many people having the patience to do all that

Simulations take a crazy amount of work! Far more than people realise thats for sure!

And guitars emu for example even more work than that!

Its nice to finally see people acknowledging the sheer volume, time and effort involved of making all these things happen....

Classic Layouts
DX Layouts
SIMs
Emulators
Etc...

Anyone making any of the above gets my respect.....
