How can I extract the background image from a slot machine?

I can right click on an item and do extract image/bitmap,  but nothing happens.

I needed to change an item on the picture layout,  and don't have the original image.

 

Thank you

Design mode, right click on the said image you want to save, and from the properties list that appears

 

"save bitmap"

Where does it get saved?

it's not in the folder with the .GAM file   or in the eXE folder..

And not getting a popup where to save it.

It will save in the game folder  or wherever you choose(see pic)

 

you need to give it a name, so it saves

I am not getting any of that.

 

When I have the layout from the slotmachine up,  and right-click I can do   Save Bitmap.

and when I click nothing happens.   So I can't seem to save the slotmachine image.

Tried it with the buttons etc.  and save thing.

 

I am in Edit mode,  

The only thing I can save it the Reels in a different popup.

I was trying to get the slot machine image from Viva Espana

I think you're find if you open up viva Espana normally (not via mfme) your BMPs will be in the folder.

Right Click on the background in Edit Mode and select properties, the background properties window will open, right click on the image on the left and select Save Bitmap, eneter details and click save.

Is that the same screen where I can load the bitmap for the background?  .  if so  I don't have these options.

Right click  cleared out the image..  (unless I am at the wrong spot..  I'm at work now, so I can't check)

 

and @vectra666 how do I open it up normally?   I have have 4 files.  a Dat,Gam and 2 other ones.

Is there a reader for those files then?

Ah if you are using the old MFME ( not v5 ) I think you shift click on the image to save it ? It was a long time ago now

[pka4916]

I downloaded whatever was available  4.9.4  I think I saw.

Unless there is a newer one?

Download mfme 5.1 it is much more accurate than the older builds,with the sound timings and loads more.

[pka4916]

Awesome.. Thank you.   I will find the download when  I get home.

 

Used to play this gosh... 15+ years ago, when there were 2-3 different exe's..   Now I see it'd all in 1 EXE file..  

Love it  and can pick up my skills again

[pka4916]

Wow.. this version is a lot better.

Thank you
