Title: Wild Thing lighting on blanks???
Post by: Yoeddy1 on March 02, 2014, 05:37:16 PM
Take a look at Jim's video below.  If memory serves, I thought there was an issue reported years ago that blanks would make a sound and light up, and that later this was corrected with an updated chip or something...maybe I'm wrong.  Is this behavior normal for Wild Thing?  When a BAR/cherry/multiplier hits on the line, this would be considered normal lighting up and making a sound, but it seems strange that a blank would do the same thing.  What's even more strange is that blanks sometimes light and other times they don't.

Thoughts?

Jason, I think it was the SG chips that caused it. What's in the game now?

I don't own the game/kit.  I was just checking the game out and found it to be somewhat odd.

While on the subject  of Wild Thing, I saw in a forum topic last week that a Double Diamond Haywire would also work with a Wild Thing Cowgirl SB chip and sound simm.
Ran out and got that SB, (already had a Wild Thing simm) and I am having a blast with it!  Highly recommended if you enjoy screwing around with sounds and such.  Also like this SB better than the Double Diamond Haywires, as it lights up  the symbols on the reel strip anytime you are on for a win, adds to to the fun factor.  :-)

Haha, too funny.  After mt last post, I looked at the next thread active today, and it's all about what I just wrote about, LOL's.   Using a Wild Thing simm in a DD Haywire.

So, I guess the question still remains...is the video above normal behavior, or do you WT owners see the same behavior see the same results?

Thanks,
Jason

Seems weird to me; almost like the strips weren't installed properly or the reels are out of order. I don't have that issue with my WT.

Jason, seems like it was a Wild Cherry theme that had a similar issue and the SG chips that were the problem were 362's and the fix was to switch to 363's

Yeah, I think it was on TD Wild Cherry if I recall.

The problem was in fact caused by the game chip (SB).  The original one used SB100108 caused the anomalies with sound and back-lighting....just another flub up by IGT.  This was later corrected by SB100488.
