Title: An interesting Game King accounting glitch
Post by: TheAirBalancer on January 08, 2014, 12:24:39 AM
When I crossed $10 million on this machine I saw the same glitch as the picture below. You can clearly see in this picture that the total played $ value should read $20 million but the first zero on the left in the "total played" is missing so it reads 2 million. When I went over 10 million the same thing happened until I hit $11 mill. and then it went back to normal and shows the missing zero. The hold % values always remain correct.
I'm feeling particularly chatty tonight and was also wondering if anyone else has noticed this before.  :103-

Here is another accounting screen. This is the "machine master accounting" versus one page of the Game accounting I showed above. Notice the total played at the top shows 2 million but should read 20 million and has the first zero dropped off, yet the machine hold % is correct.

This is the same screen as shown above just a short time later when it has crossed the $21 million mark and now displays this correctly on "total played" at the top.

Interesting finds, however, typical home user/owner would never even approach these limits. Maybe why no one has ever really given it much consideration.  :89-

A pixelated screen normally indicates that the software hasn't booted properly.  Since you didn't have any software installed on the board, that's what I'd expect you'd see.  Attached is a diagram that shows you where the simms and EPROMs go.  Your PXLF simm can go into any one of the three pixel simm slots. 

Did you know there's a legacy adapter board for the 044 MPU that allows you to use the older 3902 simms on it? Much easier to use that then to swap out the motherboard.

Yes, very interesting find.  I've got an idea ... send me $10M and I'll see if I can replicate your issue. :97-
