Title: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: golflover on July 21, 2010, 11:02:49 AM I will be picking up a bartop gamemaker next month in my travels. I have looked at the list of Gamemaker games and SMI numbers that is posted on this great site. Is their away to tell how many slots the games take up. I found that the goldmine slots takes 2 game slots, but that was all I could find in searching this site. Was just wondering if there is a list I could print out. Thanks All!

Games like GOLDMINE slots , POKER, BLACKJACK only use 1 chip.... therefore you can put 10 various chips on a board. There are also dedicated games that will use 8 chips ( or so) and the machine will only be able to play that particular game.
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: golflover on July 21, 2010, 11:41:27 AM Wow 8 chip slots.. I'll need a bigger game :72- Do they make daughter boards for the gamemaker to add chips? Or are you limted to just the 10 chip slots on the main board/
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: tollguy316 on July 21, 2010, 11:50:22 AM No... What you can do is but another board and swap it out whenever you get tired of the one that is installed. I have 2 boards with 10 games on each that I swap out occasionally.
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: FORDSBS on July 21, 2010, 11:54:45 AM I have a game maker 17". I have 25 games so far for mine. Each board will hold up to 10 games. I got more boards. After you set the games up on a board all you have to do is pull a board out and slide another one in.
Jim @ blueridge listed @ top of page can fix you up with games & you will need a clear chip to add games and set up board.

When you add the new board do you have to use the clear chip and re-calibrate the machine? Or do you just remove, install and fire it up?
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: FORDSBS on July 21, 2010, 12:44:06 PM After you set it up the 1st time all you do is shut machine down & pull a board out and put other board in and turn on and your ready to go.
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: golflover on July 21, 2010, 12:46:26 PM Great!!!! I haven't even picked up the game yet and I have a growing wish list :89-
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: FORDSBS on July 21, 2010, 12:50:02 PM With all the games you can play it's fun. Depends what base chip is in you can set up different 4 denominations
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: golflover on July 21, 2010, 12:55:36 PM From what the current owner told me, it is muti- denomiational. has 10 games, all poker and one slot game, wizard of oddz. I am not sure which version of the main board is in it. Won't know that til I get it. It also has the JCM 200 DBV so i won't have to upgrade that.
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: FORDSBS on July 21, 2010, 01:06:59 PM That one's ready to go. When you get it I'll help you what I can. I'm no expert like some guys on here but I'll help what I can.

Depends what base chip is in you can set up different 4 denominations Actually, it's 5 denominations. Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: FORDSBS on July 21, 2010, 02:02:01 PM OLD AGE. I stand corrected
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: golflover on July 21, 2010, 02:12:00 PM I don;t have the game yet.. but am conting the days.. :89- It is multi-denominational. Is there a particulair set of denominations you have to use, such as 1.00 5.00 10.00 20.00 50.00 or 1 cent 5 cent 10cent 25 cent 50 cent or can they be mixed 1 cent, 25 cent 1.00 5.00 10.00. just wondering and learning :103-
Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: FORDSBS on July 21, 2010, 02:15:15 PM What ever you like to play for.
I'm cheep- .01-.02-.05-.25-.50 Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: golflover on July 21, 2010, 02:19:52 PM What ever you like to play for. I'm cheep- .01-.02-.05-.25-.50 Well I am a cheap player at the casino, that is just entertainment for me. At home with my "banks" I play for more. But I like the 5 cent 25 cent rate of play. I get moe to play with when banking my money in the machine. The 1 cent option will be good too, be 2000 credits for 20 bucks, not bad. betting the max it would be fun. When i played the 25 cent let it Ride machines at casino niagara I hit the Royal flush, wasn;t betting the max and only collected 1500.00 canadian.. Course after the exchange to American money i ended up with 1100.00 Title: Re: Game Maker Chipsets Post by: StatFreak on July 21, 2010, 03:23:21 PM If your machine ends up having the 24 mains, they are both multi-denominational and tokenized. If you enable tokenization, you can select five denominations ranging from 1/100 of your base denomination to 100 times your base denomination.
So, you could set your base denomination (which is what one coin is worth) to $1, and select five denominations ranging from 1¢ to $100, or you could set the base (coin) denomination to $100, and select denominations from $1 to $10,000. The advantage of tokenization is that you can get up to 100 credits for one coin, even if those credits are worth $1 or more each. You can then play for high stakes without giving your bill validator a workout and without dropping in multitudes of coins. If you end up with another multi-denominational set, then you'll be able to select denominations in a range of 1 to 100 times the base (coin) value that you set, and you'll probably want lower denominations so you don't have to feed piles of hundreds into the machine. :5- |
