Title: West Virginia Gameking
Post by: laneman on December 06, 2009, 09:03:13 PM
Does anyone know which Gameking software this is that they run in the West Virginia slot parlors?
Its unusual to see games like LGM,TexasTea and Enchanted Unicorn in a multigame platform.These game are the regular versions too,not the 8 line/9 reel versions you normally see in the casinos.

WV is Lottery based.

I was going to postulate LOTTO software, and you beat me to it!  :3-

Has anyone tried running lotto software??? Can it run on a standalone machine, I am not sure just how they do it??

Captain...I was going to ask the same questions,you beat me to it.  :)

I wonder if its run off a central server.or special software written for standalone machines?

There are various versions of GK v6.0 that runs a program just like what you are seeing (non-lottery).  This runs on a 044 board, not 3902.

I noticed that at my nearby casino...
many top themed games all lumped into one machine...
I thought that was kind of neat!
Many of the ones mentioned above...
I know they design software for cherrymaster type boards that can have several titles in one machine,
they also do that for old arcade type boards too...
I don't see why it cannot be done for slot programs.
Esp. if they are running on the same platform and boards.

That sure looks like a 3802 or 3902(3?) board based on the menu graphics, unless they made a version that uses the 044 board and still has the older graphics?

You may be right, but my guess is that the 3902 does not really have the speed and especially memory capability to handle the multiple games.  But yes, they are the original (older) games and graphics all on one board.  There are different versions of this GK 6.0 on a 044 there available with different game options.  I currently have access to one version that includes games like Texas Teas, Cleopatra, the newer Fortune Cookie, Salmon run, etc., and of course all the great poker and keno games.

Jim,

That sounds like a pretty cool gameset! Do you know the chip numbers so I can try to find some more info about the gameset? I can't afford 044 now, but I can still dream! I can afford paper, so if I can find the Docs on the chipset I can print them to catch my  :184- :184- :184- :183- :183- :183- :185- :185- :185- A set like that might make it easier for me to try to justify 044, in my mind at least! :97- :97- :97-

I wonder if they are running the 044.

These games have been on these machines for a long time that I can remember,ever since they started these off track slot parlors/cafes.
It has to be atleast 5 years since they first opened.Were the 044 around that long ago?
Any West Virginia slot techs out there?

Captain Id like to get my hands on this software too,they are fun to play.
What was nice is each machine(they had 5 total)had different sets of games on them.Played a Neon Nights for the first time on one of them.

It looks like it's not a GK 6.0 -  I'm trying to find a list of the games on a 6.1. and 6.2.

I see this is a pretty old thread,  :96-
I was just curious if anyone ever found out if this GK program was available?
This would be a neat set to have!

I have a couple of those sets.Bad thing is they wont run unless they are connected to the WV lottery server.  :(

I was told by a w va casino you get no s/w when you buy games  from there the state owns s/w.  I have some games that came from w va all missing s/w , there a few experts here on w va stuff  they can tell you better than anyone

Slotsteve is 100% correct.
I think the reason they dont give you the software is because its useless anyway if it cant connect to the lottery server.
