I've got an older Olympic (Magic Million is the specific machine) pokie machine (Australia), and wondering if anyone has a manual to suit it? Looking to know about the connection of components, etc.

I've checked the download section and can't see anything relevant..

Thanks,

Hi.

Even if you get a manual to get it going you will need a RAM clear eprom to start the game up. This is a pre X series Olympic the later models can be RAM cleared without the eprom. Good luck with it but really not worth the time wasted.. I have the clear chips if you get to that stage..If the monitor boots up & there is a thin red line across the lower part of the creen then it will require the RAM clear.

I'm not planning on booting it with its own systems. Infact, I don't even have the boards for it, only cabinet & screen. I'm planning on converting it to a mame system, but want to integrate as many 'cabinet' functions as possible, by modifying the mame source a bit. I've already got the mame stuff working, which will allow me to drive the hopper and read the coin-out optics. I'm picking up a hopper to suit this machine in a few weeks, but I'll need to know things like the pinout of the hopper connector, and where certain things lived inside the unit (volume controls, the monitor adjustment controls, etc.)
A manual showing details of how things fit together in the cab is really what i'm looking for Smiley I've seen the Aristocrat 540 manual and if there was something equally detailed for this machine, it'd be perfect.

That's a shame there's no internals. Would be nice to submit another driver to MAME to help preserve this platform.

Oh yes, and if I come across a working Olympic system it'll be something is be interested in doing, but sadly they're rare as hens teeth Wink
For now, this will be the cabinet/housing for my mame mk4 system Smiley should have it close to complete in the next few weeks.
