Project to Bring Old Dead Slots Back to Life (Custom Software)

[mwmdragon]

Hello Everyone,

My first post was based on an known IP owned by IGT and now I'm showing off the project with my fully owned IP.

This project aims to create new (and re-create old) Slots games designed to run on a cheap computer put into old Slot machine cases that no longer work. This is done by using a keyboard encoder and a cheap PC to hook up to the buttons and monitor in the dead slot game cabinet, bringing it back to life. If you are interested in this kind of project please join in the conversation.

We will be adding a project website soon for people who are interested in continuing the conversation without putting good old NLG in the middle of the conversation.

Here is a demonstration Image of a completely new Slot machine software that works on a PC in the cabinet (No internet required). Touch is working perfectly and custom button mapping will be available when we launch the beta.




*** NOTE: we were chatting with a few people before our post was removed due to the copywritten images, so we removed the copywritten images and would like to continue the conversation

Looks like an interesting project.  I'll watch for the web page.

Thanks,
Wayne

Just of note to anyone out there, a cheap computer does not mean a dinosaur that's been sitting around unused for 15 years!

I recently wiped the dust from an old Pentium 4 with its obligatory Windows XP + Firefox 52 ESR combo but it failed to load the app ("Your browser does not support WebGL"). I just had to check for shiggles.

Thank you to NLG for allowing my post to rise from the dead.

Here is a video of the fist set of Slot machine games that can run on 4:3 or 19:9 screens. It's all setup to be used with a touch screen or a regular slot button panel (USB Encoder). I'm still doing some testing for what computer requirements this software will need to be run, so we are testing it on a bunch of systems.

This pack of games is 18+ but this video is rated for everyone as I don't win on any special symbols.

I will have pictures and video of this running in a old slot cabinet soon.

That link was just a demonstration in a browser and doesn't reflect the requirements at all. The released software will run on any 64bit windows system, I may even compile a 32 bit system, but I doubt it as computer with windows 10 can be purchased for $60 and up. Have a look in my latest post for a video showing it running on a $60 computer with windows 10.

I have been looking for something like this that'll run on a Raspberry Pi.

[mwmdragon]

Raspberry Pi is an ARM CPU not an Intel based CPU which means it has very specific development requirements. I'll have a look and see if there is a way for me to convert a copy of the project to ARM, but I'm not sure it can be done that easily. A cheap PC can be less expansive than a Raspberry Pi right now, just so you are aware

We have started work on custom (Copywrite belongs to us) slots games.




We do have an adult focused pack of slot games releasing on Steam on February 6th but we will post about that in it's own thread.

Here it is running on a Cheap PC and a USB Zero Delay control board in my Game King cabinet.

The Project Site is online, and as promised here is the link.

I'm sorry to the NLG mods who didn't like my posts. But I learned a lot from this community and want to give back to the hobby.
