Glad I discovered this forum, looks like a great resource.
Is there a subforum somewhere with PAR sheets posted? I have seen some requests for PAR sheets using the search function.
In any case I'm particularly interested in the PAR sheet for IGT's Sizzling 7s if anyone has it or knows where I can obtain it.
Thank you.

Are you needing the part sheet for regular S2000 Sizzling 7's?
-
I found the S+ PAR sheets in the downloads section after making my original post. Do the S2000s have different PAR sheets? If so I would like to see them for comparison.
-
The S2000 par sheets are pretty much the same, except that they are referenced by paytable number. Since an S+reel chip only has one paytable, the PAR name corresponds to the chip. On the S2000 the base chip includes multiple paytables, so a par "set" for the base chip would include all the paytables in the base chip as individual files for each paytable. The information inside the files is essentially the same.
-
When you say multiple paytables do you mean multiple virtual reel sets - i.e. multiple RTP versions of the same game?
Or does S2000 actually include paytables for different games than the one a machine is specifically set up for?
Sorry for the novice questions.
-
A paytable consists of all the virtual reel listings, winning combinations and their awards. So on an S+ a Reel prom holds one paytable (a specific percentage). On an S2000, the base chip holds all the percentages that were approved for the specific jurisdiction where the base chip is allowed. It is the same game, but each paytable will yield a different payback to the customer, typically from 85% to about 94 or 96%. On the S2000 you can choose which paytable (hold back) during keychip setup. On the S+ you change percentages by changing the reel chip.

Thanks for the info.
Is the keychip setup a complicated process or can the RTP on an S2000 be easily changed whenever the slot director wants?
-
Casinos are not allowed to change the holdback percentage on a machine once it is setup without notifying the gaming commission. That's why the gamin commission puts all the red tape (literally red tape) on top of all firmware related chips. In random audits, if they are broken, casinos get fined. So the key chip is typically only used during initial setup, or replacement of bad parts that may require a key chip (although this is rare). The keychip is not all that complicated once you've done it once or twice.

[size=78%]Is this true for video slots? I know on the initial installation it's a pretty straightforward process to pick the desired RTP from a range of options, but are they then not permitted to change it without filing with the regulators?[/size]
-
To the best of all casino video slots have multiple paytables, so the par files will also have all of them.
-
Sorry for the delayed follow up, but do you guys think there's any chance of getting a slot tech to give you a look at the RTP of a machine in a casino?
-
Are you just wanting to know what paytables are available for that theme?
Casinos set them differently depending on location. If Sizzling 7's is in one of ours it would typically be as below or closest available paytable to that percentage.
.25c to .50c- 93%
$1 to $2- 94%
$5 to $25- 95 to 96%
$100- 97%
