Title: Dick Clark Vision Rockin New Year
Post by: therockinelvis on March 27, 2023, 05:11:04 PM
5 reel vision. Reel 5 is not picking up wins. It is showing on the vision monitor and is not giving any errors. You need 3 bonus symbols for the top game. If 3 are any where on reel 1-4 the bonus triggers. If the third symbol is on reel 5 it does not trigger. I tried using another reel thinking the sensor was off but no luck. Backplane?? MPU?? Thinking not harness since it's not giving error and showing on the monitor

Does the 5th reel strip stop on the correct symbol for regular wins?

I'll be honest with ya...I have no idea what the CD does...lol I was never able to get the game going without it though. :no: Maybe Qbert has an idea, as the Reel Touch platform he plays around with - uses CD players. I'll ask him.

lol...Thanks STS...you're a website wizard! :hail:
Here's what I found out therockinelvis, Qbert told me basically that the CD on the Reel Touch platform is used to load up to ATA, RFA, & BGM files to the HDD in the topbox computer. After that, he explained, it's really not needed anymore.
However, I am uncertain that if you were to remove the CD drive, would the game still work? Because I would think that when you boot up the machine from a cold start, the MPU is looking for the CD drive, or it will error out with the Red Screen displaying the "Missing Components" message.
What I think also happened is that one of the main reasons the Reel Touch & Vision CD's are hard to find, is because the slot wholesalers, not knowing how to set-up the Reel Touch's & Vision's, their techs and machine "re-furbishing" workers at the warehouses basically dumped the CD drives and LCD computers into the trash - unfortunately, along with the CD's! :bawling: Many warehouses are pretty much in a rush to turn around the machines, get them back out the door...the Reel Touches & Visions are a pain-in-the-you-know-what to get up and running correctly. If you don't have the right software combo, one thing is wrong, all you get is the "Red Screen of Death". The quick solution was to rip everything out, and throw in a Double Diamond glass set and be done with it.
As far as the HL&W, basically, I believe we're just missing parts of the software on the BGM cards we have. I'm thinking that's pretty much the reason why the Bonus game won't complete the fishing animation sequence.

Just the SB. The bgm plays on the fishin game SB but locks up because it is the wrong SB

I tried every bgm I have with that SB000161 and it would not work with any

Remember what Chris Columbus said about that SB chip last year...>>>
"The stepperbase we have for SB000161 is fake! I have no doubt about it now. I am about 98% sure that the BGM is good, we just need a good working stepperbase."
