  • a gaming machine 300 is connected to a game application server 302.
  • the game application server 302 is connected to (or includes) a game server database 304.
  • the game server database 304 utilises a database logic layer 306 to interact with the game application server 302. While the embodiment described with reference to Figure 3 only shows one gaming machine 300 connected to one game application server 302, it will be understood that a plurality of gaming machines may be connected to the game application server 302.
  • the gaming machine 300 contains and is capable of executing client game software, which may allow a number of games, 308a, 308b, 308c, etc. to be played on the gaming machine.
  • the game application server 302 includes a plurality of software modules, including manager modules 310, wherein each manager module is arranged to manage a different function of the game application server 302.
  • each module may also contain sub-modules, arranged to perform particular functions.
  • meters may be broadly classified into at least two types, according to the type of information held by the meter.
  • One type of meter is the platform meter, which is a meter that collects information pertaining to a gaming machine or gaming system (e.g. the input or output of money).
  • Another type of meter is the game meter, which is a meter that monitors events that occur within a particular game (e.g. the number of win events in a game that resulted in a payout). That is, particular games in a gaming system may include further meters specific to the game type.
  • the game meter cache 326 in the embodiment described herein, is dynamically created in the gaming application server 302, by any appropriate method, such as, for example, the allocation or 'blocking' of a portion of memory in RAM or ROM.
  • one platform meter cache instance per gaming machine 300 that is connected to the game application server 302.
  • the cache 326 resides in the game application server, an alternate embodiment may include the cache in the gaming machine 300.
  • the meter registration is handled in a sequence with the normal event registration as a part of an "atomic" transaction in the sense that either all steps are performed or the transaction is considered not to have occurred.
  • the transaction is managed by the logic layer 306 of the database 304.
  • the transaction includes two separate database storage operations that are required to have occurred before the transaction can be committed.
  • the game application interface (GDK) 315 is provided with an interface for game specific meters, namely a Game Specific Meter Interface (GSMI) 328.
  • the GSMI 328 is arranged to communicate meter control commands and meter values between the server game software 316 (i.e. for each available Game 1 through to Game #) and the meter manager 320.
  • server game software 316 to access the meter management functionality of the gaming system, and further allows a game developer to define and utilise meters pertaining to internal game events that occur in the game sequence but which do not give any detectable output from the server game software.
  • the game application server is further provided with a random number generator RNG 330, which via the game manager provides the game with a random number upon request (which can be utilised in the calculation of various game outcomes).
  • the game application server may further include a compensated gaming controller CGC 332.
  • the compensated gaming controller CGC 332 is capable of receiving game specific meter information from the game specific meter interface GSMI 328 and a random number from the RNG 330.
  • the compensated gaming controller CGC 332 utilises the information to generate win/lose information. This process is described in more detail below.
  • the GSMI 328 is designed such that the server game software is capable of:
  • the meter registration is handled in a sequence with the normal event registration as a part of an "atomic" transaction in the sense that either all steps are performed or the transaction is considered not to have occurred.
  • the transaction is managed by the logic layer 306 of the database 304.
  • the normal event and meter registration the transaction includes two separate database storage operations that are required to have occurred before the transaction can be committed.
  • the utilisation of the GSMI allows for the following functionality to be implemented in the gaming system:
  • the game application server further comprises a compensated gaming controller CGC 332.
  • the compensated gaming controller CGC 332 receives (as input) game specific meter information from the game specific meter interface GSMI 328 and a random number from the RNG 330 generated upon request from the game (step 500).
  • the compensated gaming controller CGC 332 then calculates appropriate win/lose information utilising the random number, the game specific meter information and a set of predetermined rules for determining a win/loss based on win history (Step 502).
  • This information may then be returned to the game manager 314 (Step 504), which may then alter the outcome of the games 308a, 308b, 308c on the gaming machine 300 (Step 506).
  • This manner of managing games of chance is thus not truly random, but rather random over a certain time period.
  • the embodiments described above may be implemented via an application programming interface (API), for use by a developer, and can be included within another software application, such as a gaming machine operating system or a gaming server operating system.
  • API application programming interface
  • program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, and data files that perform or assist in the performance of particular functions
  • a software application which carries out method steps in accordance with an embodiment of the invention may be distributed across a plurality of routines, objects and components, which correspondingly may be located across a plurality of physical hardware devices.
