The slots

Post by atoga »

Does anybody have info on the slot machines in FO2, ie. probability of winning, different combinations, and such. Any info would be helpful.

I suggest an easy method, but it´s up to you if you want to do it.

Increse your Gamble-skill to about 120% (takes some expensive skillpoints) and increase your Luck and you can probably go for 100$ on the Redding-tables and triple your money...

I´m playing with a character with a Luck at 9 and a gambleskill at 126. He´s not too good in combat BUT when he´s at the tables he´ll win big time!

I'm not after money, I'm just curious about the mechanics involved.

Use the map editor to figure out the script and then check the script out...

Well, beats what we used to have to do which was searching for strings we knew about in the msg files for text we knew the gambing item used, decompile with a shady compiler (I'm referrring to IPP), and try to figure that out...

yea, some. I've figured out most of the formulas based on luck and such, but it's a little confusing. And certainly too lengthy to post here. :P
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.
