摘要： Different mechanisms are provided to enable a gaming machine to download files/images, move/copy the files/images from one folder to another without breaking authentication, and resume interrupted file manipulation operations such as move/copy operations and/or download operations which have been interrupted by a power hit. In this way, the technique of the present invention is able to provide a self-diagnostic system for ensuring authenticated, atomic transactions, and for automatically handling detected error conditions. Additionally the technique of the present invention is able to provide a mechanism for seamlessly updating gaming machine components at runtime. This may include, for example, the automatic mounting and/or unmounting of selected games to/from the gaming machine memory during runtime.

摘要： A gaming machine displays multiple game outcome presentations to one or more players playing the gaming machine. A player may initiate a new game on the gaming machine while the outcome of a previous game is being presented to the player. For a number of different games, two or more game outcomes may be presented simultaneously to the player on the gaming machine. The game outcome presentations for two or more of the games may appear to interact. However, the game outcomes determined by the gaming machine are independent of one another and do not depend on the game outcome presentation. Many different combinations of games may be played simultaneously on the gaming machine.
摘要翻译：游戏机向播放游戏机的一个或多个玩家显示多个游戏结果呈现。玩家可以在游戏机上发起新游戏，同时向游戏者呈现先前游戏的结果。对于许多不同的游戏，可以将两个或更多个游戏结果同时呈现给游戏机上的玩家。两个或更多游戏的游戏结果演示似乎可以互动。然而，由游戏机确定的游戏结果彼此独立，并不依赖于游戏结果呈现。可以在游戏机上同时玩多种不同的游戏组合。

摘要： A disclosed gaming machine is designed to execute a modular gaming software architecture. A plurality of gaming software modules may be loaded into RAM on the gaming machine and executed to play a game of chance. Many of the gaming software modules are designed to communicate via application program interfaces so that the logic in many of the gaming software modules may be designed independently of each other. In particular, the modular gaming software architecture allows presentation state logic to be decoupled from implementations of presentation components, such as graphical, audio and gaming device components, used in a presentation of the game of chance on a gaming machine.

摘要： A disclosed gaming machine is designed to execute a modular gaming software architecture. A plurality of gaming software modules may be loaded into RAM on the gaming machine and executed to play a game of chance. Many of the gaming software modules are designed to communicate via application program interfaces so that the logic in many of the gaming software modules may be designed independently of each other. In particular, the modular gaming software architecture allows a game flow software module used to generate a game of chance on the gaming machine to be decoupled from a game presentation software module used to present the game chance. Thus, a group of games may be designed where the games share a common game flow software module but use different game presentation software modules to change the look and feel of the game.
摘要翻译：所公开的游戏机被设计为执行模块化游戏软件架构。多个游戏软件模块可以被加载到游戏机上的RAM中并被执行来玩一个机会游戏。许多游戏软件模块被设计成通过应用程序接口进行通信，使得许多游戏软件模块中的逻辑可以彼此独立地设计。特别地，模块化游戏软件架构允许用于在游戏机上产生机会游戏的游戏流软件模块与用于呈现游戏机会的游戏演示软件模块解耦。因此，可以设计一组游戏，其中游戏共享公共游戏流软件模块，但是使用不同的游戏演示软件模块来改变游戏的外观和感觉。
