Copy of Progressive Pool Creation Steps

The preferred way to make progressive pools is to use the Auto Config feature.

Currently there are two ways to create progressive pools manually.

Create “new pool”
1. LC/themes that use DO not use server readable progressive configuration file
Create “new pool group”
1. LC/themes that use a server readable progressive configuration file.

They are used for different reasons and different game types.

Using the PAR sheet for the LC/Theme find the paytable name.
Here are two examples
Once the paytable name is know we can create the correct pool type.
If the paytable name format is in the format PTxxxx.tgz where xxxx is the paytable number (first example)
- The progressive pool type is a “Progressive Pool Group”
- Use "Create Progressive Pool Group” for creating pools
If the paytable name format is NOT in the format xxxx.tgz (second example)
- The progressive pool type is a standard “Progressive Pool”
- Use “Create Progressive Pool" to create pools
