Anyway I'll do the bug reports over at vbgaming in future. Have you ever tried a 6+ player game of poker there btw? why not arrange one sometime for proper testing if you don't believe my bug reports.

I believe your report, but I've not been able to reproduce the problem so I am looking for clues as too what happened in your game that hasn't happened in any of mine ;)

Andrew!

Why can't other users observe a Chess game between two players??

We have a Chess game on our site between two other players, but no one else can observe!!!!

(this is getting annoying!!)

Next big game we have I'm going to take screenshots every 30 secs or so or maybe make a movie.

I'll report over on vbgaming:up:

This is a basic feature. You don't need a screen shot to answer this question.

Get a life, cad2go !

Hey Andrew,

Here is some feedback from our users of the Chess game (the only part we use at our forums):

Quote:

There doesn't seem to be an efficient way to know if it is your move. You have to go all the way and load the game in order to find out. if you could shortcut the game or even the game list it would help, but it seems to be one big php/flash program with no way to link to a separate game.

Quote:

Something is broken because we cannot see other games. Maybe the "paid version" is better?

Quote:

It seems we should not move forward this chess program because there seems no way to watch others play or even look at their end position. Lame.

Andrew, are these issues fixed in the paid version?

Based on the test results and comments on the the Chess feature of The Gameroom, we plan to uninstall this add-on feature next weekend.

We will keep an eye out for the next releases of Chess add-ons for vBulletin and hopefully, a future release will be more playable for our users. We don't mind to pay for an enjoyable, really playable add-on, but even the paid version is not "enjoyable and playable" because it simply does not have the basic features required for forum users who are professionals and also want to play Chess with other forum members when time permits.

I worked extensively with this add-on, going thru just about every line of the PHP code for the game board and chess games (we are not interested in the other games). Even after fixing so many broken features, our users commented:

(1) The flash interface for Chess was "clunky" and did not let them return directly to a game in progress. It took far too long to re-enter a game (I changed the code so this was possible because without hacking the code, it was not even possible to return to a game!!)

(2) The game is not fun or interesting because others, not even admins, can observe anothers game. Not even Admins!

(3) We had to hack the Chess board mod extensively just so users could actually leave the gameroom and do something else without the computer deleting the game!

(4) The PHP code base is an absolute mess. There are database fields and PHP var conflicts that are very hard to debug. I don't think I have ever seen such disorganized and unstructured PHP code on any vB mod.

As mentioned, we look forward to a future release that is more playable. The developer's comments back to me and our users to is basically to (1) discount the opinions of our users and (2) make an excuse that the Chess program is only one of many programs. (I am not sure how that is relevant to anything, because none of the programs are very good either, and our users are professionals and are only interested in Chess, not low resolution gambling, slots, poker, etc - plus we honor all Terms of Service (TOS) and gambling sites of any form violate Google's TOS).

In closing, it is sad that there is still no decent "really enjoyable" (playable) Chess add-on for vBulletin. We hope a future release is "playable" by professionals, not merely a type of toy that is more of a novelty (direct user comments), than a useful add-on to a forum.

Installed Gameroom last night - excellent mod, thank you very much! :)

Unfortunately, when Gameroom is enabled it stops VBClassified from working for everyone but Administrators. Disable Gameroom and VBClassified works fine. Anyone any ideas as to what could be causing this? Thanks.

EDIT: Problem solved, just me being a complete moron....

That really won't help anyone in the future. You should let us know what caused it and how you fixed it.

It was down to vBa CMPS permissions set on vbClassified: only admin could access vbClassified. Any other registered user couldn't. When I tried to access it with the last mod (Gamesroom) disabled I accessed it successfuly but only because I'd forgotten to log out as an administrator: hence me being a moron and it really having nothing to do with a great trouble free (for me so far) addition to the forum. :)

Just a quick question. And sorry if it has been answered before.

I am still using the settings file from one of the earlier versions.

I installed the newest version tonight.

Are there any changes in the settings file that would neccesitate the upgrading of the settings file?

How much of a strain is this on a shared hosting package like on Hostgator? Any thoughts?

Great Mod - thanks. I was wondering will there be any Vbadvanced modules available in the near future? It's just that I think the banner is a little over-powering and with everything else I've got at the top of the board it's beginning to look a little cluttered.

I don't think there have been that many reports of bugs. Mostly people have been requesting functions it doesn't have. I have a mod conflict with something, but other than that, it seems to be working for most people.

Should there be sound in the games, such as Roulette or slots?

No, sound is intentionally very limited. Notifications that it is your turn, warning that you are turn is going to time out, messages, people entering the room, etc.

Hi andrew, great mod just one problem.

I used vBCredits, and users don't seem to win any money? They win on poker, or blackjack, it takes the money from their account but it doesn't put the winnings in there.

How do I fix this? is it a bug?

I believe that if you see an open event you would just select the option result you wish to bid on, and a popup window will appear asking for your bet amount.

Are you asking how to create a new betting event?

Is there some sort of deal we can arrange so I can just get what I need for No Limit Hold 'Em? Maybe I can give you $10 or something. I just don't see a value in spending $45 just for one feature. There's really nothing else that my community wants improved, so I'm just seeing what you're willing to do.
