Hey Bud...

Well, I did a fresh install of beta3 3.7 and added vbookie w/ Pauls 1 change and it worked just fine. I was able to add multiple events, edit them, bet on them (with the default vbookie vcash system).... make private bets, settle events and payouts all worked just fine.

Seems to me like it works just fine, but who knows, it may conflict with other hacks. All I know is that it works fine by itself on a fresh install.

That's great news! Thanks for providing feedback on your test, I'll make sure to post my results once I get vBCredits 1.4 final in the next couple of days.

lol.. I was just going to mess around with vBCredits to see if I could get it working on 3.7 Beta3 with vbookie. Im seriously thinking about going back to Icash tho.

Does this work with 3.6.8

where can I find a newer version?

yes, it works fine with 3.6.8 This IS the latest version and the author has shown no interest in supporting it or updating/upgrading.

I know it can be made to work, and I am using it now and have been for a long time, but still has a few flaws that will never be addressed and more will appear in the future as it gets older and vBulletin grows.

Are there any alternatives to vBookie available or on the horizon?

While this is a free mod and no one is or should be forced to support something released here, I find it more than somewhat "odd" that the "author" on this port won't pass the development along to someone willing to take it to the next level like the original creator did in the first place.

Has anyone tried to contact Daren "Rico" Chandisingh?

Although some folks will say yes... I will warn you!!! This MOD has a few issues that just plain do not work correctly... and there are things that are deeply needed, but there is no one to update it...

So, be warned. I had this installed on my 3.6.8 PLII and running it for a few months... I recently had a problem with my forum and had to do a clean install. I am now using the simple sports betting in the Casino MOD for 3.6.x. Here are some things that I noticed that turn me away from this MOD:

* When you setup massive games to bet on, be prepared to CONSTANTLY edit them, up to the day of the game... something is constantly changing the settings (usually the time, date and timezone)... which is really annoying, but important.

* There is ZERO capability to edit past settings or current bets. Meaning the admin is very limited. If someone accidently bet on the wrong selection.. too bad. There is no way to edit that.

* Listing current and past bets (active, settled, closed) is very hard to navigate... and for members that are new... it is annoying trying to explain it. This portion needs serious re-work IMO...

There are alot of things that could be updated or changed... but there is no one to help because....


It is not supported... So install at your own risk!!!

Everytime I change the admins permissions to yes on all of the vBookie options, I save it then go back and they're set to no. So no one can create an event/bet.

you need to rebuild your bit fields....
