Why are you talking about money? I appreciate your offer, but I'm confused as to why I would finance something that other people will be able to have for free. (I'm not completely against it, I just seem to be missing part of the logic. No offense intended.)

dude this wwould be really big not 3 to 4 people/ if your willing to take on something like this just hook it up real nice. try to work it as a vbulletin addon instead of strictly vbulletin kinda like photopost scripts/ so there stand alone as well. then make your stand alone version packed with more stuff like mulitble rooms. create your own rooms. stats and stuff like thatg i am sure theres alot of little addojns you could do and then charge for the full version thats either standalone or works with vb. and then just make a small version for vb to market the product.. then your getting paid and praise at the same time//

I will commit to at least a 50 dollar donation if I end up using it Trigun.. I'm not funding something that will be open source.. But you can count of a donation for a hack of this size

for the record - this thread has gone almost 100 posts without any serious headway, the original poster hasn't spoken in over 2 weeks, and as far as I am concerned - this thread is a waste of time. If someone has a decent proposal, I am going to jump this ship and go to the next thread that is started about it.

Hey, here's an idea - we start a new site devoted to our cause. I'll take the first step.

Ive seen the software installed on a site already so someone is selling it

Incorrect.

thank you Romeo :D

Great we have a coder interested.

Now we need someone that is willing to set up a pay pal account for this...any takers? As promised in this thread I will send about $150 when it is set up.

Sorry guys, I know I haven't been around in a few weeks, I got laid off from work, and my wife gave birth to our second child, so I've been a little busy.

The original company I was working with on getting this coded totally changed their pricing when I asked for a offical quote. What they said they could do in 30-45 days now they said will take 2-3 months, and their monthly rate also went up. So this would end up being 3 times as much as I originally stated, so we won't be dealing with them.

So I'm back to square one on this now. :cross-eyed:

I see that Trigunflame has offered to start coding this, and I think this is a good solution.

Im willing my board wants this really bad..but where do we start?

I see that somebody has a domain for this, which I think is a good idea.

We should put up a private vbulletin forum with a paid membership of $200. People who are interested in contributing would signup and their $200 would go toward the development and intergration of the software.

All paid members that signup would be an active part of QA during the development. The programmer(s) would intergrate all beta versions directly into this particular vbulletin forum and recieve feedback from contributing members. Or something along those lines.

We need somebody willing to take on the responsibility of collecting and holding payment. Will refunds be possible without incurring paypal fees? If there will be fees in the event of a refund, are all contributors willing to have this deducted from their contribution? Contributors must enter into some sort of agreement.

We still need a quote and a developer that is willing to begin work with a low up front payment. We could release a percentage of the funds upon seeing some solid visual evidence that the developer(s) are capable of completing this project. Then the rest upon completion.

I think this would be a good way to get the ball rolling...

I think the more that we all keep stating that we will donate ?/$200 or more then surely the coder is going to hang back and get the highest fee they can, we need a coder to state how much this will charge then divede that by the the number of end users, looks like the above company just got greedy, I'm all in for donating money but would like to see an end figure or at least an estimate

Ok, Texas Holdem is what I am loooking for as a plug in for my site. Any progress on making this happen.

I am in for $200.

Since we are financing this, why don't we sell it instead of giving it away. We are paying a coder to code it. Set up a site and sell it. Make our money back.

Remember money talks, BS walks. I got my $200 cash in hand.

Guess this is a dead issue. Sigh

This was ask when vB 3.0.0 was out and maybe before. I have only seen con jobs when people try to get this off the ground.

I hope nobody gets burn here.

If someone can get it to work so people on my site could play...that would be pimp. I would be willing to major green down if more than one person wants to get in.

I would be against posting the hack on vB unless the coder wants to create the software and license it for $XX amount.

Interested!
Is there no coder on this site willing to code it?

Is this still a live issue?

If it is and there is an option for a real money table then I'm well in 3 -500 wouldn't be a problem, would chip in if there wasn't but my members would still vanish of to real money tables to less interested then.

Given that the software exists elsewhere, and there are some really great coders on here wouldn't it make sense to adopt the approach of semi-commerciality being touted, with the product being sold on at a later date, possibly with a reduction in facility, say a non cash element points only kind of thing?

Just a thought.

Hope it is still an option though.

I am interested.

i'd be interested... but as stated, don't everyone say $200 then the coder will think, how much can I get. we need a quote, and then we need it split, then say it'll be availble to 'these' regististed people for $xxx each

Any chance this could be integrated with the arcade as a 'feature game' up the top of the others?

Oh man, anyone who is interrested in a full mod/plugin/hack pm me with I'm interrested and the value he/she would like to spend on it in the subject (so I don't have to read the PM)

Example subject: I'm interested, texas hold'm, $500

I want to see how much money can be collected with this so I can go and talk with coders.

I'm interested, but would like to see a proposal(s) for the project prior to submitting any moneys.

PM sent

yea i would like more information and would be willing to put up the $200 to become a partner.

I'd put up a hundred or 2 if I knew the final product would be of a good enough standard.

Ok, everybody go to http://www.vbhackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3961 and post that you want this hack!

http://www.vbhackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3961

I just found this thread, but would definitely be interested. Willing to contribute $200 as well.

And again, please look at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=100

Do you want this hack to be made or not? What are you waiting for then? Go to
http://www.vbhackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3961 and let know you want this badly!

:banana:

I would also donate, 100, 200, 300 it really does not matter. If this can be done that kind of money can easily be earned back through the poker system.

If someone please just could make it happen, I would gladly pay for using the mod. BUT i really think that 100 should cover the license per user. IF someone just makes this happen that happy coder will get filthy rich within seconds.

Im willing to put up a few hundred as well.

We're interested and would put up money if needed. Please keep us updated!

I am in also pm me when this happens

<a href="http://www.pluginpoker.com" target="_blank">http://www.pluginpoker.com</a> - integrates with your vB immediately.

how would you integrate this? It says integrates with phpbb.

I'm unsubscribing from this thread, too much talk not enough walk. I have money to invest if anyone gets serious, be sure to PM me.



Until then, I'll look into this.

Somewhere on the site it mentions it integrates with vB.

It didn't at first but they added it after they released the program.

By integration, it means your users are already logged in when they go to the poker lobby. That's all at this point.

Cheers,

~Regs.

yeah theres no way to intergrate with the points system but what sucks even more is it only can handle 5-10 people

15 bucks a month?? Isnt that a bit steep?

I wonder if you can have Multiple 10 player tables going. Who would want more anyways?

But this thread has been going for way too long. I dont see why one of the great plug in coders hasnt taken this one on. Surely would be the biggest hit.

thanks Regs for the info, just signed up for a 10 person table.

YES WE WANT IT! LOL

Mark,
