Major Additions - Casino (w/ 10 player poker)

The Gameroom is the follow up to this, and expands on its features. This mod will no longer be supported, Gameroom is here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=219483

This is a casino addition for vBulletin, so far containing video poker, blackjack, Slots, a lottery, Let 'em Ride, Roulette and a betting pool.

It can use it's own cash as well as cash fields from other products for easy integration. Cash bonuses are also awarded for various actions (posting, starting threads, etc.), you can alter the bonus values through the admincp.

Each of the 10 games can be turned on or off through the control panel, and the casino can be restricted by user group.

I'd consider this a test run, everything should work, but some of the template's and all of the phrasing are not done yet.

Screenshots are attached.

If you want to see a demo, it's live at http://vbgaming.org, it does require registration though as it needs a userid to attach your money too Bug reports and requests can also be posted there, and will probably have less chance of getting buried in this rather massive thread. If you are having a problem, please look there. If it is one that others have been having, there will likely be a solution there (as well as in this thread, just harder to find here)

v 0.90 (Jan 6)
- Fixed a bug in lottery odds calculation that was casuing problems with the jackpot.
- Completed Phrasing of all games & admincp
- Removed card flicker some people experienced in Texas Hold'em
- Removed unused table limit setting from Video Poker settings
- Handled a DB error that occasionally came out of the slots game
- Sports Pool groups are now edited through the game, not the admincp
- Blackjack: Dealer checks for blackjack on A or 10
- Blackjack: Added Five card charlie rule
- Texas Hold'em: poker mod groups can now use the command "/kick username" to kick people out of the game. If a hand is in progress it counts as a forced fold, not returning their share of the pot.
- Blackjack - Fixed bug on bet amount when splitting more then once on a hand

v 0.91 (Jan 13)
- Added missing field for holdem mod groups to settings table
- Removed 0.90 test code of drawin same numbers in lottery
- Piped all the ajax files through casino.php, this should solve some of the conflicts people where having (ex. mkportal)
- Added missing link to add / edit groups in sports pool
- Fixed extra \'s in chatbox some users where getting
- Added a reset cash button in the ACP
- Fixed a bug where the blackjack_dealt table wasn't getting cleared properly
- Fixed "Most Lost" stat calculation


v 0.92 (Feb 18)
- Fixed Default Cash not saving
- Texas Hold'em no longer shows hand after folding
- Texas Hold'em buttons should not reappear after clicking if a request was in progress when they where clicked
- Fixed some of the reinstall issues people have been having

This is pretty minor, working on some major changes to the Texas Hold'em game that are taking longer then I planned due to other things coming up.

Known issues:
- The same player attempting to play more then one instance of the same game at the same time will cause errors.

To update overwrite all of the old files and import the product, revert any modified (casino) templates and don't forget the files in other folders Also some of the images have changed, those need uploaded again. (as well as the includes and admincp files) You DO NOT need to uninstall the previous version to upgrade, this will cause problems. Just overwrite existing files and import the product again, allowing overwrite.

**Make sure you overwrite ALL existing files and revert ALL casino templates**

I have a couple of questions though:

1.) I've vBA running. Now I want to integrate this in the sidebare so I have to edit the casino.php and add these lines:

define('VBA_PORTAL', true);
define('VBA_PAGE', 'RSide');

If I don't, all is working fine. If I do, I get this error notice:

Error is coming from VBA code, not casino. I have no idea as I don't use that product.

2.) In the lottery I put it to 40 numbers. But I would like to get 6 numbers drawn, but that isn't possible, maximum 5. Why?

to be perfectly honest, with 6 x 40 you'd be looking at odds of about 1 in 4 million, didn't think anyone would want it that high. From what I have seen I think most are only using 3 balls with a range of 15-20.

I can increase that with the next set, there really wasn't a reason, but with those numbers you will get very few people winning anything.

3.) How can I change the amount of winnings? Now the Casino Jackpot for the lottery is 817685 and I would like to adjust this, same as with some other prices, how is this done?

It increases as people buy tickets, and is calculated for a payout of 100% over time. There is no way to manually set it as it is based on the number of balls and the range of numbers.

4.) Foud a little bug, in the Let 'em Ride the title Let 'em Ride is ok, but in the forumlink it says:
Myforums->casino->Let 'em Ride

Yes, this has been fixed with the next release. Internet explorer quirk.

No where right now, once phrases are in place you would edit the phrase.

You will get a display under the navbar saying how many people are in the Texas Hold'em game if that is what you are after. But if no one is in there you won't see it.

Change the plugin "casino players in poker" to this:

$pokertimeout = time() - 30;

$result = $db->query_read("SELECT count(userid) AS np FROM casino_texasholdem_whoisin WHERE lastcheck > $pokertimeout");

$row = $db->fetch_array($result);

$inpoker = $row[np];

and put "$inpoker" wherever you want the number to show up. However this is just players in the poker game, not the single player games.

[DieselMinded]

That seems to be working great !! Thank YOU !! do you know how to remove the [] from the nav bar if no ones in poker ?

Never mind its showing [0] thats cool
