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**

Hey Andrew, not that I want to create more work for you, lol, but here's a suggestion, in slots, where it shows you the payouts on the right, it would be nice to flash or blink the payout won in that list. just kinda a nice to have

Andrew -- Amazing. Thank you. I am going to send some paypal love your way. This has to be the best mod I have ever seen (no offense to anyone else) but this mod is incredible.

Has anyone tried to integrate this with VCash? I use VBookie but I am not sure how to use casino yet keep our same cash.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

change the casthype to "vbookie_cash" in the admincp options to use vbookies cash.

If the member is using IE, it just kind of freezes on them.

Tests tonight have shown this happens to me too.

IE users find they press a button and the buttons vanish and the game stops. Others in the game see them as having left the game.

First line of the file sportspool.php:

<?php
$maxoutcomes = 10;

set it to whatever you like.

First of all, I love this hack and thank you very much for it.

I just have a question. I'm trying to make a link on the casino page to vbookie. I know I have to edit the XML for it, how would I got about adding that link? I want the link to replace the already existing betting pool with vbookie.php.

Thanks for your time and for this product.

in the casino_index_main template find

$t_games

Below it add:

<tr>
<td class='alt$i'>
<a href='vbookie.php'>VBookie</a>
</td>
<td class='alt$i'>
Description here
</td>
</tr>

Dissable the sportspool in the admincp.

Usually better to not alter xml files, but to edit the templates after installing.
