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 shall refrain from launching into one of my big spiels about it, since this isn't the place. But suffice to say I have had an elegant sufficiency of it!

Thank you Andrew, once again, for yet another fantastic update, and I love the roulette. This mod is amazing work.

Like the old saying goes

you can please some of the people some of the time

but

you can not please all the people all the time

The biggest problem here i think is people dont under stand BETA

and even when this product is 100% there will be people complaining about something

and even when it is the users fault they will have to point a finger some where and Andrew

will be a good one to point at

Good mod Andrew

Don't get me wrong, I couldn't build something of this magnitude, but this seems like a half-done job.

This MOD is still in BETA stage, which means there will be bugs that the coder continues to clean up through the help of everyone else's testing of the MOD. Andrew answers to all bugs that are found and he updates the MOD frequently. This is an awesome MOD and the final product should be even better.

Keep up the great work Andrew.

Well, I never claimed it was done. the version is listed at 0.70, and I'd say about 70% done is right.

This is also a free product, and is not my job. I work full time, teach evening classes, have a girlfriend, etc. This is a small piece of my time, and to be perfeclty honest works quite well. 405 installs and over 50% of the votes for MOTM this month. Not bad for a release that is less then 2 months old.

Now this is free, it gets maybe 5-10 hours programming a week, that's all I got for it. Releasing as a Beta through development gives me hundreds of hours of testing across hundreds of boards by thousands of users. Bugs get fixed much faster this way and I can spend time adding new things rather then spending all my time testing.

But hey, 400 installs, if everyone wants to put $10 / month I'd consider doing this flltime. But for now, suck it up princess.

Hey, regarding the roulette table, a few members have said that the payout on the roulette isn't working properly.

Here is the post he sent to me, I hope maybe it can shed some light and that this issue hasn't been brought up already.

Roulette didnt pay out on the Black 6. It gave me that weird decimal # again. It did give me back what I bet, but didnt pay out. I had 10 inbetween 6-7 which would pay me 5 -35 on the 6. and I had 500 on black which would have paid $1000. then I had 175 on the first 12 which would have paid 3-1. It gave me back the money I had on the table as the winning bet and put .1857 something. I guess it didn't add it to my winnings as full money, but as a decimal point. It took all the losing cash and didnt pay winnings once again. I think it was black 6 yesterday that it did that on too.

Any ideas?

Thanks again.

Thanks again.

I might get a chance to look into this tonight or tomorrow, depending on what's going on. I'll have something by the end of the weekend at the latest.

You just got 10 bucks from me, as a small token of appreciation. You're doing a GREAT job and I thank you for that, and of course I already voted your Casino for the MOTM!

Best regards

Andrew, I reloaded the product, casino.php, and all the Casino folder files and my error is resolved.

It would be nice if there were text explaining what was won or lost on the Roulette table, though.
