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**

As a vBulletin administrator/operator, I am unable or unwilling to utilize the search function on this thread, even though it may result in a speedy answer to my problem.

Instead, I am compelled to ask the author of this free mod to explain for the 801 time why must I drop the casino_cash column and to explain, in detail, the procedures for doing it.

You see, I don't like to trouble myself with searching, and I consider my time to be much more valuable than the authors or any of you. Furthermore, I like to feel special by soliciting a direct response to me and my particular circumstance.

So, even though great time and diligence has already been spent on my behalf in the creation and support of this mod, I am asking for you all to stop, pay attention to me, and my problem because I am too lazy or too ignorant to utilize any search features of vBulletin, or to page back and read what has already been discussed.

Any possibility of this Andrew?

Well, since I am getting ZERO help onmy last issue, I suppose posting this isn't going to do much good... The Let em Ride quit working. It was working and now when you select it, it doesn't do anything but give you a balnk screen. Also, I thought this new version was suppose to quit displaying games that are not selected? All the games are displayed, but I have unchecked the Sports Betting and the Lottery since it is screwed up...

Are we gonna get any support?

Never mind I uninstalled it and removed it from the DB and reinstalled, all is working now.

Ouch, you have a problem, we get it! Demanding help for a free mod? Humm not sure we understand that. If it does not work then remove, if you really want to make it work then be a little more courteous to the people that spend countless of hours developing a free mod.

...and for the record, I know he has a valid point, but feel his subtilty may be lost in the translation.

After the drawing and no winners, it went down to 1,200. Again, there have been no winners, but the balance is always around 1,500 now. I see no settings to control the balance like there was in an earlier version. Can that be explained and fixed. If there are no winners, the balance should be carryied forward, along with an amount that the admin can add... so the balance is always worth buying tickets for... My users almost quit using it cause the balance is screwy and never worth purching a ticket for... especially when there are zero winners...

There never was a option to change the jackpot, are you sure you are not mixing up this lottery with the vbcredits lottery?

If you are getting a blank screen, chances are something is missing or has been altered. Check your templates, reupload the files, etc.

Remember this is a free mod, and in beta, and you are demanding support issues get less then 24 hours turn around on Christmas Day and Boxing Day. So my question to you, is would you be available for 24 h turn around on something you developed for free, even on major holidays?
