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**

Andrew, a nother question about the Casino Lottery... my users are getting very frustrated because they are spending hard earned credits (we use vbcredits) on lottery tickets, but they are claiming it is unfair and cheats! To this day, there has been no winners. It is set at 3 tickets, draw 25 on wednesday's. Last night another drawing happened. Of course I am the admin and can't see what happened. I had about 10 people purchase tickets... In my thinking, how on earth does this program NOT have a winner in about 4 months... pulling 25 numbers and no one getting 3 of those numbers. Now the bad part... if you pull up the past drawings, you see 3 numbers... Where is the 25 numbers that it was suppose to pick? Or, does the program pick 3 numbers out of the 25 and the members's ticket has to match that? If that is so... the odds are overwhelming and that needs to be changed or something...

They are also upset that they have to write down their numbers, because the program loses them after the drawing... Since members can vary in how many tickets they purchase, perhaps there could be an option in the lottery to PM yourself the numbers?

Lastly, I am watching the jackpot and it is still not adding properly. Each ticket costs 10 credits... when you purchase a ticket, the jackpot raises only 5. And once again, the jackpot was close to 7K credits, after last night's drawing, the jackpot is now 6.3K.

Thanks for any help....

Anyone want to help? Otherwise I am gonna have to shut off the Lottery...

I installed this hack and love it!

How do you create a Sports Betting event? I checked in the admin and on the casino.php page but I don't see a place to add an event...

I just upgraded to .91 and I still don't see where I can create a new Sports betting event..

Dude, the lottery works just fine. I just think you don't have a very good understanding what a LOTTO is from reading your post about it... Sounds to me like what you really want is more of a Raffle (which is built into vbcredits).. Raffles have a winner each time. I've had 2 lotto winners since I've first installed, so the system DOES work and it works the way a lotto is supposed to... Look at the American Lotto (Power Ball) ... there isn't a multi million dollar winner every week.... its a rare thing and millions of tickets are sold..

Where would I edit to change the money to points, Casino_cash to Casino_points?

Hi great hack

Here is a thing all my current (already registerd) users have $300 as default. But when a new users registers starts at 0 . This way i have to add for each new user 300$ by hand.

How can i set it like when new user registers and does his/her email confirmation, he/she will get the default 300$?

my allowed user groups are: 5, 6, 7, 9

thanks

Although I agree with you, I was wondering where the other half of the ticket price goes with this system? I mean, since it isn't being used for schools and whatnot

Check your casino settings, you can set the default amount of cash for posting, repping, registering, etc.

i know that and have already done that. actual everytime i put on default and when i re-enter the casino settings it goes back to 0 again.

I just want my new users to get the points by default

Thanks,

That was never a built in feature, but a extra little piece from here:

You just need to make the template change again.

In the admincp you set up which user groups can edit events on the casino games page, then you will have a "add event" button.

Reupload files, make sure templates haven't been altered, if that doesn't do it send me a link to the site.

The whole thing is phrases, just edit the phrases.

It is a known bug, will be fixed with the next update. there is a patch a few pages back, as well as here: http://vbgaming.org/forum/showthread.php?t=133

If you join a table with some v then lose it all it seems to still deal you in the next hand and kinda hangs with you clicking the 'ready' button forever. i appreciate being able to call on 0 though.

I found I had to click ready, raise or call a couple of times(twice) on occasion - and not just when the browser had lost focus either.

Not that I've been losing! How dare you!
