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**

Mark, it works! Thanks for your quick help!

Andrew, thanks for the casino mode. Can't wait for some more multiplayers games such as Crap and Roulette.

What a great and easy-install mode.

Looks like part of the problem is payouts on Jacks or Better hands (AKA High Pair). The user bets 1000, gets a pair of kings and is paid 2000. In typical casino video poker, the user would only break even (be paid 1000). The payout chart should be multiplied by the bet and that given to the winner.

I just bet 10, got two pair and was paid 30. (In my thinking, I should only get 20 or double my bet).

Maybe this is intentional and if so I can accept that. I just wanted to point ot that it's different than the VP machine at the casinos I go to.

Thanks for this cool hack, my users love it.

Ditto on payouts for Let It Ride.

I see we have now broken 200 installs!

This modification has certainly caught the imagination, and it's extremely popular on my site.

I would hope that this will be a dead cert for the next Mod of the Month award now.

I'll vote it in, its amazing.

I still can't see the field to let others add/edit sports pools but that is minor on this great mod.

not to mention, its probably my fault. Just can't figure out how.

It took me a bit to find it, but if you have uploaded the casino_settings.php file from 0.40 in the admin panel, then go to:

AdminCP > Casino > Casino Settings

It is the third option down (Sportspool admin usergroups)

Thanks Mark,

I did go back and do a full upload and studied that screen shot but the option is simply not there for me, its kind of weird because the instructions are totally straight forward.

scratch that, I got it now!! Thanks for the help.

I take every file in the folder and upload it when I do these but I brought over the one you mentioned one more time and its there. Serious user error somehow.
