I have 90% of the html/templates converted - and about 30% of the PHP code converted (:

Although, when I do release my version, it'll be beta - the one thing with vB4 I'm still iffy on is the no tables (first version will still be using tables in some areas).

Nice. vB4 seems to have presented a lot of issues to coders.

Good luck to you and thanks for committing to re-making this great mod.

There have been many people on thread who have requested some great features to be implemented. Hopefully you will consider some of those.

The one I'd like to see is the ability to do one on one betting. (I bet you 50K that x will beat y)

In the vbookie page, it shows the event with the links for *thread* and *info*, but the link for *delete* is gone, and when either of the other 2 links are clicked, it brings you to an error page.

I had that happen and had to go into the database and delete the event using the event ID.

Will you be making it compatible (out of the box) for 3.8.4?

This will be for vB4 only, as this should work with 3.8 with the posted fixes.

My main priority is getting it converted and released first - then I'll go from there as far as new features It'll need some testing before I'm comfortable adding new features.

When do you plan on releasing vBookie 4.0?

As far as I'm concerned anyone is free to hack up my original code and modify it to suit vBulletin 4. I also want vBookie on my own forum once I upgrade it to 4.0, but after spending all day coding PHP, I tend to spend my free time playing Team Fortress 2.

Rather than modifying the old code though, I might just write a new version from the ground up, since my coding's better now than it was 5 years ago. That said, I wouldn't advise anyone to hold their breath waiting for me, as I've been thinking about it for ages, and haven't actually done anything yet...

Does this mean we have to work from the 3.0 code base, or can we extend Andreas' work?

I got ths working under vbulletin 4.0 a month or so back based on Andreas' port and requested, but never got permission from Andreas to release it ...
