Add-On Releases - vBookie for vBulletin 4

Please See the first post for a F.A.Q.
I will endevour to link to useful posts within this thread there as I spot them. You should check there before posting issues etc.

This is a port of vBookie for vBulletin 3.5 by Andreas which was a port of vBookie - vBulletin Betting Hack by tjdrico. Permission was given by tjdrico to port this.

vBookie is a 'bookmakers' or betting extension to vBulletin. It enables authorised members to post Events and Outcomes that forum members can bet on. Each Outcome has its own set of odds, and odds can be modified through the life of an Event (bets that are placed are stored with the prevailing odds, so even if the odds change, your users are paid at the correct rate).

Once the results are known, Events can be settled and forums members awarded their winnings.

vBookie uses its own vCash by default, but this has no more use than as 'bragging rights'.

Although vBookie does not have any built-in facility to integrate with any other store hacks, it's a very simple job to hack vBookie itself to integrate it with any store/points system you care to use.

You might of tried this already, but I had the same problem, I deleted it in the admincp, the re-installed it from the beginning, and now it's working fine, no idea what happenend, but it might work for you too if you haven't tried already.

[dartho]

Is this a new install or an upgrade?

I'm updating my test site to 4.1.10 now to check for issues.

[dartho]

Just tested on my site (upgraded to 4.1.10) - no issues that I can see ...
