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**

Wait until you start getting the "I need more cash" PM's. It's a total P.I.T.A.!

But still, great add-on! They love it!

Im gonna give you the benefit of the doubt in guessing that you mistyped in some way.
Because it would boggle the mind to think that someone finds that a mod maker updating his creation on a constant basis... is a bad thing.

In case i havent said so, big thanks to Andrew the creater of this mod.
My small forum is having loads of fun asking me for more money

Just a few humble suggestions. (excuse me if they have already been suggested)

1. Hold'Em seems a bit glitchy to my users, the game slows down, drops players in the middle of the hand, takes everyone back out to the "start game" screen that informs you about ajax. If you click start game you get right back into the game, but its pretty annoying.
Possibly might just be my server or database that has a problem if this hasnt been reported by anyone else.

2. Adding a "Who is playing Texas Hold Em" feature, as in the CMPS module... for those of us who dont use CMPS. Or at least a "Who is in the Casino" feature.

3. The option to disable the chat feature in the Hold Em area.
Or as a better option, for the chat feature to dump all posts into a single dedicated Hold Em thread in the forum. The way some shoutboxes operate.

4. A complaint from one of my users that might help.... "It's just that the big blind is first to act and can raise before the small blind calls the minimum, thats not how it should be".

5. Keep up the good work! :up:

Updated and still loving this mod!

Thanks so much for the quick fixes Andrew... Everything appears to be working great! I did notice since I updated to .81 that games are showing up on the list that I have unchecked as active. Was that meant to be? Of course when a member clicks on it, it gives the normal vb warning about you don't have access... but it could be confusing to some newbies. Again, thanks for the great product... my members love it!

$result = $db->query_read("SELECT * FROM casino_games  WHERE active = 1 ORDER BY gamename");
while ($row = $db->fetch_array($result))

I have already this problem

Thank Andrew for the update !

Ha! That fixed me! Perhaps Andrew could make that permanent in the program so we don't have to change that on every update. And I am certainly not complaining about the updates... I just wished that some other authors would update their stuff... Excellent support Andrew!!!
