I don't understand why? It can't be all that difficult can it? Seems like someone who is actually around to support it could clean up with a better supported similar mod, you have people paying $45 to a guy who isn't even around - imagine what you could bring in if you charged $20-$25 and actually supported it.

completely agree,I got the gameroom pro version when it came out and at first suppport was good,bugfixes and new games fairly often,then it just went dead,if anyone could take this over and continue with bugfixes and new games and features it would be amazing.

Even if some other coders could find a way to add games it would really bring this thing back to life.

As it is now its still not a bad mod to have on site,me and many users have had a lot of great games that brought a lot of members closer and added some good activity on times we would schedule games,for now we just deal with the minor bugs and prey for an update

im running 4.0.5 and i installed this mod and it will not work...the gameroom gets added to my navbar and i can click on it and it displays the gamroom but no games or anything is displayed.

I am ready to sing the praises of this add ons development and renewal of activity I was hoping to see more forthcoming with the 4.0X release.
Thankfully I have vbookie to rely on now for sports betting I am wondering if switching back to vbcredits will resolve the creating a user issue ? it seemed like it was the game room cash that caused the error.

Thanks.

I did not go back and find the plug in, but I did uninstall and reinstall on 4.06 after upgrading and reactivating vbcredits and using it as the cash typing credits in place of cash. so far everything is working and I no longer have the adding a new user issue, I'm guessing it has something to do with the initial cash given.

This was the easiest install I have ever done...thanks
