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**

The existing games all "work" in the new environment. some need a little more testing and cosmetic stuff. The poker plays with no-limit, limit and pot limit rules, and has quite a few more options for game creation, which is now in the users hands (multiple games can be running at once), Uses avatars where available instead of card backs until the show down, can play with fixed stake and multipliers (ex everyone puts in $100, starts with $25,000)

It's getting there, but not finished yet.

That sounds WONDERFUL!

Could someone please explain what folders and or files should be uploaded and to where exactly. I am an novice here and tried uploading but obviously made mistakes as saw nothing. Importing the product file in admin CP I understand but uploading what folders, files and to where in directory is where I am confused. Go easy on this newbie.

[towermatt]

This would have to do with your actual server blastme.

You should have access to upload files to it. Depending on where your forum is, you upload most of the files there per instruction. It's really straight forward file management.

It's been a while since I uploaded it so PM me with specifics if you need help.

Yes I have FTP access to cpanel if that is what you mean.


>>"Upload the "casino.php" file and "casino" folder into the same folder as your forum."


The above goes into your forum folder ?



>>"upload the files in the admimcp folder and includes folder"



Do you upoload the admincp/include folders that came with the download zip file or do you upload the files contained in the admincp/folder ? if its the folders where do they go and if its the files in the folders where do they go ?


TIA

So the first instruction is telling you to upload the casino.php into the same folder your forum is in. That way you have a an address to go to. Mine is

http://www.thedarktower.com/palaver/casino.php

"palaver" is my forum folder--Put the "casino" folder in there as well

After that you will load files to folders already existing. So every thing in the downloaded AdminCP folder goes into your existing AdminCP folder in your forum folder.

Everything in the Includes folder from the download-goes into Includes existing on your server.

So you are just moving files into existing folders at that point. Get it all done and you should be good to go if you have uploaded the product.xml
