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**

Then upload the files in the includes folder to the includes folder that is already on your site)

Remember...just the files...not the whole folder.

The navbar link will show up even if you put the files in the wrong place.

If this doesn't help check back and I'll help you find out what files you are missing.

thanks for the help. , done that, still no joy, I have emailed my host, they have been great.....so far, sure they are tiring of me!!
if no joy with them, ill get back to you , thanks again

Did you did Import the xml file from... Admin CP / Plugin & Products / Manage Products/ Add/Import Product... and install it as a product?

That's the only other thing I can think of.

Files in the right place and the xml file installed as a product should provide the joy.

PM me if you have a question, I installed this mod a little over a month ago so my memory still stands a chance at this point.

Best of luck.

Working pretty well on 3.7.3. I'm trying to get the lottery to work to no avail and a manual run of the lottery cron just hangs.

All else seems fine so far.

More games to play in my forums

[SBlueman]

Members on my site are complaining that the Poker room keeps refreshing and members are getting kicked out of the game. Is there anyone else who has had this problem and does anyone know a solution?

[chuky151]

I've modified the code to add a multi card chute with variable penetration to the BLackJack game and code to preserve the original sequence of the video poker cards.

Hit me up if your interested in the code.

Where is the reload delay?

[dirtyboxing]

The reload delay is admin cp/casino/game settings/texas holdem/Reload delay (in milliseconds)

I think everyone has a problem with getting kicked out of holdem. Shared servers more than dedicated, but dedicated with high server loads is just as bad. Adjusting the reload delay seems to have little effect. You can however, limit the number of players which makes a huge difference. I am on a shared server and 6 people can play all night with few or no errors. When I get 8 or more at the poker table it gets real bad. Those with slow internet connections seem effected most. There is no solution in this thread.

For the die hard fans like my members...when you see your cursor turn to an hourglass hit "back" and then "forward" on your browser as fast as you can...and you will only lose the chat in the chat box...not your cards.

It sucks that this happens...but my members would kill me if i un-installed this mod.

chuky151, I have no idea what you are talking about. What was wrong with blackjack and poker that warranted a code mod?
