Gambler NPC - 2D/3D version *updated*

[TimberRidge]

just want to let ye know this script would freeze players clients, even though they was no where near the npc. This started happig with the new client 4.0.1a since I've remove the gambler the freezing of clients have stoped.

I run client 4.0.1a and Zulus gambler script with no problems. Works perfectly well and since our connector utility has our players using 4.0.1a also..I've had no complaints from players either in reference to locking.

Only comments from players as far as the Gambler is concerned is "COOL!"

Did you add any other scripts in at the same time or around the same time that may be effecting the game for you?

I have tested client 4.0.1a and my latest gambler script with no problems found.

Whatfor?, said the players would freeze up clients when they went near the npc. There was no one playing cards or anyone near.

Okay i screwed up my post sorry.

I had blackjack. The dealer went on and drew his cards and got 21. I should have still won becuase I had blackjack. He shouldnt have taken cards because i had blackjack, its an automatic win.

Also what happened to the SPLIT lol and insurance

 

[Kamron]

I fixed the blackjack problem, but I didnt add split or insurance. Both are sucker bets anyways

If you want I can send you what I changed?

Gamblers only work in Guarded Region

Gamblers only work for players in town, if they are outside the guarded region, for example someones house or a GM made casino outside town - the gamblers do not respond to players. But if you make a gambler inside town they respond.

I looked over the script and see no reference to guarded regions so not sure why this is a problem but definetely a bug.

Great and Fun Script. I put the new cards in and they work nice. I had gthe cards in before from a previous verdata patch. Easy to fix with Michelangelo.


Blackjack works great, no complaints. Poker however is weird.
I was testing this solo. Is this a multi PC game, or is this intended to play against the NPC only? While testing, it seemed less like poker and more like a slot machine.
If I got a pair of 10's or higher, I won my money back. If I got 3 of a kind, I got more money. I am guessing this was scripted without a care what the dealer gets, and simply goes by your cards and if you beat a certain pair, etc...

Is this correct?

Sounds like it's set up as Video Poker.

 

[Zulu]

Yeah, I created the poker to work like video poker. I am writing a new version for version b36, one script and players can select what cards to display.

OT: I just created a slot machine, based on actual Las Vegas algorithms. This takes in to actual odds and the jackpot, can't be won multi times a day.

If you get 3 magic hats, then you get a magic show bonus. Where you can win a bunch of different items.

XxSP1DERxX, can you send me a copy of the fixes you put in. I am creating a new version and I would like to put in your changes.

 

[Zulu]

I have put the blackjack / poker script into the different playing cards. Our shard has a lot of playing cards located at INN's. I deleted the gambler NPC and the blackjack/poker are now working on all the different cards. I have NOT posted these updates yet.

Here is the picture of the magic bouns...

Zulu,

Great work!

I am working on custom game graphics for in game activities, like gambling and the like.

If you have time, please contact me via ICQ or email. I was working with Voran, but it might be good if you got involved as well, plus he's in the UK which makes our times incompatible.
