Casino Mod by BadZombie

[BadZombie]

You've collected the tokens, now come and spend them!

Duke's Casino is a heavily guarded fortress where the adventurous and megarich come to unwind.

The casino is surrounded by a high metal wall and guarded 24/7 by the toughest SOBs in Navezgane, so you can feel warm and safe inside the casino walls.

Inside you will find working slot machines of different wealth levels, as well as three different roulette tables.

There are various NPCs inside to make you feel at home too.

This casino has everything you might find in a typical casino *hint hint*

The NPCs also sell various items.

Although the NPCs act as traders, the POI has no trader protection and is open 24/7.

Every locked door in the POI has a trigger which opens it - you just have to find out where that trigger is...

 

Please report any bugs/problems you find.

 

DISCLAIMER:
This mod was a year in the making.
I am NOT a seasoned modder - a lot of this was a learning experience for me!

The user experience of this mod takes place predominantly via XUi - which is an area that I'm not too familiar with... if you are using a mod which alters the XUi this mod might be incompatible.

Aligning the various interfaces was a painstaking process that took several weeks of incremental refinement!
With this in mind, any modders out there that look at the code and see redundant parts please feel free to reply here to help me improve it.

With this proviso I may be slow to patch any major bugs.

Game version: a21.2 (b30) - Install client and server side.

 

Mod version: 1.3 - Released: 26/11/23

- Fixed a couple of blocks in the POI (block missing outside owners room, block on gaming floor under slot stool not painted)
- Changed the rentable vending machines in the POI to the fuctioning blocks (used incorrect blocks in initial build)
- Overhaul of the Mystery Loot Box items...
    - There are now 3 tier levels:
    - 1 Star: 1 random weapon from quality 1-6
    - 2 Star: 1 random weapon from quality 3-6
    - 3 Star: 1 random weapon from quality 5-6
- Added new item "Mystery Loot Token", used to redeem the loot boxes. Item can be found throughout loot in the world (mailboxes), meaning mystery loot boxes can no longer be purchased, only redeemed by finding these tokens.

Hey guys, a quick update!

 

I developed this mod in single-player only and had never tested it on a dedicated server until today. Within about 5 minutes I noticed a bug with the NPCs - some of them were in a spawnpoint loop, which made the POI unplayable because of framerate drop.

I figured out the problem (within utilityai.xml) and patched it. The latest version (1.2) won't have this problem.

 

For players with an existing world using older versions of the mod the only workaround I can think of would be a chunk reset - but that encompasses a 512x512 area so use with caution.

 

Please continue to post bug reports as it helps me out massively to develop the mod and make improvements!

 

Thanks for the support it has had so far and the comments

For Fallout New Vegas fans, this looks like a *must see*!  Your casino would totally fit in with a New Vegas themed game.

I run a Fallout themed, highly modified, server for a friend that is built around The Wasteland overhaul by bdubyah, and my own custom tweaks.  You can see videos of some of the stuff I've done with it on my friend's YT - TomGirlGamer.  Look for the "Fallout in 7 Days to Die" videos.   

I've been working on making a Washington Monument for a new Capitol Wasteland map.  And if we do a New Vegas map, I may ask to use your casino for the game.

where can i find the casino?

The tags for the prefab are: oldwest, wilderness and commercial.

 

You can see if it has been generated by searching for the POI 'Casino_Plaza' in your newly created world.

 

Alternatively, I play on the PREGEN10K map with the POI placed in a specific location in the desert.

 

You can download that modified map under the miscellaneous files on the Nexus mod page.

 

Lastly, you can add the POI to any existing map using the World Editor.

Your recent update was flagged as suspicious. You may have to re-upload it on Nexus.

 

Latest version of the mod with an update for Christmas slots.

This file has been automatically quarantined and may be unsafe. How can I fix this?

Hey, thanks for posting. I uploaded it earlier today then went out, had no idea it had been flagged.

 

After looking into the issue I discovered I had forgot to remove another .rar file from within the prefabs folder.

I've removed it now and re-upped.
