Additional Ideas for Forum Presentations.

@VLS
Some more ideas for you to consider.

Felt Bet Placement.

For most fellows, describing a bet placement, ends up being just that- a written description.

Telling, all the viewers/readers, to place X chips on why zone, or Cover Numbers A,B,C,E,G with $value.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could  :xd:do the whole description, is a visual manner, as well as the vital nitty-gritty detail that would always accompany the bet suggestion.

He's (In my pigeon code language) how I would imagine it Could go:-

(Assume we are talking about L-E-T-Win bet which is popular at the moment in Forum.

[felt0,1UNIT=Bet Name](1,2,3,4,5,6),(13,14,15,16,17,18),(19,20,21,22,23,24),(25,26,27,28,29,30)[/felt]

Which would give us, a European Single Zero table felt layout, with a L-E-T-Win typical bet of 1 chip/$ on LINES 1,3,4 & 5; and the ability to insert the bet name in the Title.

It should/Could look like this then:-
[felt][/felt]
[attachimg=#]


Probably, more simply put would be

[Felt0=1unit,L-E-T-Win Line Bet]Line1,3,4,5[/felt]

Therefore, we could have Single number flat bets, splits, streets, Lines, Corners, Three, Two, Dozens, Columns, and of course-ALL the EC outside bets.

Okie Chris,

I'm implementing this:

[felt][/felt]

[felt][/felt]

We need to make an agreement as to the format for bet placement.

I propose:

<chips>@<location>

Example:

One unit at number 29:

1@29

Seven units at dozen 2:

7@D2

And also with several locations at once, separated by commas:

3@C1,D3,R

Meaning: 3 units at Column 1 (C1) and also at Dozen 3 (D3) and also at Red (R)

Of course, we can't forget ranges. As in:

5@15-19

Which interprets right as 5 units at each number from 15 to 19.

And combined with new lines as bet separator and commas for values:

[felt]
5@15-19,21,24,29-32
10@R,H,C3
7@S1,Q1/5
[/felt]

[felt]
5@15-19,21,24,29-32
10@R,H,C3
7@ST1
[/felt]

Comments?

[chrisbis]

Looks good to me boss.

Which way are U going to have the table/felt showing?

Long--ways as per my example, or high-ways as per Ur example?

And will there be options for a three types of table:- ?

American- with 1-36, 0,00
European-1-36, 0
No Zero-1-36

How will we show a Line bet?

3@L1     maybe?

there are only 6 possible "Natural" Classic Lines on the table, so would be easy to code for those, and shorter in player implementation:-

10@L1
8@L2
1@L3
3@L4
6@L5
2@L6

Like-wise poss alternative code, for the 12 classic streets

placing 10 chips on street 1-3 could be shown thus:-

10@Str1
[reveal]10 chips on street 1...... #1,2,3[/reveal]

and taking this through some other bets:-
can U work this one out without any further clues?

9@Spl15/18
[reveal]9 chips on split 15/18[/reveal]

or

8@14-18
[reveal]8 chips on corner bet 14,15,17,18[reveal]also known as a 4 way[/reveal][/reveal]

this will enable players to do the cross-link splits\:-

12@2/3
[reveal]12 chips on cross split 2/3[/reveal]

and.......

18@0/2/3
[reveal]18 chips on corner bet 0/2/3[/reveal]


In Ur example, U have

7@S1, Q1/5
which i would initial read as 7 chips on Street 1, and 7 on Quad1,2,4,5

Am I right?

I ask because I did not know that they could be called Quads (for Corner bet)

Also, doesn't using an S for street, althou obvious in someways, could it not set up confusion later if we want to add to the felt bet, a Sector bet from the wheel, since its the table that we bet on, and not the wheel!!

S=Sector............(once all the sectors can be numbered)
Str=Street
/= Split
Spl= Split
- = From and to
L = Line...........(6 number bet)

Hi Chris. Progress on the felt tag:

- Parser is fully done.

Rules:
<value>@<location>

one instruction per line.

currently supported nomenclature for locations:

C1,C2,C3 = columns
D1,D2,D3 = dozens
R,B = red, black
H,L = high, low (1-18, 19-36)
E,O = even, odd
#X-#Y  = range of numbers i.e. 1-7

So, outside bets are ready. Aiming to add straight-up numbers next (-actually they are implemented until #9, too late right now my friend ).

Streets, Double-streets, Quads, Splits are remaining way too much coordinates!!!

[felt]
1@D1,C1,B,L
30@O
425@C3,H
5@2-7,L
[/felt]

outputs:

[felt]
1@D1,C1,B,L
30@O
425@C3,H
5@2-7,L
[/felt]



Please notice: Since I implemented this as a "mini-programming language" using tokens+parser, they add the values upon each other to compound final figure  

Cheers and good night.

Bless you,
Victor

Getting there!!


Zero next boss, and the Double Zero for My cousins of an American persuasion!!!!

Yes, loads of locations yet!

Okie, regarding the roulette types:

default [felt] = Single zero

[felt00] = double zero

[feltn] or [feltnz]= no zero

Good?

[chrisbis]

Err boss.............

isn't it more obvious than that?

[felt]= no zero (cause there is no (zero) showing)

[felt0]=one zero (European style.... 0)

[felt00]= double zero (American wheel.... 0/00)

simple I think, but that's just me!

[chrisbis]

Hows this 'Project' going boss?

Its looks finished. 

Shall i open new Topic and throughly test is?

[chrisbis]

Just a reminder for Victor.

Some tweaking still needed on those zeroes...

Can I make another request for it please?

Is it possible to have the chosen bet placement 'Flash' or 'Pulse' so show that it would be the next result?

I was thinking maybe something like:-


[felt]
1@29F
1@20
[/felt]


and therefore, the Number 20 would be static, and the number 29 would Flash/Pulse?

Possible? YES.

Right now? I'm afraid not.... the felt tag as it is now is based on a static JPG image which gets chips drawn on top of the background.

Jpg images aren't capable of any animation at all.

It may require to implement the felt tag as a flash applet and (oh boy!) let's enjoy finishing this before even considering a full rewrite!!

[chrisbis]

ok boss- just wondered.  

Maybe a transparency overlaid onto it, could do it?

Oh how I wish I had a brain!!
