Introduction
This Blackjack script is celebrating over two years of existense and I thought that this should be a valid point to post it here on the CFX forums.
Besides its proven reliability and compatibility to any framework, it is already part of several international RP Servers and enjoys players all around the globe. This makes it the oldest and longest supported available real multiplayer capable Blackjack script for RedM to my knowledge - Even though I post it here for the first time today.
Since creation in early 2022, the script got enhanced and expanded to match the original a e s t h e t i c s of RDR2 story mode Blackjack with a light pinch of self expression.
Visually it tries to match close to the original as well, but steps up with added GUI animation, contextual dealer voice lines and a wide feature set for admins to log and overview the game tables.
The script base itself builds up on a highly adaptable “minigame network logic”, which powers every other game/gambling script I made afterwards (Ludo, Liars Dice) and also from our script team (Texas Hold’Em, Roulette). This script is highly customizable to suit your every need.
Main Goal
Each player at the table is playing against the dealer. Aim is to come as close to number 21 with your cards as possible but not going over.
First, every player is setting a bet to start. If the player wins, the reward gets returned by either 100% (default) or 150% (winning instantly with a “Blackjack” (21)). If a player looses, you receive nothing, so losing your bet.
At the beginning of the game the dealer shuffles the deck and each player and dealer receives two cards. Each cards value gets summed up and then each player can take different actions to receive another card to raise their number (hit, double down), split, or stay at the current value (stand).
The dealer’s second card is hidden until the dealer takes his turn. That way the players can’t tell if they still need to hit/double down to get higher values than him.
If the dealers shown card is an 11 or 10, he checks if the other card matches up to 21 and will instantly win if this is the case. Otherwise the game can continue as normal.
