v3 Arcade - Games Arcade System for 3.6.0

[evenmonkeys]

Well, they released a hack that allows you to enter in all of the information manually... but it's completely blank. At least ibPro filled in the common fields like size and image locations. Oh well.

[divided_by_fear]

hmm i havent seen that hack i know they had one like that for php but i havent seen it on vbulletin for 3.5.2

[Raydar]

When I try to mass import games, I get this...

There are no more games to import.

There are over 200 games in that folder. The following folders are CHMOD'd to 0777:
admincp
admincp/games
games
images/arcade

Why isn't it importing them? I'm not getting errors... it's just not doing it.

OMG, this is my problem. Thanks for posting.

So from reading the solution here, swf files won't work? Or do I need to install something else with the SWF files?

Thankyou

[Oblivion Knight]

You also need to upload the .game.php file and the 2 image files to admincp/games that accompany the .swf file that you are trying to import.. ;)


Well, they released a hack that allows you to enter in all of the information manually... but it's completely blank. At least ibPro filled in the common fields like size and image locations. Oh well.The size fields are set to default values anyway upon v3arcade installation, so you could leave the width and height fields blank and it would fill them in as 550 x 400 automatically.. I think.

I do take requests to extend on my addons, you know.. ;)

[tokosan]

cool i just installed it, thanks

[sbryan]

awesome, just installed this for the first time ever and it went smoothly.

where can i get some more games?

[Oblivion Knight]

Run a search using your favourite search engine, it should provide more than enough results.

Please note however that they're likely to be illegal and unsupported by John, Snowy or myself.

ok thanks :D

im trying to install a pacman game that appears to be from an older version?

when i try to run the pacman.game.php file after uploading everything, i just get a blank page with a title bar, no install prompts.

[Oblivion Knight]

Don't run the game.php file itself. That was for a previous version of v3arcade.

Upload all 4 files to admincp/games, and CHMOD the following directories to 777:
admincp/games
games
images/arcade

Go to:
Admin CP -> v3 Arcade -> Game Tools

Then click on "Start" where it says v3 Arcade - Mass Game Import.

[Raydar]

You also need to upload the .game.php file and the 2 image files to admincp/games that accompany the .swf file that you are trying to import.. ;)


Thanks for your help so far. When I first downloaded the swf games none had a .game.php file.

Where do I get these files from?

Thanks

[sbryan]

thanks Oblivion Knight, that did the trick.

now i have my Pacman, now to get Frogger :D

[Oblivion Knight]

Thanks for your help so far. When I first downloaded the swf games none had a .game.php file.

Where do I get these files from?

ThanksFrom the original game release zips..

If you can't find them, then I suggest you give my "Manually Add Games" addon a try.

[evenmonkeys]

What would be the easiest way to import 200+ games with only the swf file and images? ._.

[ThaBooth]

I'm having a problem with the games not showing up.

Anyone know what the deal is?

[ThaBooth]

i fixed it, but now i wanna know where i can get MORE GAMES!

[Oblivion Knight]

What would be the easiest way to import 200+ games with only the swf file and images? ._.Find another source for games? ;)

It's not like you need that many anyway. I cringe when people say they have so many installed, the bandwidth use must be astronomical on busy forums..

[plateau]

where to find more games and manually install them?

it's a big question, otherwise nothing makes sense.

and it seems there is no support on v3arcade as well. but it's ok. cause life goes on, lol.

[Oblivion Knight]

where to find more games and manually install them?

it's a big question, otherwise nothing makes sense.Search Google, seriously. It turns up so many results.. :p


and it seems there is no support on v3arcade as well. but it's ok. cause life goes on, lol.Somewhat harsh in my opinion, I think I've done pretty well at catching up with support issues that were built up over 2 weeks with no support present.

[ged]

I asked a question here and someone said only support will be given on v3arcade.com but I couldn't get any help there, I cannot install and I cannot uninstall the script, please someone help me.

[Deepdog009]

Install took abouts 15 min. But that doggone arcadetools and arcadeimport was pretty much useless 4 me. I already had 3.5.1 installed and took step by step instructions and was getting dataerror everytime I used arcadetools setup.

I just went with the other install (Fresh) and all went well except I coundn't import all old game scores. No prob.

Seems to be working ok. Thanks 4 everybodys hard work on this one. :classic:

[Spinball]

I installed but the newsbit date is white on a light background. Where do I change the news date font to black please?

[Spinball]

On further investigation, scanning through the product xml, you have
<style type="text/css">
.newsdate_alt1
{
background: $stylevar[tcat_bgcolor];
color: $stylevar[page_bgcolor];
font: bold 10px verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
text-align: right;
}
.newsdate_alt2
{
background: $stylevar[tcat_bgcolor];
color: $stylevar[page_bgcolor];
font: bold 10px verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
text-align: right;
}
And it looks like you assume that the page background color will be ok for a font. On our forums it is not.
Where does this style information get stored? I want to change the font color to black.
Thanks

[Oblivion Knight]

Change both instances of:
$stylevar[page_bgcolor]In that block of code you posted above, to a manual hex code that you wish to use..

[FiX]

I know everyone says there are tonnes of games, but I can't find anything useful - they all seem to be for the old version - if anyone has a link to a click-and-install game I would be very glad to receive it (if its a problem with copyright for the v3arcade people send it to me via pm)

thx

[Spinball]

Change both instances of:
$stylevar[page_bgcolor]In that block of code you posted above, to a manual hex code that you wish to use..
Thanks but the code I was referring to is in the product XML. And I guess I'd need to reinstall the plugin to make the changes happen.
What I want to know is where that CSS is stored in the system so I can edit it there. It's neater if I do it that way.

thxGames for the old version are fine.. ;)

Upload them to your admincp/games directory, and then CHMOD that and the following directories to 777; games and images/arcade.

Then go to Game Tools in your admincp, and run the v3arcade game importer. Oh, and v3arcade.com is the only place you'll find the click-and-install system.

[XtremeOffroad]

I got an error
line 94

error invalid property value
code 0

Any Ideas?
BTW Clicks Install

Edit: It only happens with the style i'm using and not the default so I may check that a bit more but any help would be appreciated.

Edit2: I have verified it is only with the SC Blue Template I am using and will check with the creator about this issue, Great addon and much appreciated the work you put into it to make this a product and so very easy to install, HI five.

[Prisoner]

Installed! All game information saved!

Thank you!

[plateau]

hi Oblivion Knight,

u mean the games for 3.0.7 can also be installed to the new arcade for 3.5?

if so, that sounds great! anyway, thanks for ur help.

i registered to v3arcade.com, but i even could not post a message, dont know why.

Yes, 3.0.x games will work perfectly with the new arcade. There are a lot of them out there. I don't think "native" 3.5 games exist because there's no need for it.

[Orcun]

Hi everybody,

I have a problem with v3Arcade. I cannot load games to it.

Here's what I did.

./forumroot/admincp/games CHMOD'd to 777
./forumroot/games CHMOD'd to 777
./forumroot/images/games CHMOD'd to 777

I did a correct Install and base system is working properly with 4 or 5 games coming in it. But when I try to add games I have an error.

I unzip a game. It consists of 4 files. 1 php 1 swf and 2 gif files. I upload them to ./forumroot/admincp/games and click v3Arcade Mass Game Import. I have this error.

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/forumtur/public_html/adminim/arcadeadmin.php on line 592

I delete all the files in ./forumroot/admincp/games and I still get the same error when I press the Import button. It should say "No Games To Import"

Is there anyone can help me with this ? I think there's a problem about v3Arcade.

Thanks.

P.S:Ask, If you need extra information.

[OAndrea]

I can't find where to find new games for upload... I am looking for a couple in particular.
Alchamy
lucky balls
Mahjong
add like mad
frogger and
q-bert

[Edrick]

I have Alchemy, q-bert, frogger, and Mahjong in my server (and computer) I'd gladly send you the games if you'd like.

Contact me through AIM The Edrick; MSN: fly_18@hotmail.com, or through -mail to roto.edrick AT gmail.com

[OAndrea]

thanks! emailing you now...

[OAndrea]

Also when installing pacman I got this error message

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/packofpo/public_html/forums/admincp/pacman.game.php on line 31 what did I do wrong?

[CtrlAltDel]

everything looks good on my install, only problem is that people are reporting that they are not getting PMs when their records are being beaten

any ideas?

[NxTek]

I've tried installing and reinstalling/re-editing the templates 3 times on a 3.5.2 board. The games themselves work fine but the postbit_legacy template doesn't show the trophy graphics and profile.php?do=editarcade shows a blank screen.

All the permissions are correct and Enable Arcade Awards is set to yes.

[Code Monkey]

I notice that this only puts the file name in the location column in the sessions table. It should put the whole query string like other vb products and vb itself. Makes it hard to code other features for it. Anyone familiar with the code know where it is working with this data and supplying the truncated info? I'm still finding my way around vb code.

[cdoyle]

I've tried installing this on my 3.5 test forum, and now running into all sorts of problems.

When I imported the plugin I got an error (sorry I didn't copy past it)

so I tried importing it again, and it said it was successful this time. So I thought great!

So when I go to change permissions, and hit save I get this error

[BrandiDup]

Several of my members keep timing out while playing games so their score ends up showing as unregistered or just not submitting at all. I was wondering how I should go about fixing this so they won't time out?

IS there a challenge or a tournament addon for the arcade? i see the challenge system being mentioned here, but I can not locate it anywhere in the settings or on the arcade.php page!? Am I missing something???

I want to setup a tournament for X users and lets them duke it out!

[YLP1]

I used the upgrade instructions because I had the arcade on my 3.07 version. I now have the 3.5.2 version.

I followed the upgrade instructions and doubled checked all template modifications and the v3 Arcade Settings.

My arcade page is not showing the forum's skin and all but the game mini icons are broken. Viewing one of the broken images, the path is http://www.lincolnparkforums.com// .

url to Arcade is http://www.lincolnparkforums.com/arcade.php

The Arcade Games directory is set at games
The Arcade Images directory is set at images/arcade
My bburl does NOT have the end slash.

Edited to Add: When clicking on a game to play, the game dosesn't show.

I am fairly new at this php/vb so any help on how to fix this is greatly appreciated.

I wonder why no one else had this problem but me. Any way it has to do with the .game.php files, they are not in the zip file of this hack.

So where do I get the full version or rest of the zip? Thanks

[YLP1]

i had the same problem buddy, you have to un-install your previous arcade then install this one.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the arcade system but I still have broken images.

It's looking for this path: http://www.lincolnparkforums.com//1st.gif notice the two // . The path to images in the Arcade ACP is correct as images/arcade

How do I correct the path?

Any help is greatly appreicated.

[theorigin]

I followed the instructions correctly (I believe), but for some reason, the arcade awards are showing under my posts, rather than in the dropdown menu. Does anyone know why this is?

[YOimYO]

Look. I had installed this b4. And I found the fix to this problem b4. But now that i have reinstalled. I cannot find the fix anymore .... :p

If you look under my avitar. and also where the name is supposed to be in the award section There is no names there.

I know that there is a fix for this. but i cant seem to find it after 3 days of searhcing. so i ask here.


I have attached a pic below ...


thx :)

[ionut]

Why not make a torrent with the 600-900 games and post the url to the torrent file here so that everyone uploads/downloads without the need for a hosting server.

[duplu]

Then just post up the direct link for those games! :DI thought I wasn't permitted to post a direct link :surprised:

Remove it if you want:

I am by no means an expert but it looks like the arcadeoptions field was already deleted.

I did a search for your error and on mySQL the error I read said that it was deleted.

mySQL site is my error bible LOL.

[YLP1]

I am posting this here because there are links from the main post to other arcade mods. I have tried to find it by searching but had no luck.

On the old 3.0 v3Arcade there was a modification that allowed one to change the resolution size of the game.

Is there something like this for this revised v3Arcade?

I have one other question....I never installd the IParcade but if I have this v3arcade for 3.5 installed, does this mean I can import IParcade games that I have and they will work with v3Arcade without me installing the iParcade?

Thanks in advance.

[subnet_rx]

Where would the php files and gamedata folders go for newly installed games?

[plateau]

Yes, 3.0.x games will work perfectly with the new arcade. There are a lot of them out there. I don't think "native" 3.5 games exist because there's no need for it.
thanks mate!

I still don't know how to get this working, and still can't uninstall it.

anyone?

[NexDog]

get the manually add a game from the admincp addon
Where is this option. The arcadetools.php and arcadeadmin.php files don't work and I don't see any other option in admincp except Arcade General Settings.....

[cdoyle]

Is this hack no longer supported by the OP?

He hasn't posted here in quite awhile, and many are having problems with this hack.

If it's no longer supported, is there anyway to get that checkmark removed?

[Eagle Creek]

Looks great!

But are there also RPG's available?

[Mastar]

Will this arcade system work on VB3.53?

[Breeze]

Will this arcade system work on VB3.53?

I am using it on 3.5.3 and only had one problem getting it to work.

[Bounce]

sorry if this has been posted before :(

the time the score was made text and at the select games is matching my background, i'm guessing its a setting in the css but which one lol

screenshot attached

[cdoyle]

OK, so I try to post on the 'official' site, to see if I can get any help there.

So after trying to get my 'license' verified. It says 'can not verify license, make sure you arcade can be viewed by guests'. But I can't change permissions with this thing, any time I try I get the database error.

So I can't get support on their forum because I can't post until I verify my license. But I cant' verify my license because my arcade can't be viewed by guests. But I can't change permissions for the arcade because arcade isn't working. I also can't un-install it because the plugin won't uninstall, just gives a db error.

I guess I'll have to just restore my test forum using my backup, but good grief. I shouldn't have to do all that.
I was really looking forward to having something like this, but this was a total waste of time.

Also I noticed many on their forum having similar problems as me, and no answers to those either.

I am using it on 3.5.3 and only had one problem getting it to work.

What problem was that?

[plateau]

can anyone details the STEPS to manually install the Arcade Games?

I looked around but I could not find any complete guides. can u pls detail like:

1. upload...to...

2. chmod...to...

3. and then...

thanks!

I tried many times but got the error:

[erroneus]

for those of us that have multiple styles.....is there anyway to apply all those template changes to all of our styles? Or is the only way doing all those steps on each template manually?

[mkdevo]

[boozehound]

Any idea how I could host the SWF files on a separate server? My first thoughts are since the games always want to talk to the relative location './arcade.php', then there will need to be an arcade.php on the separate server which forwards requests/posts to the arcade.php on the main server; and the name of the SWF in the games table will need to be prefixed with the actual URL of the files. Do-able?

[Breeze]

What problem was that?

Well it wasn't related to my version of VB, I don't think. The zip file didn't have any *.game.php files which are needed ( I think) to get the games installed and then they are deleted from your admin/games folder. After installing just one game that had the *.game.php file it started installing games just fine with out php error.

[LBSources]

where is the best place to check if notifications ARENT being sent when a high score is beat? example, i have mine set to inform me when someone beats my highscore; but i dont receive and email nor do any other members ..

thanks in advance..

If the game comes with a gamedata folder where do you upload it too..I cant get these games to work

[duplu]

If the game comes with a gamedata folder where do you upload it too..I cant get these games to work

You can try /forums/arcade or I find the best way is not to upload them at all then try and play the game. When the game doesn't work just check your http error log which will tell you where your web server was trying to find the gamedata folder.

[jarcher]

how do I make the header the same size as the arcade?
its lik this:
1 is header
2 is forum
same size
3 is the arcade
under a smaller header
[1]
[2]

[1]
[ 3 ]

I guess that would be the arcade Table Width is larger than the main.
how do I change it?

I have no idea how to even begin troubleshooting that error otherwise I'd help you out. Be very careful who you give your info too though, make sure they have a decent postcount and a good reputation on here.

Good luck.

Edit: Take a look at this thread: http://www.v3arcade.com/forums/showthread.php?t=755

Is class_database_analyze.php in your /forum/includes folder? Recheck and make sure it's there, if not, upload it and see if that fixes it. It looks to my novice eye like it's just not finding that file.

[QueenBee]

club3g: no i didnt have that file uploaded, and it went through, but still did nothing:(

No idea. Is arcade.php in your /forums/ folder?

I'd go through and doublecheck all of the files in the zip to make sure they're there. If Includes didn't get uploaded, chances are /includes/xml didn't either, as well as the rest of it.

yeah thats there:) ugh!

Maybe I've missed something, but I can't seem to be able to get challenges working. I've edited the templates, and the code exists where it should be, but the "challenge" link doesn't appear in the user dropdown as expected.

Games work fine, scores recorded, etc.
Very nice work John, Thanks for providing this!

Does the user have to allow challenges before it appears?
Have I instead missed a setting?
Is it possible to allow challenges per usergroup or by changing prefs through ACP?

[Raydar]

Hi Wbear,

I'm sorry I can't help you with your problem. But maybe you can help me with mine. I can only find the find the challenge system for Vb 3.0.

Is there one available for Vb 3.5.2? And if so where can I find it?

Ok. Completely new database, latest version of VBulletin, latest version of V3Arcade. No hacks etc added so its a completely fresh database. Trying to run this installation and it doesn noit install. Well the progress bar just keeps scrolling across in import plugins.

(this is my second attempt. The latest database was modded and i thought that might be the problem. So i tried on a fresh new database with the same result)

Please, is anyone aware of this?

Thanks

PS I left this exact message on the V3 arcade forums too.

I've tried to uninstall this hack, and it gave me an error. I tried just restoring my db from a backup, but that didn't help either.

Where do I go to remove these empty option from my usergroup permissions screen? How do I get rid of the arcade totally?

Please someone help, I've posted on here at least 6 times and the only response I have gotten was to post for help on the offical forum. But I can't post there. To post there you need to verify your arcade license, to do this you need to open your arcade up to guests. That is the problem, I can't change usergroup permissions!! So this is my only forum to ask for help on this.

Did you upload the xml product file? That adds all the MySQL, templates, phrases, etc. It seems that you didn't... the name of the file is product-v3arcade.xml and you can import it via Product Manager.

[shiva]

Actually, the xml file isn't loading in the tables for some of us. It didn't with me, and I have been trying to add the tables manually to try and fix it.
Support isn't that great really, and if you try and uninstall it, you could bugger up the site. A proper un-installer would be nice, so if there was a bad upload, we could remove it completely and try again.

Who do we contact on vb.org about having them remove the 'supported' checkmark on this hack? If the hacks creator isn't going to support the hack, then that needs to be removed.

Hello,

I have edit both 'postbit' and 'postbit_legacy' templates and for some reason I cannot challenge somebody else. I have checked the checkbox to receive challenges, but for some reason I "do not have permission" to change other people.

How can I enable the challenge system?

- Tipem

[Snake]

Each and every use must enable the challenge system by updating their arcade options in the usercp. There is no other way to enable it.

[cdoyle]

For the ones that this doesn't work, what are our options?
It seems deleting the entire forum, and database and starting over is the only option?

so glad I did this on the test forum, but it's still bugs me I have to redo the whole test forum it seems.

[fonzie11]

fonzie, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

thats wat it says when i try 2 acces the arcade?

Hey, I have just installed it, and there is a message saying

Welcome to the Arcade - this text can be changed by editing the "welcome_message" phrase, or by editing the "arcade_welcome_area" template.

But I am not sure how to edit it, cos there isnt such thing as "arcade_welcome_area", there is "arcade_welcomearea" but it makes no sense.

[Tri@de]

You have to go in admincp choose "language and phrases" and search in arcade the arcade_welcome_area phrase

thanks :D

I just want to ask, how to just send the challenge to the pager instead of the PM. Here is the link for the vbpager. (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=104609)

[cdoyle]

Well I'm going to reinstall my test forum, and just start over I guess. Unless someone can tell me some other way to get the usergroups to work again? Is it a template that needs to be reverted?

[Snake]

What's your problem buddy? I might be able to help ya...

[cdoyle]

Well a few of us had problems trying to install it (it seems to only partially install), and now we cant' get it to uninstall.

I've been posting on here for the past couple weeks, and haven't been able to get any help.

What I finally ended up doing is, restoring my database from a older version before I had tried to install it. But now, when I go into the user permission settings, there is a section of blank options, and if I try and change any permissions for any group I get this.

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0:

As you can see in the 'acradepermissions' is still showing up here. I'm just not sure how to finally get rid of this.

If you go back a couple pages, you can see my previous posts too. Not sure if that will help any?

[Eagle Creek]

I see so many problems.. Should I install it anyway? It doesn't seem be very supported..

[cdoyle]

I wouldn't, at least use a test forum if you do first

[username12]

I was excited to see this and wanted to pay for the branding free option, but based on the creator's lack of activity here and at his own forums (and the indication this is to be expected), I'm hesitant to touch it at all. I'm going to check out ibProArcade and see if it's any good.

Most v3arcaders are waiting and hoping on the part of John that he'll actually decide to partake in his own hack at some stage and actually get it back on track. Unfortunately, for the most part, a lot of us have been here before and seen this exact same thing happen with the version 3.0.x arcade.

I've been very loyal to v3arcade for as long as it's been around, but even i'm considering swapping over to ibProArcade at the moment, simply because I am desperate to have the tournament part of the arcade for my site and after so long, I'm on the verge of giving up waiting. If I could code it into v3arcade myself I would, but i'm not quite advanced enough for that yet.

[kr580]

I had v3 Arcade installed on my forum before and it all worked fine. A while ago I uninstalled it, everything appeared to go fine. Now I installed it again and this time there's no section for the arcade in my AdminCP. Before there was a bar just for the arcade in the list on the side where I could add/remove games, change settings, order, etc. Does anyone know how to get it there? There is a Arcade option under vB Options but that just does the general settings.

I've installed and uninstalled at least 5 times today hoping a I made a mistake each previous time but no luck. So... Does anyone know how to get it to appear?

Thanks - Kevin

[shiva]

Who knows, mine didn't even add the tables into the database, and no one is answering a question I put in about the proper code to add a query into mySQL to fix the errors.

To be honest, maybe if you can, write the step by step to uninstalling, so I can get rid of the damn thing. :(

[cdoyle]

I got rid of it, but you're most likely not going to want to do what I just did.

I just scrapped the test forum and started over. I just couldn't wait any longer.
I don't get why this hacked is still marked as supported? I even emailed. VB.org about it, and asked them to remove it. Just so others finding this hack know there is no support and to know ahead of time before installing.

At least there are a number of posts here now, that describe the problems so hopefully newbies who find this, read all the way through before attempting to install.

[bloodwrath]

sorry 80 pages is a LOT to look at
if u look at this page
http://help.supportcave.com/showthread.php?p=6#post6
any post my make add the Arcade Awards to the post
how do i remove that?
thanks

well i found the option
If enabled, users will have Arcade awards displayed in their postbits and profiles.
but i like all the other features any way just to disable postbits

[VodkaFish]

I attempted to find this answer in this thread, but could not (tried searching, sorry if I missed it): is there a place where I can set the default arcade settings (accept challenges, etc) for new members of the site?

[rzpvile]

I appologise for not reading the whole thread but is there any way to set a post limit to play the games. Like to play you must have X amount of posts.

[VodkaFish]

Yes, you can control which usergroups have access to the arcade. You can create a secondary "Arcade Available" usergroup and setup how users get automatically added to that group. Then you allow access from that group, but not the normal registered users usergroup.

[MorrisMcD]

Is there a way to import the high scores from a 3.0.7 board that I am currently running to a 3.5 that I am migrating everything to?

[alraqee]

For some reason when I try to view the arcade it says I do not have permission to view it. I am the admin and I have the arcade set to active I dont get whats wrong!

Have you set the permissions up in your usergroup settings?

[ddrultramix]

Some one had a "token" system where their arcade was modded to where the more you post, the more tokens you can get, same with threads, and same with high scores. Can you do that with v3arcade? (They also had a download section that costs tokens). Also, is this arcade competeting with ibproarcade? Will the next version have a lot of the things ibproarcade has?

[ammarcom004]

nice hack

thanx alot

[WrestleMania36]

i've a problem, when I import an ibpro folder (.tar) games i've this message :

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /admincp/arcadeadmin.php on line 734

it doesn't import the games, but delete the folder in admincp/games

i've that on line t34 of arcadeadmin.php:

foreach ($gametar->files as $key => $val)

do you find the problem ?

I've a 2nd problem, when I add manually a game with the addon, there isn't a line to enter the directory of a data folder for a game. so the game doesn't function.

can you say me how to add a game with a data folder please ? manually, because i hven't game.php...

[ged]

Sinan database de table prefix kullanıyorsan table prefix'i drop kodunda table name'in onune ekle ve o şekilde drop etmeyi dene. Eğer yine aynı hatayı alırsan phpmyadmin'den usergroup table'ı altında arcadepermissions'ı manuel olarak dropla. O şekilde sorunu ??zebilirsin.Thanks for your help Lizard but the problem is the absence of this table. Maybe if this table would exist, all my problems would be solved. :)

And where are you John?

[ged]

And after solving this problem with manually creating this field, I've got two more problems. Following error message is my first problem, isreverse ile ilgili:

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'isreverse' in 'field list'

How can I manually create this table?

And the second is, when I go to Arcade page, I'm getting a white page instead of Flash game, is there anyone who has got any idea?

[ged]

I solved first problem with running a query like this:

ALTER TABLE `arcade_games` ADD `isreverse` INT( 10 ) DEFAULT '0'

But my second problem remains intact, every item of page is loading but when I try to play a game, Flash section of page is only white.

[MSC]

I'm getting the following mysql error when I run arcadeimport.php:

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.3:

Anyone know what's wrong and how I cure it?

I have an optimisation question.

When I check the amount of queries, I see this.

Page generated in 0,74908 seconds with 19 queries (1 queries for uncached templates) [Server Loads: 8.68 4.09 : 2.73]
Uncached templates: arcade_award_bit (35)
How can I prevent that ?

I believe there's a small bug here, the "news&events" timing is getting its info from the server time, not accounting for DST corrections inside vB...
DST is in effect where I live and my boards show the correct time, but the news&events time is one hour behind...

where do i find USERCP_SHELL or POSTBIT... Help

Go in admincp
select styles and templates
click on "search on templates"
in the box write usercp_shell and click on find button

do the same thing for postbit

[Zidane007nl]

Great hack, I installed it succesfully and converted the games and scores from ibProArcade (that I used on my vB 3.0.x forum).

[WoodiE]

I've posted this on the v3 Arcade forum's and didn't get a reply so I'm hoping I'll have a better chance here.

I'm trying to add more games to the arcade and no matter what I do I keep getting this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/rcnitro/public_html/forum/rootcp/arcadeadmin.php on line 592

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Was hoping someone can help me here, i have this mod installed and works great, but in my forums i have just started getting underlined text in some posts, when i hover over them i get this "www.myforums.etc.arcade.php?do=newchallenge&userID=159" the user 159 is the culprit i am sure of this, but how do i check to see what the problem is.
It is not user 159 posts that i hover over as there is no underlined text within his/her post it is other members posts that show this problem??
Please can someone help.

don't count on it. I uninstalled this to go to IBPro arcade and had so many database problems that I had to uninstall THAT one. Going to give this another try, since John's post says that the ibpro arcade games are compatible with this arcade

Question...

Any performance concerns running this? It looks incredible. I just converted from phpbb because the forum (after applying some mods) was real slow. We are on a dedicated Free BSD box and it is real fast now.

Just want to make sure it stays that way, although I would like to install this! Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I have 800 games with thousands of scores and it doesn't slow anything down. I wouldn't be concerned about performace just take account of the bandwidth involved serving the flash files.

[Froggy32701]

Quick ?

I would like to change this up a little. I am not crazy about how it shows the game champions in the postbit (I dont like the look of it)
So I have removed that.

But what I would like to do is, up by the users name where the trophy is, I would like to change this a little.

I would like it to look like this "Username is an arcade champion then tropghy.gif"

So I guess what I am saying is (sorry just woke up) I would like to add the phrase "is an arcade champion" between the users name and the trophy.

<a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[musername]</a><!-- v3 Arcade --> <if condition="$post['arcadeawards']"><a class="bigusername" href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$vboptions[arcadeimages]/trophy.gif" align="absmiddle" alt="$vbphrase[arcade_champion]" border="0" /></a></if>

I know it has to be added in there, I just cant find the right spot.

There is a problem I'm having with users playing games for so long that they get logged out by the system for being "idle"....and then their high scores don't get posted because they weren't logged in. The problem is that the idle time is set to 15 minutes before booting them, because if I crank it up to high to say 2 hours....even if they leave the website their username stays in the "who's online" box. Is there a way to fix this problem? Otherwise if they play a game for more then 15 minutes they're screwed. Anyone else encounter this?

[John]

Just to let everyone know, a new support system is up and running at http://www.v3arcade.com/support. It's staffed by two people (myself and another), and makes managing support a lot easier for me - I've been pretty lax when it comes to checking threads for support requests, this system organizes everything nicely.

You can also reply to support tickets via email, and even create new ones. There are two addresses for support:

help@v3arcade.com - General Enquiries
support@v3arcade.com - Technical Support

Bear in mind that if your email address isn't registered with v3Arcade.com your support tickets might take longer to be replied to, as it gets subjected to spam filtering and so on. Branding-free license holders get priority, but everyone should be answered within 48 hours. :)
