importing/adding games v3arcade style....

[GoTTi]

is there a way to import the games the same way v3arcade did?

in v3arcade i could just upload folders into the admincp dir, i would upload the game.php file, then the images, then the flash files into another dir, then it would mass install it all for me.

i see i can add the zip's but almost all of my games are unzipped, so what do i do?

[GoTTi]

ne1?

[MrZeropage]

unzipped games need to be installed manually one by one, sorry

[GoTTi]

awww zero....cmon...there is NO way to install the games in a mass command or something???there HAS to be....

what if i installed v3arcade first, then installed the games, then migrated to ibpro? its a long process prolly, but that will work right?

can you make a installer similar to the v3arcade one so we can do bulk installs of games? would make things alot easier.

[MrZeropage]

yes, the way over v3arcade would work.

ibProArcade only provides auto-installation if TAR or ZIP archives are provided.
Sure, it is possible to do such "search and install" function, but I am not sure if this is something more than just few users want to see next as a new feature in ibProArcade ;)

if its not hard to do, a little option like this shouldnt be a problem to implement.

you or whoever could use the v3arcade code as a reference to get this mass install of game files to work. it shouldnt be too hard.

[MrZeropage]

I won't use v3arcade's code, and by now I don't have such installer-extension on my roadmap for next release. But maybe I invest some time this evening for some first try on it, but no promise

[GoTTi]

were u able to make this sir?

[GoTTi]

any update on this?

[GoTTi]

ok i installed v3arcade and did the install of the games, i have the ibpro installed. what do i do now??

nevermind i found the converter script.

[MrZeropage]

nice workaround ;)

this feature won't make its way into v2.6.6+ maybe come up later, we'll see

It's best to use the TAR/ZIP archives :)
