Hello,

I recently sold a site that I owned for 3.5+ years. I spent a lot of time downloading games over the years and would like to know the steps required to copy the games (I still have full access to the original site) from the original forum to a new forum that I am starting. I understand that I will most likely (actually, it's preferred) to lose the high scores. If I must then resetting them to guest or unknown is OK. Is this possible? No, I did not think and never keep all the little .zip's I downloaded. I have the file structure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The only way I know would be to copy all the arcade folders..witch has all the games images and swf files...Then copy the arcade tables from your data base..

Upload all the arcade folders to the new site and insert the arcade data base tables..

the High Score of all time

Oops, when new members sign up from my old forum and play a game they are inheriting their previous value for this award on the main arcade page. Which mysql table can I clear out (delete from foo) to fix this problem and reset the scoring for that award (if possible)? Thanks!
