You have to chmod more than one folder to 777. Have you done all that are required?

upgrade to actual ibProArcade v2.6.6+ to solve this ...

That's what I did yesterday, and several problems magically disappeared, but this one didn't. I'm getting this error:

Warning: fread() [function.fread]: Length parameter must be greater than 0 in /arcade/functions/tar.php on line 795


Repeated a few times. When I go to check the game settings in game list, there is a yellow exclamation point there.

Now, I can't say this is actually causing a problem because most of the games work fine for me. Many of my users were having trouble saving high scores, but that was resolved with the upgrade.

I just wanted to see what I could find out.

Look in your gamedata folder and see if some of the ones that won't score have poofed. Sounds like a problem I encountered with v32 games. If they have poofed, extract them manually and add one at a time. Then make a backup gamedata folder. My best suggestion...drawing on my own experience.

Also...instead of 000000 as game background color, change to only 000. The yellow exclamation never goes away LOL. It should not hurt anything though...

the background-color bug is fixed in next release

Everytime I try and install a game I get the error "ZIP is not compatible. Install Failed"

I have this problem on ALL zips that I try to install from the AdminCP panel for arcade.

When I first installed the Arcade system it would let me install games. I also noticed some of the games show up twice in the arcade game menu???

Also, I downloaded games from the pnflashgames website and chose the PHPNuke format but still get the above error when I try to install them using the zip option in Arcade add game option.

about PNflashgmes: read enclosed instructions in the archive.

ZIP-Installer is for v3arcade-games ...
