seems to be working now?
Since 0.98 everything seem to work properly.
The only thing it's when you made a new game, it's take few minutes to become available on member games list.

I just installed and am looking for some kind of interface within the Admin Panel but find nothing. I did read that the settings.php file is the way to modify this mod. I would like to add sound, and add usertypes than can play the games. Am I supposed to adjust by editing the settings.php file and then save? Is sound also located within the settings.php file?

The readme.txt is a little out of date, the settings can be done in the admin tab within the flash plugin itself. Although you do still need to make yourself a admin first (through the settings) or you won't see it.
Sound is controlled by the .swf file itself, basically just some beeps and buzzers during the multiplayer games to alert you of your turn.

Andrew,in settings.php I included group 1 like this:
$this->allowedUserTypes = array(1, 2, 5, 6, 7);
Unregistered still cannot play.
In blackjack I'm betting one dollar and already have won $35.
In roulette I'm a constant winner as well...
Is it normal?
I can use IE to access Gameroom but with FF cannot play it without installing Adobe addon product.
Thanks.

I'm about at the end of my rope with this one. It's a great mod, but I still cannot get images to load in FireFox. They work fine in IE though. Permissions have nothing to do with it, because the images load in IE and sometimes they will load in FireFox. Plugins and browser version have nothing to do with it because everything I'm using is 100% up to date. It's not just me that experiences this on my site, but most all of my FireFox using members and judging by some of the posts here I see others experiencing the same problem. I really want to use this mod and purchase the paid version, but I can't justify it without having it working in FireFox. I don't know if it's something with my settings, server or what. I can view the images and play just fine in FireFox on vBGaming.
Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated.....Andrew, you can use that ID and pw I PM'd you to look at things again if you like. I even added some credits to that account.

Unregistered users will never be able to play, as a userid is required internally for things to function, they don't have one.
As for your winning streak, not normal, but everyone gets their lucky streaks ;)
Adobe - it is a flash based plugin, any browser needs a flash plugin to run it.

I'm quite sure it is permissions, I'm not sure how it is sometimes avoided, but if I go here:
http://www.thetradersarena.com/gameroom/images/roulette.png
I get a "Forbidden" error, meaning I don't have permission to load that image. It could be that some of them are readable, and others not, not sure as I can't check that.
Where as if I do the same on my site:
http://vbgaming.org/forum/gameroom/images/roulette.png
I get a image.
Your not the first person I've had ask me about this, correcting the permissions should get it going for you.

I understand what you're saying there and i get the same forbidden message in FF as you do when i look through my site url. FF shows the image on your site url for me as well, however, when i look in IE through my site url it shows the image. I set the permissions on my server the same as the permissions for the casino images (which I also have installed and works fine) but still no luck. I tried allowing all of the permissions, still no luck. Are there any other permission settings that you might be referring to? I do have vbulletin integrated with vbadvanced on my site.....could that have something to do with it possibly? I'm almost certain it's not your mod causing this problem but I'd sure like to get it figured out.

Do you happen to have anything set up to prevent hot linking images or anything like that?
A 403 error is a server issue, either the files are set to the wrong permissions (should be readable across all 3) or something else is telling the server not to send the image, possibly a .htaccess file misfiring?
btw - IE does the same thing if you try to link to the image directly, before having opened it through the flash, which is why I'm suggesting a hotlinking image prevention trick.

Andrew Green
08-02-2009, 11:31 PM
Settings are all in the plugin, there is a admin tab. If you don't see it you need to add your userid to the list of admins in the settings.php file. After that you can add others or make any other changes through that tab. With the next update I am going to set it up that whoever imports the product file is set up as a admin right off the start.
edytwinky
08-02-2009, 11:51 PM
Thanks figured it out.
Now that I have it installed and before the purchase, I have some other questions that possibly have been answered.
1.) Are there stats on chess like wins and losses? How do you set ranked and unranked games? I do not see the option
2.) What happens if a player leaves the game while its going on?

1.) Are there stats on chess like wins and losses? How do you set ranked and unranked games? I do not see the option
You select it on the game set up screen, but that option is not available in the basic version. Ranked games use ELO ranking system and track wins / loses / draws.
2.) What happens if a player leaves the game while its going on?
They have 1 minute to return, after being done 15 seconds the other person is given a screen telling them the other person is missing. They can leave as well and it is a draw, or wait until the timer runs down and the other person forfeits.

Where did you test this?
Process should be
- click a chip.
- click on cards you want to discard
- Push discard
- receive payout (if any)

I don't think you have the latest .swf file up, or if you do your browser cached it on you, clear cache and reload.

Andrew,
is there any plan to implement an option to change the blinds midway through a game?
That'd be perfect so we could set up a Sit N Go Tournament with increasing blinds.

Installed Possible Bugs?
Problem 1:
The Chess and Reversal board color options will not change. When I change a color they just jump back to their defaults. Is this a bug?
Problem 2:
I edited my navbar and added the banner code however the html banner doesn't show and I did add a default message. How can this be fixed please? The flash banner seems to show.
MAJOR PROBLEM 3:
I created a Reversal Game. BUT when another member click on board games my game doesn't list so there is no way for any members to join the game. That break this whole mod system so this mod doesn't work!
I NEED HELP PLEASE AND FIXES!
Well now I changed just the theme color to black and I lost all text. Tried changing the color back and it doesn't want to save. I'll change it and it won't save after I refresh. You should add a save/update settings button. If it's supposed to update on the fly, doesn't seem to save all the time.
This is very buggy, it looks as though it cleared my entire settings. I can't change anything anymore. Nothing saves.

The colour selectors can be weird... I'm having a hard time duplicating this, but I'll work on getting it "stickier"
Do you know which version of flash you are using?

Same as above.
It saves on the fly, but updates when you leave the admin tab. Might make sense to make the theme colour update on the fly too, to avoid going in and out to see what it looks like.

Its a small problem dont you think when no other members can see the created games so no one can join and no games can start!
Ugggg
Any help please!
I tested this in FF and IE 7 and 8! Not much works except the damn chatroom! LOL Even the sounds dont work right!

It will be awesome when it does work but the flash integration here is whacked at best.
all works ok here on 3.7.x
real nice update to the old casino Andrew:up: and will upgrade to the paid version as soon as members kick the funds my way:)
no bugs to report here.... If you need a tester for no limit options I would gladly do that for you:D

This MOD does not work! NO WAY! The flash is way broken in VB3.7x!
It does work just fine on 3.7x:D perhapses you have a conflict issues with something else on your server?
didn't see you ask for any help before you started your troll like slaming of a beta mod:down:
this mod has been about for a long time and has had issues in it's build stage but Andrew always state's it's in beta!!!!(which means he needs help to find error's)
this is sure to be second to the arcade mod soon if not top it.
there will be bugs and issues and As a coder you should know this and only test on a test site:rolleyes:

Well, the thing about modding software is I can't forsee every possible other modification you have installed, sometimes you get conflicts, or your server is set up in a funny way, or all sorts of little funny things that can turn up. Chances are I could help figure out why it isn;t workig on your site, and it is working on many others.
As for your database errors... No kidding, if you leave things active that are trying to access database tables that no longer exist you are going to get errors...

Not database, internal to the flex app, it thought you had left the game when you hadn't, so it broke communication with the backend, which in turn dropped the game.
The database things you had come up where the result of uninstalling it while it was still "in use". The banner was still on someones page, and it sent a update request back after the product had been removed

- Update cash in solo games and betting on enter & transfer
- Change event listener on colour selectors in settings, makes it stick properly.
- Theme colour updates on the fly when changed, so you can see what things will look like as you adjust it.
- Fixed a glitch in the board games that would bring text into the game chatroom from the Lobby chat room.
- Fixed a bug relating to the board games when other sections had been turned off
- Added payout chart to game screen for Slots, Video Poker & Let it ride
- Border changes with theme color
All the bugs I know of are gone, if you are still having any issues let me know :)

In your zip file you have a mis-labeled file: class_main.php~
Do we need to remove the ~ from the end of the filename before we upload?
You also have a duplicate txt file labeled the same weird way. What are these files for?
SUGGESTIONS:
The background color although it does change needs its own setting because most of the color schemes the backgroud doesn't come close to matching. ;) So that background color needs its own selection box please.
We need to have wins / lost games and cash amount in a block on the members profile page please.
When you place a game of say Chess and you win the score is not recorded anywhere? Is that right?
The HTML banner doesn't show even when you add a default saying to the banner default saying?

Your flash file downloads about 3kb shy of what it should be, maybe try a different ftp program? Send it via ssh? Something is definitely getting lost going in or coming out of your server.

I think the border is the only thing you don't have with what I sent you. to make your links open in new windows: html banner you can edit the template, flash one isn't as easy
WOL is in the plugin "Gameroom: WOL Display"
yotsume
08-04-2009, 04:55 AM
I uploaded this new package you attached here to get the border. It still needs its own setting because like I stated most of the colors you pick for the theme the border doesn't match at all.
I will edit the links to make the target="blank" I am using the html banner. The flash one just doesn't match my site at all.

Not gonna, lie, right now that language is hard coded.
Although if you are editing language you should probably do it through the "Edit Language" piece, which will save it and not cause you problems when the language file changes (as it will to bring the language in the settings tab into it)

Did you get this working? If not PM me a link and I might be able to pick out what setting is causing the problems.
Yes, I believe the field you need is listed in the readme
If I edit it under "Edit Language" will it change the text/phrase?
What, about a branding free version?

Basically what happens is the language.php file is the defaults.
The "Edit Language" tab allows you to overwrite those defaults with whatever you like.
That way if I add to the language.php and you upload it file the defaults will be in place, and any that you have overwritten will still be overwritten.

Any sports event. Let's say I'm positive A particular sports team is going to beat another. I want to be able to enter and/or select an amount of vbcredits I am willing to bet. Then I want to be able to place a limit on the amount of people who accept the bet. That would allow me to choose if I want to do a one on one bet. Selecting more than one for this option would either split the amount amongst my opponents if they win, or they are each given the amount I bet. Of course I would have to be able to select that as an option.
Would be nice to also be able to invite/challenge someone to a bet. A thread could be posted in a forum of my choice with the title "x has challenged y".
Any thought on this? This got kinda lost with all the replies these past couple of days.

Lets see I have vbexperience, that popular resizer mod for attached photos, a video system, and a bunch of other mods. The main problem I can see with this is the flash. I have the latest version install of 10x.
Perhaps with all the ::cough:: crap ::cough:: you have installed, there is a conflict between mods? Blaming this mod is disingenious at best when plenty of others are successfully utilizing the mod?

Here is my first thought, How would such a feature be moderated? If I where to implement it that would probably be the first thing everyone would ask, is how do they control it and keep people from abusing it?
Involving moderators I think would be a mistake, so it would have to be purely honor system. But if there is a interface to do it, disputes are going to end up going to the moderators / admins.
To be honest I'm not sure I see how this would be a benefit, more then a potential headache, over me saying "I'll bet you 100 that ____ happens." and settling through the transfer cash feature.
But if you can sell me on it I'll put some though into it :)

If you have been editing your settings through the admin tab overwriting the settings file will not overwrite your settings. Nothing was changed in that file from the last update, I believe the last thing to go into it was the Reversi board colours so if they are in there its up to date.

The error is because the column soundfx already exist, i just delete the column and the update recreate the column.

for most of my skins i have the following listed in my navbar:

as you see i have removed calendar from navbar on all our in use skins.
for the one skin i am using to test this (Clean Blue) i restored navbar to original so i could be sure to follow the instructions exactly. my navbar now looks like this for that one skin:

problem is when i click Gameroom i get the following:

Thing is it shouldn't try that again. each change comes with a version number, that way it only runs once, if you update it knows not to run that again. That field went in on 0.9.9, so it shouldn't try to add it again when going from 0.9.9 to 1.0.0
There where no database changes for 1.0.0 from 0.9.9, so the only thing that doesn't happen is the version number getting changed, everything should work properly. But it's been fixed now, so no one else should hit that.

great great great mod, members really love it!
I have seen a couple of poker games end with confusing results.
one game i was in, player2 had 2 pair (queens and 3's) and player4 had 2 pair (jacks and 4's). the queen high should have won the hand but the game called it a tie and split the pot. is this correct?
and another game the person "with the most money" was able to bankrupt every other player by just raising every turn. isn't there supposed to be some method to allow a player to call and end the hand so that the person with the most money does not have the ability to automatically win regardless of what he has in his hand?

Looks like your name is too long for the space, which forces a horizontal, that takes up vertical space and forces that one...
I'm making it a little wider and disabling the scroll bars on that box, which should solve that. Really long names might get cut off, but it won't screw up the display like this :)

When the cards are dealt, it doesn't show the flop, river nor the turn but it says "Dealer: The flop" etc. I disabled it for now.

If you did a upgrade reupload and make sure everything overwrites. If the backend and the frontend are mixed versions you will get this.
If that is not the problem PM me a link and a test account and I will have a look for you.

great great great mod, members really love it!
I have seen a couple of poker games end with confusing results.
one game i was in, player2 had 2 pair (queens and 3's) and player4 had 2 pair (jacks and 4's). the queen high should have won the hand but the game called it a tie and split the pot. is this correct?
and another game the person "with the most money" was able to bankrupt every other player by just raising every turn. isn't there supposed to be some method to allow a player to call and end the hand so that the person with the most money does not have the ability to automatically win regardless of what he has in his hand?
same issue, here is screenshot:

it seems that i was incorrect in reporting the issue in my previous post
in the event of a full house or 2 pair, the game is only looking at the highest suit.

Since installing (upgrading to the latest version, 1.0.1), one of our members thinks that the Results and Payouts box in Video Poker has resulted in the cards being made smaller. Is it possible to turn the Results and Payouts box (displayed on the right-hand side of the screen) off?

I think you should change the word "Usertype" in Admin > Settings. Cause I thought it was Usergroup. Wouldn't UserID be more suitable?
And Usertype for "Allowed Usertypes" = usergroups. Correct me if I'm wrong =p
Annd as for the problem of hands not showing that I mentionned previously, if I overwrite the upload, it should fix it? Cause I know I've re-uploaded it before but wasn't sure if I checked overwrite or not.

yes, some internals have changed, if files don't get overwritten its not sure which game it is supposed to be drawing, so you don't see the common cards.

great great great mod, members really love it!
and another game the person "with the most money" was able to bankrupt every other player by just raising every turn. isn't there supposed to be some method to allow a player to call and end the hand so that the person with the most money does not have the ability to automatically win regardless of what he has in his hand?
[12:35] YFwhatah: is it possible for a player with more money to always bankrupt the entire table and force all other players to fold?
[12:36] xtreemtwilight: yea
[12:36] YFwhatah: the other players cannot call and end the hand?
[12:36] xtreemtwilight: if u have a superior hand in the end but there is no option to go "all in"
[12:36] xtreemtwilight: there is no side pot that would split off
[12:36] YFwhatah: it lets you go all in?
[12:36] xtreemtwilight: no...
[12:36] xtreemtwilight: like if u bet all ur money on a hand
[12:37] xtreemtwilight: it automaticly takes you out
[12:37] YFwhatah: right, so even if you have the superior hand ther eis no way for you to win if they opponent has more money and takes advantage of that "bug" right?
[12:37] xtreemtwilight: yea
problem:
The player with the most money can 100% always win a hand because there is no option to go "all in"
The person with the most money keeps raising, when other players run out of cash they are automatically removed from the game. the person with the most money can always win.
We have set up house rules to prevent this but it can still happen at any time. IMO the poker game cannot really be considered compeitive until this is addresses
I don't watch enough poker to actually know how this is supposed to work, but i thought that a player who came to the table with less money should have the option to go "all in" in response to an opponent who is making a bet to high to be covered.
(this can be prevented by the poop player getting a cash transfer midgame from another player or by them opening the browser in another tab and spamming posts to get more cash between turns. but this is not optimal if the difference in starting cash is considerable.)

I'm about at the end of my rope with this one. It's a great mod, but I still cannot get images to load in FireFox. They work fine in IE though. Permissions have nothing to do with it, because the images load in IE and sometimes they will load in FireFox. Plugins and browser version have nothing to do with it because everything I'm using is 100% up to date. It's not just me that experiences this on my site, but most all of my FireFox using members and judging by some of the posts here I see others experiencing the same problem. I really want to use this mod and purchase the paid version, but I can't justify it without having it working in FireFox. I don't know if it's something with my settings, server or what. I can view the images and play just fine in FireFox on vBGaming.
Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated.....Andrew, you can use that ID and pw I PM'd you to look at things again if you like. I even added some credits to that account.
I Confirm this Bug with FireFox, I'm using the Latest Version 3.5.2). :confused:
On Google Chrome and Internet Explorer 6, it Works Fine and Displays the Images Well. :rolleyes:
I think it should be something in the Coding that makes the Flash Player Application not to be 100% Compatible with FireFox. :confused:
I Hope it can be Fixed because Most Persons Use Firefox Today. :(

Permissions on the images folder and its contents, make sure they are readable. IE seems to work around it somehow, likely in the way it sends the request. But when FF sends the request it gets a 403 error, and you don;t get a image. Same thing would happen if you tried to go to the image directly.
The other possible cause is server setup. If your server has some .htaccess rules that attempt to prevent hotlinking that could also lead to this. If your permissions are correct, ask your host why those images aren't accessible and why the server is returning a 403 error.

Andrew,
I am still having trouble with images not showing in FF, even after doing a clean install of the latest update. Previously some images would show at different times, now absolutely none show. I have no .htaccess rules that prevent hotlinking that I know of, every other image on my server is accessible and shows fine on the site in FF. Even in the Casino which I have installed. Are there any known conflicts with other mods that you know of? There is absolutely no problem w/permissions that I can see. I know that it's just not me experiencing this problem as others here are experiencing it. My members who use FF are also experiencing this problem. Just to be on the safe side here are screen shots of the permissions of the gameroom & image folder and one of the image files on my server.

The Folder is Readable (755 Permission on the Folder).
I Have Hotlinking Protection on the Server but I Authorize it for the Forum Domain, so All Images Are Displayed Without Problem in it; I don't think that's the Problem, otherwise the problem would be on Google Chrome too, but on Chrome the Mod Works Well. :(

I Confirm that the Problem of Not Display of Images is Caused by Hotlinking when the Option to "Allow Direct Calls of URLs" is Disabled.
It can be Solve simply by "Selecting/Activating" on Hotlinking the Option to "Allow Direct Requests of URLs of Files with the Web Browser".

Excuse my ignorance as I'm not really a master at these things yet, but where exactly would I find what you are referring to
On the CPanel Applicatio where you can Configure Your Account, there is an Option for "Hotlink Protection", there you can set to Enable/Disable thar Feature and also the URLs that won't be Affected by it and the Files You'd like to Protect; and also the Option to "Allow Direct Requests of URLs of Files with the Web Browser" when the Hotlink Protection is Enabled, which is the one that is needed to be Activated for the Images to be Displayed on FireFox.
I Also Realized that this same Option when Enabled allow the Scores to be Saved on the IBProArcade Arcade Systemm which otherwise would'nt be Saved for many Games, and also things like the Sound in some Games that didn't Worked Before is Now Working Fine after Enabling that Option on the Hotlink Feature.

Can we 'activate' certain games and not others per usergroup? I haven't tried to download and read the readme file, so I'm not sure.
Since we are a 'family' site, I'd like to give my members the option of 'opting in' to a casino-enabled usergroup. Then, I could grant permission to that usergroup of all of the 'gameroom' games.
Oh, and I read this on the official vBgaming site...
Checkers is pretty much done, Sit-n-go tournaments on the poker games are underway. Probably have one other board game in there as well.
....so, that's a good thing for family sites like mine! Checkers and the other board game would be great! :up:

Within a day or two you will be able to turn on / off groups. So you can override the general usertype permissions for all the poker games, or all the board games. But not on a per game basis.

When i change admin to usertype = 6, mod = 6, i can not access gameroom admin. My admin group id = 6, what is wrong here?
Here is a Snippet from the "Readme"
Go to the Gameroom and open the "Admin" tab, the user that installed the product is the only user that has permission to do this at this point.
Check your "UserID" number.
I think this MOD uses the installers UserID as the only admin and moderator.
If you changed it to 6, your probably removed yourself & gave UserID #6 on your forum admin and mod access to your game room settings.
I had the same prob, uninstalled the plugin, & re-installed and admin option came back. Then noticed that the user-type matched my UserID... coincidence maybe, I don't know... But works when I leave it alone. lol
Great MOD though, so far I'm loving it... way better than the old casino we had.
My only suggestion at this point, one to consider for the next update would be to ditch the vague "UserType" description or wording and actually distinguish between "UserID" & "UserGroup" in the admin settings.
Keep up good work... :up:

On the CPanel Applicatio where you can Configure Your Account, there is an Option for "Hotlink Protection", there you can set to Enable/Disable thar Feature and also the URLs that won't be Affected by it and the Files You'd like to Protect; and also the Option to "Allow Direct Requests of URLs of Files with the Web Browser" when the Hotlink Protection is Enabled, which is the one that is needed to be Activated for the Images to be Displayed on FireFox.
I Also Realized that this same Option when Enabled allow the Scores to be Saved on the IBProArcade Arcade Systemm which otherwise would'nt be Saved for many Games, and also things like the Sound in some Games that didn't Worked Before is Now Working Fine after Enabling that Option on the Hotlink Feature.
My Best Regards.

Within a day or two you will be able to turn on / off groups. So you can override the general usertype permissions for all the poker games, or all the board games. But not on a per game basis.
Great, can't wait! :up:
Should point out that was in the context of the paid version, not the one here ;)
Oh, sorry about that. :)

Was working for about 5 minutes after install. In the admin panel I unclicked "Allow Transfer" and then it locked up and this is what the screen now looks like when I got to gameroom.php.
Uninstall and reinstall fixes this but every time I unclick "Allow Transfer" this happens.
I'll look into it, is that the only change you are making?
where does this file get uploaded to?
Note: There is a 2mb upload limit, so the flash banner came out of the main .zip which finally pushed itself over 2mb.
Main Forum folder, same place as gameroom.swf
tried that, didn't work. Still only works with IE, not FF nor Opera.:(
You likely have some sort of image hotlinking in place. Why IE gets around it and the others don't I'm not sure. If you are using CPanel I believe it is controlled through that.

Hi Andrew!
Installed! Very nice.
Strange, however. After installing we changed the admin rights to the admin group and the mod group, and now the admin panel is nowhere to be found !!
I am sure we changed it properly, however, we had one admin panel opened in Opera, and it would not permit us to type in the forms, so we opened another admin panel in FF3. We added the correct setting for admins and mods.... and now, no admin panel!
What can we do?

Hi Andrew,
Your front page instructions say:
Locked self out of admin panel
In the tools folder there is a file called 'makemeadmin.php', upload this and go to that page. It will make you admin, don't leave it on your server when you are done.
However, there is no "makemeadmin.php" anywhere in the distribution.
Also, I checked the DB, and all is OK.

Chess game does not log moves!
Also, Chess does not record games, won-loss of player matches, etc.
And, Chess, cannot save game and return another time to play??
This is a "good start" but is far from useful for most people who play chess. Most people play chess online over many days, because they are busy. All games should be recorded. One of the most important parts of a Chess game is the record of the moves! Also, it is not interesting if there is no record of who played, what happened, who won against whom, etc.
Sorry, this is a disappointing implementation. The chat refresh is annoying at best. I am locked out of the adminCP but the database shows correct usergroups using phpMyAdmin. Cannot type in Opera, but OK in FF3 and Safari........

Comments from various forum users who tried The Gameroom:
Cannot type in the gameroom when I am using Opera. FF3 and Safari OK.
Chat refresh blinks entire flash module... annoying.
Chess does not record moves, cannot save game, does not record wins or loses.... (heard it does in the paid version, some of this, but the bugs still exist).
Card games, etc. are not as nice as in the Casino mod .... resolution not nice at all......
Solo card games don't seem too buggy - but resolution not great.
Switching from e.g chess to lobby and back means multiple here I am , oh I'm gone messages and would time you out - i.e. you'd have to stay for the duration of the game and experience no network glitches..
The timeout and "have to stay in your room thing" to play Chess is bad news.

Moves are logged, but only for the purpose of checking 50-move and 30-fold repetition. You can't view a game after the fact. Ranked games, which record win/loss and calculate rank are only in the paid version.
The goal here is games played in realtime against other users, not make a move and come back the next day to make another sort of games.

Never heard of the Opera issue, Opera always worked for me and I do a good chunk of my testing in it. As for your admin rights, it want's userID, not User Group ID.

Hi.
Still have Opera problem. I looked in settings.php and found admins and mod should be userid. It is OK now, but I think userid is better. We have 20 mods and add them by group, not user.
Also, we noticed your "color picker" does not permit us had a value unless the value is in your grid.
Also, your sports pool has a bug, creates double entries. Screen shots attached.
Also, we edited settings.php and changed the timers so people can at least play a game of Chess over a 30 day period, if they wish, LOL. "Real time".... hahahaha. You must have nothing to do but play games.... our forum is fully of pros who want to interact with each other without time controls.
PS: We pulled down your latest version of this code today. Screen shots of the files in the distro attached. You can easily see there is only one file in "tools" and it is not the one you mention ;)

Well, you should listen to your potential customers and add the bare minimum features Chess players expect ;) There are "toys" and then there are "real toys"..... LOL :D
All people who play Chess that I know what to see the moves, just like a Chess matches, just like in the papers, just like in books.
Also, the same "real players" want to see the recorded moves saved, especially if the game is a good one!
These are just basic "Chess 101" features......
Cheers.
PS: How do we make the sound volume default to 10% v. the annoying 50% :confused: Could not find it in the PHP code.

Is it browser specific? as in it works in IE, but not firefox?
If so it is likely a hot linking prevention problem.
If not and its only the poker games that seem effected check your uploads, if not all the files overwrote a previous version you can get that effect.

I can't seem to get images working in IE7 or FF...
Gameroom is uploaded as follows:
http://www.edgegamers.org/forums/gameroom.php
http://www.edgegamers.org/forums/gameroom/images/
All images are broken in this configuration.
As an attempted fix, I uploaded the "gameroom" folder to http://www.edgegamers.org/gameroom and set one of the poker chips to "/gameroom/images/chip-1.gif" - now all images are broken except for that single chip.
What have I done wrong in the directory structure to cause images to not display? Flash drives me absolutely nuts because I cannot see what it's even attempting to load from. Help would be appreciated.
Edit:
I fixed the issue. I had to modify the "gameroom" template in vBulletin. By default, it looks for the .swf files from your forum root. For whatever reason, these .swf files were placed in the /gameroom folder in the zip. Moving these to the root folder fixed the issue.

FYI, Andrew,
I was mod'ing your code in class_boardgame.php, making it so our view of the board games includes games which are not active (using gameroom_board_game.winner in db WHERE clause) and noticed that you have a conflict in your code with gameroom_board_game.gameName (using that for the cute name you give a game) and $gameName (the variable you use in HTML output to hold "Chess" or "Reversi" or other game).
I was able to get my mod to work correctly only when I deconflicted the "gameName" variable used in two different ways. Not sure why the conflict exists, but it does exist. I found other errors too, FYI.

Try disabling the banner plugins, those are the only things that can effect every page. That said, nothing touches either that file or that function anywhere in my code, so I'm guessing... I suspect you have another plugin or modification that is not playing nice with mine.
