Notes

enforcing rules was a hot request for my vb3.6 chess mod. This version has INCOMPLETE rules enforcing that is disabled. You could enable it by editing the code, however this will probably render most games unplayable at some point.
This version is quasi-compatible with the vb3.6 version; however it requires some messing around to get it to work. At some point in the future I will release /something/ to convert between the two, however I don't have an ETA on this. Anyone asking for one without making a donation is likely to be ignored. UPDATE: this wasn't needed on my board, as members weren't interested in saving their old games, I will only work on this if requested by a donator.

Translations/Reposting

Please DO NOT repost this mod on other vbulletin resource sites.

Translations may be posted in this thread, however the product isn't fully phrased at the moment so translations will be harder to do.

[Skyrider]

Got any demo? Sounds great btw!

[TimberFloorAu]

Can you give us a list of games that would work with your PBP plugin ?

Stuff similar to : http://www.myth-weavers.com ?

Also some interesting Links:

http://www.treasuretables.org/wiki/index.php?title=Play-by-Post_Forums

This isnt something we have ever dabbled with, but could be promising for our community ( tagged )

[Carnage]

you could have a look at the chess forum on vb4.giveupalready.com but as thats my development site atm, it may have features that the version released dosn't have yet.

@timber:
What you've linked there are play by post role playing forums. While it would be possible to make role playing aids as a pbpg plugins, the aim was to get something more general along the lines of a multiplayer arcade with games such as chess, batgammon, checkers, poker and other classics.

Currently this is the only plugin that works with my pbpg mod, however I intend to release more (once this one is a bit more feature complete) and intend to encourage other developers to release some (once the core part is more complete)

[TimberFloorAu]

TBH we wouldnt want RPG's.

Our members are more into 1 on 1 strategy games, from cards to draughts :up:

[Carnage]

I got it installed but how do you actually move the pieces and set up two players against each other?

From the admin side; I'm going to assume you followed the install instructions and have managed to create a configuration and assigned it to a forum.

From there, you need to goto the forum you assigned it to; create a new thread. There will be a list of avaliable games to play on the post new thread form. Select the chess configuration you just made. Make a post, at this point it dosn't really matter what you say in it.

The thread will then display as a chess board, with a comments box at the bottom and a moves list at the side. Clicking any piece on the chess board will select it (red border) and selecting an empty space (or space containing an enemy piece) will move it there. You will notice that some characters representing the move you just made were put into the quick reply box and the move was added to the moves list. You may now add a comment to the quick reply box (maybe something like 'check' or 'good move') and post a reply.Only when you've posted the reply has the move become commited.

Anyone who views the thread can now see your move. By default the first two people to post valid moves become white and black respectivly, but you can change this by adding the string (option,white,<username for white>) and (option,black,<username for black>) to your first post.

[ShawnV]

Hey Carnage, very nice Mod. Any Idea when you will have this and the core fleshed out and all the features in?

The version on your site seems to work very well.

[Carnage]

The core has all the features required /at the moment/ It will at some point need expanding to support leaderboards and ladders.

My major focus for this mod atm is getting the user interface tidied up; i'm currently supporting 5 vb4 products and working on 3 Projects for university. This combined with getting my own site upgraded to vb 4 leaves me somewhat unable to make any predictions. In no particular order, my next 3 planned releases include a feature update for this mod, a none beta version of my advanced ip ban manager, preferably with some more features included and a version of my friendly url customisation mod that allows customisation of the uri as well as the start segment of the url. I also want to release some more games; go, checkers/draughts, othelo/reversi are high on my priority list due to their similarity to this mod (lots of reusable code :P)

[ShawnV]

Installed, noticed that it doesn't have the how to game notes in the post with the board as it does on your site, ergo how to play it, commands.

Would be great if whatever side the player started as was auto set to that side, I moved a black piece first and it recorded it as whites move, I forgot to use the option,black,<username> to set myself to black beforehand, something which I'm sure allot of players will do.

Also, it works fine for me as Admin, however when a registered user clicks on the thread with the game I get this database error as do they.

Database error in vBulletin 4.0.1:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT post.postid
FROM post AS post

WHERE post.threadid = 113
AND post.visible = 1

ORDER BY post.dateline
LIMIT 0, 1.0E+14;

[Carnage]

Yeah, the version on my site is the vb3 version; its got a lot more features implemented in it as i've been developing it longer; with the advent of vb4 changing all the style stuff, i've had to reimplement the entire user interface.

A good portion of the interface is done and will be in the next release; feel free to copy the instructions from my site in the interim thou. There are also some faq entries, but these will be out of date as since i've had to reimplement the user interface, i'm improved it quite a bit as well.

For the db error, find the get ALL posts plugin (from the pbpg core) find this line:

$perpage = 99999999999999999; //should be enough...


change to:

$perpage = 99999999; //should be enough...



This will be fixed in the next pbpg core release.

[ShawnV]

Awesome, looking forward to the update.

Oh, I noticed that I cannot deselect a forum once I have selected it for the game, even after uninstalling the plug in, it still leaves the game selection drop-down option when you create a post. Not sure if you knew about that.

[Carnage]

Little known fact, if you ctrl+ click a selected item in a multi select box, in most browsers it de-selects it. You can use this to remove plugin from a forum.

The reason that uninstalling it dosn't help is that the uninstall code is currently //todo. It'll probably be there in the next release.

[ShawnV]

If possible, It would be good to post an uninstall script for this since uninstalling the product does nothing at the moment.

[Carnage]

$q = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_plugin WHERE dir='chess'");
$q2 = $db->query("SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_pluginconfig WHERE pbpg_pluginid = $q[pbpg_pluginid]");
while($row=$db->fetch_array($q2))
{
foreach($vbulletin->forumcache AS $forum)
{
$test = unserialize($forum['pbpg_enabledpluginconfigs']);
if(isset($test[$row['pbpg_pluginconfigid']]))
{
print_cp_message('Error Plugin still in use. Remove all configs using this plugin from forums its enabled in and delete all threads using it before removing the plugin.');
}
}
$threads = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."thread WHERE pbpg_pluginconfigid = $row[pbpg_pluginconfigid]");
if(is_array($threads))
{
print_cp_message('Error Plugin still in use. Remove all configs using this plugin from forums its enabled in and delete all threads using it before removing the plugin.');
}
}
$db->query_write("DELETE FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_pluginconfig WHERE pbpg_pluginid = $q[pbpg_pluginid]");
$db->query_write("DELETE FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_plugin WHERE pbpg_pluginid = $q[pbpg_pluginid]");

That will do it, however you should remove any configs that use the plugin from the forums you have them enabled in first.

The next version will ship with uninstall code.

Edit: updated with safer uninstall code.

[Carnage]

Uploaded beta 1 of this product.

Most important improvment of note is a substantial improvment to the user interface; more information has been added to the default display and the thread starter gets a form to set game options untill the first move is posted.

For anyone who is interested; i've also begun work on a tournaments mod which will be released soon. (At the point at which it first becomes usable)

[Carnage]

Added some screenshots.

[TimberFloorAu]

All we get is Blank Chess Board

[TimberFloorAu]

Your plugin image path is wrong:

http://www.yobromofo.com/pbpg_plugins/chess/images/bR.gif

Should be

http://www.yobromofo.com/forum/pbpg_plugins/chess/images/bR.gif

[TimberFloorAu]

Also in chess product, all gif paths are wrong. In our case I have had to prefix with /forum

[TimberFloorAu]

Have fixed product file, now working your paths assume the mod is installed in root

So prefixed all /pbpg with /forum

[TimberFloorAu]

Decided to uninstall. Unable to do so.

All threads deleted.
All forums de-selected.

ANy suggestions.?

[Carnage]

delete the configurations then try.

If that fails and you've only got this installed, remove the core product first.

[TimberFloorAu]

You cannot Deselect the bloody game from forums, even using Ctrl+mouse click

Therefore configs cannot be deleted.
Mate I would pull this mod, until it is actually safe to install and uninstall. Waiting for updates to uninstall !

Removing core product first still makes no difference.

[Carnage]

I have just tested the ctrl+click to remove in 3 browsers: firefox, chrome and internet explorer it works in all of them. That said, I will update the core product to use checkboxes from now on since that'll work out easier for unselecting them. If you've removed the core product change the uninstall code to this


$q = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_plugin WHERE dir='chess'");
$db->query_write("DELETE FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_pluginconfig WHERE pbpg_pluginid = $q[pbpg_pluginid]");
$db->query_write("DELETE FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_plugin WHERE pbpg_pluginid = $q[pbpg_pluginid]");


to forcibly remove the mod.

EDIT: Alternativly, you can update to the newest version of the core. Based on your feedback i've added tools to make removal much easier.

[TimberFloorAu]

Appreciate your reply.

However, still cannot get rid of the chess plugin. Now throwing up db errors.

Latest: An error occurred while attempting to execute your query. The following information was returned.
error number: 1064
error desc: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '$q = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_plugin WHERE dir='che' at line 1

[Carnage]

You sure you used the exact code above? It seems you've tried to pass $q = $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM ". TABLE_PREFIX."pbpg_plugin WHERE dir='che into the database somewhere; thats teh only way it would have returned that.

[TimberFloorAu]

How about :

Doing a full explanation on removing "your" product.

[Carnage]

ok, manual uninstallation:

remove the uninstallation code.
remove product.
delete pbpg_plugins/chess
remove pbpg core product.
remove pbpg_plugin and pbpg_pluginconfig tables

I have just checked and double checked. The latest versions of all the products install/uninstall correctly.

[TimberFloorAu]

Ok, thankyou.

It will not allow removal of chess plugin. Stating it has to be removed from config of forums, but it isnt enabled in a single forum

[Carnage]

If you've deleted the uninstall code from the chess plugin, it will not do anything to prevent its removal.

Alternativly: upgrade both the core and this product to the latest versions and then uninstall.

[TimberFloorAu]

I have tried that. Will give it one more go.

[TimberFloorAu]

Ok Deleted.

But you still have issues with file paths.

Images to chess pieces are not showing up, I posted this in one of your threads.
I imagine that is why the game doesnt work, also because paths are incorrect

[Carnage]

I'm planning a release as soon as I'm able to get it finished.

Will feature privacy mode; admin settings for the images directory and commands to change the games status (eg checkmate, stalemate etc) an important step towards being able to do cool things like tracking user stats and integrating into my tournaments and ladders mod.

[Carnage]

Update released.

[ShawnV]

Hey Carnage, Ive installed and uninstalled the latest versions of this and the core and I still have the pbpg_chess_blackbg & pbpg_chess_whitebg Stylevars.

[Carnage]

That seems to be a bug in vbulletin; I just checked the delete product code; there is no code to remove added style vars.

Edit: Did some research; known bug in 4.0.2 http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/project.php?issueid=36241

Ah thanks man, figures. lol

Yo.

We've got the correct image path on our forums, and it does display the pieces. However, it's not allowing us to set players and make moves and stuff.

If it helps at all, we DO get this javaScript error when loading a thread that has the board:

I looking chess for 3.8.4....


Check my profile, I released a chess mod for 3.6+ that'll work on 3.8 with a change to add in the security token to the template.

[Carnage]

I've updated the first post with a link to a live demo on my site; this mod and the other PBPG mods are at the top of my list for updates and new features once i've got my masters project done. I'm hoping to be able to post an update in about two weeks.

[Giray]

Uploaded all files in both products including .js files. Installed both products. Created forum. New thread shows up fine with all the pieces.
Just can't select and move pieces...

[Carnage]

Thats a known issue, planned to be fixed in the beta 4 release. The fix for now is to edit the PBPG chess template and change the javascript paths from /pbpg_plugins/... to /forums/pbpg_plugins/... or whichever directory your forum is installed in.

I've added this information to the first post for now; the next release is planned to be out soon.

[Carnage]

Beta 4 Released.

Alot of thigns done in this release; including two bug fixes and numerous enhancements to the user interface.

Any chance to upload non beta version soon?

[Carnage]

I have a google like addiction to prolonged betas. My reasoning behind this is down to the vast number of possible configurations of forums.

At the time of release, none of my mods will have known bugs. An alpha release is usually something which has only been installed and tested on my development board. A beta or RC release is one which has been installed on one or more of my production boards and has been running stably for some time. I only consider something good enough for a full 'gold' release once its got a good number of installs recorded on here with no complaints of major (anything other than a cosmetic issue) unfixed bugs.

[Pro-eSports.com]

There is one in the works actually; there are still a few bugs in it and I don't have any graphics done for it yet but I'm planning to release ASAP.

chess pieces disappearing during games

games freezing and no opponents being able to make a move

in one game all the pieced turned to rooks and there were one on every square

many more niggily bugs that resorted in members giving up playing.

also if 2 members agrred to have a game and one set the game up while the other wasn't there, even if they put the members names in anyone could join the game and start playing - is that supposed to happen?

[Carnage]

Do you still have a copy of the threads? If I could see the sequence of commands that generated the bugs I'd have a better shot at fixing them.

[Carnage]

Beta 5 released; this version requires the latest version of the core product released about half an hour ago.

This adds support for automatic tournaments (with latest version of T+L mod due for release soon) and support for statistics from games.

Thanks; I've figured out the issue.

It seems that for chess and presumably checkers, the user names entered are case-sensitive.

I'm moving up the next release priority and will include a fix for this issue; for now make use of the auto-complete on the set usernames box to get the correct capitalisation for the username

How may i do the castling in this game??

Same as you would if playing at home, move the king two spaces left or right then jump the castle over it; post it as a single move not as two.

Unable to find plugin admin file. Did you upload all the files that came with this game?

Why am I getting this error in admin?

Any ideas guys? Cause i would love to see this mod working.
Im a huge fan of chess.

@revmitchell: probably because you didn't upload all the product files.

@DAMINK: what version of vbulletin?

@ahlynews: there isn't supposed to be a quick reply when playing a game, the controls are at the right hand side of the board.

It's an interesting mod. I'm not sure if you have it for 3.8.x ?

So, does this thing work? I have some members who would love this, but it needs to actually work.
