Mass PHP error within v3.8.5

[Dan!]

Hi,

I dont know if other people are experiencing this error, but I seem to be getting it more than once which leads me to believe its due to a error within the vBulletin interface.

I've recently downloaded every file fresh from my vBulletin client area for v3.8.5, only after then I've been experiencing these problems.

I've just got the above error when trying to:
-- Adding a custom page using the article in the vb3 forums
-- Adding v3Arcade, this is coming directly from arcade.php

Its like the files arnt supporting the action, so its preventing me from using the features I wish to impliment.

Also, just got this from the v3Arcade page (arcade.php):
Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /home/socialop/public_html/includes/init.php
Line: 55


If anyone would like to assist then please do so, but if a member of vBulletin development team could look at the issue then I'd be very pleased.

This has also been posted on vBulletin main forums for bug spotting!

As I said in your report, the deprecation is due to php v5.3.x. You must ask your host to downgrade to php v5.2.x

v3arcade support is found in the mod thread and at www.v3arcade.com
