There were no error showing in the logs.

Hi, where do I get the games?

[smile2me]

Import Games under DBtech-vbarcade side panel

[gmhastings]

Hi there,
I would love to get this working on a forum I'm intending to upgrade later to vB5.x . I'm using 5.0.4 at the moment.

I installed following the instructions (now actually for the 4th time after restoring) but when I click on the Arcade option, it's just showing me the forum index again (but without the usual 'NEW TOPICS
WHO'S ONLINE
MARK CHANNELS READ
MEMBER LIST' at the top before the Forum Index is shown.

Any ideas please?

I was thinking maybe it's something to do with a mod rewrite type thing / route parameter thing but I still can't find it. Alternatively, maybe I'm missing a file.

I hope you can suggest some other things I can look into.

Hopeful thanks in advance :)

[DragonByte Tech]

I am currently in the process of re-testing our mods for 5.0.4 compatibility.

Meanwhile, you may be able to fix it by clicking Repair Cache in the AdminCP - that will install the necessary elements on the page.

Fillip

[gmhastings]

Hi Fillip,

Thanks very much for your reply.

I did try the Repair Cache on the AdminCP for the Arcade and I tried the Clear System Cache but unfortunately, it still shows the forum.

Incidentally, it's installed on a subdomain rather than www. (just in case that makes a difference).

Thanks
Gene

[DragonByte Tech]

I don't think it would, it's probably an issue with installing the new page content. We'll see once the update is live :)


Fillip

[gmhastings]

OK .. Also, whilst I can Import games via the AdminCP, again if I attempt to play one (from the AdminCP) it gives me a

'Topic not found. You may have followed an invalid link or the topic may have been deleted or moved to another forum.' error

which makes me think something about reading the URL is not working correctly.

Anyway, of course I'l happily wait for your update.

[DragonByte Tech]

<font size="3">vBArcade v2.0.2 Alpha 4</font>
Change: 5.0.4 is now the minimum required version
Change: Changed module wrapper to use the built-in template
Fix: Fixed various other CSS change issues
Fix: The avatar for the Welcome block is now the correct size

Fillip

[gmhastings]

Thanks Fillip. The arcade page now shows correctly.

However, now when I submit a score (from an IBProArcade game at least) / when the game ends (I tried a few different games all from a previous IBProArcade install) and when the page returns it says that "You appear to be playing a game; starting this might forfeit that session."

I checked the 'sessions' table and it only showed the 'start' time. If I click 'Cancel Session' after - it does update the sessions table, but it's not recording any scores.

I tried quickly looking for a game from Mochi that I could submit a local score (I assume that's what it means, but I couldn't see anything that submitted a score - or possibly the game was, but it wasn't working for some reason).

Here are few recent log entries. I hope these might help discover why the scores are not being submitted.

Thanks very much for your time making this mod :)

[DragonByte Tech]

When you import games, there should be a small message and a golden crown that says "Supports local scoring" if the game does indeed support it.

By default, Notices are suppressed - what version of PHP are you running? Does it hide the notices if you change the default error_reporting level to E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT ?

Fillip

[Baigo]

I'm using games supporting local scoring. Scores are not really saved locally.

[skol]

Are we going to see an update for the arcade in vb5.0.5..After install the highscore games imported fine all permissions set correctly,games play fine from admincp.However.

Frontend the links to play the games follow the path www.yoursite.com/#
Gamescores won't submit.
After playing a game all you can do is click on cancel session.


Be nice to see the arcade being looked after and kept updated promptly seeing that this will probably be the only arcade available for vb5.Being the arcades in vbulletin are one of the oldest modifications,priority should be paramount as opposed to other mods and obviously in the interest of DBTech..

[DragonByte Tech]

Please remain patient while I am currently bogged down with other projects. I will be looking into updating our vB5 mods for 5.0.5 as soon as I have the time.

Thank you for your patience and understanding :)

hi

when i tried to import games, why does the service only show mochi?
do i have to subscribe first to get game service from others?

[Brad Padgett]

You always do a good job with mods DragonByte.

I wanted to request in your future versions a modification similar to VBexperience but for vb5.

I was wanting to implement an award system but can't find any mods for it.

Work for vBulletin 5.1.4 Beta 2?

I understand that it is uncomfortable to change the plugin code whenever vBulletin make radical changes in their latest versions.

But as they come out new version of vBulletin I think I should update their plugins because these final versions of vBulletin is that we will work in the future.

You can try it, but if it don't work, it probably won't get updated till 5.1.4 is out of beta. It is difficult to support beta releases, as things may change and break it again.

when i click the arcade tab in the navbar.... it just loads a blank page

also if i click the "begin" button to browse games from "mochi" i get this error:

i did import one game manually (asteroids) but does not seem to affect the loading of the page (still blank if i try to link to the game directly)

any ideas?

Hey,

That would indicate you are attempting to import games from ibProArcade, could you please confirm the exact steps you are taking when you see this error?

Fillip

[halkum]

Hello.

Is there a way to import games that were installed to vb4 to the vb5 installation? I lost my games drive a couple of years ago and only have what is installed to my vb4 board I'd love to pull into vb5.

[BugOutGirl]

I too get a blank white page when I click on the arcade tab.

Is this maybe because I have no games installed yet?

I'm also having trouble browsing games...

When I click browse here:

I get this screen:
http://i.imgur.com/MQvwklV.jpg

Would love to get it working.

[kylek]

Same thing as people already posted. Click arcade get blank page. Go to import game that the tar file was uploaded to the import folder, click begin and nothing happens except get taking back to "forums" page" that shows this - Invalid Page URL. If this is an error and the page should exist, please contact the system administrator and tell them how you got this message.

Then get database error in email:

Also when you are on the import games page or manage games page this is also showing:

I put out a hotfix that should resolve ACP issues.

[kylek]

Uploaded the latest version from dbtech - installed.

Still cant see anything except forum home page when clicking on the "Arcade" link in the navigation bar.

When I am in admincp - dbtect vbarcade - configurations - all 3 settings when clicked takes me to a highlighted forum tab page that shows this:

Invalid Page URL. If this is an error and the page should exist, please contact the system administrator and tell them how you got this message.

Now have tried to upload a game - have tar file (for example game_towerblasterv32.tar) and uploaded it via ftp to .com/testvb/core/packages/dbtechvbarcade/import

Now go to admincp - dbtech - vbarcade - import games - click begin,

Once again, get taken back to the forums page with the message 0
Invalid Page URL. If this is an error and the page should exist, please contact the system administrator and tell them how you got this message.

At the same time via email get database error;

Database error in vBulletin 5.2.1: Invalid SQL: SELECT c_id, cat_name FROM games_cats ORDER BY pos ASC, cat_name ASC /**fetchGameCategories-ipA- vbarcade**/; MySQL Error : Table 'xxxx_testvb.games_cats' doesn't exist Error Number : 1146 Request Date : Wednesday, April 27th 2016 @ 07:49:48 PM Error Date : Wednesday, April 27th 2016 @ 07:49:48 PM Script : http:///testvb/admincp/arcade_admin.php?do=import Referrer : http://xxxxxxxxx.com/testvb/admincp/index.php?do=nav (http://yorkiepartners.com/testvb/admincp/index.php?do=nav) IP Address : xx.xx.x.xxx Username : xxxx Classname : vB_Database_MySQLi MySQL Version : 5.6.29

Would be nice to see this working on vb 5.2.1 stable release as this is what is holding me back from updating a couple of vb4 sites to vb5.

[DragonByte Tech]

You should not try to import games from ibpArcade unless you have this mod's tables still active in your database.

Fillip

[kylek]

I am not trying to import from ibparcade at all and am trying to get this to work on a test vb setup, new install of vb5 and arcade, database is new so no old vbarcade database settings.

I have a couple of discs of saved games saved over several years, most are ibproarcade games.

[DragonByte Tech]

If your live site is not running vB5 I would strongly recommend sticking with vB4, as it is very stable and not prone to these kind of issues.

Fillip

[kylek]

ACP issues look like they are now working, was able to add a couple of categorys and bulk import some games.

Still have issue of seeing blank page when you click on Arcade. If you edit the page you see everything there - 9 modules, but when page saved its just a blank page.

I can go in and play a game by entering: http://xxxxxxx.xxx/forum/vbarcade/play/BlastBilliardsCombo and game plays but doesn't save score.

When on the admincp page - Manage Games - and you click play you get a funky url:

http://xxxxxx.xxx/forum/admincp/http://xxxxxxx.xxxx/forum/vbarcade/play/BlastBilliardsCombo

And still getting the database error of "Table 'pokerlau_testvb.games_cats' doesn't exist"

[kylek]

Been playing with this a bit today and now do not have a blank arcade page anymore. When you edit the arcade page at first all the modules are in a group and nothing shows. I started to move them around, removed them and added them back and now they show.

Still cant get games to score. When a game is finished and score submitted a page shows for a few seconds that says "A systems error occurred" "the software has experienced a systems error" .

[DragonByte Tech]

Are you sure the game supports local scoring? Pretty much all of the game sites that once were supported for remote scoring have since shuttered so their scoring systems will no longer function.

Fillip

[kylek]

I am not using games from remote sites that do remote scoring. All are uploaded to our site.

The same games I use on 4 sites that have vBArcades (vb4) and have no problems saving scores are the ones I am trying on the vb5 vBArcade version.

Curious about something - when installing a vb4 version of vBArcade there was a bunch of stuff added to the htaccess file where you either added it manually or cmodded to 777. Was this changed for vb5 vBArcade?

[DragonByte Tech]

I am not using games from remote sites that do remote scoring. All are uploaded to our site.All games are stored on your site regardless, but some games such as Mochi ones are scored by submitting to a remote server.

Curious about something - when installing a vb4 version of vBArcade there was a bunch of stuff added to the htaccess file where you either added it manually or cmodded to 777. Was this changed for vb5 vBArcade?As far as I can tell, this should no longer be needed.

While I have noticed some errors in the product that have been resolved locally, I can't replicate the DB error posted before.

Could you please provide a screen recording of this issue in action?

[WildSharky]

I have vb 5.2.2 and fresh install the arcade installed and I even imported some games but if you click play on the game just take you to the forums home page. I have to type or copy part of the url from the admincp to play the game and the score are not working. anyway you can check this out and see why its not working right. ill pm you all the info you need.

Hi there,

Could you please try downloading a fresh copy from here: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/store/product/289-vbarcade-vb5-beta/ and let me know if this works for you? I seem to recall making similar hotfixes in the past, but I'm not sure if I actually uploaded them to vB.org yet.

Thanks!


Fillip

[WildSharky]

sure and ill let you know how it goes

[WildSharky]

uninstalled and upload files and reinstalled and same thing plus I forgot to add that in admincp when you click play it take you here Invalid Page URL. http://www.gadgets-n-games.com/admincp/http://www.gadgets-n-games.com/vbarcade/play/bloodyorcaspp

[WildSharky]

and on the arcade page the categories don't show no games when you click them

[DragonByte Tech]

I'll look into it as soon as I'm able :)


Fillip

[WildSharky]

all the categories show but you click on anything except ALL its empty

[WildSharky]

ok thanks a lot

[WildSharky]

is anyone using this arcade that has these same problems?Ive tried everything so Im wondering if its my server or all having problems
thanks a lot I love the arcade just no scores

[kylek]

I had the same issues with the arcade when testing it out and am waiting to see if things get fixed with it.

[WildSharky]

thanks bro that makes me feel better(I guess)maybe someone will help with the problems and make this arcade super nice

[WildSharky]

been awhile with no response.Vb 5.2.3 is out and installed and that didn't help the arcade so for now we have setup the vb4 version on another site until someone can fix this one

[DragonByte Tech]

Sorry, I've not had a chance to look into anything related to this for a while. I would recommend that any site wanting to use custom modifications install vBulletin 4 instead, as it is much more customisation friendly compared to vB5 at this time.

That being said, I do intend to look into these issues, I just need the time :)


Fillip

[WildSharky]

I know how it is Im doing this as a hobby and I never have enough time,thanks alot

You dont need Mochi Media to have an arcade..

Where to download games then? Never used this before, but users are asking :)

OK, installed and downloaded games from another site.

Issue:

Games are running fine. While submitting score it says:

A System Error has occured. (see pic)

I filled in all the required fields. But I'm not sure what they're asking for Game ID? Where can this be located and is there an example?

Also can u recommend websites to use that include game id?

[Ashlar217]

Ok, so I had reported a few weeks ago that i couldnt get any of the arcade modules to show up on the arcade page. I checked into a few sites running this arcade on 5.2.4 boards, and found that all the sites who appear to be running the arcade script successfully, are using a 2 column layout on the arcade page.

I had been using a 3 column layout for my vb5.2.4. I tested this by changing the arcade page layout to a 2 column layout instead.

Results: All the arcade modules now appear as they should on the arcade page as long as i dont try to run a 3 column layout on the arcade page.

[Ashlar217]

Still cant get games to score. When a game is finished and score submitted a page shows for a few seconds that says "A systems error occurred" "the software has experienced a systems error" .

all the categories show but you click on anything except ALL its empty.

I'M getting same errors on 5.2.4. Games play fine up until submitting scores. Ive tried the various options for scoring system such as ipb, vb etc..

At least now I can see the arcade and the games are playable.

Any plans on working on getting this VB5 compatible more? The pro version is what I really need, but I won't invest until I know the lite is on the way to being stable.

[THVossen]

I assume lite version can't add games?

[DragonByte Tech]

Any plans on working on getting this VB5 compatible more? The pro version is what I really need, but I won't invest until I know the lite is on the way to being stable.To be honest, considering the fact that I am still receiving emails about critical bugs and issues I reported over 4 years ago in the Pre-release version of vB5 and how they are just now being cleared out, it would not make sense for us to dedicate significant resources to improving compatibility with vB5.

That's not to say I'll never fix any bugs or anything, I'm just saying it's very unlikely major updates to any of our vB5 products will happen as vB5 is in my opinion a very poorly managed product that has intentionally been made very difficult to develop for.

If we physically cannot produce products that live up to our standards of quality, or even feature parity to the vB4 versions, in spite of reporting these shortcomings during the preview version we were given specifically to report shortcomings, then our hands are pretty much tied.

To put it another way: I know and I understand how frustrating this is to you, but please believe me when I say it's ten times more frustrating for me when I'm faced with support tickets from users like yourself, who just want a working product. Knowing that I can't actually deliver that is incredibly saddening to me.

I assume lite version can't add games?There should be no limitations on adding games to the Lite version as far as I can remember.


Fillip

[Ashlar217]

This is such a shame. I feel the pain of the coders who try their best to provide quality modifications for us. I just don't understand the logic of making a product like this less appealing to customers by limiting it's capabilities?

[DragonByte Tech]

This is such a shame. I feel the pain of the coders who try their best to provide quality modifications for us. I just don't understand the logic of making a product like this less appealing to customers by limiting it's capabilities?I'll admit my wording was coloured by my own frustrations. The fact is, vBulletin 5's priorities now rest solely in the hands of bean counters. To them, making the product more modification friendly is the tiniest of blips, as their data most likely suggests that the vast majority of forum owners do not install any modifications.

For that reason, it makes more sense to them to focus on trying to make the product contain the same features as the previous version (:p).

That's also the reason why they decided to implement our "Advanced User Tagging" product into the core vBulletin product - a lot of people requested it and voted for it in Jira.

Since our ability to eat is directly tied to our ability to produce quality products, vB5 is not a viable strategic location for our (very limited) resources at this time.

Can the Arcade support HTML5 or will it come? If so, when ?

Flash is out and there are almost no new flash games anymore out where you can adapt for the arcades. I am myself gamecoder where flash games adapts.

Just replying to say I've got the same problem with the weird URL in AdminCP and with the play button not working. Clicking play simply returns me to the home page. Quite frustrating, I can't figure out what the problem is.

Same issue, I got some other problems I was having worked out, but this one eludes me. It almost ruins the point of the mod, since members often like to compare their scores. I asked about the status of the mod on DBTech's website and the owner replied with this;

As far as I'm aware, 99% of Arcade game providers have shut down as a result of Flash being blocked by default in a lot of web browsers.

Furthermore, our vB5 mods have not been tested on the latest version of vB5 yet. If you are interested in running custom modifications on your site, I would strongly recommend avoiding vB5 at all costs, as you will not find many working modifications for that platform.

I'll re-test our mods with the latest version of vB5 as soon as I have time

Hopefully he finds some time soon to get some of the kinks worked out for us poor suckers who thought using VB5 was a good idea.

If not, you might want to try http://vbmods.rocks/

Seems like the developer, Glenn, hasn't an issue with Vb5 and making things work according to customer request. Although there isn't enough of Glenn to go around at this point.

I'm going to get him to work on a different project for me in a few weeks, though. So I don't want to bother him with this too. haha

This arcade was never made for v32 flash games.
v32 games need the gamedate folder and the files per game inside it,for the games to save scores.

I have fixed this issue with the vb4 version.

html5 games will work also.

[boss22]

Had never åroblem with v32 flash games on vb4 [DBTech] vBArcade v2

now on vb5 have problem with scores

Confirmed clean install on 5.6.7

Now to find working games

[PrestonM]

I assume this is dead now? No clue where to get the HTML5 games spoke of. I assume they install the same as the old flash games used to? Anyone have a link where to download the HTML5 games from or already have that can be purchased maybe?

[Ashlar217]

Try here for games: https://next-level-arcade.com/forum.php

The owner is very cool, and you can download both flash and html 5 games.

The problem with this mod in it's current state is that first, the scoring doesn't work. but Stannger from the above website helped get it working. There are still other issues, but it is possible to get this working on latest version of vb5.
