Ultima Battle System -- vB Integration [Archive]

Link14716

10-30-2002, 10:00 PM

This is definetly in BETA. I am not feeling too good, and may have missed something in the instructions, but I doubt it. This has been tested minimally. Use at your own peril.

To use this hack, you must have UBS (Ultima Battle System) 1.0.5 installed. You can get it from http://www.gaming-honor.com/hq.

This integrates templates and users between the two. Templates will be ran out of the vB Admin Center like any other template, and users will be equally shared.

REQUIREMENTS:
-Ultima Battle System
-Caffine... lots of it.
-Band-aids.
-A lot of patience.

This is a brutal process, involving renamng every template UBS has and a find/replace spaning through all of the UBS files. If you can survive that, well, then you can get this hack installed.

Support only offered in this thread and the one at UB Systems HQ. Enjoy!

Lol, those Burning Board's are very similar to design of a vBulletin. You can obviously tell who they modeled after.

How about demo's or screenshots Link? If this actually works..
And a demo of it on a vBulletin would be good, not a non-vB.

I'm not interested in installing even if it does, simply curious.

The script itself is a standalone. I was planing not to give screenshots since it doesn't change the appearance of the hack.

It does work, but the battle system ultimately is still pretty buggy. At the same time, this hack doesn't make it more or less buggy :)

My demo is: http://www.vggmn.com/rpg. And whoops, need to post a template change :) That way, people can't use the register.php in the battle system, but need to use the forum's registration. :)

Mmm... I keep seeing the same page in your demo. :)

Is this hack integrated into vB? Ie. does it use the same RPG stats, the same itemshop, points system, as vB, or it this a totally separate program, with pages just being integrated in vB?

Link14716

10-31-2002, 03:03 AM

Erwin, it's a totally seperate program, users has it's own table and things are stored there. With the integration, when users register or update their profile, info is changed on both tables, and I even programmed a p[art to transfer existing members over to the RPG table.

This is only my version 1.0 of the integration. Things will become better later on.

And yes, if you are not registered, you'll see the same page. That is something that was built in by design and needs to be changed to redirecting to the register page, but for now, :P.

Link, since I m bit boring so I decide to give this hack a try and I follow everything in your instruction to T and then use url http://localhost/forum/admin/misc.php?action=irpg

then I got this error:

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.2.8:

Then follow your instruction to edit all of UBS to change the gettemplate(" to gettemplate("rpg_ then rename all of UBS templates for rpg_ And UBS functions.php

After all of it, when I try to open UBS by point the browser to http://localhost/forum/rpg and my local server crashed! I cannot use local server until I reboot. It happen to me three times in row after install this hack and change etc..

What wrong? Why does it crash my local server? Any idea?

you have to get the rpg battle system and install it first

Link14716

10-31-2002, 10:20 AM

Well, by that error, you haven't ran the install file for the battle system. About your server crashing, I dunno. Something MUST have gone wrong there, but whatever it is, can't put my finger on it.

Ok I install at three different clean forum on my computer and two forums at net and I got all same result:

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.2.8:

Yes I install UBS already at three local forums and two net forums also edit the files following the instuction then use this url admin/misc.php?action=irpg

Still got same error... I ask one of my friend to install it at his net and he got same error too.. But I can use UBS at net without problem. not local server cuz it ll crash the computer, it happen to my friend too.

My friend and I work on this almost five hours and nothing work with hack, UBS as standalone seem ok but not with hack for vbulletin since we kept got this error. We re using 2.2.8 verison and UNIX. Hope Link or someone find the solution for this.. thanks

Edit: I m more than glad to PM or email you my php files and see if I got it wrong or whatever..

Erwin

You are getting an error because the installation file is trying to insert a new member with UserID 1 - but there is obviously a userid 1 on your forums. Link14716 may not have gotten that error if he installed on a new empty database.

The installation file will need to be edited so that the userid is the next userid up from your last userid.

Erwin, Thats what I think but I m not skill enough to look thur others' hack to find out the error. Thanks for confirm my suspicious

heh this reminds me of when i tried making a phpRPG integration hack, errors galore

Link14716

10-31-2002, 07:07 PM

Goldknight, you must have downloaded it before I put the delete query in there......

So, run this query:
DELETE FROM db_users;

Heh. Hence why I put this sucker in BETA. I am guessing that was a smart move. ;)

Great, its work now. So few QQ for you.. excuse my stupidity

1) If anyone register and it automatically insert their username for UBS right?
2) All I do is add the link to UBS at anywhere forum on my host to access the UBS right?
3) Call me stupid if you want.. what does edit VB files do? Does it make any different? It is about your hack that instructed me to edit the vb files..

Also I notice that there are three same templates in admin/templates and rpg/templates... So how can I import these thur Firefly's TBS? TBS refuse to import three due to overwrite others..

It's admin/templates

rpg_db_error
rpg_error
rpg_headinclude

As I said, I wasn't feeling too good. By ALL UBS FILES I mean ALL ROOT UBS FILES. In other words, the admin templates weren't integrated into it, I left it seperate.

The vB Files were purely for users. Misc.php was to move the users over, register was to add the user to UBS, and member.php was to update the user in the UBS. I am trying to make the fact that they use 2 different tables transparent.

And yes. Just add a link anywhere on your site, board, in a post, wherever you want it.

Goldknight

10-31-2002, 08:37 PM

Okkk I guess I ll ask you several days later... I got other weird error.

Thanks for clear up, I ll post the error after several days. Hope you ll feel better

No, I felt bad last night. My shoulder and kness hurt relentlessly, for reasons that I don't know (an it was ard to think). But hey, I'm not feeling bad now. Ask away!

Ok here it is..

Link14716

10-31-2002, 11:31 PM

Oh yeah, that happened with me too. I think it has to do with something in the RPG. To fix it:

Open up header.php (root/UBS):
Find:
if($user_name != Guest && $room != 'lobby') {

REPLACE WITH:
if($user_name != Guest && $room != 'lobby' && $room != 'yes') {

And in index.php (root/UBS):
Find:
if($user_name != Guest && $room != 'lobby'){

REPLACE WITH:
if($user_name != Guest && $room != 'lobby' && $room != 'yes'){

Thats one I couldnt find any in rpg/index.php =\
There are only two like that in index.php are..
if($user_name != Guest){
Nothing after that such as yours above..

But as for header.php I m done edit and change.

Replace the second instance of what you found, then. :)

Goldknight

11-01-2002, 03:08 PM

Link, I follow your instruction, I replace second one..

if($user_name != Guest){
if($userclass==""){
$warning="Warning: You have not chosen a class, your stats are all set to 0!";
}
to
if($user_name != Guest && $room != 'lobby' && $room != 'yes'){
if($userclass==""){
$warning="Warning: You have not chosen a class, your stats are all set to 0!";
}

Then I go to http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/forum/rpg and it still roll out same error:

Link14716, yup it s on first one. Thanks! =D I m now see if I can find any bugs or flaws..

I wonder about images.. seem that there is no upload feature for users to add the images. =\ I seem have to use upload hack to ulitize it for users to use it. Thanks for patience with me :)

Edit: Also images of items and few seem miss too. I have my own items from FF sites, do I have to use these to fill up? Thanks

$fp = fopen ($file, "r+") or die ("error when reading $file in $userroom");
$mess = file($file);

You have to CHMOD all of the .dat files to 777.

And are you sure you are going to admin/admin.php?

Ok I CHMOD all of .dat to 777 and it is still not work. But UBS/chat/admin work fine before I edit VB/UBS to get it work together, chat or adminCP work normal.

Edit: yes I m sure its admin/admin.php. I check the url and yes it is but yet it redirect me to index.php (homepage)
