[Link14716]

It was corrupted because only 700 KB got uploaded, and the ZIP is close to 5 MB. ;)

[mv540]

man-o-man-o-man you werent kidding when you said it was a big file. Im on high speed and its still loading. Ive got it all set up but very slowly loading..so far nothing but a blank screen....

[Jakor Sevel]

you put the link as the gif, you should probably make it .zip so people can download it otherwise it takes it to your forums which look badass by the way. I'm gonna try the game now.

edit: lol, nevermind. everyone else said it already, i was d/l it before posting. bleh.

[Link14716]

I did change it you know. ;)

[Jakor Sevel]

sweet game dude, takes a while to load but worth it. My members will deffinately love this game.

Ok here is the roulette game. Just add it as you did with the other games and use $chipsdenom as the score variable.

i cant get roulette to work, black screan hessitating to load, plasma works awsum!

what are the settings supposed to be at?

[Jakor Sevel]

you know i posted a frogger game a while back, someone wanna try converting it?

[Link14716]

I did try, but it'll take me a while to find what the score varibale is called.

[Jakor Sevel]

alright, just as long as people are trying, lmao. Cause i think a lot of people want frogger

[Link14716]

I've tried so many potential score variables it isn't even funny anymore....

[NuclioN]

Frogger works as far as i can see, it's putting scores into the db :) I test it further and if it works i'll add it to zip. I shall also colorize the frog, it's to dark.

[Jakor Sevel]

i thought the score variable didn't matter

[Jakor Sevel]

nevermind, lol. No wonder I couldn't get XSnake to work ^_^;;

You got it working? THen tell me what you have to change "score" to to get it to work? I've tried at least 15 different possibilities and none have worked..

[NuclioN]

$scoreexp but i am so terrible bad with this game, i can't get 1 *^$* frog to the other side to see if the score is correct. :p

[Jakor Sevel]

nuclion if you can't even check if the score works then the score variable probably won't work, lol. That's what Link is having problems with.

[NuclioN]

Well, it adds 100 defaultscore to the db so there is transmission of something. I shall make this zero so when there is one frog alive it must make a difference. I hate frogs :D

[Jakor Sevel]

oh, well as long as the score variable works then frogger is in business! lmao. *does a dance* Man, proarcade sure is getting active.

[Link14716]

I've tried that, and a whole lot of other variables, but none worked.

Damn, I've hit "Publish" so many times for Frogger that Flash will probably start to +++++ at me and say "Hey! Make up your damned mind!"

[Jakor Sevel]

maybe you put something in the wrong frame?

[Jakor Sevel]

here's a list of possibles to try i guess.

$froggerscore
$frogscore
$froggyscore
$scoreforfroggy
$froggyscores
$frogscores
$froggerscores
$froglessscore
$froggylessscore
$froglessscore
$frogsscore

[Link14716]

no, none of them are possibilities. I checked throughout the game and found a lot of possibilities, none worked.

I put it in frames 51 and 52, which are the correct frames.

[EvilLS1]

PlasmaV2 is nice. Thanks Link.

[NuclioN]

I've scanned the original froggergame with swf scanner and the only reasonable score variable i can find in the swf is $score but is this enough?

[Link14716]

it's not score. Why scan the swf, anyways? You're better of using Flash with the .fla.

[mv540]

you guys seem to have added quite abit of games lately which is awsum, why not put the ones that work on the first page with the rest of them so members dont have to go post by post to see whats working and whats not.. :confused:

just my .02

[Jakor Sevel]

when the creator of proarcade looks then he probably will, lol.

[NuclioN]

$scoreex is the next test, i'll think this is it (for now) :(

Good point, I guess. ;)

[Jakor Sevel]

it's not much but i just found this pinball game and it's a little slow with the flippers but once you get the hang of em it's pretty tight. someone convert this! shouldn't be too hard either!

[Link14716]

I tried converting that one too, but when I finally got it in the right frame, it wanted to redirect to the score page so many times (probably infinite) that I had to hit refresh just to get out of it.

[Jakor Sevel]

:( so that's no good? you sure? why would it keep going to the score page?

[Link14716]

I have no idea. It didn't do that loacally.

[corsacrazy]

send me frogger .SWF (not flash source file) and i can tell u wot the variable for the score is no problem ;)

[Jakor Sevel]

here's the swf

[.:.NetStartz.:.]

So basically - you can convert any flash game to work with this?

[corsacrazy]

cheers !

[NuclioN]

Hm..to speed up the amount of playable games for this it would be better if someone give the guidelines to modify a game, for example the scorevariabele and other things that are relevant to let games work in VB arcade. ;)

Not any flash game - only games that are public domain - otherwise you breach copyright.

[Sanni]

heya,

love the games guys awesome work and thank you for making them available to us :)

i do have one question though, some of my users are getting the following screen/error in Xtreme snake:


A data mismatch has been discovered between the game and the arcade, normally as the result of a cheating attempt. This attempt has been logged, and the score invalidated. If you feel that you are receiving this message in error, please contact the system administrator.


any ideas on what might be causing this?

thanks again :)

[Jakor Sevel]

if they use the back button, or if they click "play again" when it asks and stuff they'll get that. Also if you click the link to play the game twice it'll do that. So only click the links ONCE, no matter what. Even if it looks like it's not gonna load. If it's deffinately not loading, click again and make it work then just lose on purpose and try again cause it'll most likely give you that error.

At least these are ways I've learned to counter this thing.

[Shad]

For anyone that is interested, attached is a modified .swf of tetris that adds a mute function. Once you click start, just hit M and that music is history.

[Kars10]

Thanks Shad!!
That helps a lot! :)

I am having a few compaints from users about Breakout being rather buggy after scoring around 10,000 points.

Attached is a working version of Asteroids.

@ Sabreth, insert the games without a query. Do it manually ;)
U can use the codes from a other game. All u need to change is the $scorevalue, name, filename.

Try it and it works buddy.

[auz1111]

why me? My arcade was working fine until I tried to install another game today. Now when i press the add games or modify games button in the ACP it says: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: dotableheader() in /home/domains/mydomain.com/user/htdocs/admin/proarcadeadmin.php on line 30

I know i installed some new hacks which may have messed up some of the lines. Does anyone know what this is referring to? I have very little PHP knowledge. I never made changes to proarcadeadmin.php

[Kars10]

@Auz1111, have you changed something in the admin/proarcadeadmin.php or in admin/functions.php? :confused:

[auz1111]

just edited my post no i didn't change anything in proarcadeadmin.php, but i did change some things in functions.php

[Kars10]

@ Auz1111, do u make a backup of your old functions.php??
If yes, backup your hacked one and upload the old on.
Than test your proarcadeadmin. ;)

[auz1111]

yes!! I fixed it. my adminfunctions.php was missing the code from the hack. I guess I erased it doing another hack. I hope I haven't spoke to soon. going to try adding a game now.

thanks for the look out Kars10 :)

It will be fixed in the next version of the arcade, but you can fix it by not using the $vbchampicon and just using the $vbchamtext by itself. If you want the icon just change the champion text so that it has an HTML img src link to the icon image on your web server.

Many thanks. This confused me for a while. Make sure the graphics are in GIF format, as they seem to disappear if in BMP format.

[dstruct2k]

BMP format images aren't the best for the web anyways... You'd be a lot better off using GIFs for everything... You don't lose a lot of quality, you have 256 colors to work with, and they usually are under 1 or 2kb, as long as they aren't animated.

BMPs have a tendancy to not show up in some browsers... I think this is intentional, because even a 50px by 50px BMP can be well over 5kb, when if you save that same image as a GIF, it is only 1 or 2kb, and looks virtually identical. Browsers are usually coded to be as fast and efficient as possible, so some browsers may just decide to not show BMPs at all.

[Mr L]

Cheers.

All working now... :)

[Osmosis]

Hi all. Just wanted to chirp up and say nice work on the games. I've put several of them on my forums an kept the ones my users are enjoying.... Hexxagon is by far the favorite and there are some heated competitions going on for that one.

Anyway, I am a flash designer by trade, and I will convert and post any game you can give me the source files for... provided its a game that I will also be using, or if I have some spare time.

[auz1111]

I am still having trouble getting the scores for hexxagon to record. Is there anyway you guys could inform me with your exact variables and HTML code. I used the code from post #165 and am using score variable $hexxagonscore, but it is not working.

[Mr L]

Is Frogger actually working?

I've seen some comments of people looking at it, but no confirmed yes or no, it's all ok?

[Tigga]

Thanks to everyone who have modified the new games. I just added 6 new ones to my site earlier and my users are loving them. It's so funny to see everyone competing just to have a little crown by their name. ;)

The score variable is $hexxagonscore and the hash offset is (as always) 5.

Where the smiley is in the code, it should be fullcolon D

My pleasure!

As a sidenote here, and I"m not sure how this will be taken by you all, but I've managed to create a wrapper for an SWF file that works on my forums arcade. I've successfully taken an swf from the web, wrapped it, and made the scores submit to the arcade.

Now, I am not posting it here for 2 reasons. First of all, this is essentially a way to pirate copyrighted games (if they arent copyright, they have source code), and I dont want to be the one to spearhead this pirate ship. Secondly, I've only used this wrapper on one game so far (Pedestrian Killer (http://www.flashradium.com/Htmdocs/Games/game.cfm?GID=171&P=PK)), and it certainly doesnt work perfectly... i.e. the game has a built in high scores table that essentially appears and then the game submits the players score to the arcade.

BUT, hopefully thats incentive for you all to learn a bit more about flash :) I certainly hope a post like this doesnt get me banned from these boards, and if it will please let me know ahead of time so I can delete this post.

Warning: If you reached this page via your browser's "Back" button, you must refresh this

and it works now. Not sure why i couldnt get it working via the admin cp (had no problems with simon says).

one thing that did throw me is that it doesnt add the score unless you fill in/complete the entire board. I sat there testing it for ages trying to figure out why my score wasnt being added :speechless:


anyway, i hope the above helps anyone else who was having simular problems :)


i get this error


MySQL said:


You have an error in your SQL syntax near '\'hexxagonFinal\', \'Hexxagon\', \'Try to get the most stones.\', \'hexxagonFina' at line 1


Run SQL query/queries on database - i go through there....

[Osmosis]

I dont know why you'd want to send that SQL query when you can add the game thru the admin CP no problem.

[The Wedge]

the only reason why i did the SQL query like that is because when i tried to go through the admin CP the same stuff was happening....

[Osmosis]

what version is your board?

[Mickie D]

thanks for all the new games ... it really looks like nice list of games now :)

[powelly]

Hiya guys :)
Anyone know where Donkey Kong is lurking for the arcade? I've seen it on a couple of vbProArcade sites, but not anywhere in the threads :(

[futureal]

I am aware of at least a few sites out there that have modified games and are not giving them out to people. It's possible that one or more of the games you guys are looking for and have seen fall into that category.

I need to update the first post in this thread to reflect the newer games that have been added to the arcade.

[futureal]

First post has been updated, with links to all known games in this thread.

Enjoy!

[The Wedge]

im running version 2.2.9.. i think...

[Jakor Sevel]

if anyone knows of sites with other proarcade games they'd like out (such as donkey kong), post links to them and maybe one of us can convince them to release it.

most those sites are for wbb2, and the site with vB seems to have the games only there, and not actually working with proarcade. I think the wbb2 games are configured differently.

If this is the case, perhaps there is reason to offer duel support in VB Arcade?

I played with this , very cool stuff ...

I have had endless problems with DB's through the history of VB with imbeded images u/l ed to the SQL DB. Is there a fix to make the images show up useing a link to a file on the server vs. uploading the image into the DB ?

just copy and paste the html from any of the games for asteroids.

X- BALL

It does not go to the correct page when a game ends. goes to: http://proarcade.php/ is there a way to fix this?

[DigitalDesktops]

i updated the zip. reupload xball.swf

[drumsy]

I'm having a problem with new games. The initial five released work wonderfully and the thumbnail images display properly but the two I've installed lately, Simon Says and Hexagon, are displaying the thumbnails very poorly. Colors are mixed up and the image is junky. What could be the problem? I can't manually add the image because I get an error having to do with openbase_dir or something like that. We also are running in safe mode.

Thank you for X-Ball.

My forum is about Retro gaming, consoles and old computer chat. This is just the kind of game that my members will love.

Cheers.

[dstruct2k]

X-Ball is ok... But to me, it looks like a version of Breakthru that was never completed. I think I'll leave this one alone... Some of my members have been requesting games like Pong and Centepede... Anyone wanna try to make either of these compatable? I'd really apreciate it.

Oh, and a modified version of Hexxagon would be nice, where if you win, you keep playing games against the computer until you lose. So if I beat the computer, I get to play another game, and another, until my winning streak is put to an end. Then, your total score would get sent to the scoreboard. I'll take a look at the FLA file later and see if I can make that change.

[Mr L]

Two games I'd like to see ported for it, the first is Monster!...

...attached is the FLA and SWF file from Flash Kit download site.

[Mr L]

The second is Star Wars Shooter...

Any news on frogger and Donkey kong or other cool games like that?

A site I go to has frogger in their arcade but not a high score thingy for it....how would i do that if it's not possible to have a high score.

Any help would be good 8-)

Hi,
I'm having my windows users say that they are getting a blank white playing screen instead of the game once they click on the link to play asteroids. It's my first time adding a game, does anyone know what I may have done wrong?
On macs it loads and you can play asteroids no problem (of course they have other redirect issues when any game ends). But I thought it was weird that its just not showing up for PC users.

It opens with Flash MX ok. Unfortunatly I don't have the skillset to do the work on the high score stuff. :(

Hi Digital,
I noticed people are playing now without a hitch...I had copy and pasted some html code from one of these old posts and I believe it was one of the few chunks of html code that was a bit different...I deleted it and added html code from one of my other games and it seemed fix it. It was weird because it loaded for mac users though :confused:
oh well, all's better. thank you for replying :)

someone add pong :D

[NuclioN]

The amount of games to share for the arcade would improve dramaticly if someone adds a step by step tutorial on how to search the scorevariable and how to implement the final code.
I saw that the code is pretty regular in all the games.

Also, i see that it's a problem for a couple of people to share their new games. That can create a 'if you don't share, i will not share' environment.

[drumsy]

Can we make a request that when someone releases a new game, they also include the MySQL query to run, since some people can't manually install the games due to safe mode being on and image issues?

Either you know how to modify flash well or you don't. I personally don't know how to modify flash, but my buddy that does knew instantly what the directions for modifying games meant.

you would have to add:

scorevariable = score;
action = "gameover";
game = gamename;
score_loc = location + "/proarcade.php";

// this needs to match the Admin CP value

some where on the Action Layer. but you need to find the score variable first. i'm also working on modifying frogger, but so far no luck.

I have attempted Kill Kenny, however, it redirected to /proarcade.php instead of /forums/proarcade.php and when I got it to redirect properly, it gave me an "Invalid Game Specified" error.

make sure you don't change this bit of code:

// set up vars to return
vpaver = "100B2";
scorevariable = score;
action = "gameover";
game = gamename;
score_loc = location + "/proarcade.php";

great job dstruct2k! :D
Has anyone found a hexxagon.fla yet?

[auz1111]

I have been unable to fix the problem for about two weeks now. I left a post in the arcade thread, but got no reply.

After finishing any game instead of allowing me to enter in a comment it goe to this page: http://proarcade.php/ which of course doesn't exist. Does anybody have a suggestion that may lead me in the right direction. I haven't altered proarcade.php in any way.

[DigitalDesktops]

this has happened to me. attach the .fla to your post and i'll take a look at it. is this happening to every game?

[auz1111]

yes it is happening to every game and just started out the blue. That's why i don't think it's a problem with the .fla . I never republished any games in flash. I am lost. :(

[DigitalDesktops]

did you use run a query to create the games or used the admin CP?

[auz1111]

I used the admin CP each time. I was running it and adding games fine. then this just popped up. I thought maybe another hack i added changed something, but I have never tampered with proarcade.php or the templates.

[DigitalDesktops]

double check the queries in the arcadegames table, make sure they're correct.

okay, once you login into your database find arcadegames on the left side menu. then click on the tab that says Browse.
All of your games should be listed here. make sure all the codes is correct. my guess is somethings wrong with the .swf, try reuploading the .swf files again.

This just isn't true... See that game I released a page back? That was the first time I had ever even seen the inside of a Flash game. But it took me about 5 minutes to make it work. Trust me, it's not hard. If someone can direct me towards more good FLA files, I'll modify them! :D

I just don't know the scorevariable for Pong. The original $playerScore isn't working for me.

You need to beat the computer to actually score. :) It's not that easy. You can try to reduce the maximum points to win, but still hard. :) I haven't beaten the computer yet...

I'm having a problem with new games. The initial five released work wonderfully and the thumbnail images display properly but the two I've installed lately, Simon Says and Hexagon, are displaying the thumbnails very poorly. Colors are mixed up and the image is junky. What could be the problem? I can't manually add the image because I get an error having to do with openbase_dir or something like that. We also are running in safe mode.


Simon Says and Hexagon still don't work but the Tie Fighter icon does. Can anyone still help me with this?

[futureal]

Hi everybody,

Thanks for all the new games. You guys are the ones making this hack awesome! I have updated the first post in the thread with the links to all of the new games I've seen.

Regarding optimization:

Because of the way the "mini scoreboards" work on the main page, when more games are added you are seeing tons and tons of queries. I have a new version of the hack ready (though I haven't done the install instructions yet) that fixes a few minor bugs and some other annoyances.

After seeing how many games are available, I think it's time to re-think how the mini-boards are done. Instead of querying on a per-game basis, I think I will see if I can pull everything on one or two massive queries and then sort the information into arrays via PHP. With any luck, there will be a demo of this up on one of my sites soon that I can point you to.

Thanks for the feedback!

[The Wedge]

ill try and do some editing to the flash files of Ping Pong, but i'm not that good, so i might send it to my uncle, anyway, ill try and do this later tonitei cant believe i edited em!!!

[Mr L]

I don't know how one goes about this, but how is a hack awarded a Hack Of The Month prize?

This hack (I know this thread is part and parcel of a main hack and I am not talking directly about the individual games) has absolutely transformed my board.

I can put my hands up and say this is clearly the best addon that I have done for vBulletin. My board is about Retrogaming as the signature says and some of these games that have come through with the help of this hack have helped it no ends.

Cheers futureal for the best vBulletin addition yet and allowing one that is also easially expandable with the modification of FLA files.

I agree has to be one of the greatest if not the greatest

Regarding optimization:

Because of the way the "mini scoreboards" work on the main page, when more games are added you are seeing tons and tons of queries.


Futureal,
So its just the mini scoreboards that are causing all the extra queries? And if so, couldn't they be easily removed?

I'd be willing to ditch the mini scoreboards in order to cut down the number of queries so that I can add more games. If members want to see all the scores they can click on the link to view the big scoreboards.

[Erwin]

I've optmized my ProArcade so it only has 16 queries, from the original 83 queries.

I did this by removing all score board information, mini scoreboard, high score etc. from the Arcade main page, and just kept the game name and description, and links to the high scores.

No matter how many games you add, the queries should remain at 16, as it takes only ONE query to get the name and description.

If anyone wants to know how to do this, I can gladly show them. But otherwise, ask futureal. ;)

[EvilLS1]

Erwin,
I would like to remove the mini scoreboards, but I want to keep the top score, user score, etc in the main table.. How many queries can I eliminate by removing just the mini scorebaords? I'm at work right now and don't have access to any of the files or else I'd look myself.

With 16 games, if you just remove the Mini Scoreboards, you go down from 83 queries to 65 queries only. I didn't think it was enough.

This is because it takes a lot of queries to find out the user's own highscore, what rank he or she is at, how many users have played it, the overall high score, is he the high scorer etc.

[EvilLS1]

Thanks Erwin. Hmm.. In that case I think I'd be better off to remove everything that you removed.

[Erwin]

When you are down to the minimum 16 queries, no matter how many games you add, it should still stay at 16. :) Because all you're left is the 1 query to get the name and description.

[gwhooooey]

Anyone done donkey kong yet?

Or how about that Kill Kenny southpark game I linked to earlier on page 25/26 or whatever it was. Can anyone do them?

Still no luck on a frogger score board either I take it, ah well....kepp up the good work guys, much appreciated

[Kars10]

Ok, i have deleted everything Erwin says (thanks Erwin) and get 16 Querys (my proarcade.php attached). :)

Kars

[Erwin]

Exactly, Kars. :) For those who want to do this, don't forget to edit the templates:

vbproarcade_arcade - remove the $arcadebit table
remove the table headers columns for High score etc. just leave the name and description

vbproarcade_arcadebit - remove all extra columns except name and description.

Done. :)

[Mickie D]

Hi guys,
I just got a request for Centipede. Has anyone ran across this one anywhere?
p.s thank you for Pong and Asteroids! They are loving it.

i got a new pong game, but im not sure how to make it faster, its wayyy to slow and if there is a way to make it faster somebody post and leave there AIM so i can talk to em, i would post it, but i'd rather have somebody help me so i can learn for furture posts!!

For the query drop I'd rather get rid of those mini-scoreboards underneath than remove columns from the main table on the proarcade homepage. Is deleting those columns really that much more of an advantage?

Kars You'll always have this problem if you are running your own server. I am running an Apache/1.3.27 Server on Windows XP Pro and I have never been able to play games from my own computer. Luckily there's another computer on the home network that I can play from, but some people might just be SOL if this is their setup.

If you are your own server, you cannot play games and have their scores saved! The best way around this is to get someone else to test the games for you, and see if the scores show up.

I've already posted this, Zelda-King. READ THE THREAD.

But just for you, I'll post it again. Dropping the mini-scoreboards only reduce the queries for me from 83 to 65 - around 1 query per game - the savings is minimal. The bulk of the queries come from calculating the high score, your high score, your rank, number of players who played if for EACH game, hence the high queries.

[Erwin]

Games that are Buggy

1. X-ball

Can only go up to level 10 and max high score at 8,180 - then the ball justs hangs - very annoying. :)

2. Pong

Impossible to beat the computer - he let's you win one each time you lose one - so he is always 1 up to you. Was this an April Fools prank???

Anyway, just informing people. Otherwise, good work, all doing the Flash integration.

I get this problem with Pinball:

A data mismatch has been discovered between the game and the arcade, normally as the result of a cheating attempt. This attempt has been logged, and the score invalidated. If you feel that you are receiving this message in error, please contact the system administrator.

[Erwin]

It probably IS the MD5 hash offset that's the problem...

The instructions in Admin CP say this:

Game Hash Offset
Offset (between 0 and 31) to apply to the MD5 security check -- MUST MATCH the value in the game's FLA file, if unsure do not modify

What is it in the Pinball FLA?

[DigitalDesktops]

i'm trying to modify the pinball game i get this error:

vbProArcade Error: Invalid game name specified (todo: put something pretty here later)

heres the code i used:

// set up vars to return
vpaver = "100B2";
text = score;
action = "gameover";
game = gamename;
score_loc = location + "proarcade.php";

// this needs to match the Admin CP value
// and should be between 0 and 31
hashoffset = 5;

// do security shuffle to return newhash
subhash1 = gamehash.substr(0,hashoffset);
subhash2 = gamehash.substr(hashoffset);
newhash = subhash2.concat(subhash1);

// redirect back to vbProArcade
getURL (score_loc, "_self", "POST");

anyone know why its doing this?

the came is like collasp, aka called Jewels.

this is much like bejeweled

needs to be edited for vbproarcade :)

My server is down right now so I have no way to test this. So give it a try and let me know if it works:

Game identifier: jewels

Game Hash Offset: 5

Just use the HTML from one of the other games.. You might have to adjust the hight and width a little.

Edit: file removed.. not working.

Thanks for your help EvilLS1,

that was fast, I think it works, I posted it on my site, the only problem, is I don't know how to die in the game.

Need to test the score and find If there was a way to add a visual timer to the game that would help end the game. Or possibly 3 tries to match a jewel set before it's game over. I don't know what coding would be needed in the actions for this.

I updated the flash options to match default vbulletin layout and the size of the jewel screen better..

When there are no more possible moves it will say "game over" and forward you to submit the score (tried this on my PC and it works).. I just haven't tested it in the arcade to see if its actually submitting the score.

grins I'll keep trying, one of the things I want to do is edit the sounds in the game, from "excellent" to something a bit more fitting ;) oh and I updated your account so your registered :)

I managed to get to level 9, I think I ran out of jewels, the game didn't track the score on the site. although it did bring up a score table. If that helps.

I just got "game over" and it doesnt seem to work. I'll tinker with it some more when my server is up again so that I can test it.
