vBWar 3.0 for vBulletin 3.0

[Dark_Wizard]

I thought I would move this over to the appropriate forum for discussions about the progress of my hack. I would also like everyone to post your comments/suggestions here as well and not in the vbWar 2.2 thread.

Currently the hack is coming along nicely and still needs alot of work. The admin piece is almost complete (approx. 70%). I am rewriting everything for the most part and redoing the Access Permissions differently with this version as well as member management.

I have posted some screen shots of the current admin piece and the vbWar options as well. Enjoy!

[corsacrazy]

just for those unfamilliar with the vb war concept is it possible to provide a demp#o or a brief description.. is it like the vb battle hack ?

[FireWall]

looks very nice :)

This is a Clan Management System in that you can manage your members, wars/matches/scrims along with the results, join apps, challenge requests, servers and their stats and clan news.

This was based off of vWar which can be seen here (http://www.vwar.de).

[Mikal]

Ohh yeah, looks great!! :D

[|oR|Greg]

ETA? As in.. Estimated... a month?

[Dark_Wizard]

ETA? As in.. Estimated... a month?

For the first beta? No...hopefully sometime next week, not sure when though as I have alot to do still....

[danbc]

Well, my clan has some problems mainly due to planning stuff...

We got

1. Alpha team, playing ladder games
2. Bravo team, playing co-op tournements
3. Azzcup, a tournement we?re hosting ourselves
4. A ladder site
5. Generel stuff...

So we have a massive problem planning stuff, getting reminders, scheduling etc etc... So some advanced planning option would be cool, since we?re about to start another thing, bringing yet more probs scheduling and planing...

What can I say, we?re a busy clan :D


Oh yeah!

An option to specify the different gametypes for the games would be cool aswell...

Other than that, I think the sg?s looks very promising.. Good work!

The Divisions part of the hack should help you in that part if not what else could I add?

[danbc]

Can You make a sg of the division options, then I?ll try and make some suggestions other might find usefull aswell...

If my clan should move from PHPBB+PHPNuke to VB, wich we?re hoping to be able to do, since VB is much more configurable than PHPBB, we need the following options...

VbWar -Since we use a "PHPBB version", wich are essential to us.
Gameserver list - Possibility to list our publicly available gameservers.
Teamspeakserver list -Publicly available comms servers.

And since You allready working on the two first, I?m pretty sure, that nomatter what, I?ll be a happy puppy :)

That?s basicly what a clan of our size needs, besides the planning options and a load of sponsors :D

You can take a look here http://www.badazz-danes.dk, to see our current site, I think You?ll get an idea without having to register.

[Rushty]

wish list:
Team Speak Servers
Game Servers
Team selection from those signed up and facility to email team that has been chosen.
Option for regular email sent to members listing up and coming matchs + an optiojn to signup for these matchs from the email (via a link)
Email reminder option so that members can choosen to have a reminder email sent to them on the day of a match they have been selected to play.
Options to define roles of members e.g War Arranger, Clan Leader and display them on a per game/clan basis so that each game/clan has seperate leaders etc.
All events displayed int the Calendar, but only showing the events for games that the member plays.

thats for starter, im sure once i have had a good think could come up with a lot more.

* Team Speak Servers (Included).
* Game Servers (Included).
* Team selection (Included).
* Option for regular email (Included) (but no option to join a mailing list...this would be automatic).
* Will think about this one as it would require a cron job.
* Options to define roles of members (Included)
* This would require extra coding above what I have thus far but I will consider it for a future version.

[Mikal]

I would like to see when people from your clan signs up for a match or signs off, that the clan leader is recieving a mail about it. :)

[danbc]

Mikal:

Yeah, cool suggestion!

Dark Wizard:

I know this might be asking for too much, but I?m gonna ask anyways ;)

How about a feature that enables You when a match has been played, for the teamleader to write some info about for each members performance in the game? Only viewable for the clan offcause... We use that a lot, to find out where a member needs to train and which maps that causes problems etc etc...

Otherwise I?m a happy puppy :)


How much do You want for this hack btw?

[Dark_Wizard]

Ugh....let me get through what I have now and look at this in a future version....

Nothing but donations are always accepted... ;)

[|oR|Greg]

Ventrilo integration would be nice.

[Wolfy.2k]

hey mate this hack looks awesome cant wait for it to be released, can u do me a favour and put Delta Force Black Hawk Down as a game on there too please, i didn't see it in the screenshots.

Working on that as well and will try to get it in the first release.

[Wolfy.2k]

hey DK, will this be like an update, because my squad has many many matches in our records, and once i have put em all in (jus installed vbwar 2.2) will i need to do the same wen we go up to vb3 wit the vbwar?

This will be both an update from vbWar 2.2 and a full install of vbWar 3.0, you will not lose any data. :rolleyes:

[Wolfy.2k]

hey dw - i had an idea, atm wen the matches are posted in a forum, it is our match forum, do u reckon there could be a way once the match is complete for them to be automatically moved to a different forum, i.e. we have a forum where people sign up, and a subforum called "Previous matches" where we move em after the match.

hope u like this idea

hey mate any update on vbwar, will it be out soon :P plz!!

[[t4e]Kicks]

nice progress Dark, can't wait to see it in action

[Natch]

We (us @ mobileforces.org) would love to see Mobile Forces as a Game Option ... would probably be trivial as it's a modified UT1 engine - but if you could add this it would save me screwing up your code to add it for our vBWar ...

Regardless, I'm very much looking forward to this being comple and ready to play with - as are my clans of lunatics :)

[Dark_Wizard]

[Mikal]

That's a lot of games! :D
Well its sure is sufficient for my clan ;)

[Dark_Wizard]

That's a lot of games! :D


Agreed...what I'm trying to do is come up with a couple of templates to work with all of them otherwise this would take quite awhile to complete if I had to do them for each game.

[13th_Disciple]

this particular hack is the main reason i am moving to vb3.. i am looking forward to this hack with a lot of anticipation.. Dark Wizard you have done a great job with what I have seen so far.. very impressed..

i know this is OT for the topic, but have you made any progress on your pafiledb hack? i think i saw somewhere that you were gonna do something like that.. anyway, not the place for it.. if you hang in irc anywhere, tell me where and i will come to you..

anyway, really looking forward to the release of vbwar for vb3..

edit--

i forgot to ask, under certain games, for instance UT2003, will mod support be there for the many mods that are created for the varying games? or will we be able to add additional game types under each particular game?

UT2003
|_DeathBall
|_SAS
|_Frag.Ops

something like that? that way clans aren't limited specifically to choosing UT2003 as the game.. i noticed in your screen shots that there was a spot for selecting game type.. just wasn't sure if there would be a way for adding support for custom mods and not just the games built-in game types..

[Dark_Wizard]

This is taking longer than expected. I am rewriting this from scratch and changing all the vbwar functions. Please expect a few more weeks before this goes to a beta stage. Sorry for the delay but it will be worth it!

[Mikal]

That's fine! Can't wait though ;)

[KuraFire]

This is taking longer than expected. I am rewriting this from scratch and changing all the vbwar functions. Please expect a few more weeks before this goes to a beta stage. Sorry for the delay but it will be worth it!
Are you going to make that beta release an HTL-release ? :)

[Dark_Wizard]

Are you going to make that beta release an HTL-release ? :)

ROFLMAO....sure, why not.

[KuraFire]

ROFLMAO....sure, why not.
Yay :) HTL-hacks are just so much easier to make AND use. :)

[Dark_Wizard]

Ok...vbWar is coming along nicely and here is a demo (http://www.dpclan.us/test/war.php) but without the data....

[danbc]

Oh man, I can?t wait to play with that, looks VERY nice :)

[Mikal]

VERY NICE!!......gimme gimme ;)
Looking forward to it!

[Natch]

Thanks heaps - afaik there is not much different - I used your olde server-stats hack for MoFo servers, so it should translate across ok - but when I hacked in the facility for Mobile Forces servers, I think I messed up some stuff - so I'd really appreciate your doing this one :)

[iggy123]

This is taking longer than expected. I am rewriting this from scratch and changing all the vbwar functions. Please expect a few more weeks before this goes to a beta stage. Sorry for the delay but it will be worth it!

That's fine - you got till the end of feb, or I send my g/f around.. :devious:

Seriously take your time we are all greatful for the amount of time and effort you are spending on this.

[danbc]

Yeah, totally!

I?ve been waiting for a solution like this for Vb for a while now, it won?t hurt me to wait a little longer and end up with a butwhooping endproduct :D


OT sidequestion:

You wouldn?t by any chance, in Your work of extracting data from Ghost Recon for the serverlist, have stumbled into a way to log connected client names toghether with their IP?s would You?

(A serious lack in Ghost Recon :( )

[Wolfy.2k]

SUPERSWEET DK cant wait!

[Dark_Wizard]

I have now added some older data so you can see how it's coming...check out the demo (http://www.dpclan.us/test/war.php).

I am very happy with the progress of this hack, with the new template conditionals and vb backend this hack is going to blow away my vbWar 2.2 version...

If there is anyone that would like to translate the vb phrases to another language please PM me.

Sorry this is taking so long as I stated before but there was alot to do including code optimization, reduced queries and alot more functionality.

[danbc]

It looks really good DW, very nice work!

[Dark_Wizard]

It looks really good DW, very nice work!

Thank you....

[Wolfy.2k]

any ideas on a date for release mate?

[Dark_Wizard]

any ideas on a date for release mate?

A beta will be here soon...thats all I can say at this time. Right now I have close to 100 hours on this hack.....it's been rewritten hence the time involved.

[TheAnt]

DW- I'm absolutley amazed with this hack.

I tried it out on 2.3.3 right when I got my vB license and I thought it was incredible.

Thank you! Wait till you see Version 3.0.....

[Dark_Wizard]

Update....

I have reduced the queries by a significant amount and now the war.php page with all options turned on will only produce 14 queries irregardless of how many wars are displayed.

Still chugging along.....will post updates as they are available.

[Dark_Wizard]

I have revamped the "Join Us" application and it's as follows:


* Turn off the application if your clan is no longer accepting new people.
* Allow users to be registered first with the forums to be able to fill out the app or allow unregistered users to fill out the app without having to register in the forums first. This is selectable in the vbWar Options.
* Updates the user table with info not applied during the normal forum registration process if you select users having to reg on the forums first.


Any other suggestions for this form before I check off that it's done?

Like the new feature! :) But I can't find anything else I wanted done

[Dark_Wizard]

Like the new feature! :) But I can't find anything else I wanted done

Agreed...I added as much functionality as I could without bloating it...as I stated before this version will blow the doors off of any prior version including the original vwar from which this was based.

If anyone has any other features they want in other areas please keep the posts coming...thx!

Here's a quick description of added/updated features:

* The war page will support one clan or multiple clans.
* War forum posting when adding a war by adding a forumid in the vbWar Options (in a future version this will support multiple forums so if you want to have one for matches, one for scrims etc...).
* Calendar posting when adding a war by adding a calendarid in the vbWar Options (vb3.0 allows for multiple calendars).
* Ability to turn off all apps ("Join Us" and "Challenge Us") in the vbWar Options.
* Reoccuring events when setting up wars (planned for future version).
* News Page with unlimited categories and category pics which can also be uploaded via the vbWar Admincp, this will not post to the forums as I want to keep it seperate.
* Game Server Stats
* TeamSpeak Server Stats
* Ventrillo Server Stats
* Option to email all members of a clan when a war is added.
* Optimized code to significantly reduce queries.

[Wolfy.2k]

sounds great dude - i like the switching join us/challenge on or off.

[Dark_Wizard]

With the soon to be released vbWar 3.0 Beta I have setup my site with KirbyDE's bug tracking hack and added some forums. Please stop by and register at www.dpclan.us/forums if your one of the interested people who want to beta test.

Dark,
I have signed up on your forums - (matt)- and would like to apply to beta test.

On behalf of my clan, I offer my humble services in beta testing ;)

* Natch also :) mobileforces.org would happily test it for ya :)

[13th_Disciple]

the only question i have.. after installing vbindex and seeing that it specifically states that if you have vbwar from dark wizard installed don't install vbindex.. which means you have to use one or the other..

so will there be integration or is this going to be somewhat of a standalone style front-end hack?

Thanks to NTLDR there will be an integration of the vbWar News with vbIndex. He is allowing me to integrate it into vbindex so it will provide a more complete solution.

[13th_Disciple]

excellent.. i am very happy to hear that.. this is one of the hacks i am most interested in and would be glad to do what i can to further its development and growth..

[NTLDR]

13th_Disciple, the text in the options means don't enable the vbWar Option unless you have it installed ;)

[Natch]

13th_Disciple, the text in the options means don't enable the vbWar Option unless you have it installed ;)
Apart from vBIndex's excellent code, vbWar is one of the main reasons why I haven't even looked @ the other one :) great work both of you :D

[Dark_Wizard]

excellent.. i am very happy to hear that.. this is one of the hacks i am most interested in and would be glad to do what i can to further its development and growth..

You have any PHP coding experience? I'm looking to add anyone who is interested to my team. My future goal is to make this a complete solution with integrated Links, Downloads and Review system....

[Natch]

I'd be very interested in being involved in development ... PM me if you want a mad Aussie with timezone issues on your team :) :)

[13th_Disciple]

minimal experience.. but that hasn't stopped me yet.. Natch would be the man to seek for that job, imo.. i would be willing to help, but timeline/ time to learn, probably isn't in step with your timeline, and believe me, slowing this particular hack down is not what i wanna be known for around here..

NTLDR - oh ok.. you need to make that a bit clearer.. as i remember, it mentioned or was worded to the effect that if you have one you can't have the other.. unless i just misread or was reading too fast..

[Dark_Wizard]

I'd be very interested in being involved in development ... PM me if you want a mad Aussie with timezone issues on your team :) :)

Roflmao....contact me via PM on my site...we will get together.

[Gary King]

Sounds good I can't wait to see this ;)

[Gary King]

I sent you a PM on your forums too, I'd like to beta-test :)

I sent you a PM on your forums too, I'd like to beta-test :)

I replied to your PM....please check it. Thx!

[Dark_Wizard]

I'm also looking for one more member for the dev team but you must have excellent PHP skills as this hack is very involved and will contain alot of newly added features. If you have what it takes and want to be a part of the team then please apply on my site. Thx!

Note: Everyone on the Dev Team will receive credit....

[Dark_Wizard]

Ok...I have decided to limit this to one other dev and I have chosen Gary W...so as it stands right now we are the only 2 core developers for this project.

I would like to thank all those that have asked to be a part of the team. This hack is rather large and would get too confusing with too many members.

Thanks to Gary W for joining the team!

[13th_Disciple]

so what kind of time estimate can we anticipate from now? a month, a couple weeks? any rough idea?

[Gary King]

Well of course you don't want us to rush it, and we wouldn't want to either, so we can't say TOO much right now :) But hopefully with two of us working on this now, then the ETA will be two times closer ;)

[13th_Disciple]

no, i don't want anything rushed.. nor am i asking for a completion date.. i am just asking on a rough estimate in weeks/ months.. i was asking based on curiousity.. my bad..

[Gary King]

Sorry if you took that personally :) (I thought no one would what with the blatant use of smilies :p) Anyways we just started working together yesterday really, so we are just getting things together; but once the ball gets rolling, me personally, I hope it'll come out within maybe 1-2 months :) I'm not sure what he thinks, and I'm probably way off anyways since I don't completely know what yet needs to be completed :)

[Dark_Wizard]

I am trying to add as much functionality to this as possible so any ETA right now wouldn't be fair to myself, Gary or the people who want to install this hack if we cannot meet the date.

One thing everyone has to understand...this is a rather large script/hack and making the changes to work with vb3.x and to remove what few bugs existed in version 2.2 is quite a task. I have optimized alot of the queries and reduced them to the lowest possible without taking away from the functionality. ALso some of the code has been streamlined and changed to accept the new changes that I wanted.

Also with Gary now on the team I can concentrate more on the "Server Stats" piece and provide support for over 30 games....I have other plans as well for the 3.x versions and when it's done it will be the best Clan Management type script out there.

I will promise though that this will be well worth the wait, if you liked vbWar 2.2 then you'll love this one!

[Dark_Wizard]

Things are coming along quite nicely....I have started working on the server stats piece and I'm about 60% done. You can see some of it working on my site but it won't display the data yet only the server listings.

[Mikal]

Nice! it's looking really good :)

[Dark_Wizard]

Nice! it's looking really good :)

Whats tough now is that the Query Script supports 60 games....

[Mikal]

Yeah I can well imagine that

[Dark_Wizard]

Even though there are 60 games supported there are only 16 total game engines....this script turned out bigger than originally anticipated. :rolleyes:

[Gary King]

[DS MrSinister]

this hack sounds sweet.. I will be looking for this when its out.. I am working on my clans portal right now. really could use this hack.. Good Job Guys.

[danbc]

Oh man oh man, I?m allmost getting wet dreams at night about this hack :D

[Dark_Wizard]

But it'll be the best out there once it's released ;)

Yes it will be but don't let them know what we are planning...let's surprise them. ;)

[Gary King]

Of course not :D

[Lethal]

Most games have different maps for each game type, so I was wondering if in the new version when you are adding a map will you be able to add a map to a game and then select the game type it will be available for. So, when someone challenges your clan, they can select the game they want to challenge you in, then select the game type (like TDM) and then from there it will have all the TDM maps to choose from instead of all the maps that are available for that game. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. If not I will try to explain a little more.

Also, do you think it would be possilbe to be able to have and admin feature where you could add or delete fields for the join and challenge applications? So, you could maybe add some of your own questions like maybe is your clan able to host? or something like that.

[Lethal]

Also, maybe in the members profile have it show the members signature instead of the models or maybe have it as an option in the settings. Have an option to turn them on or off.

Models have been removed as vb now supports member pictures which can be turned off in the vb options.

2. I will consider this for a future version.

A lot of the ladder matches that our clan participates in requires the booking of a ladder approved server. Our clan, and quiet a few of the clans we participate against, have their own approved servers for the various ladders that we are in. So when clan matches are organised, so are the bookings of these servers. Would it be possible to add a feature when challenging, or adding a match to also make a booking for a server, or even just have a completely seperate "book a server" section, and if approved will make an entry in a selected calendar?

What I mean is, when someone goes to the challenge page and they select the game (i.e. Battlefield 1942) then the game type (i.e. CTF) then the War type (i.e. Scrimmage) then they fill in all the other information and then they get to my problem, the map selection

When they pick the locations, it brings up all the maps that are available for Battlefield 1942, even maps that aren't CTF. If the map isn't CTF it shouldn't show up for a CTF war. Only maps that are for CTF and thats it. Do you understand?

Not all the maps in BF are CTF playable on a select few. I would like to be able to add a map for BF and then add that to the game type that it is playble for. lol i'm probably just confusing everyone.

Also, what about the signature question that I had above?

Ahh...that will be fixed. As for the signature, yes that will be included. I have removed the models though as vbulletin now uses member profile pics.

Might I suggest incorporating the EXCELLENT TeamSpeak 2 script from GryphonLLC...
DEMO:

VERY COOL, have you added a feature where you can post matches to multiple forums instead of one?

This will be selectable, in other words you can have a forum for matches, another for scrims etc...

Thanks but we already have our own module for Teamspeak ;)

Will you be adding ventrilo voice servers?

Yes...

[BustaCap]

Things are coming along quite nicely....I have started working on the server stats piece and I'm about 60% done. You can see some of it working on my site but it won't display the data yet only the server listings.

Will there be an option to display the server stats on the server stats page, rather than having to click the "info" button? I would only have a few servers so it would be great if I could display all of them on one page without people having to click on each one individually.

This hack will be supported at the new home of vBWar (http://www.vbwar.com).

[Swanny231]

Dude OMG this already looks like it pwns the other port (um..) not mentioning names um cough cough vwar :cross-eyed: I cant wait.. Any chance of intergrating TWL stats into a block ?

[Dark_Wizard]

Private beta has just begun...hopefully will have a public release in the next few weeks...

[boydekort]

will this be the extension for from vwar.de or complete new version ?

[jamesk]

Has there been any progress on vbwar lately??

[boo.3]

[actolearn]

sorry for the ignorant question, but can anyone tell me what a clan is? this seems like an interesting hack although i'm having trouble understanding its overall purpose and various possiblilities.

It is out...

A Clan is a group of people that play online (for the most part) games like Unreal Tournament, Half Life etc...and have an identifier with their online name known as a tag that represents the clan they belong to....do a search on Google for Clan and Online Games....

*poke poke* I bet this whole module is dead?

No it's not and it is moving along quite well. There is a version already out for vbulletin 3.0.9 and it can be found here (http://www.vbwar.com/forums).

[Oap JTRipper]

well we use it & will continue when the vb3.5 version is out

saves a lot of hassle when arranging matches etc-if the clan can be bothered reading it :)

[PurPulHaZe]

Dark Wizard looks kool...

also do u remember me??? i think u know me as Hydro

[rberardo]

Keep the goos work.

Hello everyone,

Back about 2 months ago I had a heart attack and open heart surgery (Quadruple bypass). I am going to have to sell off vbwar coding, domain, encryption tools etc... to anyone who is interested. I need to take it easy for quite a while so any reasonable offers will be looked into. Email me if anyone is interested.
