v3 Arcade - Games Arcade & Challenge System [vB 3.0.3]

[rjordan]

I think this may be something different than the fix I posted, although in the same ballpark. I will see if I can find where this is coming from as well if noone else finds it first.

Original deleted user fix is here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=632760&postcount=3394

[rjordan]

Ok, let's try this. I have NOT tested this as I have not seen the problem first-hand.

In ./includes/cron/arcadeupdate.php:

Find:
$DB_site->query("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games SET highscorerid=$value[userid],highscore=$value[score] WHERE shortname='$key'");
REPLACE with:
if ($value[userid]!="") {
$DB_site->query("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games SET highscorerid=$value[userid],highscore=$value[score] WHERE shortname='$key'");
}

I hope this works for you. Let me know as I am curious now on your issue.

[rjordan]

BTW: Sorry for the post edits!

I got

Line 70 reads

[rjordan]

Take out the duplicate ")". I have corrected original post.

[RichieBoy67]

Isn't there a hack to get all the games in alphabetical order???

[albibak]

Search in the arcade.php :


$result_allgames = $DB_site->query("
SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games
");

Replace by :

$result_allgames = $DB_site->query("
SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games ORDER BY games.shortname
");


And find :

$whereclause AND $sessionclause ORDER BY gamesessions.gamename DESC


Replace by :

$whereclause AND $sessionclause ORDER BY gamesessions.gamename ASC

[Pepsi Man]

If you have more then 1 style installed on your board, then let those users try using a Style that you know is working with the arcade.

It could be that the templates are not (correct) installed for the Style they are using.
Thanks. It does appear to be a style issue. Why I gave the user credit for having tried both styles himself and didn't check that out myself I can't even say. :o

[lowcarbscoop]

I just read through all the posts and can't see an answer. I installed arcade under one style and it ran great. I added another style to the board, and re-ran the arcade install to make the changes to the style. The games play under both styles, but if you get a hi score while using the new style, it does not record hi scores.

Does anyone have any suggestions? For now I am having the users that want to attempt hi scores use the old style, but I want to get rid of that style!

Thanks in advance.

[RichieBoy67]

Thanks albiback!!!




I have // Selects all games from the database
$result_allgames = $DB_site->query("
SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games $searchclause ORDER BY gameid DESC
");


Should I replace this instead?? Forget it...... that worked... Thanks!!



Another problem I am having is that I cannot find the search addon to search arcade games..... Is this hack gone now???

[albibak]

This hack is in the original hack.
On your forum, when you go in the navbar, link search, you can see search module for arcade's games ;)

[jonnerd154]

Does anyone know if "Classic Frogger" has any copyright problems?

[RichieBoy67]

It is not in my navbar because I have a skin... It is a little different and I don't remember how I had it working before....


<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?$session[sessionurl]" accesskey="4">$vbphrase[advanced_search]</a></td>



That is part of my search in my navbar...

The instructions are...



Find:
__________________________________________________ _________________________________________

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>

?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????

Below this, add:
__________________________________________________ _________________________________________

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="arcade.php?$session[sessionurl]">Arcade</a></td>

?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????


Never mind.... I got it... Thanks

I got the search to show and everything but when ever I do a search for a game it just takes me to the first page of the arcade....

Thanks

[T3MEDIA]

Search in the arcade.php :Hey bro you have any ideas on how to lower the resources for this hack?

[swiss]

Can anyone confirm if this works with 3.0.7 ?

Thanks

[J-TEK]

Can anyone confirm if this works with 3.0.7 ?

Yes I would like to know that aswell.

[RichieBoy67]

Yes, I am using 3.07. The only problems I am haiving are caused from my skin....

My search is not working but I think it is because of my navbar. Everything else works fine...

Hey bro you have any ideas on how to lower the resources for this hack?Add a few indexes in arcade database tables, and removing the challenge system helps.. :)

Since V3Arcades closed .. anyone know where to get new games now ?

Its a pity that place closed .. it was a handy spot to get games ... anyone else gona set up a board to share hacks and games ? or should i go do it myself ?

[iTaLiAnBoY165]

my arcade was working for about a month then it restricted me from going in all members are restricted but in permissions everyones alllowed to go in

tried installing on 3.0.7 and this is the error i get now

[Marco van Herwaarden]

What editor did you use to edit your files?

That line should probably be looking like the following:
$debughtml .= " (<a href=\"" . htmlspecialchars_uni(SCRIPTPATH) . iif(strpos(SCRIPTPATH, '?') === false, '?', '&amp;') . "tempusage=1\">Template Usage</a>) (<a href=\"" . htmlspecialchars_uni(SCRIPTPATH) . iif(strpos(SCRIPTPATH, '?') === false, '?', '&amp;') . "explain=1\">Explain</a>)<br />\n";


I think that if this line got changed, maybe more is wrong.

I suggest you backup this file, and try what happens if you reload the original.

[Gottcha]

used dreamweaver to edit the files.

i replaced the functions.php and board is back up

[smacklan]

I have sort of an odd problem...don't know if anyone else has encountered it. I originally had IProArcade installed and working on 3.0.7 site. I installed v3Arcade and the install went smooth, all settings for usergroup permissions and activation of the games are set...but when you go to the arcade no games appear. I uninstalled the game, re-installed the clean vB files with no IBPro changes in them, reinstalled v3 with the correct modifications and the same problem. Any help out there with this one??? Many thanks!

[jrofosho]

I've searched this forum, and gone back over the code multiple times. I still get this error after installation.

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line 2997

The arcade link is on the menu, but it leads to an error.

[pk698]

will this work for 3.0.7?

The arcade link is on the menu, but it leads to an error.Make sure that you have modified your includes/init.php file correctly.


will this work for 3.0.7?Yes, it works fine with 3.0.7

[SpaceStar]

Waaao excellent hack - installed on my forum. Although installation went without any error and three out of five games can start, Tetris and Snake are not working. Tetris came to point where it load, LOADING...... hangs, and Snake just shows a black square.... (other games are working fine)

Do anyone have any clue????

Thanks in advance :)

[jrofosho]

okay. Thanks Oblivion. It was the init.

Now the images aren't being directed to the correct path. they are going to jrofosho.com/imageexample.gif

they should go to jrofosho.com/forum/images/

[dwillb]

Hey everybody. I have something of an odd problem. I just upgraded my forum to 3.0.7 and reinstalled the arcade hack. I have only one problem. When you click on any of the games in the arcade menu, you get an incorrect link. With Tetris, for example, you get this link:
index.php?act=Arcade&amp;do=play&amp;gameid=4

Instead of this:
arcade.php?act=Arcade&amp;do=play&amp;gameid=4

I'm not sure where the problem lies - I've checked over the installation steps and it appears as if I've done everything correctly. I did this with both 3.0.5 and 3.0.6 and it worked fine, so I'm pretty sure I'm not making any really stupid mistakes. Or maybe I am. Any ideas?

[Roxie]

Wanted games? Here they are!

Now you can get games for FREE from my site, no registration and NO FEES to pay.

Just go to http://www.anotherforum.net/files/v3games and download :)
Now, don't go around spreading the URL or my bandwidth will go to hell ;)

I know that probably not all games are there, but its still a lot of 'em :P

If you have zip files with games that are not here, and want to help the community by sharing them, PM me.

for those that missed it.

[Oblivion Knight]

okay. Thanks Oblivion. It was the init.

Re-edit your includes/functions.php file.. Make sure the path to the arcade images is set correctly.

OMG, i hope, that someone finds my post (237 pages...) ;)

I have the arcade with 300+ games installed on vb 3.0.1

I've upgraded vb to 3.0.7 today and the arcade did not work after upgrade.

How can i get the arcade to run with all games again?

Do i need to reinstall the arcade? (will the currently installed games still be there, after installing?)

I do have to edit all the files after each upgrade right? (so if vb 3.0.8 is out, i have to re-edit the files again?)

Has someone successful upgraded from 3.0.1 to 3.0.7 with transferring his arcade?

Some help would be very fine.

Yes, you will have to reinstall just as you would most other hacks.

[Wachtmeister]

and my currently installed games?

[rjordan]

They will remain as will all scores, play counters, etc.

Only do the file edits, though.

[Brandon Sheley]

i ran into the blank page problem, but i had made a test site, and just added each arcade_ template,, acording to the isntall it did instlal them, but in the styles& templates, they didn't show up ?? any ideas why that happen ? i've isntalled this ona few skins and a few test sites and never ran into this problem,, and looking though this thread i seen other ppl withthat problem, anyways, to fix it i just added each templates manually, and all works great,, maybe you can include a file that a user who runsinto this can look at to transfer the templete files over,,hope soem of this makes sinse, its getting alittle late for me, and i've had a few drinks :-"..lol anyways thx for the mods, its awsome and the add-ons are sweet :)

How do i install new games? .. where would i place the game php file?

v3arcade deleted user avatar fix(?)

After you delete a user, I have found that if you (or more importantly, a search spider) tries to access the stats link for that deleted user, you likely will get something like this:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT user.avatarid, user.avatarrevision, avatarpath, NOT ISNULL(avatardata) AS hascustom, customavatar.dateline
FROM user AS user
LEFT JOIN avatar AS avatar ON avatar.avatarid = user.avatarid
LEFT JOIN customavatar AS customavatar ON customavatar.userid = user.userid
WHERE user.userid =
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 5

mysql error number: 1064
There does not seem to be a check built-in to see if a user is actually a valid user. I have hopefully found a fix for this with the following:

Find:
$activitycount = $DB_site->query("
SELECT gamesessions.*, games.title FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "gamesessions AS gamesessions
LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games AS games ON gamesessions.gamename = games.shortname
WHERE userid=$userid AND valid=1 AND $sessionclause GROUP BY sessionid ORDER BY finish DESC");
and above this add:
if ($user['username']=="") {
$idname = $vbphrase['user'];
eval(print_standard_error('error_invalidid'));
}
I suspect that the scores for the deleted user might still be there after the user is deleted. If this is correct and vBulletin allows someone else to get this user ID, they might by default get all of the high scores for the games by the previous ID owner. Looking into that.

EDIT: It looks like vB does not recycle user IDs. This SHOULD work to eliminate the error.

I applied the fix for this error but this is the error my arcade.php returns:

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in
myISP\LPSForum\arcade.php on line 1664

I need this fix because this is the error that my members are getting:


This one:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT user.avatarid, user.avatarrevision, avatarpath, NOT ISNULL(avatardata) AS hascustom, customavatar.dateline
FROM vb3_user AS user
LEFT JOIN vb3_avatar AS avatar ON avatar.avatarid = user.avatarid
LEFT JOIN vb3_customavatar AS customavatar ON customavatar.userid = user.userid
WHERE user.userid =


and This one:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT gamesessions.*,user.username FROM vb3_gamesessions AS gamesessions
LEFT JOIN vb3_user AS user ON gamesessions.userid = user.userid
WHERE vb3_gamesessions.valid=1 AND gamesessions.sessiontype IN (1,2) ORDER BY gamesessions.finish DESC LIMIT 0,1

mysql error: Unknown table 'vb3_gamesessions' in where clause

mysql error number: 1109

I am fairly new to PHP and VB and am quite lost on how to fix these two errors.

Any help is greatly appreicated.
Robin

[rjordan]

Can you post the lines from just before the fix as applied to a few lines after?

[YLP1]

Can you post the lines from just before the fix as applied to a few lines after?
Is this what you want to see? The fix code is bolded:

if ($userid==0) {
print_no_permission();
}
$user = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid=$userid");
if ($user['username']=="") {
$idname = $vbphrase['user'];
eval(print_standard_error('error_invalidid'));
}
$activitycount = $DB_site->query("
SELECT gamesessions.*, games.title FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "gamesessions AS gamesessions
LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "games AS games ON gamesessions.gamename = games.shortname
WHERE userid=$userid AND valid=1 AND $sessionclause GROUP BY sessionid ORDER BY finish DESC");
$played = $DB_site->num_rows($activitycount);
$i = 1;

And thank you so much for helping me with this.

[rjordan]

($userid==0) {
print_no_permission();
}
Should be:
if ($userid==0) {
print_no_permission();
}
Otherwise, it looks right.

As for your second MySQL error, is your 'vb3_gamesessions' table in your database? Is that the right table name?

[YLP1]

Should be:

yep I had this. It just cut off when I copied it.

if ($userid==0) {
print_no_permission();
}
$user = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid=$userid");
if ($user['username']=="")

I confirmed that I do have a table named vb3_gamesessions

[rjordan]

I just went to your arcade. I clicked on a few names, scores, etc., but cannot get an error. What are the users doing or clicking on when they get the error? Did you get the PHP error after putting in the fix I posted? Have you tried taking it out if that is the case?

It may be at the point of needing to see your arcade.php to do much more.

As far the error after the fix..Yes I removed it because it gives blank error page with SQL error.

The 2nd error...I am asking the members what they were doing when they got the error...still pending that.

I got the errors via my email.

If you want to look at my arcade.php that would be great. Just tell me how you want me to get it to you.

[plubius]

The last time that I spoke to John a couple of months back, he was planning on a new version of v3arcade.. Though a pro version has supposedly been in the pipeline since the first release, so I don't know where that stands. As for the suggestion of removing it from vbulletin.org or moving it to an "inactive hacks" forum, I simply laugh at those who suggested it.. :p

It is replies such as this that I think endorse my opinion. First, none of us can be in the "know" with this John who does not deem it worthy to make his intentions known to the masses. It would seem this Oblivion Knight has all the answers, well kudos to him.

As far as your laughing at those who have suggested this hack be put in its proper place, I cannot see how such a declaration can serve any purpose but to cause one to consider anything you say made by a person who laughs at things that are really not funny, unless of course, they consider someone installing a hack that there are no games for humorous.


I'm sure people want something for nothing these days.. There are nearly 1,000 games available and people still want more? Just how much bandwidth do you want to eat up? ;)

We have the wise guru here informing us of how the masses want free things, interesting, and in his wisdom he informs us that there are thousands of games out there for us. Ok, where? I am sure I would rather use up more bandwidth than the 5 or 6 games I have now will use.


To the others, I am sorry, I have tried to avoid any unpleasantness, but as you can see sometimes there are trolls who will not let you. Some are so called educated trolls who instead of addressing the issue prop themselves up and promote ridicule.

[rjordan]

lots of... well... something...
Ok, what purpose did this post serve other than to state the known fact that John is not releasing information on his pro version (if it is being released)? Also, at the time of your post, Oblivion did not say there were "thousands". He said nearly a thousand.

As to laughing at something that has no games available for it, there are games out there. I personally have roughly 900 coming out for download (and no, not duplicates like some of the current game packs have). I was going to wait until after I got some of the games entered into my database, but now I may have to publish the site so we can stop the ridiculous (hope I spelled that right) comments about how there are no games out there. I know that more are being converted by Dechevious as he is now at over 1000 games on his site (www.v3arcadegames.com (http://www.v3arcadegames.com/)).

Hell, if I can find a tutorial that can made a flash noob like myself understand how, I would love to convert some games myself.

[dimitris]

Please, can help me?
i edit the game description and the description disapear form Admin CP and it locks, it cannot be re editable again but in the description of the arcade page apears as i wrote, but is not editable anymore

any one know how to fix this?

[BlackxRam]

Don't even bother registering on that v3arcadegames site because no matter what email you use it says it has been banned and I have never registered on that site before in my life.

This is why I think I ended up switching to IBproarcade. For hassles and stupidity like this that was found with V3arcade. A problem that became apparent more in the later stages of its life. Instead of dealing with the problem, he tucked his tail and hid. Thats not how you solve problems. I would have had more respect if he stuck with it and fought the issues. But cutting support off, betrayed loyal users of his modification.

That was wrong.

Yeah, and $20 per user for the first month is outrageous - HOW is it possible that one user can use $20 worth of US-server bandwidth?

The code that the readme wants me to find isnt in global.php:

As far as your laughing at those who have suggested this hack be put in its proper place, I cannot see how such a declaration can serve any purpose but to cause one to consider anything you say made by a person who laughs at things that are really not funny, unless of course, they consider someone installing a hack that there are no games for humorous.As far as I am concerned, the hack is already in it's proper place? :rolleyes:


We have the wise guru here informing us of how the masses want free things, interesting, and in his wisdom he informs us that there are thousands of games out there for us. Ok, where? I am sure I would rather use up more bandwidth than the 5 or 6 games I have now will use.There have been several links posted in this thread to downloadable games for v3arcade, free of charge.. They're out there if you look hard enough.! :D

[plubius]

I have offered what I think to be good rationale why this hack in defunct. Some of you agree and others don't, seeming to suggest it be kept around for the various individual webmasters or board owners to decide if they want to use it. This also seems to suggest that we should keep some hacks around that contain traps so people can fall in them. A good joke or two or two never hurt anyone, right? Well, of course, I say wrong and I would think most others would as well.

I agree with the others that Deschevious site is not the answer unless you just like to throw away money.

Thanks to all who have gave links to games.

[Brent H]

LOL this hack is defunct? Riiiight ;)

I just downloaded 500+ games for this thing. We've got a 239 page thread full of people helping each other out with coding problems and finding games. Just because the creator of this hack no longer has a functioning website does not make this hack any less valuable.

Deschevious's site... I have never paid for a game for this thing, nor will I ever. His site DOES have plenty of excellent additions to the arcade though as far as modifications.

This post may bring it to 240 pages.

V3Arcade isn't dead... there's still plenty of folks updating the game selections and various mods. Heck, there's a bunch of people hosting games for everyone to download. I can fully understand the webmaster of v3 shutting down the website if people kept ignoring copyright issues. I got some stern warnings on my old political site because a few members kept posting published articles out of context, or they would not list the source. I ended up wiping out the whole thing rather than deal with the hassles and letters from legal departments.

As far as Deschevious's site goes: I subscribed for the first month and I saw where he would get a bunch more long term members if he lowered the additional monthly fee to like $5 a month (after the initial $25). I was on it for a month and like most people I got a ton of games, a great new look for my arcade, but once I had the games that I wanted I just could not see plopping down $15 a month for just a handful of new releases.

I'd recommend it for anyone who want a variety of games (you can only have so many version of pacman and tetris!) $25 was kind of steep, but it was good for a single month and I grabbed quite a few newer game releases. Unless you know of another site that offers an updated selection of properly modded games.

My only complaint was the support was almost nil. I was wanting the basics for changing over a .swf game to run in v3arcade, and so did quite a few others, but no one ever posted much in the way of assistance.


And in closing I'll be sure to upload the latest Yeti game Yeti #8!

I'm sure it may be worth it for some, but I do not believe that people should be making money out of the distribution of games which are not theirs, for a hack which is not theirs - which is what I believe is happening :(

[sim tech]

True. I never thought of it that way. I was just looking at it from a service point of view.

Please, can help me?

[RichieBoy67]

Are there any path changes for using this on a site with VBPortal???

Anything else that might cause arcade.php to contain nothing??? It appears that all the templates were installed etc but still nothing... Is it possible this could be a permission issue or a path issue??

[Kaishi]

is there any specific changes in the default installation.txt i have to change for this to work with 3.07?

[YLP1]

I have a question for you gurus (noobe here).... I make swish/flash animations using my graphics program, swish (I don't know how to use flash program and I don't own it = too expensive) and It's Me 3d people avatar animations.

My question is.....could I install these in the arcade if I change the install php file to reference the swish/flash I created?

Thanks in advance and I am sorry if I hijacked the topic...I just thought that this would be related.

[Kila_Bite]

Just installed V3 Arcade. Its there but when I go to play it, as the network admin I cannot do so. It says I do not have permission. I have checked and re-checked all file edits and My usergroup is set to "yes" in every aspect of the arcade.
Can you tell me whats going on? Myself and another person have checked through my edits and they are air tight.

could you add an addon to this where people could become points in the ucash system on challanges? I think alot of people would like that.

[RichieBoy67]

A friends site I installed this on is having what looks like a template problem.... On the arcade.php page everything shows up but the games.....


I have read the posts on this where most say it is usually a template issue but I do not believe it is in theis case. Is there any thing else that could cause this....


There will be a small reward for an answer leading to a solution :)

[Kila_Bite]

As long as people do not forget my request for help. I have seen a few people get ignored with this issue. Its clearly a problem and i'd really like to sort it.
Is there anywhere in this thread that tells me what to do?

[RichieBoy67]

I have figured out the problem my friend was having... maybe this can help someone else...

When you install the other arcade it tells you to create a template called arcade.... you must delete this and any other templates that the other arcade installs before installing this version..... if you simply uninstall the other one it will not work.....

[Gottcha]

thankl you for all the hours you put in on installing this for me...great job and thank you once again

[Kila_Bite]

If it's a fresh install and you have no other arcade hacks installed such as IbProArcade, then all templates are installed except for the modifications listed in the instructions.

"could you add an addon to this where people could become points in the ucash system on challanges? I think alot of people would like that."

Or has this already been accomplished? I would like to find a way to get this done. Thanks. I bet it wouldn't be that much code. It already returns a winner. Would just have to put a place to bet your points. Thanks

I'm somewhat of a newbie, but from what I've seen and been told... you didn't need to reinstall. What you needed to do was redo ALL the file edits. When you upgrade vB it must overwrite a a lot of the files, and in doing so, kills any hacks depending on those files. Have you tried redoing all of the original file edits?

Hello,

Whenever I try to go to the second page of games I am getting this error message:

[SoxFan]

// Shows a nopermission if the arcade is closed
if ($arcadegeneral['active'] == 0) {

Here's the code for around 1355. I maybe it was a permissions error, so I cleared it up so that anyone could play. That did not fix it.

I tried to look through this thread, but since it has grown to so many pages, it's a bit hard to scan...

And about searching... shure, that would have been greate, if you would know what exaktly to search for... for example searching for "install game" gave the following result:

Search took 1.26 seconds.

The answer to your question is in your post:

"mysql error: Table 'gamechallenges' already exists"

It has already created that table and wont let you create it again, if this is preventing you from continuing with the install then try uninstalling first to remove it.

Hmm - it doesn't seem to record the scores - always '0'.

Anybody know why?

do all the steps in reverse then go into phpmyadmin and delete tables that are associated with the arcade or use an uninstall script if its available for removing the arcade tables

just noticed something today with this hack
clear.gif is hard coded into the templates
if you move clear.gif from your forum root you will get a lot of 404's

search for

replace with
src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]"

Something that has been bothering me is that people who endorse the other arcade have been bashing this one. This is a great arcade and if you read this entire thread like I have you will understand why John stopped supporting this!!! This is probably the best hack ever created and most problems have been cuased by either a faulty installation or a hack conflict....

I just think that it is extremly rude for people who like this arcade getting talked out of installing it by people bashing it. There are many, many people using this arcade without problems...

To keep this hack alive I am offering my services to install this.

I have done this install over 25 times and I have repaired and troubleshooted install problems over 10 times. I have had this hack installed on 2 sites for well over a year.

If you are having a problem or if you need this installed I will do it for a very cheap and fair price.... This is a great hack!!! I also have almost all the zip files with the uncopyrighted games and I will ftp them for free as time permits...

I love the arcade, my users enjoy it

But, a user who had alot of high scores recently quit the forums and his user name was deleted, so all the high scores show up without a name
Is there anyway to remove all the entries without having to delve into the database itself?

Installed with no problem! FANTASTIC. My only question is where can I get more games?

THANKS JOHN, dont worry about the haters.

[Scooterpig]

My only question is where can I get more games?

Go back 2 pages..:)

[rjordan]

Tell me what you guys think. Would you like to see a game download site that has all available games uploaded or would you think it to be prefered to get it online right away and people would simply have to check online as the games are uploaded? My site has been put up, but I have only uploaded about 15 games so far (worked on it for about 30 minutes uploading, so more time = more games). If people more or less say put it up and they will check as games are uploaded, then that is what I will do. As it stands, I have entered the games that begin with numbers. A's are next followed by B's, etc.

[MissKalunji]

I followed the install instructions to a "T" and ended up with a perpetual slew of error codes specifically dealing with the now dreaded functions.php

Here's the latest beauty:


Parse error: parse error, unexpected '=', expecting ')' in /www/j/blahblahblah/htdocs/Forum/includes/functions.php on line 1627

I even went back to vB.com for another download of functions.php.

No luck. I think the gamer in me is getting a bit tired of this.


Yes, dumb me, I used Dreamweaver to edit the code. May I suggest a sticky note WARNING : Users of Dreamweaver, not to use it with any vB HACKS. How hard would this be. I did successfully add vB Chat with Dreamweaver, but that one is so easy, even a caveman can do it.

I know its not just me, but I'm beginning to think v3 Arcade is just riddled with weaknesses. I think I'd rather have a virus. At least then, typically you can just press a button to remove it.

Seriously, I'd be willing to listen to someone who has real time saving answers. I might even be willing to pay. :ermm: John, Seriously.

I just bought Namo web editor. Not user friendly at all, but also not going to automatically doctor your code.


you dont need to waiste your money on all these stuff just use note pad and read properly that would do :ermm:

[rjordan]

Crimson Editor is great to use and is free. Color codes your text and makes things a lot easier to edit than Notepad.

I know its not just me, but I'm beginning to think v3 Arcade is just riddled with weaknesses. I think I'd rather have a virus.
Nah... more likely something was missed in install or changed by your editor you did not see. Countless members installed without a problem.

[Justdave]

Mj: I'm looking for help, not criticism. Please "properly" re-read my post. Thank You.

rj: Thank You. I'm closer to resolution of this mess with your response. Should I attempt to re-install over the existing arcade program, or back track and delete all of my file edits in reverse order?

[rjordan]

Either way should work. If this was the last mod you installed and made backups of the files before you made the changes, I would put a copy of those backups in place and reinstall the file edits from there.

Make sure you get all of the changes required. I forgot a simple closing bracket at one point installing this which made it not work.

[Dragon_Z]

I installed V3 arcade, when I try to install any game, I get this

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: print_cp_header() in C:\{forumroot}\{file/gamename}.game.php on line 61

here is what is on line 61

print_cp_header("v3 Arcade - $title");

any help/suggestions will be useful, thx

[rjordan]

Did you install the templates? Go to your AdminCP styles and see of you have the arcade templates. If not, re-run the install and install them.

Edit: Actually, rereading your post, this may not be the issue, but check it out anyway... :o

[Dragon_Z]

it didnt install the templates, started the installer again and it added the templates. I cheack and they arent there, only the mods that I made manually.

any ideas?

[Justdave]

I have the templates in vB. After recoding the fresh files, I don't get the error codes, but I do get just a blank page after clicking the arcade icon in the navigation bar. I'm not sure why I have no gifs displayed or fla files fla-ing.

[Dragon_Z]

hmm, what are the names of the templates the installer adds, maybe I am not looking for the right thing.

I can play the 5 basic games that are thereas well as change their option ins the CP, I just cant install new ones.

[iChambers]

What is to become of v3Arcade when vB 3.5 is release later this year? Is it going to be redeveloped to work with vB 3.5? This is the only hack I use that I have not heard about moving with to 3.5!

Yep, it will be. It'll be very different, but it'll still use the same score data.

[rjordan]

He's ALIVE! lol

[Justdave]

This is a blindman smilie.

Well I did go through the files again, and found a missing edits.

I now can edit arcade in the ACP. What I get now, when I click on Arcade in navbar is another page, but a 404 message. So none of the graphics or vB gifs for that matter are posting.

I still think I have a template issue. But my templates are all in place. I suppose I can recheck the locations of all of the file uploads..

My postbit legacy and navbar edits are also correct.

I think that I am so close to making this work, but yet so far away.

Would someone like to see my arcade.php?

Bottomline question:

How do I remedy a 404 error?

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help.

[Justdave]

OK I've made progress in the last 5 minutes.

I changed the name of arcade.php to Arcade.php and I now have a complete Arcade screen!

Just a little matter of keeping my capitals and lowercase straight!

:squareeyed:

[Lexina]

Just letting everyone know I fixed my problem... ended up being a script problem. Thanks for your help!

[Turbo_WRX]

quick question, how do you delete the scores and start the arcade fresh?

[Lizard King]

Yep, it will be. It'll be very different, but it'll still use the same score data.
It is really good news John. This is the greatest hack ever been released on vb.org for vb 3.0.x i never see a hack that is installed this much.

If you are planning any new features can I suggest one :) Is there a way to add some javagames like backgammon and chess that members can play each other ? If it is possible it will be perfect for the boards.

[skenmy]

@Intrepid - sorry for the slow responses i've been extremely busy.

It happens on all the games.

[asasi]

[COLOR=RoyalBlue]Hi!
Thanks For Your Nice Modification. :nervous:

I have 2 problems:
1) My users Say somtimes when they submit a new score in the page appear "You Do not Have Permission to acces this page"! :disappointed:

2) I want to change news and allert tgezt to my language! but not found in the phrases and templates! :rolleyes:

thanks!

[Justdave]

I'm realizing now, just how great this hack really is.

John, thanks for this!!!

I want to appologize for venting my frustration in some of my previous posts. The real fault was all mine in the installation, and I didn't mean to offend anyone.

JustDave

[RichieBoy67]

John is back on this!!!!


Awesome John!!!!! This has got to be the all time best out there!!! Glad to see you working on this again... I have been spreading the v3arcade word for you!!!! :)

Is it possible to have some games available to all users, and some only available to users with a paid subscription? So basicially set usergroup permissions for each game and not just the whole arcade?

Thanks.

[cjsmythe]

I know I know , I should have backed it up , it seemed so simple :surprised:

I seem to have deleted the section of the arcade navbar template that displays the standard links, ie "your settings", "challenges" etc.

Its the one that reads like this on the arcade in here;

Arcade Home | Your Settings | Your Statistics | Challenges | Your Faves | Top 25 Champions | You can play 0 more Games

How do i get this back??

Thanks

[Turbo_WRX]

Here is mine, I have already a few hacks, so go through this code and delete what u don't need. I also have "member links" or whatever that used to be up there deleted cause I never used it. So yeah, just go through this and delete the codes that you don't need.

[Arial]

<a href="http://www.global-army.com/forum/arcade.php" target="_blank">http://www.global-army.com/forum/arcade.php</a>

But are their more games than just those 5?

[beansbaxter]

Got it working on VB 3.07 so far. Only issue during install was the same parse error with the include/function.php which I was editing with DreamweaverMX04, so I instead made the edit just using Window's standard Notepad, then uploaded the new file, and the images work perfect.

Now I'll go mess with the Arcade and make sure it's all functional. So far, I like it. Hope to put some more games in it.

[Arial]

Does anybody know if this hack is supported any more at all?

[Arial]

Is there a hack out that would show all the members who are currently playing on one of the games at the time your there?

[SuperGLS]

Finally decided to make the Arcade work again after I upgraded to 3.0.7 a couple months ago, it went perfect. The members are happy now.

Don't suppose you could tell me where I can get additional games from the basic 5 games that came with it could you?

[SuperGLS]

Nope, I'm currently looking myself.

I'm not sure they are available unless you get them from another user.

[Milk Man]

yeah v3arcade site is closed for that. Sucks, i don't suppose you could get any game with a .swf file could you?

[Arial]

Oh I C, what a pain, very surreal you cant' just download them from somewhere easy, well if you find any pls PM me, has anyone read every page in this thread to see if somebody has a working v3 with games we could ask them to kindly send to us?

[TranceCan]

I've been using V3 arcade for a long time, no troubles. Now I am changing my forums so they can only be accessed using SSL (https://....).

I have everything running smoothly...EXCEPT...in the arcade after playing a game I can't SUBMIT SCORE in any games. This seems to only happen in IE, Firefox is able to submit the score. Anyone have an idea on where the problem might be?

It's strange, because when I click on the submit score button it doesn't do ANYTHING at all (in IE anyway). Could it have anything to do with META refresh? I saw that line in the code somewhere....it gets passed to the flash program as "Data". ???

[steadicamop]

Right, there seems to be a few people looking for games, these are some I've collected along my travels, but please note - I cannot find the banned list, some of these games *may be* on there, it is your responsibility NOT to use them.

22mb collection, in WinRAR format HERE (www.steadivideo.myby.co.uk/v3arcade-games.rar)

I think there's around 103 games in total there.

Hope this helps :squareeyed:

in the options for the Arcade it asks if netPlay is installed, where do you get it? You can play multiplayer games that way right?

and is there a way to make it a 10post minimm in the forum in order to play the arcade?

awesome hack btw

[Exitilus]

I've been looking through this thread for hours. Basically my scores are not submitting. Once you hit submit nothing happens. If it auto-submits it just stays on the game screen. If you exit out. You have a score of 0.

This is a fresh install on my test site.

[KTBleeding]

once again
Yes. I just added this to my arcade.

I was going to incorporate it more into the settings and actually release it as an addon, but I am too lazy to do all that so I just did this real quick for my site.

Open forums/arcade.php and find:
// Stops unauthorised users from gaining access to the arcade

Add ABOVE it:
// Checks to see if the user has enough posts to play
if ($bbuserinfo['posts'] < 5) { // Replace 5 with whatever number you want to limit the posts to
eval(print_standard_error('error_not_enough_posts_ arcade'));
}

Now just make a new phrase titled "not_enough_posts_arcade" and put whatever you want the error message to say.

[Mr.D]

Most cool! I've been looking for something like this! I have a bunch of users who hold the high scrores on hundreds of my games but have never posted.

Could it be as simple to just changing "posts" to "points" so that a member would be charged a specific number if points for each game play? I'm using the uTT store hack.

[morby]

I'm having a bit of a problem.

- some of the images won't show.
- i can't play the games because when i click "play now" they won't show up.

Any advise on fixing this is greatly appreciated it's been driving me nuts for over a week now.

Hi RJordon.....I got the other error fixed but this one is still hanging around and is intermittent.

I have tried all of the code mods over again and still can't get rid of this.

Any ideas?

[rjordan]

I am not sure. What I gave to you to fix this problem fixed the exact same problem on my site. I will try to look more, but I do not know what else to give you at this point.

Hello,

some of my users cannot challenge anymore and some scores where not set to 0, when resetting the scores last month. (as described here: http://www.v3arcadegames.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3648)

Does someone has an idea, what went wrong and what can be the problem, that some users cannot challenge anymore? Does anyone know the sql command to reset all scores to 0 and does anyone how to reset all other relevant tables in the user record?

Best wishes, Wachtmeister

I went and uploaded the files as they was before I started and I am still getting these errors after so. The site is down I have no clue as to what happened or how to fix it. Could someone please give me some type of diriction please.

Use notepad or a decent editor instead of wordpad.

Again I had these errors mentioned above after the file edits W/WordPad, I reuploaded the files as they was before the edits and the errors stayed.

Today I just went back in and edited the files again with NotePad and I have the same exact errors still, nothing changed. I would think that I must have removed something a comma who knows but I am not understanding why after I uploaded the files as they was before I started the Aracde mods I get the same errors.

Today is my kids birthday party and I really would like to have this corrected ASAP. Willing to pay a fee for the Tech help here on this issue so that we can have our community back up and running again.

Dreamweaver ++++s up your functions.php you have to rehack that file from scratch reinstalling all your hacks again.

You have to do the template modifications for each style on your forums.

If it say that it doesn't exist, then it doesn't exist. How you verified it exists?

Powow, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?

Please tell me - How to fix it?

I have the same problem. I had the problem before and reinstalled it and that did the trick, this time I can't get it to go away.

I'm also open for suggestions.
