[Vb-Hispano]

could I translate into Spanish?

thanks

[BarBeQue]

Suggestion (or request, how you wanna interprete it ;):

Make a list of categories to the right where you can choose the category (wordlist) you wanna play.

[blubber12]

Great hack...and I second barbeque's suggestion ;)

[Souli]

Nice Hack, but i miss a Higscore and a Store Addon

[gmarik]

Could you make it work with Cyrillic letters as well?

[djohn]

I guess, i have the same problem as gmarik, any way to get this awesome hack to work with cyrillic letters?

You can add more characters to be allowed in the hangman.php file. :) Go and take a look - you'll work out where to add them.

[neocorteqz]

Nice. This should add nicely to the V3Arcade. :)

Added it to the Navbar and quick links section pretty easy.

[Boofo]

Been waiting for this and since my buddy Dewayne ported it, I have no doubt it is great. ;) Clicks install.

[Boofo]

Erwin. is there a way to add another settinmg in the Admin CP for the category you use for words? Like Movies or Games or something like that and have it show up in the title or something so users know what kind of words they are supposed to be guessing?

[neocorteqz]

that would be cool, along with a selectable list to choose from as suggested above. so that you can choose. :)

[Cyricx]

Heck ya, if they could be divided into categories would be the clencher for me :)

I love the idea and looks awesome, but definately would like a category addition. :)

[deathemperor]

OMG
I finally have this, vb3 has hangman at last ! ^^

[bierhumpen]

installed!!!
cool hack THX

[blubber12]

Love the hack as do my members...One little glitch though. Words and phrases shouldn't have apostrophe's or other punctuation, correct? I'm using one of the word lists and a few include apostrophe's, and my members are getting hung up..No pun intended LOL...Can I just remove the apostrophe's or am I missing something.

Thanks

[Fi_InCogNiTo]

Hey my movie list! Wow, that was a long time ago =D

* Fi_InCogNiTo clicks install

Nice port :)

[Red Blaze]

file is corrupt. :S Maybe it's my PC. -_-

[Red Blaze]

Is there a way where there is a winner, they can win points depending how many turns they use.

Example:

No Guesses missed = 200 rings (or points)
1 miss = 150
2 misses = 100
3 misses = 75
4 misses =50
5 misses = 25
Game Over = 0

Can it be done?

EDIT: Oops, the file became better, just refreshed and deleted cookies. Sorry for the double post, ignore the other one.

[Alien]

Wow!

Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!

:banana:

[GenSec]

I guess, i have the same problem as gmarik, any way to get this awesome hack to work with cyrillic letters?

Just find in hangman.php
$nwrong=$wrong;

Add above

$Ralpha = "@?????Ũ??????????????????????????";
$links .= "<BR><BR>";
for ($c=0; $c<33; $c++)
{
if (strstr($letters, $Ralpha[$c]))
{
if (strstr($words[$n], $Ralpha[$c])) {$links .= "\n<B>$Ralpha[$c]</B> "; }
else { $links .= "\n<FONT color=\"red\">$Ralpha[$c] </font>"; $wrong++; }
}
else
{ $links .= "\n<A HREF=\"$PHP_SELF?letters=$Ralpha[$c]$letters&n=$n\">$Ralpha[$c]</A> "; }
}

$Ralfa="cyrillic letters"

[Zelda-King]

This hack seriously could use online locations adding. If someone's playing Hangman someone else can look in Who's Online, click on the location link and learn words that way.

[Zelda-King]

I decided to post the fix myself for any lazy or non-coder admins out there;

1) Open includes/functions_online.php

2) Find case 'modcplogin':
$userinfo['action'] = $vbphrase['moderator_control_panel_login'];
break;

3) Underneath add case 'hangman':
$userinfo['where'] = "<a href=\"hangman.php?$session[sessionurl]\">Playing Hangman</a>";
break;
4) Find case '/robots.txt':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'spider';
break;
5) Underneath add case 'hangman.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'hangman';
break;
6) Save and upload includes/functions_online.php

Done!

[BarBeQue]

tnx for the fix!

btw

Anybody who has a few new and upto date wordlists (like for movie, one that has a also has movie's that as less then 3 year old)

[deathemperor]

there's store hack released, could someone make this when users win they gain store points and opposite.
vb2 had this so plz make this someone

[msimplay]

i second that notion

[AutomatikStudio]

there's store hack released, could someone make this when users win they gain store points and opposite.
vb2 had this so plz make this someoneI will hopefully release this tonight.

[AutomatikStudio]

Alright. Here's a quick little hack for people with the store hack. It adds or subtracts points from the user depending on whether they win or lose.

All of these edits occur in hangman.php

FIND
$play .= "The $term was \"<B>$word</B>\"<BR><BR>\n<A HREF=$PHP_SELF?n=$n>Play again.</A>\n\n";

ADD BELOW

$losspoints=2; //Number of points subtracted for losing
if ($bbuserinfo['uttpoints'] > $losspoints){ //only subtract if the users points are greater than the amount to subtract
$userid=$bbuserinfo['userid'];
mysql_query("UPDATE user SET uttpoints=uttpoints-'$losspoints' WHERE userid='$userid'");
}

FIND
$win .= "<BR><BR><H1><font size=5>\n$word_line</font></H1>\n<P><BR><BR><B>Congratulations $bbuserinfo[username]!!! &nbsp;You have won!!!</B><BR><BR><BR>\n<A HREF=$PHP_SELF?n=$n>Play again</A>\n\n";

ADD BELOW

$winpoints=10; //Number of points added for winning
$userid=$bbuserinfo['userid'];
mysql_query("UPDATE user SET uttpoints=uttpoints+'$winpoints' WHERE userid='$userid'");

Took like 5 seconds to do. If you want other little features to integrate this with the store just let me know and I'll see what I can do.

[Zelda-King]

Hmm, did you take into account them having enough money to play? We wouldn't want people going into the minus range.

[AutomatikStudio]

Hmm, did you take into account them having enough money to play? We wouldn't want people going into the minus range.Thanks for bringing that to my attention. The code has been updated to only subtract if the users points are greater than the amount to subtract.

[Catch-22|BL]

Nice and simple! Easy install and very straightforward! :)

[Zelda-King]

Someone on my board reported something disturbing.
With the way it is right now, it's possible to cheat in Hangman by simply backing up in the browser window to take back an incorrect move.I've tested this. You can guarantee victory with this glitch.

[deathemperor]

like the vb2 version, back to cheat
but like Erwin said this hack was not supposed to take your board's performance.
but I anyway have to disable that ^^
can you AutomatikStudio ?

[Zelda-King]

Well I want to use the uStore integration posted here but I can't right now because anyone in the know could just cash in... but I'm aware this wasn't on Erwin's mind when he wrote this so I'm not fussing.

[jancarlo]

to me it gives these errors:

Warning: rand(): Invalid range: 1..0 in /home/httpd/vhosts/forum.com/httpdocs/hangman.php on line 42

Warning: rand(): Invalid range: 1..0 in /home/httpd/vhosts/forum.com/httpdocs/hangman.php on line 91

how I can resolve?

thanks

[Holidazed]

Erwin, there is now file attachment for this hack. Can you repost it please? I see the games_list_1.txt, movielist.txt & artists.txt files, but not hack attachment.

[Alien]

Yep, vanished into thin air... Hmm...

[Erwin]

Yep, vanished into thin air... Hmm...
Weird.

I added it back to the 1st (well, 3rd) post. :)

[Holidazed]

Does anybody have the zip file for this hack?

[msimplay]

is there anyway to make this hack accept apostrophe's ?

[deathemperor]

Erwin can you make this use session therefor users cannot cheat by pressing back button ?
I need hangman to give users money when playing it so cheating should be disable.

[Holidazed]

It seems Erwin is not supporting this hack anymore. The zip attachment is gone and nobody replies to the post.

This sucks.

[Holidazed]

thank you

Erwin, any chance of adding this is hack multiple categories?

This way we can have several word lists and either pull randomly (having it display the category) or allow the category to be user selectable.

[nnjj.net]

is this working with vBulletin Version 3.0.1?

thanks

[Holidazed]

it works with 3.01 for me. However, it is not a big enuf game for me to want to run. I need multiple lists and categories. Maybe more like a Wheel of Fortune game.

[nnjj.net]

thanks

[Cyricx]

Only two things holding me from tossin this on my site is the categories and the bug that lets them cheat :(

Awesome hack though Erwin, just hope you or another has times to add these two requests :)

Back button fix :

This will stop you from going back and re-guessing the right letters:

Go into your hangman template

Find :


$headinclude


Add after :


<script>
history.forward();
</script>


Teh Blam

[Kru]

if u type into the web addy:ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ on the bit where it says letters= then u can get it in 1 guess each time

e.g.

Thanks for sharing the fix! I guess it's OK to stick the Ushop integration back on my forums now.

another bug: where it says the letters you have used in address bar, if you delete the letter thats wrong, it will take you back a step and you wont lose a step.

[Blam Forumz]

Anyway I can make it so supermoderators can edit hangman words?

[neocorteqz]

Anyway I can make it so supermoderators can edit hangman words? they would have to have access to the vBull settings, afaik, there is no way to restrict anyone to just one setting on that page, not without another hack maybe.

[The Equivocate]

Aside from the obvious cheating methods, this is a great hack. Maybe there is a way to prevent people from cheating (editing the letters in the URL), but I'll still use it.

[James T Brock]

Great as it is, but if they could somehow eliminate the letters in the URL cheating method, it would be even better.

[Hoffi]

Is there a Shop integration that depends on the Number of wrong coices? So if they get the right word without mistakes they won 10 and for every wrong choice there is one Point substracted? That were great.

[HiDeo]

Nice job !

Thanks Erwin

[Blam Forumz]

IF you ment me and this Post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=500843&postcount=32) it is not what I am looking for. There are 10 Points given for the right Word. But I want to give my Users 10 minus wrong Tips Points.

Stupid question but HOW....

1) Upload hangman_installer.php to your admincp directory & run the installer.
I installed this from the download.

[yesfans]

I go to it on my site and I get a HANG thing and it says I won but I can not play again. I do not see any settings in my admin panel.

[yoyoyoyo]

Alright. Here's a quick little hack for people with the store hack. It adds or subtracts points from the user depending on whether they win or lose.
how many points do they win or lose? how is this determinded?

Under Admin CP, vB Options.

Run vb in debug mode and you can add or delete them with ease.

[jeepinator]

Was that an answer to both questions?

[jeepinator]

I'll ask only one (1) question per post from now on. And be more clear?

[EvilLS1]

Was that an answer to both questions?

The only DB changes it adds are the settings in the admincp. You can easily remove them by enabling debug mode like Erwin said.

Open your includes/config.php file and find this:

$cookieprefix = 'bb';


Below it add:

$debug='1';


Login to your admincp and it will now give you the option to remove the hangman settings.

Once you've removed the settings turn debug mode off (remove $debug='1'; from your config.php file).

[tanyeri24]

1) Upload hangman_installer.php to your admincp directory & run the installer.

the file is in /admincp/
I ran it and give error message back like this:

Suggestion - it would be cool if hangman could have a stats page, sort of like the shoutbox, showing a leaderboard, latest players, etc..

Quick question though...

I made the changes to the hangman.php file for the Store Hack integration part but it's not working. It's not adding or taking away any points whatsoever.

Was I supposed to do something aside from just the hangman.php edits??? :confused:

Thank you! :)

[bluesteel]

@ Pamela

I am using vBookie on my site, and instead of using the 'uttstorepoints' field in the 'user' table, I am using 'money'. If your using something other than 'uttstorepoints', make sure you edit the 2 lines that contain 'uttstorepoints' to whatever you are using.
If you know what I mean! :ermm:

Any news on updating this for 3.5? :)

I think it really just needs a FEW lines (literally) of different code. I looked it over and most code inside of the installer and the actual hangman file can remain as is.. Just needs some permission work done or something.. Anyone? :)
