(split) IPB pro arcade development

[MrZeropage]

YES - as I told before, I am currenty re-doing the whole AdminCP-Section of this hack so that there is no more need of those IPB-files. And it will even look more integrated to vBulletin as it uses the same ACP-style now ;)

So work is in progress, after finishing I will release this new, legal version of ibProArcade which also contains all past security-fixes, almost all AddOns and alot of bugfixes - so stay tuned for some days and wait for my release, where I (of course) got permission from Chris (author of ibProArcade) to release my version when finished

[Snake]

Oh so you're the one who's porting the hack to vBulletin and not strmike or Chris huh? That's cool. Does that mean you'll be converting v3.0 to vB as well?

[MrZeropage]

Chris and some others did the original port to vBulletin of ibProArcade by wrapping everything around so that the code still thinks it is an Invision-Board. They just "translated" the variables.

I was involved in the conversion and had contact to Chris to help out with some things, that's why I am administrator at ibproarcade-vb.com but the main work was not done by me.


Now I took that vBulletin-Version of ibProArcade some time ago, fixed the security-bugs and alot of other bugs and malfunctions to make this arcade fit my personal taste of a "perfect" hack. I improved the style alot, included most AddOns (AllMods from stlmike) and finally made one complete version which automatically detects wheather it's vBulletin 3.0.x or 3.5.0 and sets all necesarry variables in a correct way. This is working for about 2 weeks now and means that upgrading to vBulletin 3.5.0 just needs to import and active one single plugin and the ibProArcade continues its work in your forum :)

Now that this license-problem came up (two php-files in AdminCP are from the original Invision-Board) I had to stop my planned of my ibProArcade release last week and started re-coding the whole AdminCP-script for the ibProArcade. After finishing this I can (finally) release it and thus bring up a legal, complete, extended and bugfixed version of ibProArcade for vBulletin *proud*

Chris already gave his permission to release it (thx!) so just five me some more days to work on the AdminCP-script.


For all german users one more good news: this ibProArcade-Release will contain a complete german translation




About ibProArcade 3.0: I personally won't start converting this to vBulletin, I think Chris can do this much quicker. But if you compare v3.0 to my upcoming version it already has alot (maybe all ?) feature of v3.0 so I think there will be no need to quickly upgrade... But time will see ;)

[micheal332001]

Hi there

Will you put the port in for the pnflashgames in as well as thats a good place to get free and payed for games from.
Also this dose not refreash the page all the time as the scores are saved with a componnent in the game its self.
The reason i ask is i make games for pnflashgames and i have now moved to vbulletin and would like to be able to enclude these games too.
I have been trying to put the pnflashgames hack in for the IPB but im not that good with php at the mo. Also i have alot of other things on the go.

Please put this in too as its a very good port many thanks

Mike

[MrZeropage]

Yes, that pnFlashGames-Code is included but yet not tested as I got no game of this type. Maybe you can send me one of that games for testing :)

[yoyoyoyo]

I'm glad to hear that. So in other words, you will be releasing your version of ibProArcade for both vBulletin versions: v3.0.x and v3.5.x?

Because most of the people out there are going nuts about v3.5.

[MrZeropage]

Yes, you all can stop having trouble - my release will provide an automatical detection of vB 3.0.x and 3.5.0 and make everything work :)

[loonytune15]

looking forward to this release, just one question, what if we already have the IPB version of the arcade installed, will there be an upgrade version available?

[MrZeropage]

You just have to replace all the files and do some additional queries - thanks for that tip, maybe I will include some "DB updater" that alters the tables the way they are needed

[amykhar]

why not just make it a product? Then you don't have to do an install script. ;)

[Snake]

Yeah I agree with amy. Also it could be a lot easier to install / uninstall especially for the new people in here. ;)

[MrZeropage]

Because ibProArcade does all bring its own file with it and the installscript just does the SQL-commands. To make one version for vBulletin 3.0.x and 3.5.0 it is most simple to keep this all the same :)

I don't want to hesitate too long with the release, but I will take a look on the possibility to make a "product"

[Revan]

why not just make it a product? Then you don't have to do an install script. ;)Then again, I doubt a product XML file will be parseable by 3.0.x, which he already stated the hack should be compatible with.

[MrZeropage]

3.0.x won't interpret this XML so it may reside there without any effect. The installscript will sure be there for 3.0.x

I will look what is the best way :)

[Snort_2005]

looking forward to this release, just one question, what if we already have the IPB version of the arcade installed, will there be an upgrade version available?

Question. What if we had the old vB 3.0.X version already installed before we upgraded to 3.5.X? I would really like to know. o_o Is there gonna be an update script so we can keep our scores and settings? O_o;

[MrZeropage]

As there are several 3.0.x versions around (stlmike did some "AllMod"-versions and spread them via ibproarcade-vb) you have to make sure that all db-tables for my extended version are existing... I will see if I can do some "db updater" for it.

If using my upcoming version of ibProArcade you can easily move from 3.0.x to 3.5.0 later as there is just little work to do (insert one plugin) and everything continues its work

I did not have an "allMod" version on my forum. :| Does that mean that you may need to make several db update scripts?

[MrZeropage]

No, thanks for the tip - I will adapt the installationscript to detect if there are several tables existing and thus it will make sure to put everything in the right place.

Please do me a favour and send me information about your database-structure concerning the arcade-tables - I am waiting for your PM to compare :) Thx!

[MrZeropage]

Thx, will have a look on this to implement easy conversion

[Walim]

why u dont add some feature in v3Arcade that not in IPProArcade i have see such Thread in IBProarcade poeple Asking the same feature.. but i dont think they have plan to add them this is why i dont bother my self from the beggeing to install IPBProArcade i use V3Arcade because it have 2 Feature that people crazy
1-whatever user beat other it will send them email infrom them.
2-1v1

[Snort_2005]

Thx, will have a look on this to implement easy conversion

Guess all I can do now, is wait. >_>

[jbd]

Looking forward to this hack! Will install on GamesForum.com once done :)

[MrZeropage]

@walim:
Maybe this is done via PM that should be just some more lines of code ... I'll see :)
For 1on1 there is the tournament included, which can be with 2, 4 or 8 players.


Thanks for all your patience, I will push on this project, just wait ...

[jbd]

I have heard that, due to the new plugins system, hacks created for vb3.5 will not have to be re-hacked after upgrading to newer versions of vbulletin. This is one of the main advantages of vb3.5 compared to earlier versions of vbulletin.

I'm wondering if your ibproarcade hack would work in this way?

Thanks in advance -
James

[MrZeropage]

I don't understand your question.
Yes, if any modification/hack makes 100% use of the plugin-system and do not need to alter any php-file, you can easily upgrade from 3.5.0 to 3.5.x
This of course is the way ibProArcade will use, too :)

But there is also one good thing - even migrating from 3.0.x to 3.5.0 does not need any re-hacking, you just need to import the suitable plugin and activate it, that's all.


Hope I grab your intention, otherwise please ask again :)

That's one reason why all the hacks I installed on my forum only uses the plugin system.. (other than vbadvanced content management system. :|)

[Paul M]

Not all hacks can be done via plugins, it's just not possible.

[jbd]

this is very good news though, if this can be done as a plugin, that's just amazing! Nice one, can't wait to see it.

[loonytune15]

Half the community is waiting on it, we all hope it will work and work well :D

[Wordplay]

i double that statement, any update on how much longer this hack will appoximately take? i've got +8,000 hungry members waiting for it.

[Snort_2005]

i double that statement, any update on how much longer this hack will appoximately take? i've got +8,000 hungry members waiting for it.

I wanna know as well. When will it be done?

[MrZeropage]

I finished the ACP about 40% and even added the feature "send PM on beaten highscore" to it.

After ACP is finished I will check for upgrade-possibility for existing ibPA-installations to my "extended version", and then I will release it.

I hope everything will be done within the next 14 days ...

[jugo]

Mr Zero...You are a GODSENT!!!

I have upgraded to vb3.5 and my users are begging me for an arcade...you will be their salvation.

[TTG]

I installed the ibProArcade v2.5.1 on vbulletin 3.5.0 when we were using RC1 .. upgraded now to RC3 and the Arcade is still working well.
Will there be any advantages in upgrading to this new version ?

My arcade (http://www.techguyscafe.com/forum/arcade.php)

[tteal]

Can't wait to see the finished product.....

[MrZeropage]

@TTG:
Yes, there will be, as I fixed all security-bugs found yet and even did some more bugfixing and improvement. Just wait for my version and you'll see :D

[tteal]

Anxiously awaiting release of this for vbulletin 3.5 :ninja:

[RaceJunkie]

This is great news. Does this mean we will have a arcade that we can get som support also. I have had a terrible time getting any from the ibPro vB support forum..

[MissKalunji]

Im a currently with v3arcade will there be a converter? or will i have to just delete the whole arcade?

and i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!! thats the only hack im waitig on the port over!!!

Thanks for your hard work!

[Boofo]

@TTG:
Yes, there will be, as I fixed all security-bugs found yet and even did some more bugfixing and improvement. Just wait for my version and you'll see :D

Well, let me know when you are ready to release it and I will start converting (only legal) games again. ;)

[RaceJunkie]

Well, let me know when you are ready to release it and I will start converting (only legal) games again. ;)

That's what I need to know also. I have seen this discussed someplace.. How do i know what games are legal?

[Boofo]

If the author has given permission to convert the games, they are legal. There are listings of authors who will not give permissison and those games are illegal.

The rule of thumb is, if you want a game converted, email the author and get his/her permission first, and then we can convert it. ;)

Do you have a list or link of? I would not want to upset anyone, besides I don't need any legal issues with my site.. :tired:

[Snake]

Any news or updates Zero?

[kylek]

Will the new one have the ability to play game in new window, or adjustable pop up window ?(can't remember if it was part of the all mods), looking forward to this big time!!!!

[Snort_2005]

I think the original IBProarcade for vB also allowed both IBPro games as well as v3 arcade games.. But I don't know about this version. Will it be the same? :|

EDIT: Btw, How is the status updates? Anything new?

[Vizionz]

cant wait for this release thanks for doing it

[MissKalunji]

whats the diff rom this one and the other version?

[ibProArcade]

I wanted to personally thank MrZeropage for taking the time to update and modify this hack so that it may live on in the vB realm. :D I was worried that I'd never have time to make the proper modifications to the ACP so that it could be released here!

EDIT: Btw, How is the status updates? Anything new?

I'm sure it will. I doubt MrZeropage would take that functionality out. :D

whats the diff rom this one and the other version?

Bugfixes, some new functionality from modifications posted by other authors, and it'll use vBulletin's AdminCP so it's completely legal.

ohhh the other one wasnt legal? so its pointless for me to install the old one then? might as well wait?

[MrZeropage]

The original port to vBulletin was not completely legal as it made use of two php-files from the original InvisionBoard-AdminCP.

This is why I am completely redoing the ACP, completely integrated in vBulletin and its style :)


Of course ibProArcade did not loss any feature and even got improved alot, e.g. most AddOns are already implemented, bugs got fixed ect.

Yes, you can play in PopUp-Windows as an option
Yes, both v3arcade and ibPA-Games will work
Yes, even PNFlashGames should work (have none to test)

Just be patient, it will be worth it :)


ACP is abouot 65% finished yet, will continue ...

[micheal332001]

[QUOTE=MrZeropage]

I have games iv made for pnflashgames you can use to test this on.
I also have a lisenced game i have made if you want to try the lisence out too.

PM me and let me know.

[soniceffect]

I have a question about this release .. I and I know many other users will not use ibpro if they are using the ucash system as it does not incorporate it ... This is the only single reason I use V3arcade .... I personally think IBPro is a much better hack, but am reluctant to use it without the current points system my members enjoy

So how easy is it to make pay-per-play .. jackpot for win on ibpro?

[MrZeropage]

This should be tested, I am somehow sure this is not too difficult to implement, but now I will focus on releasing that legal combi-version for both vB 3.0.x and 3.5.0

I think "UShop integration" will be a nice AddOn for it :)

<<< Sitting back with a six pack chilling till it's ready .....

Hmmm,... Me got lot's off six pack's just in case......he he

[dieselpowered]

Does anyone have the original zip for this hack?

I need to uninstall it and need to revert all the changes to the db and whatnot.

Thanks!

[PtP]

Just recently cleaned it up myself, database tables that are created are:

ibf_games_scores
ibf_games_list
ibf_games_settings
ibf_games_cats
ibf_tournament_players
ibf_tournaments
ibf_games_champs
ibf_badwords
ibf_macro

The race for the first 3.5 arcade is on :)

[MrZeropage]

I am racing ...

[bonnmac]

zeropage don't let them rush you take your time and do it right we'll be happier to install a bugfree version rather than a problem version so relax

you done yet lol just joking

yeah just approximately how much longer? i'm just curious.

[MrZeropage]

the new ACP is finished about 85% right now and grows each day.

Everything else should be OK, the only thing I want to implement is that feature "PM on beaten highscore" which is about 50% done.

I think before giving out the final release I will call for some Testers who want the "RC1" to make a final test for some days, but we'll see ...

I think it is realistic to say that it will be finished and released within the next 2 weeks, maybe even quicker

currently i have the old arcade running the one that got removed a few weeks is there gon be an update script?

I'm running the old one too, but I can't admin because there was no instructions on how to add to the admincp on install for VB3.5Gold :disappointed:

[Wordplay]

wow didn't know about that. i never worked with ipb before, but herd it featured more. how about the new versions? which one do you guys believe will be better?

[MrZeropage]

Here is a screenshot of what this "new" ibProArcade will look like (see attachment of this post).

Just to point out some of the feature it will bring along:


support for both v3arcade and ibProArcade games
support for PNflashgames
Tournaments (2,4,8 players)
Leaderboard (e.g. 10 Points for 1st rank, 9 Points for 2nd rank ect.)
personal Arcade-settings per user
personal statistics per user
Arcade ModCP f?r Arcade-Moderators
Games can marked as "favorite" to be shown on "favorites page"
Sort your games in categories
custom game sorting
Rate your games (1-5 stars)
each game stores multiple information:

times played
time played
actual highscore
best highscore ever
your personal highscore

integrated "who is online" on Arcade-pages
Arcade-access can be set up per usergroup-permission
Arcade-access can be set up per user
Setup per usergroup:

how many total posts to play
how many posts per day to play
how many games to play per day

ban IP-addresses from the Arcade
full AdminCP-Integration
In addition it will come along with both language-files for english and german, and of course everything got phrased to use this language-files (the original ibPA-hack was mostly hardcoded text, this got fixed).


You even won't need to do multiple changes to PHP-files or Templates, installation is that easy.


But enough for now, be sure it is absolutely worth to wait for ibProArcade !

There even won't be any "premium support" or something like that, games are available for free...

I just need to finish one single option in the AdminCP, so stay tuned for the release of that fantastic ibProArcade-Release :)

[Snake]

Ah that is sweet but it looks crowded man.

I hope it will be released this weekend of perhaps tomorrow. :D

[Feckie (Roger)]

I think that it's looking great........

[Huijting]

Looking great and can't wait :squareeyed:

[MrZeropage]

It will support different Skins with single skin-files, so that it is somehow easy to adapt to a personal style with (if wanted) less information, e.g. a "v3arcade"-style ...

I will continue pushing the work on it and hope to finish everything very soon, stay tuned

[Gemma]

Looking good MrZeropage :)

Gemma

[beacher]

looks very very good!! -Thanks for your work Mrzeropage ;)

[Ski-Whiz]

This is a HUGE under taking! I'm sure EVERYONE appreciates it!

I know I do! I never would have thought a single hack would keep me from upgrading to 3.5, but this hack is the baby I'm waiting for!

This is not just a 3.5 ported version, it's a complete rewrite! So EVERY VB user will appreciate this!

Thanks for your hard work, and I look forward to installing this on my site, when I upgrade!

[Wordplay]

it really does look amazing!

the only problem is my schedule... i'll have to go with which ever board comes out sooner. so i'm hoping ipb comes out soon.

[Feckie (Roger)]

Well I'm Prepared To Wait For This To Be Finished...
After All It's Going To Be Able To Play All types Off Games... :banana:

[Gemma]

Will the Improved Tar install* and Install All Tars be implemented in this release (or will we need to install the code ourselves)?

*This is required for some of the newer converted games

[dreck]

It will support different Skins with single skin-files, so that it is somehow easy to adapt to a personal style with (if wanted) less information, e.g. a "v3arcade"-style ...

[Snake]

Patience is virtue. *whistles* :nervous:

[tteal]

Love arcade long time? LOL

[Boofo]

All your arcade are belong to us! ;)

[Feckie (Roger)]

Hey MrZeropage is it ready yet,................ is it ready yet...................lmbo :nervous:

[Coleccromos]

jajaja
easy man.
he must work in the ibpro 3.5 gold,

[quetion] its posible to put the Announcements? (bb code) [MOD] Add Arcade Announcement's

i waiting for this wonderfull hack

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZz

[kylek]

Any update on how it is going? please,,,,,,,,

[MrZeropage]

[quetion] its posible to put the Announcements? (bb code) [MOD] Add Arcade Announcement'sYes, this is included :)



I think it is finished, I will start spreading first versions of this "ibProArcade RC1" to some beta-testers to check if really everything is OK and works as it is ment to be.

Today I will finalize the languagefile and then start betatesting, stay tuned

[Colejo]

:woohoo:

[TTG]

There is an alternative in development .. :)

MMmm .. $60

v3 Arcade (http://www.v3arcade.com/forums/index.php)

[MrZeropage]

Yeah, but it has less feature and you will have to pay 60$ for "premium services" ;)

v3arcade was dead for a long time, so no need to promote any other alternative to the upcoming ibProArcade here !

[Gemma]

Yes, this is included :)

Good work MrZeropage :)

[Boofo]

MMmm .. $60

v3 Arcade (http://www.v3arcade.com/forums/index.php)

You might want to note that that is the yearly fee, not a one time fee as was originally thought by many.

[MrZeropage]

This is heavy - 60$ is far too much for an Arcade-Hack, I guess John just waited for a chance that there is no use of his old v3arcade-Hack, and this chance came up with vBulletin 3.5.0
He might have thought to have the only Arcade-Hack then so most users had no chance to avoid buying/licensing his new Arcade-Hack, that's the reason for that high price...

But be sure - i a few days after releasing the new ibProArcade he surely has to fight for each customer and give god reasons for paying 60$ while this (better?) ibProArcade is for free ;)


Of course everybody should feel free to make his own decision which is the right Arcade-Hack for your personal interests, just make sure to give the new ibProArcade the chance it deserves :)

[PtP]

As much as I agree $60 is just plain ridicules for a arcade hack you must put it in perspective, the v3arcade hack is free, the $60 is for anyone wanting their arcade branding free and getting early betas of versions and of course more pesonalised support.

BTW I will be using this arcade as I think it will be a superiour product. ;)

[TTG]

You might want to note that that is the yearly fee, not a one time fee as was originally thought by many.

Concerning those who have purchased the "branding free" option, or those who plan to.

Although when you subscribed/subscribe to the branding free option it's a 1 year subscription, I've decided to extend this indefinitely. So although it says 1 year, it won't expire - support will be available as and when you need it, as will the other additional content.

I have to say, I'm awaiting the release of MrZeropage's release and trust there will be an upgrade for users of ibProArcade v2.5.1 which has been working fine for me since 3.5.0 RC1

[micheal332001]

I think this hack will be better than the v3arcade as you will be able to use ibp pro games v3arcade games and the pnfg's games.
With the option of having all these games make's this the better arcade as there will be over 4000 to 5000 games avalible where as avarcade can only use the v3arcade games.
I do like the new look of the v3arcade but i also think the look for this arcade is very nice too.
So for me i will be installing this arcade as i have alot of pnfg's games.
I also make games for pnfg's and you can also buy multiplayer games from pnfg's.
Witch makes this the better arcade in the whole.

[Wordplay]

^-

actually v3arcade is also going to be able to play ipb games.

but i'm really hoping to go with this software. the only problem is still my schedule... could you please let me know approximately how far the release is still away?

1-3 days, 5-a week, a week to two week.

please!

Just happen to be the No:1 Beta Tester In Ireland.....Hmmm

So Can....................

[MrZeropage]

I just started spreading the "ibProArcade RC1" a few minutes ago to some Testers, but in the first step only to german Testers at www.vbhacks-germany.com
The reason is that I need to do the english install-instructions and the left menu in the AdminCP for the ibProArcade is still german while everything else is "multi-language" (you can choose in the Arcade-Settings which languagefile should be used, english or german).

Wait some more, right after finishing all language-things I will also provide a testversion to some english Testers here at vbulletin.org !


I think after getting first reactions about the RC1 I could have a slight vision of the release-date, but be sure it's not that far away :)

Then May I be Added To Your List Off English Beta Tester's ......ty

[Wordplay]

are you going to update the version (fix the german bugs reported) before releasing the english version?

if yes, i'd love to be added to your english testing crew.

if not, i'd love to join the german testing crew. as i'm desperately needing an arcade system, and would love to use ipb.

so if you think the beta can not really DAMAGE my ENTIRE system.

i'd love to test it!

[soniceffect]

Lookin good for the release I see :) .... hmm . which will I be using? IBpro/V3? Think I`ll test em both once released :)

[nitro]

I would be more than happy to help testing the eng version to update my dev install which currently has the old IBPro installed in vb 3.50 stable, it wont get hammered by users once installed as my dev install is at home, but my kids will play it some in between their new craze of gunzonline, and I will be around aswell looking at it as a serious contender to v3arcade which is what is currently installed on my live site. One thing it cannot do is break anything serious as its purely my dev install for testing stuff such as this, so a quick db restore is very easy and wont affect me in the slightest.
Of course I will also be following v3arcade new ver quite closely, I cannot place any guarantee on which will make it into the live site, all I know is both arcades are pretty damn impressive :)

[beacher]

if you want i'll be very happy to test it on my board ;)

[bonnmac]

ich würde lieben, das zu erproben, ich liebe neue Spielsachen, und Sie müssen mir Kredit geben, um das in greman lol zu bekommen

no when its out you'll find out trust me :)

[kylek]

I had ibpro up running on my site with lots of games installed, then lost it when vb went gold. have now tried the new v3arcade, but it is not the same. Can't wait to get the old favorite back where it belongs.

Gladly be a english tester on a live board.

[Snort_2005]

Also, when this does come back.. based on the sql I had given you. would I be able to get my scores and settings to return once I get this installed?

[MrZeropage]

Will check this out after releasing the next test-version coming (I think) tomorrow.
This one then is fully multilingual and will be available in english, too - I will start a separate request for some beta-testers then, so please resist to PM me tight now ;)

Tried v3arcade, not happy with it at all even in its beta stage, I really want to replace it by going back to IBPpro, what time period are we looking at for English version release? Sorry for pestering but I may proceed with restoring the old version of ibproarcade for 3.5.0. and then upgrade to your new version when its out.

It is looking very nice, also I don't know how ibproarcade is looking and what is the difference, thought there's only one of this arcade things out.
B.t.w., I don't know why it's not a public beta test, so many people are waiting for it ...

[Gemma]

Here is a list of IBProArcade's features

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=784280&postcount=81

I cannot comment much on vBarcade because it's in beta but the version I played on the v3arcade.com site had very little features that would prompt me to use it.

But I am sure both arcades will have their good and bad points.

I'm happy sticking wit IBPro though because I have modded the hell out of my vb 3.0.x version :D

I will select testers and contact them via PM and tell you all who got elected for testing - please do not PM me to ask for participating in the test, as this would disqualify you automatically ;)


I hope to find all last bugs with this test-period now so that RC3 is going to be the last test-version and then we can RELEASE ...

Got it running but with no mods to keep members happy.
Would be a fresh install.

IF it looks to be ok there then I would consider installing to test in the live site

Running as above but old v3arcade installed not ibPro. If you have an importer script built in id gladly backup that dbase and and the old as extra backup arcade tables seperatley and test either with or without import there.

you arent the only one, i got ignored too.

[MrZeropage]

Sorry, but testing with all of you won't make sense, then I could just release this unfinished Hack and wait for people saying "this is buggy, just use another one..."

This is why I want it to be finished first before you all get it - stay tuned, the testphase won't last too long ;)

[MissKalunji]

you arent the only one, i got ignored too.
soon we're all gon have it :) so no one is getting ignore :nervous:

[Ski-Whiz]

This negative attitude guys, is the reason people stop making great hacks.

So just rest assured that Zero is trying to put out a quality item, and is making GREAT progress.

How many people write hacks, and stay on top of them? Zero is in here just about everyday.

So just rest assured, this is a HUGE hack, and will benefit everyone! He's also doing this out of the kindness of his heart! So don't take this for granted. :D

Thanks Zero!!

[MrZeropage]

Thanks - yes, that is what I want, a QUALITY RELEASE that gets good reputation within the vBulletin-scene, not a "quick and dirty" adaption that is buggy and everybody will look around for alternatives ;)

So please wait some more time for the final release -> we already reaches RC2-state :)

[Snake]

Man I like your style, Zero. Real fresh! :D

[micheal332001]

MrZeropage

The look to this new arcade of yours is just great.
Also i have PM'ed you about the pnflashgame part.
As of bugs i have not come across any that i know of yet.
But i have seen you missed some thing lol in the admincp on add new game

you have this


Dezimalstellen
Lasse den Wert auf Null für ganze Zahlen


I think this should be some thing like this

How many Decimal places or some thing like that lol

[Ski-Whiz]

I can tell you this, if you have an older version of IBproarcade installed, you will have a hard time installing this new version, if you wish to keep the settings/data. I hate to do some editing of my saved SQL tables, and then re-import the data, in order to keep my high scores, game listings etc.. This is intended for a new/fresh install. Which, I'm guessing that most of you guys may still have some tables/fields remaining from an old ibproarcade install.

I had quite a lot of work to do to keep my data. So even if you don't have the 2.5.1 for vb running, there may be tables in your database, and fields that will give you trouble. So we are working on this, and we are providing him great input on how to make this hack easy for everyone!

Not trying to give you guys a hard time. It's just people who don't know how to edit their SQL tables and fields, will have a hard time with this RC2 version.

Great job so far Zero! It's up and running on 3.0.8, and looking forward the next version. :D
And I didn't lose any data.. :D

[micheal332001]

uploaded and running on 3.5 no problems on the install at all.
V3arcade games work fine and the ibp games work fine but the pnflashgames dont.
Im trying on my test site to find out why its not working.

[kylek]

Testers - MrZeropage asked in the original pm that all bugs, hints, or ideas be sent to him by pm, I am sure it is easier to keep track of them in one place and not here on the board. Not complaining but following his request.

Tell me what are pnflash games?

[micheal332001]

pnflashgames is a postnuke module for running a online arcade but uses the API to stor the scores.
If you would like to see the pnflashgames working goto my site here

http://www.michealmilton.com/index.php?module=pnFlashGames&func=main

and you will see the games i also make games for this some times when i have the time to make them lol.
I have made over 80 games for pnflashgames and i have payed for the pro games too. Pnflashgames also sell multiplayer games for your site so if this can use the pnflashgames it would be great as we would be able to have multiplayer games in a this arcade.

to get the pro games goto www.pnflashgames.com
here you can download free games pro games and there is lots more here too.
This is why i want this arcade to use pnflashgames ;)

Zero has all my issues. :D

I'm merely trying to state that people just need to understand that if they wish to have an easy install, patience is key. :D


The decimal issue when adding a game is a known bug. :D

I don't thing anyone is breaking any of his instructions.

[Wordplay]

skiwhiz, i didn't even mean it like that. i'm very well aware of just about everything you said, although i'm sure zero very much appreciates your mentioning. i never did have ipb installed on my site. i used to have v3 installed on my site for 3.0.7 and after killing off those tables, and upgrading to 3.5 i haven't had any arcade or my site. my members are bugging the heck out of me, i wouldn't mind supplying them with a (little-as it's already on rc2) buggy arcade, if i know it's the better choice for my site, which i believe it is. matter of fact i wouldn't have waited if i had known it would take another month from when zero said in maybe a week or so he'll get a release out. if i had known that much i would have just gone with the worser pick that being v3. just to please my members, my members dont know that theirs something better emerging, and people that only know so much wont mind. i just mind, cuz i wanted the best, but keeping them waiting is painful as hell.

and i'm not getting stressed here, or starting an uproar or anything, the only reason i'm saying what i'm saying right now is to let you know whats up cause you put it out there.

i do appreciate all of zero's hard work, and am very sure that he invests as much freetime in this project as he may have. the appreciation is there, and although i dont understand why he didn't put out rc2 for more testers (as i doubt testers would be complaining about a release)... i do respect his choice. i was just letting Coleccromos know that he isnt the only one dying to get his hands on this.

i hope this wont heat up the discussion, but rather just clear it up so we can all get back on topic and just wait for a stable release.

[Ski-Whiz]

Wordplay,

I didn't mean it to sound mean in any way. Some people here have really become upset and angry that coders don't do more for free. :D

Zero is a great contributor here. :D

I just tried to mention that patience is key. :D If you need to get an arcade up, you can get 2.5.1 working on 3.5. You can visit ibproarcade-vb.com. :D

Zero has made this worth waiting for. :D

[MrZeropage]

There are some (few) bugs found yet, I will fix them and maybe extend the amount of testers with the next RC3 which then should be (hopefully) the last RC-version before the final release

[Ramsesx]

Thank you zero, please do it quickly cauz we all get crazy for waiting for this great modification :rolleyes:
You're the no. 1

[Sooner95]

If you desperately need an arcade - visit www.ibproarcade-vb.com and read how to install arcade 2.5.1 on a vb 3.5 board - if you have any problems PM me.It only takes 2 file edits and a file replacement - or there is a fresh install option.

Let your users know it is a temporary measure until the final arcade is released (many of the database tables won't change - so you may be able to upgrade from 2.5.1 to this arcade flawlessly).

Beta testing of MrZ's arcade is going well from my point of view - a few bugs but they will be quashed come the final release :)

[MrZeropage]

I think you should not make use of this "old" ibProArcade 2.5.1 as its AdminCP contains illegal spread files from the original InvisionBoard-Installation.

So just wait some more days ;)

I have got it installed but only because there was nothing else at the time.

My members like to have the arcade.

[Kacela]

...So just wait some more days ;)I'm so eager for the release, I'm doing the peepee dance over here... :P I know it'll be worth the wait, I can see how hard your working on it. I and all my users thank you for doing this :) Make sure you add a PayPal link at some point for donations!

[micheal332001]

i think alot of people will be donating to this hack as its the best.
I know i will be donating some to this as he has worked so hard on it.
This is and will be a great hack to have on any vbulletin forum.

[MrZeropage]

I continue approaching RC3 with maybe some more "final testers", but will be offline for this weekend and develop offline on my notebook - see you all in about 48h :)

[Paul_Hollibone]

Well Zero, if your looking for some FINAL Testers, for rc3, I would be happily enough ti help out. The arcade hack has been everything for my site, and when VB3.5 came out, it meant I lost the arcade, and alot of peeps stopped comming as often as they were because of the hack.

So it would mean everything if I could get a hold of RC3 for this wonderful hack!

Vbulletin 3.5
PHP Verson 4.3.8

I would have applied for the original beta, but I was kinda on Holidays. Us Aussies love our Holidays.

[soniceffect]

How`s the beta testing goin?

[Snake]

I hope it's doing well...

[MrZeropage]

Everything is proceeding well, still fixing some bugs in RC2 to switch to RC3


BUT

there was something found by a friend of mine, whic makes me very angry, please see attached screenshot. Someone is spreading the beta-version of ibProArcade via Peer2Peer-Network "Emule" !! :mad: :mad: :mad:


I surely will continue finishing this hack, but this makes me very very sad. There are just 10 users from germany (vbhacks-germany.com) and 11 users here from vb.org who participate in this testphase, and I thought I selected them well. Seem as if someone wants to spoil that project, I don't know - please, if you have any information concerning that, let me know.

[MissKalunji]

that sucks :(

[MrZeropage]

Yes, it does - I am very upset about that, but think it is one of the german testers who did this, don't know why ...

But I will take a beer for now, enjoy a movie and relax to continue development tomorrow and ignore that nerd

ide ching ching to dat but i dont drink lol so i'll take a glass of milk :p

[soniceffect]

Bastards ...

Sorry but they are.....

Anyways, glad to see you are continueing with this project and not being detered by these idiots.

[Rover416]

That is wrong.

[MrZeropage]

...what is wrong ?

[soniceffect]

Think he`s refering to the spreading of files that is wrong m8

[Rover416]

Yep.

Sorry should have made myself clearer.looking forward to this release.

[Boofo]

Sorry to see that happen but it is inevitable. Too many people are getting too ansy waiting on a release. I had hoped to see this one beat v3Arcade on a release date.

[soniceffect]

To be honest, I was lookin at v3 arcade, and would like to test them both before decidin on which on to use, but I like the look of this one to begin with, so hoping this is a better release :) ....... Very much looking forward to it m8

[Ski-Whiz]

Well, the people grabbing that copy are just messing with their sites, and could possibly mess it up. As obivous NO support will be offered to them!

They just don't realize that if they don't know what their doing, they could crash their site. Not do permenant damage, just bring it down until someone helps them out. I'm referring to the fact if they have an old IBP arcade installed prior to this one..

I hate to see leaks!

[micheal332001]

I think anyone that downloads that file from there will have problems with it.
The reason i say this is the code might have been changed and could let in hackers to there site.
If it was me i would not download it as this is how hackers can get there code into your site and bring your site down with it.

If people just waited a bit longer im sure the release is not far away now.
Like mrzero said he is sorting out a few bugs in the arcade so anyone downloading that will have all the bugs that have been reported to mrzero.

[tteal]

Patiently waiting..............

[Sooner95]

as a RC2 tester, beleive he is working on it fellas. I for one have no problem waiting for a good product, the same for my members.

Yes, it does - I am very upset about that, but think it is one of the german testers who did this, don't know why ...

But I will take a beer for now, enjoy a movie and relax to continue development tomorrow and ignore that nerd


That is wrong, stupid too considering when there hosts update their PHP backend, they'll be screwed LOL... serves em right..

[MrZeropage]

RC3 just got spread to the testers, and I even added some more testers

I hope I fixed almost all bugs found yet ...

[WonderWorm]

Nice can't wait for the release. Thanks for taking the time to make it bug free for its initial release. :)

[Paul_Hollibone]

Can I ask MR ZERO, did you already have those testers chosen when you made the post on the page before, that you would be looking at some new testers, when I made my post?

[Omega Prime]

In case there's an extra spot or two left for testers, I don't mind checking this out ;)
