You haven't uploaded flash.php to that directory.

http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71/forum/flash.php

doesn't work. So of course your URL doesn't work.

Erwin:

Just to let you know.... I just deleted everything from my .htaccess file, and just left the Re-write files and the Permanent Redirect...

Now the games work! ;)

Strange... I had nothing to cause that, but since I had to edit it for other reason, I decided to delete some lines...and it worked.

(Just wondering...did you received my PM?)

hey i have another question now, i got the link, finally, on the forumhome and when people click play tetris, tetris wont load. is there anything else i have to do besides upload flash.php and add the 2 templates and upload tetris.swf.. is there anything else i need to do besides that? again i added the link to the forumhome but the game wont load.

Post the URL to your site, and let me take a look.

<a href="http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71/forum" target="_blank">http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71/forum</a> there

Try this:

http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71...hp?play=tetris

Remember, if the filename is with a capital letter, the URL must reflect that:

http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71...hp?play=Tetris

Try both and see. :) Should work. Make your the tetris.swf file is in the same directory as the flash.php file.

thats not my problem man, im saying the link works, its just tetris wont load... the flash box comes up and it shows the loading thing on there and a blank screen where the tetris game should be.. tetris the game itself wont load.

edit: and tetris.swf is in the same directory as forum:(

The tetris game loads up for me no problems on your server. The file IS there.

Give me a test account to log onto on your forums - just a normal member one - I can't test it as the flash player only works for members.

ok i set up the account username: test account password: testy

You're right, the file is there, but it's not showing up. The path is wrong somewhere.

Okay, make sure you are using the "flash" template as it is without any change from the ZIP file.

If that's so, go into your Admin CP, vBulletin Options, and make sure the forum directory is set to:

http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71/forum

It should work then.

Worse comes to worse, go into your "flash" template, and replace $bburl with

http://ensim.ionhosting.com/~admin71/forum

- do this in BOTH places in the "flash" template. It will work.

hey erwin, thanx alot! i did what u said and it worked! :)

So did anyone manage to get a forum leaderboard working with this hack?

To get a leaderboard going, you need to modify the Flash games themselves, which is not possible with most of them as they are not public domain. You cannot modify Flash games that are not public domain. And if you can't modify them, you can't have a leaderboard. This has been repeated throughout this thread. :)

Ah, I see, thanks for the reply. I do try and read around topics before asking questions, but with 28 page long threads it's easy to miss important info. I noticed there's a vB Arcade hack which allows you to have a scoreboard, but it's still in the beta stage and needs a spare three weeks to get it installed. Oh well... :D

Is it possible for this hack and the vbArcade hack to be installed on the same board without any problems? Or has anyone tested these 2 together. Reason I'm asking is, I'd like to run the other one for the leaderboard, and run this one for SWF Movies, and other games....

Yes. They both work fine together. :)

Probably one of my most used hacks
since everythings going vb3 soon
i was wonderin if this hack would be released on vb3 when its out i mean

Finally got around to installing this ...

hello,

the games in the first contribution (are there attached) one do highscore have in the forum are indicated (in the games-overview)? - if a member a game of it plays.

#andi

PS: is this the final version, or gives a newer version? (more games...?!)

Would it be possible to be able to link the flash media from another source other than your forum root as I want to put the flash on my personal server and then use it for the hack so is it possible

No, I wil not be releasing that version since it has the potential to be abused by leeching SWF from other servers eg. other sites linking to games on your own server thus using your bandwidth. Obviously, you are free to modify it to do just that, but I won't be modifying it to do this myself.

Ah Darn think you could PM me with how to do it if not thats cool, I'll figure it out someway or another

Hi,

After 30 pages there still isn't a highscorelist? How very disappointing.

:disappointed:

Be prepared to be disappointed forever, because you cannot have a highscorelist without modifying the flash game files themselves, and you can't do thet as the flash games are copyright.

Is it possible to play shockwave movies with this?

Flash movies are .SWF - shock wave format. :) (or whatever it stands for).

Ok because I was looking for this interactive Q3 shockwave movie but I couldnt find it anywhere my members are demanding it :cry:

Invalid attachment specified...

Fixed. :)

I love asteroids, but asteroids2000 is just
awful, everything is moving so fast, you
are lucky to last 5-10 seconds in the game,
before you really starts, GAME OVER.

Just my thoughts.

Will this hack work with vb3?

No, but I can release a vB3 version. I'll do one possibly tomorrow...

Hey ....This looks like a cool hack! I am very new at this, do you think you could tell me how to create the 2 templates this calls for?

I can handle adding the php file to make this work, but am unsure on the templates.

Thanks
