No, I don't think you can. What are you so paranoid about? The store doesn't require anything I'd call sensitive information.

That is good, will try it tommorow :D

You need to go into your AdminCP and set the individual usergroups so that they all have permission to view/access the arcade.

Then go to www.v3arcade.com and make sure your license is verified.

It doesn't matter what you would call sensitive. That's up to each individual. I for one manage a private website and do not which to disclose my renamed admincp or the website.

Oh well. Guess I wont be registering there since I wont be allowed to keep my private information private and still download games. Thanks.

anyone else having problems with the games loading? they dont load for me... just plain white

Lol, asking for a URL is now a privacy invasion. That's a new one.

Entering in the AdminCP link is optional, it is not mandatory.

Lol, not understanding things is even funnier.

i guess for some people ignorance is bliss when it comes to security.

i personally also found it to be very odd that they were asking for user's admincp directories so they could 'redirect' people right back to their own admin panels (if an admin cant do this for themselves they shouldnt be an admin)

also while it is considered to be optional they also mention that if you dont give them this information then functionality will be impaired.

Not trying to be mean, but someone knowing your admincp directory has nothing to do with security. I can't believe people still think that.

If you don't want to use the store, that's fine. It's cool, but the hack works just peachy without it. There are plenty of other things to complain about.

Ok guys some1 helped me out earlier but then well i went 2 sleep :D

My problem of getting a BLANK page when i goto arcade.php
Ive installed a fresh database and did the modifications on the default theme of vb
Didnt add anything to it pure clean vb install ...
Still i get the blank screen :( .. Even turned on that wait time option from php.ini.
NOthing happening.. Please kindly Help .. Thankyou
Or maybe its bec this requires a specific version of php or mysql 2 run on huh ?... ( of which i have the latest of 2005 June )

According to vBulletin, you are incorrect.
Here are a few entries out of many:



Thats all i am going to add as I do not wish to further derail this thread

Still wondering if arcade templates will be grouped together instead of being listed by default? They take up a lot of space. :(

A new Hack of The Month of vBulletin.Org
I think.

thanks! Got it!

Exactly Moparx. Some people just dont understand that's sensitive info. Not even Jelsoft knows my admincp directory since I intentionally disabled the phone home mechanism. Im sure as hell not goint to give it to a 3rd party site.

Hi,

I got this error with certain games that I try to import (IBPro games):
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in \admincp\arcadeadmin.php on line 728.

They work in ibpro as a charm.

Vbulletin 3.5.0

Thanks for any help!

A few additions that would be nice;

• Ability to disable categories.
• Usergroup settings for minimum posts/reputation etc
• Pruning of scores over a certain age (preferably automatic).
• Ability to import zipped v3 games (similar to importing tar games).

:)

weve installed the v3 product-v3arcade.xml as a new product with no errors. however looking at the database there doesnt seem to be any new tables appended with arcade ... in fact theres no reference to arcade in any of the table names



when i click unistall the product i get :



Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0 Release Candidate 2:



Invalid SQL:

ALTER TABLE arcade_games DROP isreverse;



MySQL Error : Table 'mydatabase.arcade_games' doesn't exist

Error Number : 1146



anyone any ideas ?

Upgrade to 3.5.1 would probably be the first suggestion - you still seem to be on RC2. :)

I have same problem with VB 3.5.1 :ermm:

This worked great..... Now if all names are made live for challenges -- not just Forum posts but especially names appearing in the arcade, where everyone who shows up is a game player -- my life will be complete. (Ok I have no life :ermm: )

A lot of us had this problem. The XML doesn't seem to be adding the necessary tables sometimes.

If you have access to phpmyadmin on your server you can add the tables manually

http://www.v3arcade.com/forums/showt...p?t=578&page=2 for more info.

it is:
still funky. and that's my legacy postbit template.





and some of you that are +++++ing about the admincp directory, here is your answer:

it is to ensure that the games being installed ARE LEGAL through John's site to cover his 6. if you don't like it, use IB.

again, nobody's holding a gun to your head to use this. John is only covering his 6 so he doesn't go through that legal junk again. I suggest you use IB or write your own if it's that much of an issue with you...

If I recall correctly, the directory name is just there to tell you where to do things. You can probably give it a bogus directory name and just adapt the instructions yourself.

I'll be released in a few hours. :)

It's already in the next version.

What new release are you talking about here?

The next release (1.0.1) comes with a detailed database structure included in the product XML file. When you upgrade the Arcade it checks to see what the database structure should be looking like, and compares it with what is actually there. It's a failsafe way of making 100% sure that your database structure is exactly how it should be after upgrading.

Nearly all of the errors and bugs that people were experiencing seemed to be because of database errors caused by missing tables and fields. (I have no idea why some people were affected and others didn't have any problems, since everyone has been using the same code.) The next release should fix most of these problems.

not to mention that some folks hack the crap out of their forums...
