i am planning to upgrade to vb3 gold and manage my hacks by using the HTL, and so i have a small question:

will there be a HTL version in the future?

well first you would evaluate by looking at the hack in the working style, its no where near as much as copy paste method of several templates to many styles,
would be a pain tho if you had a lotta lotta styles but under 10 is no real hardship.

im sure a multiple style option will get built in as many here have reported the same problem.

check my post above yours

It's not the standard style, the templates get added to whichever style you're using at the time of the installation. To install to another style, switch over to it and install the templates again.

I find it easier to make everything a child style and just install all of the templates to the single parent style.

I changed manually some of the templates...
If i Install the templates again (to add templates to new installed Styles) it will modify the already installed templates or just changes the styles without arcade's templates... ?
:ermm:

Small Suggestion: since there are more than 25 games available for V3 Arcade
(and growing) It would be nice to have "Game Categories" (sports, puzzle, classics, most popular, etc)

:)

this may have been asked and answered, if so sorry, but 112 pages of posts, I'm not gonna go through all of them.

Is there a way to reset the champions? I have the arcade on my site now and I reset the scores, but it still shows the champion icons by people's names

DigitalEclipse, run the Arcade cron script to update the champions.

Also, you can use the "search this thread" function to find the answers you need. The reason this thread is 112 pages long is because people don't bother doing a little research.

Edit: ^ Re: the above, I'm not talking about you - I don't think I've ever answered that question before. Just pointing out, most of the 112 pages are duplicate answers. :(

while that would appear to be true as it installed first time round to the selected style trying to install templates to different selected styles wasnt doing it hence my force method in the install script

wierd but still I got what i wanted its in all my active styles with relevant ease :)
No detrament to you or your hack its great, just keep the template install as the first step till you add style options, if you ever do ;) personally I think, tho theres a nice selection allready, more quality games is more important.

oh and how about the irc announce new champions idea, im sure it would be easy to implement, you could probly take the irc notify with eggdrop for vb2.x and hack that too work or get the base code method from it, I just dont have enough knowledge on php to make it. Got np installing well documented hacks like this one or even making minor changes to hacks to suit my purpose.

And to anyone having troubles installing this hack, the problem is more than likely install error with php editing than a bad installer script, except the style problem,
The instructions are clear and precise and works flawlessly here on vb3 gold
