The MySQL is fine as far as it runs everything else that is thrown at it. MySQL version is 3.23.44.

Also, forgot to metion, I also have the missing graphics problem as described earlier in this thread and I am using safemode on. I have tried everything you have suggested but no joy but this is a minor thing.

New version looks good. How about having it so you can click on the members listed in the scoreboard etc. to see their profile, and will the profile show somewhere that they are a champion? Would be good...

Also, a recent comment from one of my members : Dunno if there's a fix or not?...

Just wondering its been awhile since a new version has been release :) my user are starting to want some new games :)

Any help for me?

JackG: Beta 2 will be out in a few days, might want to wait for it, Hopefully, it may fix your problem (weird one that is..) :)

I got a suggestion for the future, something like a tournament hack, intergrated with lesanes store...so like we could set a date, and run the tourney, then the winner gets money, and first and second gets part of the pot.

Great Sebastian, I appreciate your patience.
I have done this sort of thing many times before.
It's usually a pretty logical fix. But you know how
it goes sometimes :p

A future tournament thing is a good idea.

The hack is known to not work correctly with pre-7.0 Netscape versions, as well as Opera. This has nothing to do with the hack and everything to do with the way that the Flash plugin is able to integrate with those browsers. There may be ways around this, and that's something I will explore in the future.

JackG: You dropped the table? It certainly won't work then. If you are having problems with the allgames.sql file, you need to just enter the games data manually. It will work fine either way.

Who cares about netscape users - not meeeeeeeeeeee :)

Wow, this is incredible!! Love it.

Installed with little problems!

How many people are displayed on the Scoreboard?

Can we configure it just to show the Top 10?

so how is beta2 coming along? :)

Sorry for the newbie question, but how do I switch these two colors. I want the border to be in the body and the body color to be the borders color.

Attached is how it looks like now, I want to reverse it.

The arcade should use your forums colour scheme, if these colours are not working correctly then you might need to look at them again.

However, in answer to your question? How much do you know about HTML? If you are quite good at it when it's a simple case of re-arranging the {firstaltcolor } - {secondaltcolor } tags within the template (i dunno which one off the top of my head, sorry).

I hope this helps?

Thanks for your response bro.. For some reason it doesnt match my forum scheme.

Anyhow, i'm just okay at html etc. I snoop around and try to figure out what template to modify.

Any word on Beta 2?

cool hack..installed with 1 question:

the champion system - the current champ isnt showing up in the postbit..the radio box is checked to 'yes' for all the games in the proarcadeadmin.php -

it says that vbProArcade Champion System must be enabled - is there somewhere other than the proarcadeadmin.php to enable this?

Yep, in the general options for vbproarcade in the Admin control panel.

dooh..overlooked that..slap me why dont cha..

well its enabled there but still not showing up in the postbit...

i double checked all the template edits and ran the sql queries once again..still nadda..the thing that strikes me is that it is supposed to show up in the postbit right? No edits are required to be made to the postbit..??

no one gonna update this hack?
I havnt see any new stuff for a couple months...

mewgood I agree i would love to see an update and more games my members are really getting pretty good at the 5...

what code needs to go in fla files to add more games an make them work with the ranking system and I will try to make some more games

and so would I , I work in construction and now is the slow time of the year , I have plenty of time to sit around here doing this type of thing. I already have a slot machine .fla and a poker machine .fla , would love to have a casino integrated into this that would interact with our money system from lesane's store.

why the score icon and king icon dont show? and I upload them but nothing showing. why is that?

So whats the news about the next version and when are the fla files going to be out? Just wondering if anyone knows since I've been waiting and waiting lol. Would really like to make some new games too. :nervous:

I know, I lag.

As you can see on my site, it's very close to being ready. Just about every often-requested feature has been implemented. Mini Scoreboards, Text/Graphic King in the postbit, Usergroup Access Control, Fixed Top Scoreboard, etc.

The last thing I need to do is upgrade my forum to 2.2.9 so I can create an install log for the hack, as well as add one final planned feature (User Stat pages).

Well thats super, so would you say it would be ready in a week? Maybe 2? Or Next year? lol Just wondering beucase I don't know if I should install the hack or wait for the next version since I read somewhere that you would have the fla files there which I would like to change a few things such as taking off the music or adding a button to trun it off since I'm not all that fond of it before I open my new message board. Btw thanks for the quite reply.

Oh dear, I wonder if that means that it won't work on 2.2.6 :(

It should work fine on any 2.x vB install. The forum I am developing on has (so far) been 2.2.5 with a few of the security patches applied.

How about making smilies work in the comments section? That would make a nice addition!

Ok, I didn't read every single post in this thread, so I don't know if this has been asked yet...

I'm installing this on 2.2.9. I followed everything in the instructions and have went over the file edits twice now. What is happening is when I click on a game link, it just sits and hangs while trying to access proarcade.php to play the game...

Ok, I found the problem... In the Arcade Options, the path to games needs to be 'games/' not '/games/'. ;)

Anyone :bunny:

Thanks
Matthew

In proarcade.php, look for:

// set up vars for templates to grab
$lb_userid = $sb_loop[userid];
$lb_username = $sb_loop[username];
$lb_score = number_format($sb_loop[score]);
$lb_comment = $sb_loop[comment];

Change that last line to:

$lb_comment = bbcodeparse($sb_loop[comment]);

Then look for:

$lb_userid = $tsb_loop[userid];
$lb_username = $tsb_loop[username];
$lb_score = number_format($tsb_loop[maxscore]);
$lb_comment = $tsb_loop[comment];

And change the last line to:

$lb_comment = bbcodeparse($tsb_loop[comment]);

That will make vBcode and smilies work in the comments section.

Worked for vBcode but not for smilies?

It should work for smilies as well since they're part of vBcode. Are you sure the code for the smilie is right?

It didn't produce smilies for me either, sorry. (vb 2.8)

That's weird... I worked just fine for me and I don't see any other places in the script where it calls the comments, nor do I see any reason why that wouldn't work. The only thing I can suggest is to double check that you replaced that line and didn't add the code after it or something like that. If that doesn't work maybe Futureal can help. :)

Use this instead:
That should do the trick.

Hello!
It seems as though one member doesnt have permission to access the games. what might be causing this? Great hack by the way!

Thanks Link :) worked like a charm.

So, should anyone need to use the alternate way of incorporating smilies/vbcode in their high score lists..

In proarcade.php, look for:

$lb_comment = $sb_loop[comment];

Change the line to:

$lb_comment = bbcodeparse2($sb_loop[comment],1,1,1,1);

Then look for:

$lb_comment = $tsb_loop[comment];

And change that line to:

$lb_comment = bbcodeparse2($tsb_loop[comment],1,1,1,1);
