If you want to install v3arcade type games (zip format) or IPB type games (tar format) upload the said files to your admincp/games folder. Then in AdminCP>v3Arcade>Import Games> Choose the Mass Import option that coincides with what game type you uploaded and click Start. If you are installing games manually (already converted but not in zip or tar format), go to AdminCP>v3Arcade>Import Games>Manually Add Game and fill in the details For example- The .swf gets uploaded to your games folder and the two images (one 20*20px and one 50*50px) get uploaded to your images/arcade folder. Game Title: simple enough ie Pacman Description: blah blah blah Game System: you would need to know what type on conversion they were made for Shortname: pacman Game SWF File: ie pacman.swf Height: varies per game Width: as above Standard Thumbnail Image: ie pacman1.jpg Miniature Mode Thumbnail Image : ie pacman2.jpg Then fill in the last couple of details. For Mochi Games read through this post (parts 6 & 7) - http://www.v3arcade.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1934 Once you have set up your Mochi account, you have access to thousands of games and the install process is as easy as clicking a few buttons :) |

Great mod.
On high score, is it possible to shrink player image to fit within column space? Some player images are larger and ruin look. This runs very fast and smooth. Thanks again. |

Thanks for such amazingly quick response....

Would this be the code that also fixes that? I tried it and it doesnt seem to have an impact. Thanks! Doc |

Sorry I thought you meant on the highscores list :o
Open v3ARCADE_Main and find Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['avatar']"> Replace it with Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['avatar']"> |

I dumped all the old games I had that were in .rar format and now have 300 V3 games that are in the .zip format. I put them in the FORUMROOT/admincp/games folder but when I try to import them I get message saying "There are no more games to import".
So, can anyone help? |
@GaryT: Two major questions.... are you putting the zip files in that folder or the unzipped files? (See Gemma's post a few post back for game installation steps). The other thing is how old those files. The .php file should be a really small file with just a few variables in it; if it looks like the .php file that was posted earlier that was an actual install script then you'll have issues just like you would have with the .rar files.
|
Thanks, import went well.

Recommend putting that in configuration in next version |

Try editing your php.ini file settings to something like
max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB) Or, if you don't have access to your php.ini file, temporarily up your limits by editing your includes/config.php file and add this lines right under the <?php line: ini_set('memory_limit', 128 * 1024 * 1024); You may need to change the 128 to 256 or 512 See if that helps |

Can you elaborate about the XML file what to do with it? Thanks |
Quote:
Thanks |
Doctor Death you need to go through the xml file you downloaded from v3arcade and extract all the templates below
adv_portal_as_recent_gametable adv_portal_as_played_gametable adv_portal_as_popular_gametable adv_portal_as_champbits adv_portal_as_champstable adv_portal_as_random adv_portal_as_newsbits adv_portal_as_newstable adv_portal_as_scorebits adv_portal_as_scoretable adv_portal_arcadestats The information you want for each template is between the [CDATA[ brackets For example the adv_portal_arcadestats template would be extracted from the xml file by searching for the template Code:
<adv_portal_arcadestats><![CDATA[<div> Code:
<div> Then go to you AdminCP>vBulletinCMS>Widget Manager and make a new widget ie 'Arcade Stats' and copy the following code Code:
global $vbulletin, $bbcode, $parser, $path, $db; You can see the result on my site http://www.forumbanter.com It took about 10 minutes. I still need to go back and edit the templates to make them fall in line with the changes introduced in vb4.0.8 If you have any problems let me know and I'll post up each individual template over on v3arcade.com but I'm off to bed now. |
So, anyone have a collection of games yet? I have several hundred but they are out of date. Would it be wrong for members to trade games they have with other members?
I just need games, ever how I can get them :) |

Also all iBProArcade v32 converted games will run on the arcade - a simple google search should provide a list of sites |
Hey KW802, very nice mod and thanks for all your hard work. :)
I was having two issues. I lost my .tar files, so I am manuually uloading and adding them using the V3Arcade CP. - The game posts as it should and I can play it, but the images are missing (even though they are the proper folder) . - When I try to post a score (from the manually added games), I get a "Security token is missing" error. |
Brilliant..Thats all i can say.........How do i mass delete all agmes installed thoe?got over 400 games installed...and dnt fancy cliking delete 1 by 1......also kw....i sent you a forum pm:-)

My ibproArcade stopped saving games. I tried several fixes and they did not work. It worked during vb4.07 but not after I upgraded to vb4.08.
Will v3 Arcade save games? |
How the hell do you earn money from this?

Do you know if modsecurity is enabled on your server?

looks very promising, it's on the list of stuff I will look into. Sadly, that list of tagged items might be about 20 deep but it will get my look and try.
Good job. |

Ok, I found some my missing .tar game files and sucessfully imported them, but I am haing a few issues.
- If I beat a high score using one of the imported games, it will only posts the first score. Subsequent high scores do not post. - Also, when I manually "Add Game," the images do not appear (although I could workaround that by accessing the database), and the scores will not even attempt to post. What could I be doing wrong with the manual update? |
Are those manually installed games IPB v32 games?
If so can you make sure you have a folder called 'arcade' which has a subfolder called 'gamedata', they should have been created when you installed the arcade but the correct files may not be uploaded to these folders, when installing manually. IPB v32 games need a gamedata folder because of the way the scores are written. |
Thanks Gemma, I did have them in tyhe correct folder, but that wasn't the issue.
I have since dicovered that by changing the "isreverse" table in the db from "1" to "0" solved the scoring issue. All I have left is to figure out why the manually added games will not post scores. |
I'll go and manually add a game on my site and get back to you

Ok I've found a problem, hopefully it will solve your score errors for manual installs.
When installing manually there is a box above the game system drop down (iBPro, v3Arcade etc), on my system that box above is blank and doesn't have anything to tell you what should go in it. It should contain the Gamename Shortname (gname in IPB) which is the swf minus the .swf (see attachment). The shortname will always be the flash filename minus the swf extension. Can you try adding another game manually and see if it works? |

Thanks for your help... |
Hmmm, I am very impressed with what I have read so far. I will have to give this a try this weekend or sooner if possible. One question first, does it already work with any of the currency systems? I'm specifically using [DBTech] vBCredits II Deluxe. I did not notice anything about he current systems in the list of features, but I can be blind occasionally.
Thanks. |
I got so caught up in trying to work my issues that I almost forgot the most important thing ...and that was to say THANK YOU! This is a very, very nice mod...
I really like the ability you created to allow the user to increase the resolution of the game ...very nice touch :D |
Installed and playing around with it to see if i decide to change ove or not, having a few issues with not saving high scores, and the mochi scores too, but cant get on to v3a.com in work due to filters..
