I'm having a problem with this hack.

I've installed it all, and everything works bar the game on the template.
The page loads, but the .swf file embedded just stays a black square.

You can find the problem: http://www.fivestarsplash.com/vb/pro...s=&action=main

While looking in the HTML, I found this code:

Should these not be:
I don't know how to change that in the template, since it's all included in the $gamecode parameter.


Any help would be genuinely appreciated.

Did you run the install file to add the new tables to the db?

My score will not reset. Is there something im doing wrong?

S

yes of course, this file

ok I again all Templetes yesterday examined, but it still the same error indicated I think it lies to php's.

oh oh my englisch is not the best.

kann mich überhaupt einer verstehen, der Erwin glaube ich *hoff*

Sorry, what I meant was did you run the SQL file:

vbproarcade-beta2.sql

in phpmyadmin?

You need to do that to create the tables.

I have made, evenly also again, phpmyadmin said however it would be already there.

I can still write no comments and get this error *snief*

sorry Erwin;)

may I attach you my 5 Php's and you look times purely please?

greetz uwe

Still having this problem.

My control panel reset isn't working either, reset manually in phpmyadmin:

DELETE FROM arcadescores WHERE game='hexxagonFinal';

DELETE FROM arcadescores WHERE game='breakout';

DELETE FROM arcadescores WHERE game='game-name-here';

You can just delete as you have stated and the game scores will be gone and everything will still work ok?

Thanks!

Dan

Yeah I did that in the end, and all my scores started again from zero. Also I cleared the high scores in the admin control panel arcade bit just to make sure the crowns went to the right person.

Worked fine.

no ideas on how to restore this?

This is excellent!! Nothing but absolute praise to you ;)

I didn't manage to browse through 68 pages of responses, but I figured I'd post up my experience. Had no problems with installation. Only minor tweaks:

1) the .php and .swf files in the zip were all had permissions of 600, which meant the webserver couldn't deliver them. Once I chmod'ed 'em, they all worked.

2) The path to the swf files took a bit of working out. Maybe the admin description should indicate what the path is relative to. Also, starting a path with / typically means its coming off the root directory, which these clearly are not.

Very minor issues, but all else seems to be working well. Thanks for the great hack.

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone, in the mean time while futureal is working on the security issues +, has a temporary fix for the score redirect problem?

:cheeky:

this is a pretty cool hack.
but i found it a pain in the ass, to copy / paste 23 templates.

so i converted them all to files. and now you can add them with a few clicks (you need firefly's template backup system)

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=33072

the template files are attached to this post.
I hope this templates can be attached to the hack.
It saves some time adding them.

i've installed this hack for a client.
but there forum has a large base of mac users.

and after playing a game on a mac, it get's redirected to a wrong url.

instead of: www.url.com/forums/proarcade.php
it goes to: www.url.com/proarcade.php

it works fine on windows. how to solves this problem on a mac ?

Anyone have an idea for requiring a certain FLA path?
The village nuisance downloaded the FLA & racked up an impossible "94" in Hexxagon.
...and 99.999% likely to be reading this right now :p

Ok. im having a couple problems. #1 my descriptions are not there.

look at my arcade here

how can i fix that.


and also my games are taking forever to load. how can i fix that. is that my webserver? but my forum loads fast so i don't think thatts the problem. thanks!


becuase when i go to wcgateway.com/forums/games/breakout.swf it works just fine. why does it take forever to load when i click on teh link?

oh i fixed the problem. in the admin area the path to my games that was already there /games/ was wrong. it should have been games/ no / before it.

but my descriptsion are still not showing up. anyone know?

also one of my users is saying you must be registered and logged to play games is still showing up even when he is logged in
you can see that

any help appreciated thanks

Hi it seems that the hack with a mac goes to the main directory and it works differently in for PC users.

Since it looks for yourdomain.com/proarcade.php instaed of forums/proarcade.php

I added this PHP Redirect and put it in the / that gets the 404 - Now my mac users go back into the aracde and can play. The scores are high so I dont know if they actually get the high score screen. Since can't beat my users scores :(

I dont think that would work since even a low score can comment is there an action or little more some one could suggest to add to make the scoreboard / comments come up

anyway - put this where you need to put it and save it as proarcade.php

This simple redirect works :)

hi guys,

For some reason i cannot get the champion text to display in the postbit. I had it working before but then i upgraded my vbulletin to 2.2.3 and did a fresh install of the hack. Ive gone over the install again and checked to make sure i didnt do anything silly and made sure that $vpachamptext is in the postbit, but for some reason it's still not working :(

any help would be appreciated, thanks :)

NM got it working, silly me didnt upload the updated showthread.php file. Gosh I'm a dork sometimes

I've installed it on vB 2.2.9. Where are the king/user detail icons though in the zip file? I had to stick substitute images in.

One person tells me if they're using Opera they can play the game but their score isn't logged.

is lol

my descriptions are not showing up at http://wcgateway.com/forums/proarcade.php

i thought it would be easy to fix but i cannot find it. whats up?

Hmm, do you have $gamedescription in your vbproarcade_arcadebit template? Do you have $gametext in your vbproarcade_arcade_gamedesc_icon and vbproarcade_arcade_gamedesc_noicon templates? Those are the templates that deal with that. Also, check in the vBProArcade section in the admin cp, under 'Modify Games' as that is where you state what you want the description for each gameto be. Still, by default the descriptions should show.

As for problems my time looks buggered. Say I play a game then immediately look at my most recent game stats it shows up as 7 hours before.

This is probably my alltime favourite hack and with vb3 coming ever closer i was wondering if this hack will be made for Vb3

Where would I get more games anyway? I know about the URL in the templates to get to macromedia.com but I could use a file archive or something.

How do I reset the arcade scores I have currently?

i would like to know as well....how do i reset the scores? i tried defaulting them from my vb admin control panel but it appears to be doing nothing..all scores are still showing...any help is greatly appreciated...

thanks...

Manual score reset:

I just tried installing this on 2.3.0 and I get a white page everytime I enter the main arcade page. Any help out there?

Damn. I don't know what User Name and password to enter at the phpMyAdmin webpage. Do I use the one that I got on the Forums, or the one that I got with my vBulletin subscription?

Damn, I hate being a n00b.

EDIT: Got that taken care of, but where do I run the query?

this seems to be alittle more complicated than expected. Any way to get some easier more detailed instructions on how to reset the scores? And why even have the option there in proarcade to rest scores by vb admin control pannel if it doesnt work. Will this get corrected?

thanks
