the life up with the post O_O i'm at seven post with 81 of hp

I am not really a fan of RPG, but you have done a goo job looking from the previews.

Zajako:
I guess it is a good thing I don't drink ;)

jjdog2:
I'll be on AIM for a while today and most of the weekend. You are on my buddy list also.

Ninth Dimension:
That is correct, battles go on as long as possible and both combatants are NOT required to be online at the same time in order to fight. There are several ways a battle can end. If you kill the other player, then the battle ends. If you retreat from the battle, then the battle ends with you getting defeated (i.e. losing the wager). If you request a draw and the other player declines, then you cannot ask for another draw until after the other player requests a draw (and you decline his request). If you request a draw and the other player accepts, then the battle ends. If the other player is being extremeley stubborn, and you do not want to retreat and lose the money, then you can ask an admin to delete the battle from the admin control panel.

Kevorkian:
Look at the 'getpostbit' function of "functions.php" located in your admin directory. Search for code that is not tabbed over like the rest of the code (assuming you installed it with vbHacker). If you do not see code that is un-tabbed, then the install did not go as planned for some reason. Were there any errors in the installation? Also, did you update your stats in the user control panel? If you have not updated your stats or not selected an alignment/race/class/element etc. then you should get 0s for all of the values. At the moment, you are getting nothing (from what I can see). I have attached an image of an example postbit.

DrkFusion:
Thanks!

One thing I forgot to mention about the battle is that there is a built-in anti-grief mechanism. Whenever anyone challenges you, you will receive a PM explaining the terms of the battle. It will also include a link to the battle. When you click on that link (or the one on the battle browse page) you will be asked if you want to accept the challenge. If you decline the challenge, then the battle is over with no more input from you or the person that challenged you. This is in place because several of the level 21s on my forum thought it would be "funny" to challenge level 5s and kill them in one hit. Hence the term "anti-grief mechanism".


Here's the image, Kevorkian:

holy monkeysticks, it's finally happens *hides in fear*

well it looks nice so far, just to wait now for the billion rpg forums around the internet to install this hack

This looks quite nice

If i had a battle hack i dont want all this RPG stuff in it but thanks for sharing it with the community anyway :)

Looks interesting, would anybody be interested in giving a demo account if you have it installed on your forums? Before installation, considering it is a quite large.

Very nice! I have installed it on my test board and FINALLY able to tease my users just a little bit more... ;)

Suggestion: Would be nice to have an option to turn on/off the RPG postbit info (if there is an easy way to do this, please let me know!).

Edit: Can't battle for some reason. When I try to challange someone, I get an error: "Your opponent is ineligible for battle at this time." What makes us eligible? Characters appear to be complete...

Also: The requested URL /battleforum/mod/refill.php was not found on this server.

hey bitsys, can i talk to you too on aim? my screen name is DarkDraco07

also can anyone make this store hack integrated? because im using the hack that lets you use store money in itemshop

Velocd:
If you want, you can make a test board (as stated at http://www.vbulletin.com/license.html). This is the easiest way to get familiar with this hack, since the admin features are half the fun ;) It takes about 20 minutes to set up a test board and install this hack.

JaZz0r:
Could you please explain a little more about the on/off postbit thing? Do you want it to only display in a certain forum? Or do you want an admin cp "yes/no" button that turns it on and off for the whole board?

I found the missing file causing the 404 error. It was hiding from me. The next update will include it.

There are several checks in place before you can battle. When creating battles, it checks to see if

• you have no class selected
• you have no race selected
• you have no gender selected
• you have no alignment selected
• you have no hp (you are dead)
• you have no posts

If any of the above are true, with either you OR your opponent, then it will say you (or your opponent) are ineligible for battle.


I have fixed an error where the user's RPG name was not displayed properly in the battle arena.

I have added another feature. Instead of having a user's power level automatically calculated based on their post count, you now have the option to make a user's level admin-defined, based on a profile field in the `userfield` database. User fields can be added via the admin cp. The new feature will appear in the battle options menu, and I will upload that version (with the bug fix) as soon as I test it. Someone requested this feature (they also found the bug :)).

Thanks to everyone who has tested (or wants to test) this hack! I greatly appreciate it!
