Make sure you upgrade to the latest version of the Arcade, v1.01. Simply download the new zip and overwrite the files. :)
Nice new sig, dude, but you should make it link to this thread so that people can click on it from anywhere on the forum where you post :):up:

Is there a hack coming (or available) that prevents people with a certain amount of posts from playing in the Arcade. Since I have two current champions in the games (I have all the games from here) that don't contribute anything to the forums at all.

Flare 01-26-2004 03:57 PM
I'm having a bunch of requests for Flash Flash Revolution ... I can't find an FLA for it, does anyone happen to have a vbArcade version of FFR or something similar?

I'm having the same problem, and it's already in John and Kura's list:

This is one of many features that are planned for upcoming versions.

Oni no Densetsu 01-26-2004 04:48 PM
Good, because one of the members that have 0 posts got another championship spot. :P

Is a hack needed? Set up a new usergroup and use promotions to promote people to that usergroup once they have made a certain amount of posts, then just set the permissions of the standard registered usergroup so that it cant play the arcade

Hialls 01-26-2004 06:08 PM
Any chance anyone could release defend the castle?????

vbmechanic 01-26-2004 06:20 PM
Excellent hack, I've installed in on a few different sites and it works flawlessly.

Why? That's way too much work. I don't wanna manually promote people all the time, it's pointless. A simple hack (which is apparently already in the works) saves me the time of promoting people. Unless, what you're talking about is automated.

It's automated, but I prefer to wait because it's coming soon anyway.

I do, however, also understand that beggars should never be choosers!....and I think that what (I think I read) you are working on in the way of pruning lowest scores in the future will remedy the issue all together. Just a little opinion to throw out. :rolleyes:

I agree the Helicopter game and Bashing Penquins are the best examples of submit control. Especially the helicopter game. You can keep play for hours and then just submit the high score. Penquin doesn't remember your high score but atleast it still has the submit button.

How long does it take to convert a flash game to be playable in the vB3 arcade, out of curiousity?

NuclioN 01-26-2004 09:19 PM
I've seen multiple variations of catching the score in the sourcecode of the games and my guess is that this is an enormous barrier to produce games for this hack. It looks this requires advanced scripting skills.

Well, in the past, Synthlight has always been very protective of the source of Flash Flash Revolution. I think the only way that we'd see FFR for v3Arcade is if someone sent him instructions on how to modify the .FLA and asked him to release it him to release it himself, but even that seems unlikely.

Mellow 01-27-2004 10:22 AM
What do I need to modify the .swf files and add some games here and how much is the software? Is there a freebie editor? Thanks for the help from a newbie-soon-to-be-flasher.

It's not as easy as editing the .swf file, you need the source code - .fla file - to modify it for use with the Arcade. Macromedia Flash MX is generally the software you would use to do this, but I can't think of the license fee off the top of my head.

I just checked, looks like $500 US.

Thanks for the info.

NuclioN 01-27-2004 11:33 AM
John i think the tutorial on page 1 needs to be updated since there are more things to look for in various games if you want to 'catch' the score. Is it possible to give a general guideline where to look for and how to write these first commands for the score?

John 01-27-2004 12:27 PM
Sorry, I'm not feeling too well at the moment - taking a day or two off.

Will get back to work on this when I'm feeling a bit better.

zeeg99 01-27-2004 06:49 PM
Guys, I really suck at this, im trying hard to get a Game off flashkit going, I think it'll be good too

If someone can help, irc.gamesnet.net #sieged please =)

Rampag33 01-27-2004 08:47 PM
Yeah that's the only thing missing since the other arcade for vb2. Just need more games. So far all the games have been great.

zeeg99 01-27-2004 11:13 PM
W00t, i got one, gonna post in a second!

This was taken from flashkit.com =)

This is my first one, and I did a Submit button since I was unable to get it to work right otherwise =)

P.S.

Someone teach me how to do it without a Submit button =)

You can try out the game here: http://forums.sieged.net/arcade.php?do=play&gameid=21 (demo/demo)

Updated 1-28 4:18am (CST)

It now has a few fixes, when you gain levels, your score increases faster and the next level takes %50 more to reach, the game shouldn't end now (unless you die), and the space ships now show correctly.

I'll try to get it so each level speeds up the amount of space ships/how fast they go, I'm new to flash so gimme time =)

I also want to add different weapons for it.

zeeg99 01-27-2004 11:36 PM
If someone knows flash, I want to improve Mars Rover, by making it for each level, it throws more of those balls down faster, and you get more points for each kill at higher levels

Also if you noticed, they seem to appear in the middle of the screen sometimes, not sure how to fix this as I dont know flash

Thanks for the new game...like you said...it could use some improvements. Also...please don't post links to try out the game when you have to register on your boards to see it. It's kinda pointless.

BillaBongUSA 01-27-2004 11:56 PM
Well, he posted a working user name and password so that you could try it out...

zeeg99 01-28-2004 12:30 AM
*punches*

I'm going to TRY and learn some flash, I also have an open source jewels game I want to modify, I just need to add a time limit to it and maybe a couple modifications =)

MaDCaT75 01-28-2004 01:52 AM
If anyone wants to put in a submit button for me for helicopter PM me I like to play for hours before submitting my score!

eXtremeTim 01-28-2004 01:57 AM
While it might work its not tracking the game duration.

zeeg99 01-28-2004 06:00 AM
Ok, I've made the score increase per level, removed the "Boss" thing, and I fixed the aliens crafts not showing up right away (had to remove thing in bg)..

I'm working on making it shoot the balls faster per level :P

Oblivion Knight 01-28-2004 09:34 AM
Cool new game zeeg99 :)
I tried doing this for ProArcade a while back, but failed miserably.

It would seem that you missed something in the code though if it's not tracking the game duartion like eXtremeTim says.. Hopefully this issue can be fixed. Thanks for sharing.

Oni no Densetsu 01-28-2004 04:24 PM
I'm still unsure of what program I would need to convert my own flash games for vB arcade. Assitance?

You need Macromedia Flash.

After the big boss in Level 15 ends the game :-( no loop ?
