(don't mean to knock the hack or the games.....the games are cool.... but they become crappy flash games when you must pay to play them thats all :))

No, it's not that place. That place has nothing to do with this.

Code:

<if condition="$award[icon]!=''">

<!-- arcade awards -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tr>

        <td class="thead">Arcade Awards</td>

</tr>

<tr>

        <td class="alt1">$arcadeawards</td>

</tr>

</table>

<!-- / arcade awards -->

<br />

</if>

What do I need to do to get the IF thing working?

Nomb	03-05-2004 03:28 PM

Awesome hack! A+

Couple issues:

1) The install script does not add templates to all styles. I had to manually edit the script and do one style at a time.

2) You use images/arcade hardcoded in a few places. Maybe it would be best to add an image path style var to each style. Then you could set the path to whatever you want. In my case, I host all of our images on another server to reduce load on the webserver.

/me clicks install

Great hack! I and my users are loving this. Quick question.

I built a new vB3 board and installed the arcade, my live board is still version 2.3. What I would like to do is upgrade the old board to vb3 and then import the database from that board to the new one. Does the v# arcade make any database changes that this would screw up?

Yea, it's a definite issue. I didn't look into the code too much cause I'm busy, but, something I didn't mention:

It DOES add the templates to your first style, but that's it. If you have three other styles it will not add them.

Does this hack maintain the scores even after a vb upgrade so that it doesnt have to start new everytime?

Amzadi

03-06-2004 02:44 PM

Yes, the scores are stored in your database not the php files or templates.

Is there a plan for an uninstall script to remove the DB entries? This is not acceptable when we have to do them manually...

Amzadi

03-06-2004 06:23 PM

DB entries for what? Game scores, uninstalling games....????

I wasn't being one actually. I just see a lot of good hacks that don't have uninstallers. Nothing against this hack, I'm actually going to be installing it. I just want to know that there will be an uninstall script if something goes wrong.

Hello Folks !

When I try to to access the arcade admin panel, I get nothing but a blank page ? Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong ?

Edit: I also can not get the trophies to show up in the user post profiles.

Thanks in advance.

One question...

When I change settings for the Arcade in the Admin CP, after clicking "Submit" it comes up and says "Could not find phrase: 'arcade_cp_settingssaved'." Then it redirects back to the settings page... but the changes are saved...

I double checked and that phrase has been added...

Just wondering :) Great Hack BTW!

Most of the phrases need to be added as GLOBAL. Some, though - like this one - need to be added as a different type. Delete the phrase from your system, and re-add it as the type of phrase they say in the install instructions and it should work.

could someone help me out with this?

Let me ask something. Is there a way to implement some kind of system that a member would have to make 3-5 posts when they sign onto the boards before they could play arcade games?

Owen	03-07-2004 02:28 PM

you could just make a new group that registered users promote to after 3-5 posts.

If you want a crude way to do it...

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
// Checks to see if GET variables are valid

And above this, add:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($bbuserinfo['posts']<10){

    print_no_permission();

}

Where in this example, 10 is the number of required posts to be able to play in the Arcade. People with post counts lower than that will be shown a "no permission" page.

Owen	03-07-2004 02:38 PM

Hey could you help me out? With that last post of mine?

So, is there a plan for an uninstaller?

Maybe there is, maybe there isn't.

Although anyone with a couple of braincells can figure out how to uninstall it. IIRC I've already been over the procedure once or twice.

So you choose not to add an uninstaller because it may be simple remove tables from a database... Some people may not be well versed in phpmyadmin...

Stunning... People like you make me regret releasing anything to the public.

If you screw up the installation, you can easily restore from the backups you should have made to begin with. Alternatively, if you want me to teach you how to remove tables from a database, I'll write a tutorial just for you.

John	03-07-2004 03:58 PM

I just want to point out that ogden2k edited his post before I replied, changing the quote. He edited it to remove arrogance, apparently.

I understand your point, but the average user is not going to do this. Most hacks have an uninstaller that make things easier. This would just enhance your hack even more.

Getting a little tired of this. If I choose to add an uninstaller, I will add an uninstaller.

It's not exactly a revolutionary concept - it comes down to whether I'd rather spend time on another Arcade add-on that everyone will enjoy, or instead work on something to save 0.1% of people from having a couple of redundant tables in their database.

03-07-2004 04:12 PM

Some people like to keep their DB clean. Oh well, I was hoping for an uninstaller.

Then code one, or keep on hoping.
