I re downloaded the zip file and there is not /arcade directory at all. Where do you see this? I searched both
installation and upgrade text files, no mention of "777" let alone 0777

Now I see it in the actual important page (admin panel).

Extract and upload the games you want to import into the arcade/games folder. Make sure that you CHMOD the following folders to 0777 for this import:
forumroot/admincp/games
forumroot/images/arcade
forumroot/games

However, all these and subfolders/files are 0777 chmodded, still not importing anything for some reason

I wouldn't recommend making it ticked by default, mostly for members who have multiple users at their home and if they happen to be staff someone could automatically log in without realizing it. If it happens to be their little brother he could get them into trouble. ;) I personally would never make it ticked by default for security reasons for my other members.

There is an option in each members usercp under arcade options for them to check to allow challenges. There may be a way to make that checked by default, until someone figures that out I would recommend making an annoucement for your members about the arcade options in their usercp.

They have about 20 yeti games there.


There's also http://v3progames.com/ which requires a $10 donation but you can download them all at once unlike the other site which is a game by game download.

i've uploaded a collection of games to admincp/games and am trying to import from admincp - game tools - but i get the message that there are no new game to be imported - can anyone help??

did you add all the files there or just the .php file.......?

Exactly my problem the whole time. Anyone?

How do you get the v3 Arcade menu option to appear in the Admin Panel? I assume you need to get a license or something from v3arcade.com, but since the forum is down that's a no go.

What are my options before I waste time uninstalling this and trying the competition out.

Hi SpaceStar and Chadi.

What you need to do is upload the UNZIPPED files to admincp/games/

So you should have usually 4 files for each game.

Hope that helps

Richard

Ive noticed that quite a few of the games have been removed, but I really really want the bloody penguin one instead of the original, so if anyone have the 2 pics, php file and swf file could they please link me to it or PM me.
thanks :)

P.s Love the arcade, everyone on my forum is spending hours on it :D

First of all, the Arcade is great!!! This is the third version I've used and it's as good as ever.

I'll likely go branding free at some point, but for now can anyone point me in the right direction to just edit the links to v3arcade to open in a new window? I can't seem to find that bit of code.

Thanks!

Is anyone missing the phrase "arcade_champion" from their fresh install?

What would checking allow challenges have to do with users being logged off?

This sparked from geniuz's post about being logged off.

Thanks Gonzo

After uploading the games into the directory and installing them from the Admin CP.....looking at the Arcade games on the site....I can only see the text about the game. When I click on the link for the game....the game does not start or even show me a graphic of the game.

Any ideas?

This is what i am getting please explain what is this and how it can be solved ?????

Yeah I don't seem to have an arcade champion and I installed a while back.

Exaxctly what I had done already....

Still telling me no games to important, ridiculous :(

I got it now. I have to unzip the files (w/o directories) and upload them.

One problem left. Deleting a category does nothing. I click delete, nothing happens

Also, how do I edit the footer?

:(, no one at all????????????????????

uh?????

I have done this as well...but for some odd reason....I only have a text link showing the name of the game. Click on it...and it takes me into a screen that looks like the game is suppose to open in to....but it's blank.

Any ideas?

Update....

What I had to do was manually upload the files into their respective directories and now all the games are showing up in the Arcade and I can play them.

I still don't understand why I can't install the games from the Admin CP. All directories that are required to be 0777 are.

Strange....
www.f-bodyhideout.com

its in your user options in your usercp......

you just need to make sure others have it ticked. I havent tried that feature but I have it set to accept challenges

What is the 0777 all about? I do not get that at all. Also, I installed it correctly and when I go under Arcade in the Navbar it takes me to the game page, but when I click on a game it gives me a page not found error whenever a game is clicked to be played. I am lost! Can anyone help?

AWESOME HACK! *clicked install!*

Ok. the v3arcade menu has suddenly *shown up* ???

WoW that was a long day are we in for months of not hearing from you again?

Now the the menu is in place, I must admit getting games uploaded is an absolute breeze.

Is he obligated to serve you? No. This hack is free and he'll respond as he wishses whether you like it or not.

Deleting a category does nothing. I click delete, nothing happens

Also, how do I edit the footer?

No one said he was (even though I did pay for support) did you hear that come out of my mouth no. I'm just going on past history of letting us down. I simply stated a fact if you dont like it oh well ignore me and my post that simple.

Hi

Any chance of having a feature simular to the other arcade system on here, whereby it shows how many of the top scores a player has.

Also can't the tournament system be made easier - ie: without having to go to the forum to click on a username, or am i missing something simpler.

Cheers

Richard

Are there any more games coming ????????
As the main reason i went for this system and paid for the branding free was that is was going to have legal games installed and so far we only have 9 games i have got shed loads on a disc but i want it all to be legal.
Also how long before the next update as the last i heard i was on your site and the dead line had passed for the updated version then the site went down and that was months ago.

Just installed, work nice, thank you :)

John, just installed and everything works as it should. A small request. We tend to reset the scores on a monthly basis. Could you slap a button in the games admin area that allows us to whack all the scores with just one click? Would be greatly appreciated.

John could you scratch my back for me :D

sorry i couldnt resist, looking forward to the latest news.

I was referring to support centre tickets. I'll get through the posts in this thread later on.

Will do. :)

Yep, loads of new games have been added - about 50 and counting. As soon as the site opens again they'll be available.

You, sir, are thoroughly awesome.

Looking forward to when the site goes back online.
