great. does this finally include mutiplayer games?

thankyou so much for this

Great news m8 what time scale are we looking at ???

Just long enough for him to release it and then disappear again... LOL

That may well be so, but I have someone else working on development with me now - so even if I disappear off the face of the earth, it shouldn't affect releases.

Okay, I uploaded all the files from the files directory into forums directory again. I imported the product-v3arcade.xml as a product via the plug in system and yet I am STILL not seeing permission for the arcade in my usergroup manager. :(

What the heck am I doing wrong????

Which version of vBulletin? Can you list all the files you have in your includes/xml directory?

LOL - At least you're honest. I'm anxious to see what you have in store...

Just a few graphics to tweak and some extra text to add (to make sure people know what they're doing when installing games), and we're done. I'll get that done tomorrow, and the site will go live again once I'm finished.

Hi John, did you by chance see my post? Is there a SQL query I can run within the admincp to rebuild the arcade tables manually? No matter how many times I do the reinstall it never recreates them.

John, just had another slick idea.. I've noticed you have restrictions built into the system based on post count, posts per day, etc. How difficult would it be to allow access based on usergroup????

Look in the XML file. in there you should see the SQL Query for adding the tables.

SCHWEEEEEEEET HACK.

*Installed* like a mofo. My members will be lovin' me. Thanks!

The V3 site should be live again today (20th) http://www.v3arcade.com/forums/index.php

Yes, there is - you can run:

admincp/arcadetools.php?do=fixdb

Feature suggestion:

How about a feature where we can make all games only playable to those with more than x posts. It's a lot of hassel doing this game by game when you have 100's of games ;)

Cheers

Just to let everyone know... I am still recovering from surgery. Slow activation times on registrations at vBulletinGames.com are to be expected for the short term. Also, the forums are a bit lagged behind from opening due to the same. I have gotten a few nastygrams on not being activated within the stated 48 hours, so...

Nothing too serious I hope? Just got out of hospital myself. :(

Mouth surgery. Cut out a large section of soft pallette, took out tonsils, straightened my septum in my nose, opened and carterized the internal nose tissues... and a couple other things I cannot remember right now. All because of a little sleep apnea. (They said severe). So, I am not on the pain meds right this sec, but the need is coming! I can feel it now. The pain will last for months, the doc said. After about 3 months, I should be virtually pain free. Yes, I took to "do it all now and get it over" approach. Otherwise, a surgery here with pain for a month, another one later, and possibly another 2 or three later after that. I say bugger to that. Do it all. Starting to wonder if I made the right choiuce, but it is too late now!

In any case, more than anyone really needed to know. The forums will open soon enough. John, Zero, and coders out there for v3arcade and ibProArcade, I would like your permission to put your modifications up on vBulletinGames.com for the respective arcade types. Please do not respond here. Please respond via PM or e-mail (webmaster@vbulletingames.com). I will not put them up (or allow them to be put up) without your permissions first.

Thanks!

Here's hoping your both fully recovered soon guys.

The site is back up now, at http://www.v3arcade.com/forums. :)

Woah man, thats pretty bad. 3 months, atleast it'll all by christmas (hopefully!) and new years ;).

OMG!! WHAAHOO!! This is great!! :0

whats up with the template? why is everything to the right? John were you drunk or was it the medicine?

In a moment of insanity I decided to make the site right aligned. I'll probably do a centred version, though.

lol I was wondering what was going on. Its different never seen that before

Asteroids, Hexxagon, Pacman, Tetris, Simon... are these really legal games? :confused:

They were sent to me as a collection of games where I was told the author was consulted, and permission was given. Obviously the issue here is that the author isn't the copyright holder of the property, so that could cause problems. Pacman is definitely going, but I'll look into removing the others depending on what I find out.

How hard is it to convert Flash games to play on v3arcade?
(The link to Oblivion Knight's guide no longer works.)

I can make Flash Games. So... I'm wondering, with this new delivery system, is the v3arcade becoming a commercial enterprise? Will you be selling games? Will game developers be able to make money too?

Yes, people can sell their games through the store if they want.

Hi,
Is there anyway of making a pop-up box for arcade awards in postbit_legacy?

I have some members with over 80 awards and going to any thread they have made a post in always takes ages because it loads all the pics in and slows the whole thread down.

Like if you clicked on their user name it would be a link Arcade Awards and when you clicked it then a box could pop up with all their awards?

Thank you for any help :)

Perhaps a better way would be to limit the number of awards displayed in the postbit???

Installed how ever on my main skin syle which is tren Z From Extemepixels

could not find this code in navbar as u said to change it to

so as u said

what do u recomend me to do ??

this is all i have in my navbar

It is highly possible that with the style you are using, the menu options are included in the header template and that's where you'll need to put your arcade link. I had a similar problem a couple of years ago, and I discovered that the navbar was really driven by the header template in some styles.

Dumbass question probably but will this work with 3.6.1? I just got everything the way I want it (other than the lack of an arcade) and I don't want or need anything to come along and mess it all up.

nah it works great just reinstalled it and it took 2 mins.

Do you want to post more detail on that? :bunny:

How does it work? Do you collect the money, then pay the game developers? Is it a Paypal thing?

I found a thread at your site: "Game Store" screenshots, and licensing stuff ...but the first post links to another thread. That link doesn't work for me.

Hi,

I dont think there is an option:confused:

whats up with www.v3arcade.com the site is down... I thought beta was coming out today?
