very nice indeed thanks bro

:)

I'll be releasing a new update soon that will add more cool functionality.

This may be a silly question, but can users still choose to use regular avatars instead of the living avatars? It all looks very cool, but I don't want to force my users to use it. If it's a choice, however, that would be great.

Yes. It's a choice.

uninstalled.

Is this intergrated with Vbux?

Or the iCash system?

as i said in the official forum, no, but it could be with an effort to completely rewrite the internal point system to read and write from/to vbux/icash points, or mirroring the icash/vbux value somewhere else and making la read/write it, but it would need a complete rewrite of how the point system works in la, as right now it's done reading the post count and subtracting from it the total price of the bought items.
it could be done as a 'phisical' mod to the core files, but as this is a young product being actively worked on it could be an hell to update the la modifying the files every time, so i guess i'll wait til this will be directly available by the developers :)

btw, i saw that someone else is having troubles with cookies being modified by la system and made unusable by vb... i didn't try out with 1.02 but i had serious problems with someone not being able to log anymore to the forum when trying 1.01. has this been fixed?

Wow, very nice mod man. Seriously =) Very nice. This improves the quality of the forums by so much. It makes me even want to post more =D

I would be very interested and would install this if there were some way to disable the points system. Is this possible, if not are you looking to do this in the next upgrade?

Cheers

It does not look that hard to disable the point system....From a quick browse of the code it looks like you could make an edit in session.php around like 182. Instead of the $userinfo[points] field being dynamic it could be set to a static number (say, 10000).

Again, this is a quick skimming of the code so I may have missed stuff...just tested and it seems to work ok, the number does go down but is reset each purchase. For an actual integration to another point system I thin you would have to make an edit to this section..have it look at the point table of whatever system to populate this system. Then you would have to edit the purchase function to subtract from this table.

*edit* nevermind. :D

Thanks for that calash, i just want to make it so users can do what ever they want with the character. My experience with have awards and points systems based on posting has created alot of spamming and stuff just to reach goals. So it would be nice if this could work with out it or any other points systems.

Someone has posted a mod on the homepage (forum) of the author of this topic, to make it work with a points system, but it's not a complete fix... if you guys check over there maybe we can all collaborate to make it work better.

Took a look at the post. It seems like it is taking the longer way of doing it, going through core.php instead of modifying session.php.

I will post over there, I may be missing something that he spotted when doing his code.

Set the cost of items to 0 and everything will be free.

like many others suggested, it would be very cool if this could integrate with "any" other point system out there.

p3tz has a similar function, and its actually extremely easy, it just has 2 extra fields in the settings called table and row.

these are filled in like "user" and "vbux" or something similar, depenings wich is the correct row with points.

Is there some way to embed the living avatar stuff into the '/profile.php?do=editavatar' section of the forum?

possible issue...
I've read most of this thread and don't think anyone has mentioned this - but on my forum when going to the Living Avatar (http://jpicforum.info/living_avatars/index.php) - everytime seems to log me out of the main forum and require username/password be used to gain entry to the Living Avatar interface...

Any way to bypass that step. Seems like since both are on the same database it should be more of an integrated type system.

Thanx,

Jacquii.

BTW- My Members are enjoying the hell out of the Living Avatar system!
I love it to! = Thanx for the sharing! Really really nice!

I have seen some posts on this on the official site...a cookie problem from what I have read. Not sure if there is a solution out there yet.

My members are not getting as much of a kick out of the system as I am...but I am hoping that once I get more packs and have it integrated into another point system this will change :)

Try this...

vboptions - Cookies and HTTP Header Options - Cookie Domain

Change Suggested Settings to .yourdomain.com

:)


ETA: and installing now. nice job!

I had this issue and had to clear the vbulletin cache system. Dont ask me why but it worked.

I tried both clearing the vB cache AND changing the cookie setting...
Same issue o_O --- Thanx CALASH for info on the main LivingAvatars.com site
Posted and subscribed to threads there as well ;)

Jacquii.

ps - I cleared the post cache actually
Any other way to clear the vB cache?

Wow!!!Pretty Cool!!
Can i do this with car images?And how?

Integrated it an hour ago and my members are having an absolute blast! subduck, fantastic mod!

Sweet mod! My members will love this one. Thanks!

Genius Mod! Easy install, no problems at all. One quick question though, How are you able to get a closer picture of the face rather than the standard whole body view?

Suggestion and question

any way to get the item to the center by default? so user no need to go it to center manually

its always go to left by default

By using the crop tool.

Doh! I didn't even see that there, lol. Thanks :)

If you hold down the shift button you can increase/decrease the size of the crop tool.

Genius, sheer genius! Thanks.

Is there a way to run this script without having to CHMOD folders to 777?

Thanks

No, the avatars folder has to be chmod to 777. In the future I'll try to create a setting that will add avatars to the database so that you won't have to worry about chmod issues.

Thankyou,

I will look forward to it, I told my members all about the living avatars and now they are hungry for it.

Well I can't promise that feature anytime soon.

Oh, this is TOO CUTE!!!

I only read through the first 5 pages, or so, so forgive me if i'm repeating, but an 'international' pack of people would be great. My big board has women from all countries.

My members are gonna LUV this (once I have people of all races ;) )

Thanks for this! :)

True, but the mere mention of a points system (even if it's not being used) would still be distracting. Like the other person, I would be more interested in this hack if there were a way to wipe out any mention of the points system (or to install it without the points system).
