I agree - this is probably the best hack out there. My members swarm to the arcade, but I don't charge a fee. I also paid to download games and even though the price was kind of steep, I found it worth while as I was able to double my games that I could offer. My forum was just started in Jan 2005, and I already have 226 members. Right now there are 6 members online and 4 of them are in the arcade!

My only wish is that someone could get the netplay feature working.

What is needed though is a separate thread that would allow links for people to download games... rather than folks who are looking to be constantly posting on here. Would the powers here allow such a thread if we only posted links and did not allow people to upload games directly here (and eat up space and bandwidth of vbulletin.org)?

dear members,


as v3arcade.com has closed due to problems with the copyright of the games authors, I uploaded the game package to my server. The downloadlink is in my attachment, because of the non vbulletin members here.

Important: Be careful with the copyright!! Ask the authors if it is okay for them that you use their games in your forum.
donĀ“t upload any game to your forum if you are not sure, that this is legal


yours

Hey, is there an uninstall script for this, or Can someone make the SQL commands and instructions i'd need to have a clean uninstall of this? Thanks

wolfyman 04-09-2005 11:09 PM

Did you run the install file?

MentaL 04-10-2005 02:06 AM

yes it came from the install file

KTBleeding 04-10-2005 02:14 AM

If you ran the installer then the table should be there.

Try it again..

Go to "yoursite.com/admincp/install_arcade.php" and follow the steps again?

MentaL 04-10-2005 12:15 PM

Uh, did you upload the install_arcade.php to your /admincp/? That'd be a good start.

T_Montana 04-10-2005 03:41 PM

Princeton 04-10-2005 03:47 PM

Opinions. Everyone has them. I respect that you have yours.

I will have something up soon that will allow game downloads. I have not had the time to do anything with it lately between work and home happenings, but it is almost ready. No, please do not ask for the games yet because they are not in a ready to go state. There are places out there to get games. A link will be posted when it is up.

While I agree some with what you have said, I would rather have the defunct hacks moved to a sort of oldies but goodies forum, install at your own risk.

I further think that it is the charter of vbulletin.org to help forum owners and leasees make the most out of their boards. Is this done with major addition hacks that have been abandoned?

Yes, I accede that John put out a good product, but it has run its course.

But the hack does what it says it does, i don't see whats wrong with it

Back when Vbulletin 2 was out Futereals Arcade was the main one and never had more than the installation games for a good year into me having installed it , no one complained back then

i had the arcade working fine, and i added a new skin, and have all the settings set.. now the arcade.php? page on the new skin is blank,, how can i fix this ? whats the post im qouting mean ?

Brandon Sheley 04-11-2005 01:19 AM

nvm i got her worked out :) read the faq's :P
Great Hack and addons :nervous:

Answer: The installation script only installs templates to the style that
you're using at the time of the installation. It's simple to change.


In admincp/install_arcade.php
FIND:
__________________________________________________ _____
$styleid=$vboptions['styleid'];
__________________________________________________ _____

REPLACE THIS WITH:
__________________________________________________ _____
$styleid=X;
__________________________________________________ _____

You won't have this option (right now) with v3. You upload the X.game.php file to admincp and execute it directly. That is, of course, if I understand you correctly.

If I remember the definition of defunct, it means no longer in use or is inactive. Well, I think that the activity of questions asking for assistance, questions on use, etc. would go against this definition. There is still life in this and a lot of other modifications. I may be biased with this as I still use v3, but is that not the point? Sometimes a mod is made that is used at first and lost in the shuffle of new mods and then rediscovered. I scan these forums whenever I can and have only gotten back to about 2 years and am still finding stuff to add. Heck, I am starting to look at the vB2 mods because there are some great ones there that do not seem to have made it (officially) to vB3.

Moving to an oldies but goodies forum? Honestly why would vB.org maintain two seperate categories of same-type mods and having to constantly manage them and decide when they are not actively used any more? I know I would not want to do that!

Point here is why even bother with "retiring the old mods"? They are all useful in some fashion. If it is because they have people asking questions and the original author is not responding, maybe others will. If it is not useful for one person, that does not mean it is not useful for another.

Not trying to bust your chops here or anything, just an opinion.

Ok, I have a small problem.

I just deleted all users with 0 posts, and half of them had #1 scores at games. Now I get an mysql error every hour due to that. Any quick way to fix this?

I hate upgating mysql everyday due to this.

Read back about 4 pages. I posted a fix that should work for you. Without a copy of the error, though, I cannot be sure. I believe the error you are seeing regularly is caused by search engines refreshing themselves looking for those IDs.

Is there a way to make it so that only users with a certain number of posts can play in the arcade?

Please the only reason there is life in this is because its here.
You know I know this thing is a resource hog and isnt really "good" code. Yes its free and yada dada but this guy is in no way supporting this. I see no differnce in this and say... vbindex. Good idea... even started out good... hey even works good... but isnt really supported and DOES have issues.

vbulletin forces you to go here if you need help with anything that is slightly off of factory code. Once your here its a free for all. I can relase some butchered up code and it can sit here for ever. why are there so many moderators with no moderating?

jokes.

The way i did this was to set up a usergroup called "arcade users" and restrict the arcade access to that group. You can then set up an automatic promotion in the admin cp so that any users that have made "x" number of posts are moved into the arcade users group.

Almost everything you put forward here I can agree with. What I do not understand is the moderation comment. I do not see what you quoted me as saying has anything to do with what you posted.

It is my opinion is no matter the age, there will still be use for a lot of (maybe not all) old mods. That can be proven by what I have found in 2 years of posts I have gone through and found plenty of either mods I put in or mods that gave me insight to do something similar.

Again, who out there is qualified to tell me what mods are good or not good for my sites? Not an attack, just a comment.

Now let's continue with this thread in what it was intended for, shall we? v3arcade discussions.

jjdog2 04-13-2005 08:56 PM

Neil Roberts 04-14-2005 09:28 AM
