has anyone been abe to resolve the whos online problem (ie. the one that shows you playing a game when in fact your reading some thread?) my users have found out that this isnt right and its annoying ;)

greets
tina

It will be fixed in the next version of the arcade, but you can fix it by not using the $vbchampicon and just using the $vbchamtext by itself. If you want the icon just change the champion text so that it has an HTML img src link to the icon image on your web server.

Plasmanaut v2? Where did you get that? :)

I released it a few posts back as Plasma v2. Dunno if the ZIP is on my new server yet, though. Lemme check.

EDIT: Yep, the ZIP is there. :)

Here's my post with it: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...984#post366984

Here's the download link: http://www.vggmn.com/addons/plasma.zip

Can anyone advise me on how to upload thumbnails or the crowns.

I can browse to they, but when I click on upload they are not there when refreshed.

Many thanks.

That ZIP is 4.24 MB in size! :)

Edit: The game looks great. Big though... I'll trial it on my site... I'm just concerned of the bandwidth needed to host it :)

Which is why it is on my server instead of attached here. It's one huge game. :)

asteroids works nice, and for that basketball game, provide a link to that person's forums.

This confused me for a while. Make sure the graphics are in GIF format, as they seem to disappear if in BMP format.

BMP format images aren't the best for the web anyways... You'd be a lot better off using GIFs for everything... You don't lose a lot of quality, you have 256 colors to work with, and they usually are under 1 or 2kb, as long as they aren't animated.

BMPs have a tendancy to not show up in some browsers... I think this is intentional, because even a 50px by 50px BMP can be well over 5kb, when if you save that same image as a GIF, it is only 1 or 2kb, and looks virtually identical. Browsers are usually coded to be as fast and efficient as possible, so some browsers may just decide to not show BMPs at all.

Cheers.

All working now... :)

Hi all. Just wanted to chirp up and say nice work on the games. I've put several of them on my forums an kept the ones my users are enjoying.... Hexxagon is by far the favorite and there are some heated competitions going on for that one.

Anyway, I am a flash designer by trade, and I will convert and post any game you can give me the source files for... provided its a game that I will also be using, or if I have some spare time.

I am still having trouble getting the scores for hexxagon to record. Is there anyway you guys could inform me with your exact variables and HTML code. I used the code from post #165 and am using score variable $hexxagonscore, but it is not working.

Is Frogger actually working?

I've seen some comments of people looking at it, but no confirmed yes or no, it's all ok?

Thanks to everyone who have modified the new games. I just added 6 new ones to my site earlier and my users are loving them. It's so funny to see everyone competing just to have a little crown by their name. ;)

The HTML code for hexxagon that I'm using is :

Code:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" width="400" height="500">

<param name="movie" value="$vpa_gameurl?location=$vpa_bburl&gamename=$game&gamehash=$gamehash&s=$session[sessionhash]">

<param name=loop value=false> 

<param name=menu value=false> 

<param name=quality value=high> 

<param name=bgcolor value=#000000>

<embed src="$vpa_gameurl" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="500">

</embed>

</object>

The score variable is $hexxagonscore and the hash offset is (as always) 5.

Where the smiley is in the code, it should be fullcolon D

Thanks Osmosis! It is working now. :)

My pleasure!

As a sidenote here, and I"m not sure how this will be taken by you all, but I've managed to create a wrapper for an SWF file that works on my forums arcade. I've successfully taken an swf from the web, wrapped it, and made the scores submit to the arcade.

Now, I am not posting it here for 2 reasons. First of all, this is essentially a way to pirate copyrighted games (if they arent copyright, they have source code), and I dont want to be the one to spearhead this pirate ship. Secondly, I've only used this wrapper on one game so far (Pedestrian Killer), and it certainly doesnt work perfectly... i.e. the game has a built in high scores table that essentially appears and then the game submits the players score to the arcade.

BUT, hopefully thats incentive for you all to learn a bit more about flash :) I certainly hope a post like this doesnt get me banned from these boards, and if it will please let me know ahead of time so I can delete this post.

Warning: If you reached this page via your browser's "Back" button, you must refresh this
page before playing Simon Says, otherwise your score will result in a security violation.

i get that error when i try to isntall Simon Says.... any help?

also the swf file doesnt appear....

and it works now. Not sure why i couldnt get it working via the admin cp (had no problems with simon says).

one thing that did throw me is that it doesnt add the score unless you fill in/complete the entire board. I sat there testing it for ages trying to figure out why my score wasnt being added :speechless:

anyway, i hope the above helps anyone else who was having simular problems :)

i get this error

MySQL said:

You have an error in your SQL syntax near '\'hexxagonFinal\', \'Hexxagon\', \'Try to get the most stones.\', \'hexxagonFina' at line 1

Run SQL query/queries on database - i go through there....

I dont know why you'd want to send that SQL query when you can add the game thru the admin CP no problem.

the only reason why i did the SQL query like that is because when i tried to go through the admin CP the same stuff was happening....

what version is your board?

thanks for all the new games ... it really looks like nice list of games now :)

Hiya guys :)
Anyone know where Donkey Kong is lurking for the arcade? I've seen it on a couple of vbProArcade sites, but not anywhere in the threads :(

I am aware of at least a few sites out there that have modified games and are not giving them out to people. It's possible that one or more of the games you guys are looking for and have seen fall into that category.

I need to update the first post in this thread to reflect the newer games that have been added to the arcade.

First post has been updated, with links to all known games in this thread.

Enjoy!

im running version 2.2.9.. i think...

if anyone knows of sites with other proarcade games they'd like out (such as donkey kong), post links to them and maybe one of us can convince them to release it.

most those sites are for wbb2, and the site with vB seems to have the games only there, and not actually working with proarcade. I think the wbb2 games are configured differently.

If this is the case, perhaps there is reason to offer duel support in VB Arcade?

I played with this , very cool stuff ...

I have had endless problems with DB's through the history of VB with imbeded images u/l ed to the SQL DB. Is there a fix to make the images show up useing a link to a file on the server vs. uploading the image into the DB ?

just copy and paste the html from any of the games for asteroids.

X- BALL

It does not go to the correct page when a game ends. goes to: http://proarcade.php/ is there a way to fix this?

i updated the zip. reupload xball.swf

I'm having a problem with new games. The initial five released work wonderfully and the thumbnail images display properly but the two I've installed lately, Simon Says and Hexagon, are displaying the thumbnails very poorly. Colors are mixed up and the image is junky. What could be the problem? I can't manually add the image because I get an error having to do with openbase_dir or something like that. We also are running in safe mode.

Thank you for X-Ball.

My forum is about Retro gaming, consoles and old computer chat. This is just the kind of game that my members will love.

Cheers.

X-Ball is ok... But to me, it looks like a version of Breakthru that was never completed. I think I'll leave this one alone... Some of my members have been requesting games like Pong and Centepede... Anyone wanna try to make either of these compatable? I'd really apreciate it.

Oh, and a modified version of Hexxagon would be nice, where if you win, you keep playing games against the computer until you lose. So if I beat the computer, I get to play another game, and another, until my winning streak is put to an end. Then, your total score would get sent to the scoreboard. I'll take a look at the FLA file later and see if I can make that change.

Two games I'd like to see ported for it, the first is Monster!...

...attached is the FLA and SWF file from Flash Kit download site.
