Sanni, the file worked perfectly, thanks

One of my members score did not post... they took a screen shot of they scores.. but it didnt show up at all...

Are you sure the screen shot hasnt been edited?

Wondering what impact on the rest of the board, the increase in stored high scores is going to have?

Is there any way to limit the number stored?

Also... How do you reset the scores ?

It will have absolutely no impact on the board. The scores take up an absolutely miniscule amount of space in the database.

There is no current way to limit the number of scores stored (I am still not sure why you would want to).

You can reset the scores in the Admin CP in Beta 2.

Known things that will be fixed in 2.01:

- security problems, hash security toggle
- showing people as playing in the arcade when viewing threads
- bad SQL query (trying to insert an Array)

Anything else of note? Those are the main ones I keep saying.

I also can't stress enough the fact that this hack will not work with non-IE browsers. To those that have emailed me, it's not my fault, and I'm sorry that things are the way they are, but Netscape, Mozilla and Opera simply don't handle POST data correctly (or well, to put it a different way).

Great, as long as it doesn't take up much space there's no need to delete them... so thanks for that.

BUT.. The reset scores option in Beta 2, does not seem to work on my board :(

Is it just me, or have I missed something obvious?

I really don't see why so many people seem concerned about the number of scores kept in the database. I've had this installed since around the 2nd day it was released. I currently have 1,300 scores that are recorded and it takes up 133kb of space. My entire database takes up 260mb, so that would be around 0.0005% of the space.


As long as your asking for suggestions futureal, here's a couple of things I noticed... The places it checks the time & date of scores uses the date function instead of the vbdate function, so it doesn't show the correct time if it's been changed in the Admin CP.
None of the templates the arcade uses are called at the beginning of the script, so of course that adds unnecessary extra queries for each template.
I also noticed that you didn't use the free_result function after you were done with the queries, which of course isn't good for high traffic sites. Not that I think it's really affecting things too much, but it still wouldn't hurt.
As far as I remember those were the only suggestions I had for the script. Looking forward to the update and thank you for your hard work on an excellent script. :)

is there any particular reason why I can't unzip tetris from the vbproarcade zip file? i would expect its just a bad attachment, but I kept trying to redownload it with no success. can someone attach an unzipped swf file or email it to mvpaudio@comcast.net ? i would appreciate it greatly! :)

nvm it finally worked - after I restarted my computer about six times. thanks.
