vb.org Archive - Problem with external vB page

Alright, I'm trying to create an external vB page so I can parse the BBCode in the news articles that get posted, but I'm having no luck.

The PHP code I have is (at the top of the page):

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);



define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'index');

define('FWD', '/home/tgaming/trickgaming.org/forum');

define('BWD', (($getcwd = getcwd()) ? $getcwd : '.'));



$phrasegroups = array();

$specialtemplates = array();

$globaltemplates = array();

$actiontemplates = array();



chdir(FWD);

require_once('./global.php');

chdir(BWD);



?>

Then a bunch of irrelevant stuff, and then further down:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');

$parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());



$do_html = false; $do_smilies = true; $do_bbcode = true;

$do_imgcode = true; $do_nl2br = true; $cachable = false;



$forumid = 2;

$newslimit = 5;



$query_sel_news = $db->query_read("SELECT * FROM thread WHERE forumid='$forumid' ORDER BY threadid DESC LIMIT {$newslimit}");



while ($r = $db->fetch_array($query_sel_news))

{

$title = $row['title'];

$date = $row['dateline'];

$username = $row['postusername'];

$threadid = $row['threadid'];

$firstpostid = $row['firstpostid'];

$views = $row['views'];

$replies = $row['replycount'];



$query_sel_news = $db->query_read("SELECT * FROM post WHERE postid='$dfirstpostid'");



while ($r = $db->fetch_array($query_sel_news))

{

    $pagetext = $parser->do_parse(

        $r['pagetext'],

        $do_html, $do_smilies, $do_bbcode,

        $do_imgcode, $do_nl2br, $cachable

    );



    include ('inc/news.php');

}

}



$db->free_result($query_sel_news);

$db->close();



?>

However, this gives me the errors:

Code:

Fatal error: Call to a member function query_read_slave() on a non-object in /home/.cessie/tgaming/trickgaming.org/forum/includes/class_bbcode.php on line 198



Fatal error: Call to a member function unlock_tables() on a non-object in /home/.cessie/tgaming/trickgaming.org/forum/includes/functions.php on line 4680

I'm running 3.6.0 B3, and I'm pretty sure the code was written for 3.5.3, but I don't see anything that should have changed since then. Any help?
