Yes, thank you for that, Blaine!
Regarding integration to ibProArcade, Marcel at vBHacks provided the following information:
"all hooks are present in ibProArcade to place PlugIns for any cash-system in it.
check /includes/xml/hooks_ibproarcade.xml for more details..."
So I looked in that file and found:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<hooks>
<hooktype type="ibProArcade">
<hook>ibproarcade_global_start</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_navbar_complete</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_play_game</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_play_game_popup</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_play_game_tourney</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_new_champ</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_tourney_won</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_register_tourney_start</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_do_create_tourney_start</hook>
<hook>ibproarcade_gamebit</hook>
</hooktype>
</hooks>
Could you suggest or offer any ideas on how to use this to enable members to use their points to play arcade games that permit wagering? The integration would pass points both ways: points wagered from member's iCash account to ibProArcade and then any game winnings from ibProArcade back into member's iCash account.
As always, your help is appreciated.
