For some reason, when I try to install vBArcade, I couldn't pass htaccess part of installation.

I uploaded all files, made three directories chmod 777 (needed to create temp one), and then I try to import xml.

I tried to upload files multiple time (just in case some file was missing), tried to change .htaccess line ending encoding (windows, linux) in case it couldn't be read properly (server is unix, this could be problem in some cases).

I'm trying to install it on my test server that has protection from access, I removed it temporarily to test if it causes problem with installation.

Nothing helps, installation asks that I add this code into htaccess and that's it:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on

# Set to vbulletin directory
RewriteBase /

# Retrieve gamedata requests and send to new dbtech locations
RewriteRule ^arcade/gamedata/(.*) dbtech/vbarcade/media/$1 [L]

# Retrieve crossdomain requests and send to new dbtech location
RewriteRule ^crossdomain\.xml dbtech/vbarcade/crossdomain.xml [L]

# Send hardcoded legacy scores to arcade instead
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} newscore\.php [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} viewgame\.php
RewriteRule .* arcade.php?sendscore=legacy [L,QSA]

# Send hardcoded legacy scores to arcade instead
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} func=storeScore [OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} autocom=arcade [OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} act=arcadelib [OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} act=Arcade
RewriteRule .* arcade.php [L,QSA]

# Reroute v3arcade liveinstaller
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} do=liveinstall
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} v3arcade_admin\.php

# If you renamed your admincp directory, change it here
RewriteRule .* %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/admincp/arcade_admin.php?%{QUERY_STRING}&do=review&import= browse&system=v3a [L,R=301]
</IfModule>

EDIT: I also downloaded lite version from DBTech site, I see there's minor byte difference, didn't checked code to know what's different, but the result is the same.

EDIT2: I had a time and wanted to know if I can do something more. Anyway, thanks ozzy47 for suggestion, I went to your site and downloaded older version v1.3.0 from there.

Installation went smoothly as it can go. No problems with htaccess.

Ok, I thought it may solve problem with v2.0.2, reuploaded appropriate files, tried to import product, same error. So, problem is, at least on my setup in version 2.0.2.

I decided to test it further. I downloaded v2.0.1, reuploaded files, tried to import product, error. v2.0.1 doesn't work, at least for me.

And, finally, I downloaded v2.0.0, done what needs to be done, product was imported without any problems.

Now I'm on v2.0.0, it's on my test site, but I certainly have problems with versions v2.0.1 and v2.0.2. On the other hand, v1.3.0 and version v.2.0.0 works as it should. Maybe this info help you pinpoint where the error is.
