INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_forumcut', '160', '', 6, 'toptopics', '150', 0, 0);

but it should be this:

INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_limit', 'toptopics', '5', '5', '', 7, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_titlecut', 'toptopics', '120', '120', '', 5, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_highvote', 'toptopics', '1', '1', 'yesno', 4, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_mostreplies', 'toptopics', '1', '1', 'yesno', 2, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_mostviews', 'toptopics', '1', '1', 'yesno', 3, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_noguest', 'toptopics', '1', '1', 'yesno', 1, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO `setting` VALUES ('toptopics_forumcut', 'toptopics', '160', '160', '', 6, 0, 0);

Interesting! I wrote this hack on dev board (3.0.7) on my PC, then installed it on v.3.0.5, I got that same problem as you guys described and I had to manually change those values. I doubt if the structure of vb setting table got changed since version 3.0.5.
