It seems impossible to upload games. I upload the .swf files, set the File Path in Game Tools to the folder I uploaded them to, then hit Start. It NEVER finds the games.

"Extract and upload the games you want to import into the arcade/games folder." - There is no "arcade" folder in the forum root, so what is this talking about? Why does it tell me WHERE to upload my games to, then offer the chance to SPECIFY my chosen file path? Surely that is a conflict.


Let's take a look at the steps.

1. Extract and upload the games you want to import into the arcade/games folder. Make sure that you CHMOD the following folders to 0777 for this import:
forumroot/admincp/games
forumroot/images/arcade
forumroot/games

Well, my admin is not located at "admincp", but "hq". Is this a problem, will this kill things? Secondly, as I mentioned, there is no such folder www.domain.com/forumroot/arcade/.

2. File Path
The location of your uploaded files, in relation to your root forum folder. It should be readable AND writeable by your web server (usually chmod 0777).

So above, I was asked to upload the new games into an imgainary folder forumroot/arcade/games. Now, I am prompted to set the location of my uploaded games, relative to my root forum. Which is correct? Where on earth am I supposed to upload the games to?

3. Importing Games
There are no more games to import.

Same story, no games.

Can anyone help?
