page navigation system, allowing users to browse games by page. By default, 10 games appear per page.

History & Hack Information
- So, what is the v3 Arcade?
The v3 Arcade is exactly what the name implies - an online games arcade that offers seamless integration with your vBulletin forum.

The v3 Arcade is the first of the new generation of vBulletin additions. Back from its roots, the v3 Arcade is the vBulletin 3 edition of my original Arcade written in late 2002 (not to be confused with futureal's 'ProArcade', which was written during the Arcade's beta phase).

v3 Arcade Features Include:
? Integrated Flash gaming for vBulletin 3
? Advanced leader board system
? FULL Mozilla/Netscape Compatibility
? Moderation abilities for Mods/Super Mods/Admins
? PM & Email notification for events
? Advanced statistics for all users
? A higher level of security
? "Arcade Challenges", 1-on-1 contests between users
? Arcade awards system
? Automated and manual score pruning tools

This installation comes loaded with the following games:
? Tetris
? Snake
? Asteroids
? Chopper Challenge
? Space Invaders

If you have the source (.FLA) for a game that you want to use in the v3 Arcade, you can send the required files to john@v3arcade.com for conversion. (Providing permission has been given by the original author.) Within a reasonable delay, I'll post the converted game and installation script on vBulletin.org.


Testing
Tested on vBulletin 3.0.3, across multiple unhacked installations.


Thanks to...
? Kura: For helping out with vB3 difficulties!
? Erwin: Whose vB2 Flash Player inspired the original hacks
? Paul Neave: For providing the source for 4 of the standard v3 Arcade games


IMPORTANT NOTES
? If you do install this hack, please click on the INSTALL button. There are going to be some updates for this which you're really not going to want to miss!
? Each Arcade page has an Eovie Interactive and Flash Player link at the bottom. This is optional, but greatly appreciated.
? You may have noticed that this release of the v3 Arcade is not fully phrased. To phrase the arcade would require well over a hundred phrases to be added, making for a lengthy installation process! Futures version of the v3 Arcade will be phrased, with a more automated installation.
? And don't forget - BACKUP BEFORE YOU INSTALL!


Regarding the "ProArcade"
There has been a lot of debate on vb.org recently about the ownership of hack "concepts". My original Arcade hack (on which the v3 Arcade is based), was a progression of the my vBTetris Leaderboard hack - both of which came about before the ProArcade. I've spoken to Erwin regarding this, and he can confirm that this has always been an independent development; hence the v3 Arcade was authorised for release.

Fixes
If you're installing the Arcade from scratch, there are no fixes or updates to be applied. Simply follow the instructions in Installation.txt.
If you've already installed the Arcade, make the changes in Updates.txt.

Ok, i'm having a big problem and i'm not sure what i've done wrong.
When you go to my forum, above my logo, this is showing up:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line 2997

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line 2997

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line 2997

This is line 2997:

$user['calendarpermissions']["$calendarid"] |= $cpermissions["$usergroupid"];

When I click on any of the links, I get this:

File: my forum root directory/includes/init.php
Line: 27

This is line 27

echo "<br /><strong>Warning</strong>: $errstr in <strong>$errfile</strong> on line <strong>$errline</strong><br />";

Quick question, my frames in the Admin CP panel are messed up...... i posted on vbulletin.com but they told me to post here..... heres my problem.

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=136351

any ideas?

[iTaLiAnBoY165]

my arcade was working for about a month then it restricted me from going in all members are restricted but in permissions everyones alllowed to go in

[Gottcha]

tried installing on 3.0.7 and this is the error i get now

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home/fragtrad/public_html/forums/includes/functions.php on line 2018

this is line 2018:

$debughtml .= " (<a href=\"" . htmlspecialchars_uni(SCRIPTPATH) . iif(strpos(SCRIPTPATH, '?') '?')'?')'?')'?')'?')'?')'?')'?')=== false, '?', '?','?','?','?','?','?','?','?','&amp;') . "tempusage=1\">Template Usage</a>) (<a href=\"" . htmlspecialchars_uni(SCRIPTPATH) . iif(strpos(SCRIPTPATH, '?') '?')'?')'?')'?')'?')'?')'?')'?')=== false, '?', '?','?','?','?','?','?','?','?','&amp;') . "explain=1\">Explain</a>)<br />\n";

now my entire board is down

[Marco van Herwaarden]

What editor did you use to edit your files?

That line should probably be looking like the following:

PHP Code:

        $debughtml .= " (<a href="" . htmlspecialchars_uni(SCRIPTPATH) . iif(strpos(SCRIPTPATH, '?') === false, '?', '&amp;') . "tempusage=1">Template Usage</a>) (<a href="" . htmlspecialchars_uni(SCRIPTPATH) . iif(strpos(SCRIPTPATH, '?') === false, '?', '&amp;') . "explain=1">Explain</a>)<br />\n"; 


I think that if this line got changed, maybe more is wrong.

I suggest you backup this file, and try what happens if you reload the original.

[Gottcha]

used dreamweaver to edit the files.

i replaced the functions.php and board is back up

bump....

[smacklan]

I have sort of an odd problem...don't know if anyone else has encountered it. I originally had IProArcade installed and working on 3.0.7 site. I installed v3Arcade and the install went smooth, all settings for usergroup permissions and activation of the games are set...but when you go to the arcade no games appear. I uninstalled the game, re-installed the clean vB files with no IBPro changes in them, reinstalled v3 with the correct modifications and the same problem. Any help out there with this one??? Many thanks!
