RPG Integration Hack /w Battle (BETA)

RPG Integration Hack BETA by Bitsys
(vBulletin versions 2.2.6?, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, and 2.3.0)

This hack combines several RPG hacks into one and adds a battle hack. The hacks included in this hack are:

• Zajako's Ultimate HP/MP Stats Hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=37720)
• Zajako's RPG Elements Hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=35318)
• Zajako's In battle hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=42715)
• Zajako's RPname hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=43651)
• DV class hack used with permission of J2K (aka the RPG Class Hack v3.3) ----- (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=43558)
• Mewtwo's/Rake's Original Itemshop v5 -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=38090)

In addition to re-releasing thse hacks, I have added features to all of them (or else there would be no point in re-releasing).

• The RPG hacks are now all editable via the admin control panel.
• The itemshop has been somewhat optimized and some fixes are included that reduce queries in showthread.php and itemshop.php . Also, Lesane's Store Hack has been integrated with the Itemshop. This can be toggled in the admin cp.

This means that the RPG hacks are database driven and have been partially integrated with the Itemshop. This was necessary in order to make a battle hack, which is also included.

Since most people are familiar with the RPG and Itemshop hacks, I will give a brief description of the Battle hack. If you want more information about either of the other two hacks, then refer to their original posts or download the .zip file and read the "readme.txt". If you are a visual learner, then you can scroll down to the second post in this thread, which contains the pictures of all of these hacks.


Battle Features:

• The battle format is turn-based.
• HP, AP, PP, and MA are automatically deducted based on what action a user takes, the damage dealt to an opponent, etc.
• Opponents in battle can use spells, one-handed weapons, two-handed weapons, shields, potions, or their fists.
• A battle is over when a combatant dies, retreats, or there is a draw. Battles can also be ended via the admin control panel.
• A wager can be set on a battle. Whoever wins the battle recieves the amount of money as specified in the wager. Outside bets are not supported yet.
• Battles can be either public or private, as determined by the admin control panel. If private, battles require a password and battles can not be browsed. If public, then any user can view any battle, but only the original combatants can fight.
• The results of a battle can be posted into a designated "Battle" forum, as specified in the admin control panel.
• Inactive battles can be pruned.

Getting started with the battle hack:

• In order to get items to disply in the item shop, you must select which items go with which RPG Type in the "Edit Item Type" Menu of the admin cp.
• In order to assign which weapon categories do what kind of damage in battle, you must go to the "Edit Category" link located in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. Select a Battle type for the category and save changes.
• In order to do damage to your opponent when in battle, you must assign the amount of damage each weapon does in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. The default damage is set to 0. The same principle goes for armor, potions, spells, shields, etc.

Please refer to the screenshots or "readme.txt" for more information.


Why is this a BETA hack?

I have tested the installation of this hack on vBulletin versions 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, and 2.3.0. However, because of the scale of this hack, there is plenty of room for errors. Therefore I am making the following disclaimer while this hack is in the BETA stage:


WARNINGS:

• Do not install this hack on a production board. Please keep this hack, while in the BETA stage, to a test board. The reason for not installing this on a production board is that I cannot provide upgrade instructions for going from one version of the beta hack to the next version of the beta hack. Also, this hack does not have an un-install script yet. So please remember, if you decide to install this on a production board, you are doing so at your own risk.
  
• Do not apply this hack if you already have ANY of the included hacks installed. Please refer to the list at the top to see if you have any of the conflicting hacks installed. Since I am asking that you install this on a test board right now, this should not be a problem since you can re-install a fresh copy of vBulletin in under 5 minutes, as a test board of course.
  
• There is currently no upgrade script for installing this over any of the included hacks. I will make one when this beta is completed.
  
• If you choose to install the postbit features, then an additional query will be added to showthread.php. This query is a SELECT COUNT(*) query and adds around .001 seconds to the page generation. If you don't like the idea of adding an additional query to showthread.php, then you have the option of not installing that part of the hack. See the install file for more information.

Miscellaneous:

The beta of this hack is free. The full/final release will also be free.

All installation instructions and credits are included in the attachment. If you find a bug or have problems, feel free to post them here and I will try to fix them. Please read the included readme file if you have questions. If you can't find the answer, then post your question here and I will answer it.

All hacks included in this hack have been re-released with permission of their original creators.

Screenshots are in the second post of this thread.


Installation:

Installation instructions are included in the .zip file.


ACKK! I NEED HELP!!!

If you are having trouble and need some help, please refer to the help documentation included in the .zip file. It is located in the "extra" directory.

If you need help and you have already installed the hack, make sure you check the RPG Manual link in the admin cp. Also, make sure you read the FAQ included with the manual.

MY THREADS STOPPED DISPLAYING CORRECTLY!!!
See if you are experiencing one of the following symptoms:

• All of my users are being labeled as "Guest" in the postbit template.
• No posts are showing up.
• None of the RPG variables will display in the postbit. The element/gender/class images are broken.
• I get database errors when I go to showthread.php

If you are experiencing one or more of the above problems, then your showthread.php file was not edited correctly by the installer. This problem usually occurs on boards with other hacks installed that modify the queries in showthread.php. Please go to https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=2261 and follow the instructions there.

Hi, I installed the latest version of you hack and I have some problems.[list=1][*]The scoreboard is acting wierd, when someone wins a battle it shows up on the scoreboard as lost, and when someone lost a battle it shows up as won.[*]I set minimum levels for items in the itemshop, but it's not working correctly. I have items for level 1 and level 2. If I am a level 2 character, the link for buying the items is showing up correctly, but when I try to buy a level 2 item it's just refreshing the page, not buying the item. But I can buy a level 1 item. Same as I am level 3, I can buy level 1 and 2 items, but level 3 items are not working.[*]The bank is not working, when I click the bank it's refreshing the page and nothing more.[*]users are gaining a massive amount of extra hp when leveling up. A level 1 character had about 35 hp and a level 2 character about 125.[/list=1]

I hope you can help me with these problems. Thanks in advance.

Bitsy, I am the forum admin for my site and because of the number of posts i have my hit power is 3300, how can I turn my hit power down? Everytime I fight someone I kill them with one hit.

Also is there a way to cap my hitting power

[mr e]

this is how you determine your attack

PHP Code:

$uregatt = $userlevel * $userstats[classregatt] * $userstats[raceregatt]; 


so just lower the classes attack or the races regular attack and you'll do less

[Bitsys]

Issy_X:
1. Thanks for finding that one. It will be fixed in the next version.
2. That bug has been reported and will be fixed in the next version.
3. In the Itemshop Options menu, did you choose to use Lesane's Store hack for money/points? If not, what are your itemshop options set to?
4. Still looking in to that one.

rrnolan:
Open battleupdate.php, find:

PHP Code:

$damagedone = floor(($weapon[damage] + $regattbonus) * $uelemod * $anger + $bonusattack - $armor - $regdefminus); 


After, it, add:

PHP Code:

if($damagedone > X) {
    $damagedone = Y;
} 


Replace X with the amount you don't want it to go over, and replace Y with the amount you want it to be if it goes over. If you only want it to apply to you, then add the following instead:

PHP Code:

if($damagedone > X && $bbuserinfo[userid] == Z) {
    $damagedone = Y;
} 


Replace Z with your userid and X/Y with the previous values as mentioned above.

I am still working on the formulas some more.

There's an error when using vbhacker...the changes made to showthread.php make it so that all user's info that is displayed in the postbit shows them as "guest", having no registration date, and having no post count, yet their other profile fields remain intact, and they really don't have guest status (ex. viewing their profile shows the correct info)

Some of the necessary file edits were not done during the vbhacker part of the installation. Did you get any errors during the install using vbhacker? Also, read below on how to make sure all of the file edits were done.

SpyGuy007:
Can you verify that all of the necessary file edits were made to showthread.php? To verify the edits, have vbhacker generate a text file of the hack. From there, look at all of the edits to showthread.php (they should be at the top) and make sure that they were done. In some instances, the edits were supposed to have executed twice (once for each instance of the code in showthread.php).

[saint_seiya]

Oh man, this is a pain in the ass, i think the auto installer misses a lot of files during the install of it isnce there are some other mods installed =|

[SpyGuy007]

Bitsys, I checked the edits that were supposed to be made to showthread.php and I did them exactly as they were written, but the error still comes up. If you look closely, there are two snippets of code that are to be replaced in the install that are the exact same, but are to be replaced with two different things.
