RPG Integration Hack v3.5.1 Patch Level 2
[/high]
RPG Integration Hack (RPG hack for short) v3.5.1 is the first step into the next generation of the classic hack compiled by Bitsys. For those that are unfamiliar with any of what I mentioned above, heres a quick rundown of what this hack is and does.
The RPG hack adds a whole new level of fun to a forum, by allowing uses to duke it out in a fierce battle. Use items to turn the tide of the battle, or use powerful spells to bring down an opponent. Or you can just rely on the good old sword to cut your enemy down to size!
Create or join a clan to amass an army and conquer the boards.
Patch yourself up after a hard battle.
Feeling lucky? Go bet on the lottery!
No RPG forum should be without. Administrator controls every single aspect of how the hack works, right down to every item and an user's level/stat gains.
[high]Important Notices:[/high]
You need an external Cash mod installed for this mod to function properly.
uCash/uShop or vBPlaza, either will do
The Cash mod need to use the `user` table
You need to configure a setting in the RPG Integration Hack - Cash Options after install/upgrade
[high]Known Issues:[/high]

These are all issues that will be addressed in upcoming versions.

And last, but not least: [high]NO FILE EDITS![/high]
This mod is pretty much unsupported now, so I guess it's up to us to help keep it going.
From what I understand, 3.6+ has trouble with the mod unless you install it in 3.5, then upgrade to 3.6. Kinda a pain in the butt, but I believe others have it working. I'm still on 3.5, so it's been rather easy for me.
I use iCash and it seems to work fine. It works for any points system as long as you put in the proper "money" names in.
My two biggest concerns are:
1. The invalid battle bug users get, when they get stuck in a battle with monster in the monsterarena
2. The invalid battle bug users get when they can't battle another person
3. And one of the biggest, the fact that any secondary categories don't work. For example, I have created 3 additional Spell Slots for the users, so they can have a choice of 4 different spells at one time. The first spell category works great...but every additional spell slot doesn't work. That goes for potions, items, etc. If I have more than one, no dice. This is kinda frustrating, as I think the base number is kinda limited since they can't select more than one item in battle.
If anyone has any fixes to this....I would appreciate the help. And obviously, there's other people that need to know as well, so if you know how to handle these situations, then please feel free to help us out.
I have an issue. I tried to install without the patch at first and got hung up at step 6. I came back and got the patched files uploaded those and restarted the installer. Now I get stopped at step 4, becuase tables have already been altered. Here is an example of the errors im getting;
Invalid SQL:
ALTER TABLE `usergroup`
ADD `rpgpermissions` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;
I tried to go in and manually remove the tables, columns, that need to be reset to normal before trying to re-install but I have no idea what tables needed to be dropped aside from rpgperms, items, inventory, and rpg. Any help?
