Arcade Pass Hack v3!

11/09/04 - Installer upgraded, nothing more.

11/05/04 8:28 PM EST: I botched the release because the important files "mysteriously" disappeared. I have updated the attachment.

11/04/04 9:00 PM EST: Changed to the Hack Installer System for installs. Just upload all the files in the upload folder and run forum/install/hack_install.php, chose Arcade Pass v3 and follow with the instructions. Should make a great replacement for the defunct HTL and the crappy TXT installer.

This is the Arcade Pass Hack v3. While it takes the name and feature set from it's predecessor, the Arcade Pass Hack 2.0 for vB2, the code has been improved, dependancies for the store removed, and the code completely re-written on vB3. The same code was then back-ported to vB2. Right now, the Arcade Pass Hack v3 supports both vB2 and vB3, and vbProArcade Beta 2 (for vB2) and the Arcade v3 (for vB3). When new versions of the arcades are released that have significantly changed code, another version of the Arcade Pass Hack v3 will be written for it.

The vB2 version contains a txt-based install as well as a vbHacker install, and the vB3 version uses the included Hack Installer System. Chose the appropriate vB version, then the appropriate arcade, and then chose the appropriate install and go from there. The arcadepass.php in the vB2 and vB3 folders must be uploaded to the root forums directory.

--------------------------------------

What does this hack actually do, you ask? It allows you, as an administrator, to force people to either buy an arcade pass for a set amount of points (point system not included - you'll have to install one from another hack and then configure this hack to use it) or make them pay a set amount per game (setable per game), or make them pay only if they do not have an arcade pass.

This hack also features a jackpot. First, a default jackpot (amount configurable) is set up, and after each game played, the cost of the game plus another amount (configurable per game) is added to the jackpot. If the user ends up with a high enough ranking (minimum ranking configurable), then they'll get a piece of the jackpot - if they are in 3rd place they'd get 1/3 of the jackpot, if they were in 50h, they'd get 1/50th of the jackpot, etc. Once someone takes 1st place, they default jackpot is entered back in and the lucky winner gets ALL of the jackpot.

This hack currently supports the following arcade/versions:

vB2:
vbProArcade Beta 2

vB3:
v3 Arcade (1.0)

I get this error when I click the link to buy a pass from inside the arcade:

Multiple Choices
The document name you requested (/uttstore.php) could not be found on this server. However, we found documents with names similar to the one you requested.

Available documents:

* /uttstore?do=a&aid=13 (common basename)

Please consider informing the owner of the referring page about the broken link.

The only uttstore file I can find is the includes/functions.uttstore.php one, it looks to me like it's looking in the wrong place ... any ideas/suggestions?

[edit]My goof, it's a simple fix, just rename uttstore.php to ushop.php on line 38 in the arcadepass.php file[/edit]

I was going to try and install this manually but I dont have a table 'games' ...any ideas?

ALTER TABLE `games` ADD `arcadepass_cost` VARCHAR( 20 ) NOT NULL ,
ADD `arcadepass_jackpot` VARCHAR( 20 ) NOT NULL ,
ADD `arcadepass_increase` VARCHAR( 20 ) NOT NULL ;

UPDATE games SET arcadepass_cost='20', arcadepass_jackpot='500', arcadepass_increase='5';

ALTER TABLE `user` ADD `arcadepass` BIGINT( 15 ) NOT NULL ;

Thats kind of weird since those queries alter the tables you should have . The games table should be there if you have got the v3arcade hack installed and the other one the user table is default in all installations of vbulletin3

Thanks for the reply

I dont have it because Im an idiot :laugh: I read it all wrong..I was looking at the wrong section. :nervous:

I have ibpro and was reading the v3arcade.

Is there anything like this for ibpro and Vb3? I want people to 'buy' the games and receive jackpots. I know there is something to 'pay to play' but didnt see anything like this in one package.

not that i currently know of V3arcade is the only one that has the arcadepass for the moment unless of course someone converts the current hack to work with it
