ibProArcade is compatible to ibProArcade-Games (*wow* surprise!), v3arcade-Games and PNflashgames (www.pnflashgames.com, use POSTNUKE format).
PNflashgames does even offer Multiplayer-Games.


This Hack was originally done for Invision Power Board (IPB) by Chris Kelly and later adapted to work within vBulletin 3.0.x but had no real integrated AdminCP and even some illegal licensed Files from IPB included, so it was removed from official vBulletin-Sites.

ibProArcade for vBulletin comes along with a complete new AdminCP with even more options and improved functionality, has been bugfixed alot and I implemented some additional feature that where missing. All known security-issues found have been fixed.

ibProArcade is full compatible to PHP4 and PHP5 and works with all vBulletin 3.x.x (yes, 3.0.x + 3.5.x + 3.6.x + 3.7.x + 3.8.x) with all the same Scripts !
ibProArcade v2.7.5+ and later is full compatible to PHP5.6 and PHP7 and works with all vBulletin-versions 3.x/4.x with all the same Scripts !
PHP7.0/7.1 require minimum vBulletin 3.8.11 or 4.2.5 and ibProArcade v2.7.5+

Installation of ibProArcade is very simple and easy:

vBulletin 3.0.x
upload the Files
run the Installer
edit 4 PHP-Files
edit 3 Templates
add 1 new Template


vBulletin 3.5.x & 3.6.x & 3.7.x & 3.8.x & 4.x.x
upload the Files
import the Product-XML-File
edit 3 Templates



If you are upgrading from an existing Arcade, some information:

• For existing ibProArcade-Installations (v2.6.6+ and older) check the included Upgrade-Information (look in Archive)
• For existing ibProArcade-Installations (v2.5.1) just do everything like a fresh installation, your Games and Scores should be kept automatically
• For existing v3arcade-Installations (v1.0.x) for vBulletin 3.5/3.6 there is the converter available.

I want to say a big THANK YOU to everybody who helped in the 3 months of development, testing and bugfixing the initial v2.5.3+ (in alphabetical order):
---MAD---, Acers, Aftermath, beacher, dede1, E=mc?, Esposito, Feckie (Roger), Gemma, ggiersdorf, GrendelKhan{TSU, Huijting, jbd, JTyson, kall, kylek, MasterMaik, matrix, media4you, micheal332001, MissKalunji, MrLister, nitro, nullified, Okie, Paul_Hollibone, Scotty2k, Ski-Whiz, slank, Smoker, stangger5, Synper, soniceffect, Sooner95, tcs, Tekram, Willy, Wordplay and everybody else I forgot to mention here

I ask about. I'm not pointing fingers or naming names, but its like the "where do I get games?" question... I like to use google and I've found some places - its not that hard - Step 1) Go to google.com http://www.google.com Step 2) type in your search criteria Step 3) Click "Google Search" Step 4) trial and error (click on links). I've found a few games, but I've also put forth an effort to find them. In other complaints, I've found out that the answer is there, its just people aren't looking? When I first got vBulletin, I didn't go "HEY! HOW DO I DO THIS?????", I went through EACH and EVERY nook and cranny (sp?) and covered every square pixel to learn what I could BEFORE asking questions. Don't put the cart before the horse or you won't get anywhere.

Anyways, rant off - btw, Great job on the hack - my forum loves it.

j/k

i agree with you 100% i do the same as well my last resort would be posting a question..even though i'm a noob to this game i learned alot from reading the thread and applying the fix..which result to a complete satification i worked a hole lot of overtime to get my board up and with my members and staff trying to be patience awaiting for the site to be up and running it turned out to be a
sucess..i wish that everyone appreciated the coders for there hard work in giving us hacks to advance our boards....thank you coders :banana: :banana: :banana:

Yes I second that. the only addon I would ask for. Then members can use their points to play games.

all the best sir-idiot (i know it )

[davidw]

On the link, the instructions have you create a link manually in your navbar. If you are using this one instead of the other arcade, find it in your navbar and replace it with the link in the instructions. On the rest, I'm unsure of how to help you offhand.

[Synth]

Try uninstalling the other arcade from Admincp, if all else fails remove both arcades and then install this one. SHouldn't hurt your site at all

[sirblack]

[Xplorer4x4]

If you look up my post over at the vB3 Arcade forums you will get an answer that said soemthing to the extent that there not compatible.

Is anyone else having the problem with making the arcade winners show up in postbit and/or Postbit Legacy?.

[MrZeropage]

I will check the postbit-information with vB 3.5.2

and I try to do a global "PM Notification" in the Arcade Settings
