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 am very new at all of this. I tried to install and I uploaded all the files customized the templates and the arcade menu never showed under admincp menu. I am not real clear on what my forum root directory is and what my forum root folder is. I know I will get some laughs and thats all good but some help would be cool too. Thanks

[SliceofLife]

I uploaded this onto my vBul and it works not a problem. Thank you so much.

Where would I get extra games for this?

Take notice to the _EN at the end of the file, cuz the lang_Arcade.php file is for a whole other set of phrases.

Around line 184 you will find:


Just make sure you don't use any words like DON'T CAN'T WON'T, the ' will goof things up. Make sure to leave the " on the front and end too and do not remove the comma on the very very end. So basically just edit the words in between the " "

Not positive, but when you are doing your link at the end or any type of HTML that needs a pair of " " around it, such as src="http sorta thing, make it with a single so it looks more like < src = ' http url goes here ' and target = '_blank ' > type of setup

MortysTW

Ive ammended the default text :up: but I couldnt suss out the syntax to add a hyperlink. I looked for an example within the file but there wasnt one

I have to admit Im not a coder

Feel free to spell it out to me

This is what I what Im trying to achieve:

I have 3 types of visitors that are allowed to play games

- Guest - Play games in categories X and Y, not allowed to save score
- Members - Play games in categories X and Y, can save score
- Sponsor Members - Play games in categories X, Y and Premium categories, can save scores

When a guest or a member clicks a game belonging to the Premium category they get the message "Your usergroup is not allowed to play any game from that category"

Would it be possible to change that message to something like " Only Sponsor Members have access to Premium games. To become a Sponsor or to learn more Click Here"

Many Thanks

Hello,

I downloaded and installed this game, it works fine, but it sends no scores, because I don't find any submit button or anything else.

This is the game:
http://www.pnflashgames.com/module-p...y-id-329.phtml

Can anybody help me?

Nice greetings,

Klaus

Instructions that come with arcade say:

Start off by uploading all the files needed.


The entire /arcade folder to your forum's root directory
The files in the /admincp folder to your forum's /admincp folder
The files in the /includes/xml folder in your forum's /includes/xml (create if not existing) - those files are needed for a later Upgrade to vBulletin 3.5.0
arcade.php and holdsession.php to your forum's root folder
installer.php to your forum's root folder

Next Chmod the /arcade/ directory and all its subfolders to 0777

Next run the installer.php from the root directory.
After the Installer is finished, remove the installer.php from your server.

When they talk about ROOT, think of a tree, and the roots are at the bottom and everything goes up and branches out from there.

So your SITE root would be the very bottom. If you were to think web page address, it would be www.yoursite.com. And when they say your FORUM's ROOT, it would be like you had another tree called FORUM. So the address of your forum ROOT would be yoursite.com/forum/. If they said ARCADE ROOT, that would be at yoursite.com/forum/arcade/. Make sense?

Now when you say you "tried to install", what part went wrong that made it a TRY and not a success? The line about run the installer.php from the root directory is referring to you placing that installer.php at yoursite.com/forum/installer.php. Just like you would have done with your arcade.php and holdseesion.php.

So basically everything if looking at addresses would look like:
site.com/forum/arcade.php
site.com/forum/holdsession.php
site.com/forum/arcade/
site.com/forum/admincp
site.com/forum/includes/xml

If you placed everything correctly, to run the installer, you need to go to yoursite.com/forum/installer.php and follow the steps.

Good luck and being that you are new, please use the support forums from now on. Not this thread. The link is in giant green text in the description of this mod at the top of the page.

Nice greetings,

I dont think that you will find the answer here as this thread is for the Arcade Mod and not for any games that you download/aquire.

However:
The Arcade mod contains a file called PNflashgames.txt that says
ibProArcade is compatible to PNflashgames, some information about it:

> download the games at www.pnflashgames.com in POSTNUKE format
> PNflashgames can submit their score and play again without reloading the page or going back to ibProArcade

to install a PNflahgames-Game, do the following:

1) locally unzip the archive
2) upload the .swf-file to /arcade
3) create two .gif-files (gamename1.gif and gamename2.gif) based on the .gif provided with the game
4) upload the two .gif-files to /arcade/images/
5) enter AdminCP -> Arcade -> Add Game and manually add it (using the first upper section)

If you are looking for more games search Google for "vbulletin games"

Hope this helps

Regards

VinylJunky

Hello,

I did it like this way in the txt-file.

And it seems to work fine in the arcade, but it doesn't submit the score, that's the only thing...

Nice greetings,

Klaus

Nice greetings,

You'll find that on alot of pn-flash games. Its not the fault of this mod, its the way the game was built. I personally created a category for games that "don't work but are playable" in my arcade. Simply to play but don't expect any score keeping sorta thing.

We can't help you. Its a bad game. Not your file, but the actual game itself.

PS. Vinyl, I'm not ignoring you. Trying to find time to play around a bit and troubleshoot.
