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 originally had ibproarcade installed on my 3.0 vbulletin and recently upgraded to 3.5 and then I installed this mod. Ever since I installed this, my arcade moves painfully slow. Can't sort out why. My entire site moves along nicely, but the arcade is deadly slow and I have highspeed modem.

Even when I turn the arcade OFF in the adminCP, and I go to load the arcade.php like an unknowing user would, it takes almost 20 seconds just for the page to load that says ERROR: Admin currently has arcade off.

Something is wrong and not sure what. I've currently turned all the switches OFF in the arcade for what it displays just to help the arcade move along a little better. But if I don't get it speeding back up to normal to what it was before I put this latest version mod, my users are gonna pack up and leave me.

Any ideas where I should start looking first?

[MortysTW]

Just a quick note to add.

I just had my buddy look at the database and he's telling me that alot of the tables are missing most of the necessary indexes and told me to come ask why that is. He said half the tables don't have any indexes and each table should have at least 3 or 4.

Any thoughts on that?

Chnaces are it is because of the upgrade. My arcade moves along normally, no slowdown at all. But then I did a fresh install. As far as the tables needing 3 or 4 indexes each, that's a first for me.

I love this arcade very smooth running with hardly any loads on the server.

But just a question I have been able to load up all games except the ones that are over 3 megs or so even manually loading them. It load up and gives me a page not found for some reason. Is there a limit on the swf size ? The games were runnning on a differant type of arcade so I know they work. Oh the games are for the vb3 if that makes a differance.

That's because you need to update your php memory limit in the php.ini file. If it is setting at 8 MB (default) that will cause the error. The file has to un-tar so you have the original file and the un-tarred file in memory and that will do it every time. I had the same problem until I made the memory limit bigger.

I will implement "multi-language-support", the current version is hardcoded for english and german, so you have to replace the english file with yours for now to have everything in dutch ...

I replaced the German version :alien:

[iceytdot]

aiit i searched this thread, but i can't seem to find the error i'm having posted i went through the first 15 pages, so if its been asked can someone please tell me which page/pages its around lol...

my problem is this the arcade works fine for me, i went to add a new game manually
it added the game & all that it shows it forum/arcade.php & is playable the only problems im having now is:

for that game theres no username showing as the champ
& the really big error is this one i get when i click Game Listing via Admincp

Fatal error: Cannot use object of type admin_functions as array in /home/ei/public_html/forum/admincp/arcade.php on line 795

this is whats in the file on that line

$top['name'] = "<a href='".$ADMIN['base_url']."index.php?showuser=".$top['champ_mid']."' target='_blank' title='".$top['champ_name']."s Profile'>".$top['champ_name']."</a>";

the rest of the functions in admincp work, just that one gives me that error,
game plays fine though lol

AMAZING hack BTW

Ok, So I installed this, spent the last hour reading all 66 or what ever pages and have not seen anyone having this exact problem. Now I *HAVE* been working for the last 17 hours so I could have missed something, but I highly doubt it.

I have installed fine - I get the adminCP I have verified the plugin's I have edited postbit and postbit legacy - I have edited Nav bar - I even checked arcade.php abd played with the root path - When I click on the link to go to the Arcade - I am brought to the index of my website - not even the index to my forum - yet it keeps the path to the arcade as the URL - as in http://digitalet.net/forum/arcade.php? that *should* go to an arcade - but it doesn't.

I am at my wits end and damn near ready to throw my wireless keyboard through my wall.

Please... someone help me before I donate more money to logitechs quest to take over the world. I do not have any portals installed, the index to my forums is the index from vb -- I am running the latest version of VB. I do not have vbseo installed.

[MrZeropage]

@d8tabyte:
you got PM, I will look on that

@MortysTW:
please contact me via PM, I guess you have a very large scoretable, I will try some hotfixing to help, please send me FTP-Access-Data so I can try

@iceytdot:
Which vBulletin and PHP version are you running ?
