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):

This is off my todo list.

MrZeroPage's last post was Jan 31st. This mod has been upgraded consistently since 2005, and was just updated in December, so let's not overstate the matter. Most of the issues mentioned in this thread have fixes posted in and around the ibProArcade subforum. It's just people pay no attention to the big green letters in the first post that says not to ask for support in this thread.

The coder can only answer the same question so many times before he expects you to search it out for yourself. How exactly do you expect the coder to edit YOUR index file? Think about it.

Thanks in advance.

I'm having trouble getting torunaments to appear on a forum with dark background. looks like it's there but you can't see it.

Has this one come up before ? Any suggestions anyone ?

[BiZiMDiYaR]

Hi,

Will there be a proper update to VB4 ? As nothing for the CMS and also the games are not always saved, as mentioned in last topic. I hope this will be updated very soon, so we are able to check this further .


Thanks.

I am having trouble installing this. (sorry I'm a newb).

When I try to upload the arcade folder to my webserver, it always loads like 70-80 of the files (of the 4000?) and then stops, and then I get timed out of the server.

Any idea why this may be? Thanks in advance.

[Jabong82]

Nevermind I was able to install it (somethin was buggy with my comp).

That being said I have a new problem.

On my homepage (www.mydomain.com), I get this screen and can't seem to move it:



Anyone know how to get rid of it?

One would expect the Add-On to be updated and the issues corrected. He has not even updated the original Posting to reflect compatibility except for in 1 place. The Original post is sloppy and you can not deny that, huge gaps, incomplete compatibility list. One would also assume that said Coder would not have to answer to a problem more than once if said problem was corrected in the Add-On.

Secondly he has no posted ANYWHERE since Jan 31st. That includes the Respective support forums.

I commend you on your support for a fellow coder, however none of my statements are incorrect.

Try batch uploading. Instead of one big upload, upload a few folders at a time. I have had the same issue on actually uploading the VB 4.x folder and files before.
