Darkwaltz4 & DragonByte Technologies are proud to present the much anticipated and long awaited [DBTech] vBCredits II Deluxe

Why [DBTech] vBCredits II Deluxe?

vBCredits II Deluxe is the evolution of the points hack that thousands of vBulletin owners have only been dreaming of. Completely rewritten to incorporate three years of requests and improvements, vBCredits II Deluxe is the pinnacle of simplicity and power for casual activity and serious ecommerce engines alike!

vBCredits II Deluxe is the most advanced and feature rich points system ever created. It is the only points system produced by the creator and coder of vBCredits v1-1.4 ? accept no substitutes from impostors.

Why vBCredits II Deluxe is an evolution of the typical points hack of the last decade

The typical points hack installs a standard column to your user table. You are stuck with it, but if you are lucky you can make it switch entirely to a different one.

While vBC2D installs a standard currency, you are free to remove it, and quickly integrate many third party currencies without any technical knowledge. The whole thing is made to be working with multiple currencies especially when they need to work together and the third parties didn't put in a way for that.

The typical points hack installs a couple actions with hardly any way to disable, modify, or add on to them. How they work is different every time.


vBC2D is built around a modular display and action system so actions come in standard formats with standard attributes. They are easy to break off or install more without bothering the main hack for updates. The standardization allows for global features to be available without the need for repeated coding, as well as exposing an API for third parties - all encouraging widespread support. It also means that no matter who made your third party actionset, the settings will automatically be consistent and support all features.

The typical points hack will just blindly add points to user accounts, leaving abuse wide open.

vBC2D records every single transaction and comes with many powerful anti fraud techniques to prevent abuse and limit their effectiveness. Not only are there several ways to qualify user actions, but also ways of obfuscating the system so it is difficult for users to come up with ways to game the system.

The typical points hack is only for earning.

vBC2D supports charging as well as earning for all actions, making the need for a companion shop optional.

The typical points hack is a cryptic mess of settings and math.

vBC2D has been organized in a linear fashion where all related items are in exactly one place. All options are fully explained and you are only ever shown what is relevant. Even advanced and uncommon settings will not be in your way - unless you specifically want to use them. The system holds your hand and it is easy to see exactly what your settings have done and quickly revert them if needed.

The typical points hack gets bloated once you've set up many options.

vBC2D was written in a way to be scalable yet maintain all of its features. A careful watch over database and code was kept to ensure the least amount of impact at all times. So far three big boards have used vBC2D for several months and reported no change in their performance.

The typical points hack is just the same old thing every few months.

vBCredits 1 was the typical points hack, and I had three years of customer support and requests to know what works and what didn't, and what everyone had wished points hacks would do but it just wasn't happening. Finally, vBC2D was written from the ground up and every single request was included in a unified, ultimate package.

Ok. I'll PM you in just a sec. I managed to install it, but anyone who did not transfer their funds to savings lost everything.

What I really need help with is uninstalling all of the old vbcredits.com scripts. I can't just hit the uninstall because it requires an "installer.php" file.

Anyways, PM is on it's way.

I'm customizing my postbit_legacy and I can't seem to find the bit of code I need in order to manually add the postbit information to my desired location.

Can anyone help me out with that?

Also, I noticed that no one has vbcredits. They have all been reset. Any way to recalculate all vbcredits awarded since the opening of our forums?

The system works with template hooks now, you would move those around.

Yes, in the account manager. More instructions for using it are here: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/threa...lating-Credits

Thanks man.

I'm trying to put it in my postbit. I found that the hook is "credits_display_postbit_row" but I don't know how to use that.

Here is the piece of code and my attempt to plug it in.
Code:
<vb:if condition="$show['credits_post']">
     <div class="eti_postbit">
      <b>$vbphrase[credits]:</b><br /> <span id="cdt_{vb:raw post.postid}_{vb:raw post.userid}">credits_display_postbit_row</span> <vb:if condition="$show['credits_donate']">[<a href="credits.php?$session[sessionurl]do=manage&amp;u={vb:raw post.userid}#donate">$vbphrase[donate]</a>]</if> <vb:if condition="$show['credits_check']">[<a href="credits.php?$session[sessionurl]do=banking&amp;u={vb:raw post.userid}">$vbphrase[check]</a>]</vb:if>
     </div>
</vb:if>
As for the actions...man, I'm really confused on how to set each of them up. It's different from what I did with vbcredits I. I'm going to have to sit down and really take my time to figure this out.

Alright, I got the recalculating down. The reason why nothing I was doing was working was because I disabled the actionset thinking it was a part of the old vbcredits.

The actual mod is labeled as "DB Tech:...", whereas the actionset is labeled as just "vbcredits..."

If I can make a recommendation it would be to provide us with a video tutorial on how to set up the mod. It could save me HOURS of trying to figure this out on my own. There are programs like screencast that record what you do on your computer's screen and allow you to automatically post it to youtube from there.

Other than that, I'm still waiting to get the mess from vbcredits.com cleaned up. I'd also like to see an answer to this post.

Hey guys,

I already had vBookie installed and after I installed this mod, together with the vBookie "fix", I get the following error when trying to post a new vBookie event:

Database error in vBulletin 4.0.8:

Code:
Invalid SQL:
SELECT user.userid, (0 + (user.credits)) AS cash FROM user AS user  WHERE cash < 50;

MySQL Error   : Unknown column 'cash' in 'where clause'
Error Number  : 1054
Request Date  : Sunday, November 14th 2010 @ 09:10:22 PM
Error Date    : Sunday, November 14th 2010 @ 09:10:22 PM
Script        : http://www.***.net/vbookie.php
Referrer      : http://www.***.net/vbookie.php
IP Address    : ***
Username      : ***
Classname     : vB_Database
MySQL Version : 5.0.77-community
Can anyone help me with this problem as soon as possible?
Thank you kindly in advance!

Regards,

Bozza

UPDTATE: I found my problem. "Give to the Poor" was set on 50 in vBookie settings but I didn't create a new event for it @ vBCredits. :-)

I haven't been able to translate a lot of phrases in the mod, it's not finding the phrases in the acp.
