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):

OK, I have a question about the scoring method. It doesn't seem to be adding up the scores correctly. I have it set to save the members high score only. Also, I have the points set up like this:

1st place - 10 points
2nd place - 9 points
3rd place - 8 points
4th place - 7 points
5th place - 6 points
6th place - 5 points
7th place - 4 points
8th place - 3 points
9th place - 2 points
10th place - 1 point

Even after clearing every score and starting over, it still doesn't seem to add up right. I noticed it when another member played the same game as me. I outscored him and that's when I noticed that the score looked a little off. I then added up the scores in my "player details" area and it was off. It says that I have (6) 1st place finishes, which is 60 points. Also, I have (3) 2nd place finishes, which is 27. If I add both of those, I come up with a total of 87 points. Why is the leaderboard showing me with 106 points?

This is something I need to understand...please. It doesn't make sense to me and it seems unfair. Also, members are saying that the scores are off and I cannot explain this to them.

Guys, I really need help on this if someone knows.

play in new window? why has this not been set as a default option in the v3 skin like it was in the original v3 arcade version these instruction for setting up are not very clear at all, the v3 skin looks much clearer and not so cluttered please add this feature as default on the next upgrade cheers i guess lots of others would like to see this also

I have added 2 games after the install and they are not showing icons next to the games. In IE they show missing image graphics where the icons should be. Where should the Icon graphics be located?

From what I see, there are many members who are asking for support...and receiving it. If this is not the place to go then where do I go?
