the table and column ucash uses is

table:
[dbprefix]user

Colum:
uttpoints

replace [dbprefix] with whatever you chose when you were installing ie "vb3_" etc

Hey there, sorry to bother you but I have an error while trying to get anywhere on the main pages. It just displays an error page with this:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.8:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT triad_user.*,
PF_TABLE.PF_COLUMN AS points
FROM triad_user
LEFT JOIN PF_TABLE ON PF_TABLE.userid = triad_user.userid
WHERE triad_user.userid = 1

mysql error: Table 'flegacy_forums.PF_TABLE' doesn't exist

mysql error number: 1146

I've been away from using vBulletin for a very long time and have just recently come back, so please forgive my being dumb.

Thanks for your help rsj1!

In order to use this hack, you need a preexisting points hack installed already (to handle getting points, etc). Its bolded on the first post.

If you dont have one, I wrote an extremely simple one you can install, located at
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....9&postcount=18

On a side note, if you are wondering why I require you to include the prefix for the table name, is that how am I to know for sure if the points hack you are using fully obeys table prefix rules?

Hope everything has gone well for everyone, I'm working on tournaments

I wondered if this hack works in 3.5, too?

[Darkwaltz4]

this hack currently does not have a port for vb 3.5, however i intend for matches, trades, and inventories to be interchangable between the two as soon as there is one. Ive had some trouble working with the rc2 product system, and i suspect they will be fixed in rc3, so ill begin working on it then.

some features for tournaments being worked on:
private/public
fees
unlimited tiers
unlimited rounds
titles/descriptions
cap level
prizes per tier as points/cards

and some more stuff :-p just to keep everyone interested in updating

sounds cool, do you have any screenshots of recent changes or they pretty much the same, I plan to install it soon. Just bought a new 64bit system still formating it .. so I'm a tad out of commission for a day or so ..

Wow, that sounds incredible. Can't wait to use it on my 3.5

[Darkwaltz4]

well that makes the number one problem failure to configure/install a points hack :-p maybe ill do a new error message on the triad pages if it finds that the defaults are still set...i just assumed the db error spoke for itself :-/

PixelFX: well, to see the lists of changes, see the first post for the links to the update posts. the screenshots on the first post, and the zip posted on the second post, contain the screenshots of the current [2.7] version.

I'm working on tournament templates.
