vbProArcade Beta 2
1/5/03: Beta 2 released 9/12/02: Beta 1.03 zip updated to include safe mode fix 9/3/02: Beta 1.03 released -- small bug fixes, see below 9/1/02: Beta 1 of vbProArcade has been posted. Please see below for installation instructions. Background Information vbProArcade is a fully-customizable Flash arcade add-on for vBulletin, complete with game-by-game scoreboards, forum integration, a "champions" system, statistics, and more. This is an extensive hack that is still in BETA form, and I don't recommend installing it if you are not willing to work through potential issues and future updates/upgrades! I am working on making the installation instructions as easy as possible, but it will probably be some time before it is perfect. Watch this post for updates as they happen, and check out screenshots from the list below. If you would like to see the hack in action, you may visit my Shadows of Namek forums. You will need to register to play, but you can view the scoreboards and the arcade itself as a guest. Credits This hack materialized thanks to work and help from a number of people and forums. Here they are:
So far, there are FIVE GAMES that work correctly with this hack. They are: Breakout Pacman Snake Space Invaders Tetris All five .SWF files are included in the release archive. There is now a Flash Games Development Thread for the purpose of modifying existing games to work with vbProArcade, or for creating new games to be compatible with vbProArcade. If you have a game that you wish to see modified but don't know how, post the .FLA source in that thread and hopefully somebody can assist you. Installation Instructions Download the file attached to this post, unzip it and familiarize yourself with the contents BEFORE doing anything. There are TWO separate files worth reading, the Documentation and the Installation Instructions. I recommend that you read both BEFORE doing anything else. Once you have done this, the instructions to be followed are contained in vbproarcade-install.txt. Follow them as precisely as possible. If you encounter an error somewhere, it is likely that you missed a step or made a small error. Please double-check your work BEFORE posting about problems here. And it cannot be said enough: read that file before you do anything, and if you are unsure of something, please post your question(s) before attempting to install the hack. Problems and Fixes/Workarounds (as of 1/5)
Here is the list of stuff that I know does not work. I will be working towards correcting these bugs BEFORE adding new features for the next release.
Here is the list of posts from this thread that contain screen shots for the new version. Check them out!
This is the stuff that is in progress for future release:

this is a pretty cool hack.
but i found it a pain in the ass, to copy / paste 23 templates. so i converted them all to files. and now you can add them with a few clicks (you need firefly's template backup system) https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=33072 the template files are attached to this post. I hope this templates can be attached to the hack. It saves some time adding them. |

Hi it seems that the hack with a mac goes to the main directory and it works differently in for PC users.
Since it looks for yourdomain.com/proarcade.php instaed of forums/proarcade.php I added this PHP Redirect and put it in the / that gets the 404 - Now my mac users go back into the aracde and can play. The scores are high so I dont know if they actually get the high score screen. Since can't beat my users scores I dont think that would work since even a low score can comment is there an action or little more some one could suggest to add to make the scoreboard / comments come up anyway - put this where you need to put it and save it as proarcade.php This simple redirect works midnightz |

I've installed it on vB 2.2.9. Where are the king/user detail icons though in the zip file? I had to stick substitute images in.
One person tells me if they're using Opera they can play the game but their score isn't logged. |
