Anyone know why some games scores would be submitted and others wouldn't. So like archery submits a score fine, but then like bonnyballs just always reports a 0 no matter what the score is.

The permissions for you and that game have not been set to Score (as opposed to Play or Record)
- How do you set it to score - I've looked everywhere (I've found this - and I have all and any games open to all users - and set to Score) So now 2 outta 3 are eliminated on why I can't submit a score on some games.

The game has been set to not accept local scoring
- How do you set this

The game has been set to the wrong scoring system
- What is the right scoring system? (I assume the default it chooses is correct - IE ibProAcrcade) NOTE - I tested switching the scoring to V3 arcade and it froze the game - so I know this setting is at least right =)

Feel free to go look - http://www.firefightcompany.com/arcade.php

Every game was imported off ibProArcade.

Everything else works flawlessly making this an excellent addition!

Code:
Database error in vBulletin 4.1.9:

Invalid SQL:

        SELECT gid, gtitle
        FROM games_list
        WHERE gid IN (0Array);

MySQL Error   : Unknown column '0Array' in 'where clause'
Error Number  : 1054
Is 0Array a typo maybe? It is only happening sporadically it seems, and I haven't been able to curbtail if it's just the 'champions' or not.
That error is not related to vBArcade code - looks like ibproarcade. You should at least disable it.

Can you confirm that it would fix this issue and also is the permission manager a pro only feature?
Manage Permissions in vBArcade does take the secondary usergroups into account, and usergroup support is available in the lite version

Local scoring (and its correct implementation) is up to the individual game. Also, the importers usually will select the right properties for you.

If you've gone through the list here and you think you have everything covered, send me a PM with an admin login and I will diagnose further for you:

I uploaded tar files to the proper directory, yet it doesn't show when I go to import.
Read your documentation, can't you explain how to mass install games via ftp.

Go to admincp > vbarcade > import games

The Upload Games section will tell you the correct folder you can place all tar files into, as well as a note to make sure it is chmod 777. When you submit it, should list the games from within them.

If you want to verify your folder is correct and the files you are using are correct, upload it through the single file upload, and it should at least find the game, or display errors about the folder not being properly readable/writable.

If no error and no game, send me a PM and I will check the tar file you are using - ive run into bad tars in the past.

I'm having issues with the scoring too.

I've noticed that under the score section it's putting playtime.. Any ideas why?

Here are the current reasons why scores might not be submitting on your site:
  • The permissions for you and that game have not been set to Score
  • The game has been set to not accept scoring
  • The game has been set to the wrong scoring system
  • Your game session has not submitted the score
  • Your .htaccess file has not been altered correctly (usually indicated by errors during product import)
  • Your arcade is set to archive your non-best scores, and that was not your best score
The first bullet is most likely, the next two are USUALLY set automatically, MOST games will have a well-informed score submission time (though I've seen games that send without telling you, and some that don't actually send despite claiming it), the fifth bullet will usually throw installer errors/messages, and the last bullet should at least show some scores from somewhere being saved.

Do only specific games, or specific scoring systems, or all games not save scoring for yourself, specific usergroups, or everyone?

If you have checked all of those and think its all correct, please PM me an admin login and FTP so I can look into it.
i have do that all bud score dont save i see here i am not the only one with that problem

DragonByte Tech i like most of ur mods but there is a small problem wich im sure most of users dont like it to much lol and that problem is the copyrights they are to big an they show every page will be great if u can reduce them make it smaller and show it only in 1 page like most other mods.. this is my opinion anyways.. and for that reason i havnt install none of ur mods
