In your root forum in the arcade section, you have two sections: .tar and .zip. Any file that is a tar goes in the tar file and the zip files to into the zip file. You can just drag them in and they should start uploading...

Now, connect to your site via ftp, navigate to your arcade folder, ex. /forums/arcade/. .zip files are v3Arcade games, and should be placed in the zip folder. .tar files are IBPA games, and should be placed in the tar folder. Goto add games in the arcade menu of your control panel and scroll down to the tar and zip sections. Click install by the game to install it. I just wanted to get that out for anyone else who needs help, even though PE probably doesn't need it anymore.  As far as converting zip to tar, I don't know. I thought not a first, but I could be wrong, though it may require changing the v3 info file into a IBPA one. I will try when my site is back up, but I am guessing the answer will be no, without actually editing the swf directly. Edit: Nope, it doesn't work.

I was trying to figure out what your zip problem is because you should get it figured out, but you can still add games manually and as long as they are converted for IBPA/v3 the scores will be integrated with IBPA. So here is how you do that. Unzip the file. Now for IBPA, you should have at least a .swf (game) file, two images and a .php (game info) file. For v3 you should at least have the same but with a .txt (game info) file instead of the php file. At the most, there may also be other swf files or another folder. Now upload everything but the txt/php file and the images to your /forums/arcade/ folder. Then upload the images to your /forums/arcade/images/ folder. Next, in your vB admin control panel, expand the arcade menu and select 'Add Game'. This opens the arcade.php page. At the top you will see two boxes for adding games manually titled "Required Info" and "Optional Info". Open the game's info file (txt/php) on your PC with notepad, wordpad or whatever. The first field, Game Name, is the title of the game as it will appear in your arcade. In a v3 txt info file, it is listed as 'Title', and in an IBPA php info file it is listed as 'gtitle'. So for a game called Zombie Lunch, you would enter: Game Name Code:
Zombie Lunch Code:
yes Depends on the game, but most likely: Code:
High (Your preference) Code:
Default This is the game file title, for v3 and ibProArcade it is listed under 'gname'. Code:
zombielunch The game file will mention if you have to set decimal points. Leave it at 0 if it isn't mentioned. For my fictional game, Zombie Lunch, the v3 game file says "set decimal points to 1". Code:
1 This is the color of the background in the flash window, 000 (black) by default. Code:
000 Game Height This is the size of the vB window the game will be loaded into, based on the size of the game. In v3 txt file it is listed under 'size'. The first number is the width and the second is the height. In IBPA php file it is listed under 'gwidth' and 'gheight'. Zombie Lunch is width 700 by height 550: Game Width Code:
700 Code:
550 Good luck. Let me know if you have any problems.  EDIT: Btw, I think I figured out why they aren't working. It is likely that the zip files you have are not actually converted for ibProArcade/v3. The game file itself has to actually be created/edited so the scores function in IBPA/v3. You can still use these games by following the manual install, but the scores will not function. I can tell you if it is converted if you copy and paste the txt file with the game into a post. To get games that work, follow the info I sent to you in a PM earlier. I will be AFK, so I hope you get it manually installed.
