RPG Integration Hack BETA by Bitsys
(vBulletin versions 2.2.6?, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, and 2.3.0)

This hack combines several RPG hacks into one and adds a battle hack. The hacks included in this hack are:

In addition to re-releasing thse hacks, I have added features to all of them (or else there would be no point in re-releasing).
  • The RPG hacks are now all editable via the admin control panel.
  • The itemshop has been somewhat optimized and some fixes are included that reduce queries in showthread.php and itemshop.php . Also, Lesane's Store Hack has been integrated with the Itemshop. This can be toggled in the admin cp.

This means that the RPG hacks are database driven and have been partially integrated with the Itemshop. This was necessary in order to make a battle hack, which is also included.

Since most people are familiar with the RPG and Itemshop hacks, I will give a brief description of the Battle hack. If you want more information about either of the other two hacks, then refer to their original posts or download the .zip file and read the "readme.txt". If you are a visual learner, then you can scroll down to the second post in this thread, which contains the pictures of all of these hacks.


Battle Features:
  • The battle format is turn-based.
  • HP, AP, PP, and MA are automatically deducted based on what action a user takes, the damage dealt to an opponent, etc.
  • Opponents in battle can use spells, one-handed weapons, two-handed weapons, shields, potions, or their fists.
  • A battle is over when a combatant dies, retreats, or there is a draw. Battles can also be ended via the admin control panel.
  • A wager can be set on a battle. Whoever wins the battle recieves the amount of money as specified in the wager. Outside bets are not supported yet.
  • Battles can be either public or private, as determined by the admin control panel. If private, battles require a password and battles can not be browsed. If public, then any user can view any battle, but only the original combatants can fight.
  • The results of a battle can be posted into a designated "Battle" forum, as specified in the admin control panel.
  • Inactive battles can be pruned.

Getting started with the battle hack:
  • In order to get items to disply in the item shop, you must select which items go with which RPG Type in the "Edit Item Type" Menu of the admin cp.
  • In order to assign which weapon categories do what kind of damage in battle, you must go to the "Edit Category" link located in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. Select a Battle type for the category and save changes.
  • In order to do damage to your opponent when in battle, you must assign the amount of damage each weapon does in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. The default damage is set to 0. The same principle goes for armor, potions, spells, shields, etc.
Please refer to the screenshots or "readme.txt" for more information.


Why is this a BETA hack?

I have tested the installation of this hack on vBulletin versions 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, and 2.3.0. However, because of the scale of this hack, there is plenty of room for errors. Therefore I am making the following disclaimer while this hack is in the BETA stage:


WARNINGS:
  • Do not install this hack on a production board. Please keep this hack, while in the BETA stage, to a test board. The reason for not installing this on a production board is that I cannot provide upgrade instructions for going from one version of the beta hack to the next version of the beta hack. Also, this hack does not have an un-install script yet. So please remember, if you decide to install this on a production board, you are doing so at your own risk.
  • Do not apply this hack if you already have ANY of the included hacks installed. Please refer to the list at the top to see if you have any of the conflicting hacks installed. Since I am asking that you install this on a test board right now, this should not be a problem since you can re-install a fresh copy of vBulletin in under 5 minutes, as a test board of course.
  • There is currently no upgrade script for installing this over any of the included hacks. I will make one when this beta is completed.
  • If you choose to install the postbit features, then an additional query will be added to showthread.php. This query is a SELECT COUNT(*) query and adds around .001 seconds to the page generation. If you don't like the idea of adding an additional query to showthread.php, then you have the option of not installing that part of the hack. See the install file for more information.


Miscellaneous:

The beta of this hack is free. The full/final release will also be free.

All installation instructions and credits are included in the attachment. If you find a bug or have problems, feel free to post them here and I will try to fix them. Please read the included readme file if you have questions. If you can't find the answer, then post your question here and I will answer it.

All hacks included in this hack have been re-released with permission of their original creators.

Screenshots are in the second post of this thread.


Installation:

Installation instructions are included in the .zip file.


ACKK! I NEED HELP!!!

If you are having trouble and need some help, please refer to the help documentation included in the .zip file. It is located in the "extra" directory.

If you need help and you have already installed the hack, make sure you check the RPG Manual link in the admin cp. Also, make sure you read the FAQ included with the manual.

MY THREADS STOPPED DISPLAYING CORRECTLY!!!
See if you are experiencing one of the following symptoms:
  • All of my users are being labeled as "Guest" in the postbit template.
  • No posts are showing up.
  • None of the RPG variables will display in the postbit. The element/gender/class images are broken.
  • I get database errors when I go to showthread.php

If you are experiencing one or more of the above problems, then your showthread.php file was not edited correctly by the installer. This problem usually occurs on boards with other hacks installed that modify the queries in showthread.php. Please go to https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=2261 and follow the instructions there.


Add-ons:
The following add-ons are not included in the default installation. You must apply these add-ons after you have installed the hack successfully.

Member profile add-on
This add-on let's you display the user's RPG Stats in their member profile. See the .zip file for the add-on. It is located in the "Member Profile Add-on" directory.

Auto-update stats after posting
This add-on automatically updates the user's stats after they make a post, instead of having to click on the update stats button in the user cp. This add-on involves 2 file edits. The add-on is located at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...452#post356452

Boh, it is against the rules to post a vb file like that.

When I said "send it to me", I was referring to a PM.
It's much too long to send by PM..

Ok, I guess it wasn't the different versions of Vb software. I got the same problems. You see, in forum display, the links show up. I click on the links (to the thread) and the postbits don't show up. Now go back to the forum display, I click on the little icon that goes to the last post. The post bit does show up BUT only the last post. Now in the post bit it puts me up as guest.

Any ideas?

In heal.php, battle.php, battlefight.php, and itemshop.php, find something like:
PHP Code:
If ($bbuserinfo[userid] != 0 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 3 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 4 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 1){ 
All you have to do is add:
PHP Code:
&& $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != X 
with X being the usergroup ID.

How does it look weird? What do you mean by the store hack being gone? Is all of it gone? Part of it? Which parts?

If I had any confidence in the security of the monetary system, then that would be cool

See if you are experiencing one of the following symptoms:
  • All of my users are being labeled as "Guest" in the postbit template.
  • No posts are showing up.
  • None of the RPG variables will display in the postbit. The element/gender/class images are broken.
  • I get database errors when I go to showthread.php

If you are experiencing one or more of the above problems, then your showthread.php file was not edited correctly by the installer. This problem usually occurs on boards with other hacks installed that modify the queries in showthread.php. Please do the following:

In showthread.php, find the following code 2 times:
PHP Code:
attachment.attachmentid,attachment.filename,attachment.visible AS attachmentvisible,attachment.counter 
and AFTER it, add the following (ONLY IF IT IS NOT THERE ALREADY):
PHP Code:
,
user.ma AS uma,user.hp AS uhp,user.pp AS upp,user.ap AS uap,items_options.pointfield,items_options.lesanestore,battle_options.namefield,battle_options.exprate,battle_options.privacy AS battleprivacy,items_user.*,battle_stats.*,rpg_race.name AS rpgracename,rpg_race.alignment AS rpgalignmentname,rpg_classf.name AS fclassname,
        rpg_classf.folder AS fclassfolder,rpg_classm.name AS mclassname,rpg_classm.folder AS mclassfolder,rpg_element.name AS elename 
(Yes, the comma at the very top is there on purpose. Do not forget to place the comma in showthread.php or else you will get database errors.)

In showthread.php, find the following code 2 times:
PHP Code:
FROM post
".iif($forum[allowicons],'LEFT JOIN icon ON icon.iconid=post.iconid','')." 
and CHANGE it to the following (ONLY IF IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THIS ALREADY):
PHP Code:
FROM post, battle_options, items_options
".iif($forum[allowicons],'LEFT JOIN icon ON icon.iconid=post.iconid','')." 
In showthread.php, find the following code 2 times:
PHP Code:
LEFT JOIN userfield ON userfield.userid=user.userid 
and BELOW it, add the following (ONLY IF IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THIS ALREADY):
PHP Code:
LEFT JOIN items_user ON items_user.userid=user.userid
LEFT JOIN battle_stats ON battle_stats.userid=user.userid
LEFT JOIN rpg_classf ON rpg_classf.id=user.rpgclass
LEFT JOIN rpg_classm ON rpg_classm.id=user.rpgclass
LEFT JOIN rpg_element ON rpg_element.elementid=user.element
LEFT JOIN rpg_race ON rpg_race.raceid=user.rpgrace AND rpg_race.alignmentid=user.alignment 
Do not forget to do ALL of the above edits 2 times!

After doing all of this, run DB Fix.

If all of the code is there, then you may have a different problem. However, doing the above edits will rectify problems in 95% of the cases.

Nope that didn't work bah

As far as the other problem... I've had so many in the last while that I'll let it be until it happens again...

Any other ideas... it's not just the images not showing up, its also the stats and money and crap

EDIT: the file edits weren't there
EDIT: the gender images have always worked
