vB Flash Player 1.3 - Play Any Flash Game or Movie in vB!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: This used to be my vB Tetris 1.2 hack. It's been improved to play any Flash game or movie.

Purpose:
------------------

Install this hack ONCE and you can play any SWF game or movie totally integrated inside your forum! The name of the game or movie will be automatically shown in the page title, forum nav bar, and table heading! Just upload the SWF file to your forums directory and then use this URL (changing it to suit your forum directory):

http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

You can even set the width and height or background color of the Flash movie or game using the URL command line and parameters.

http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename&w=1024&h=768&b=000000

Good for those of you who run your site at HIGH resolutions. If you don't enter the width or height parameters, the Flash game or movie will automatically default to 600 x 400. If you don't enter the background color, it will default to your forum page background color. Only registered members will be able to play the game or movie - unregistered users will get the "no permission" log-in page.

Installation
-----------------------

EASY! Takes 1 minute. All you need to do is create 2 templates, and upload 1 file, and you're done. (No db queries to run, no php file edits! )

1) Create 2 templates with the text files included - just copy the contents of the text files into the templates with the same name:
flash
error_flash
2) Upload flash.php into your forum directory. The hack is finished!

Then, to play any Flash SWF Game or Movie inside your forum:
1) Upload the SWF file to your forum directory.
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)


Parameters:
--------------------

play = name of SWF file (without the .swf extension - make sure the capitals and small letters are the same!)
w = width of Flash movie or game
h = height of Flash movie or game
b = background color of Flash movie or game (in hex WITHOUT the # - eg. 000000 for black or FFFFFF for white)


To use default width and height is 600 x 400, or default background color which is your forum background color -
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

To set your own width or height:
http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename&w=1024&h=768&b=000000


Tetris
-----------

For example, with this hack I've included the Tetris SWF file that was included in my original tetris hack. This game is public domain. To let your members play good old-fashioned Tetris on your forums:

1) Upload tetris.swf to your forums directory (included in the zip file).
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=tetris
The Tetris Flash Game will play integrated into your forums. This works for any Flash game or Movie.

When the flash doesn't load, click on "REFRESH". The browser's cache can cause problems.

I'm at work.

PM me a test user account, and I'll log in and test it when I get home.

Give me about 4 hours until I finish work.

Also, you can try this:

In "flash" template, find:

Code:
<head>
UNDER it, add:

Code:
	<!-- no cache headers -->
	<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
	<meta http-equiv="no-cache">
	<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1">
	<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache">
	<!-- end no cache headers -->
This forces the page to refresh - see if that helps.

I have had an annoying problem that manifests itself with a "no permission" page coming up while going between the flash games and my vBPortal.

I have found the solution to my problem and it looks like there is a logic problem with the placement of "show_nopermission()" call. I know that people say they have no problem with this. But I have the problem and many of my members say they see the "no permission form" as well.

Anyway, logic of the original code is shown below:
PHP Code:
require('./global.php');

if (
$bbuserinfo[userid]) {
  if (
$play) {  
     
// do play stuff here
  

  else {
     
// do error stuff here
  
}
  
show_nopermission();  // looks like this [b]always displays ???[/b]

It looks like the show_nopermission() can only possibly be called in the block of code that is executed by a playing member. And, that's what I see. So, I decided to put the show_nopermission() where it made sense (at least to me).

In my revised version, I moved the show_nopermission() to the block of code that actually is executed, if the player has no permissions.
PHP Code:
//vB Flash Player 1.1 by Erwin Loh
//modified by: Mike Davis
//change: changed location of show_nopermission() and made it only

require('./global.php');

if (
$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==1) {
  
show_nopermission();  
}
else {
  if (
$play) {
      
// do play stuff here
  

  else {
      
// do no game selected stuff here
  
}
}
?> 
Even though I have it working now on my site, I'd like to know if this is a bug, in the original code, that has just been masked on some systems or if I'm misunderstanding how this works. Because with the original code, 1) showed the "no permission page" and 2) the show_permission() function seems logically, in the wrong place, anyway.

My correcte page.

ipscone is correct - I made a small mistake with version 1.1 of the flash.php file.

I misplaced a } tag.

I've changed the no permission section of flash.php - the easiest thing is to download the new version.

If it's working for you already with no problems, don't worry about it. Download the newest version from the 1st post, or in the next post.

I've updated the flash.php again, and made 2 versions - one for registered members only, and one open to all including guests - as requested by IceMalee.
