Add-On Releases - v3 Arcade - Professional vBulletin Gaming (vB4)

v3 Arcade is now a member of the vBadvanced family!

http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=47571

The support forums & data from v3Arcade.com have been merged into the vBadvanced.com site.



=================================
v3 Arcade for vBulletin 4.x.x
For vBulletin 3.x.x, please see here.
=================================

Please note... until v3Arcade.com is upgraded to vBulletin 4, some demo sites can be found here. Also, because of styling changes introduced in vB 4.0.8 to allow customized user profile pages, this version requires 4.0.8+ to be installed.

"v3 Arcade" is the premiere arcade system written specifically for vBulletin. It's coded from scratch - not a port of an older version - and because it was coded specifically for vBulletin it uses the product system for code modifications & utilizes AJAX technology throughout. Here's a brief rundown of the features in this version of v3 Arcade.

v3 Arcade for vBulletin 4 also has some feature differences versus v3 Arcade for vBulletin 3. Currently that list includes....

• The separate Arcade navbar has been replaced with the options being moved up to the standard vB navbar. Be sure to turn on the navbar link! (ACP => v3 Arcade => v3 Arcade Settings => v3 Arcade General Settings => Navbar Link Position)
• When viewing a game categories other than the 'All' category, the category name will now be included in the navbar breadcrumbs.
• Added a new template "v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy_wrapper" to allow adding some HTML around the arcade award images in the postbit.
• The category tabs shown on the main page will use the vB styling instead of their own defined styles. As we go forward the vB4 version of v3A will lose more & more of it's custom styling and instead use more of the new vB4 styling features elements.
• New option to display a "New" game category tab that will display all games in newest to oldest order. In addition to the new tab a "New Games" link will also be shown in the vB "What's New" navbar link. (ACP => v3 Arcade => v3 Arcade Settings => v3 Arcade Homepage Settings => Display "New" Category Tab)

Thanks that worked. For those tabs. Now the Member Profile tabs are messed up instead.

Is there any way they can all look the same?

Try changing the stylevar tabslight_selected_background - not sure if that will help you with what you are trying to do though because the tabs for the arcade and MEMBERINFO use the same css.

To get around it, you may need to rename the tabslight class in the v3ARCADE_MAIN, make a copy of the code in vbulletin.css that I mentioned then rename the instances of tabslight to whatever you call the new class in v3ARCADE_MAIN - for example if you renamed the class as <dl class="arcade_tabslight">, you would make an exact copy of the code under /* LIGHT-TABS */ in vbulletin.css but change all the tabslight to arcade_tabslight.

Sorry, I've not had any time yet. Back at work now so my online time has been a little limited. I'll try and look sometime tomorrow.

Hi Gemma,

I followed your instructions in the above post to get the trophies to show up below the user avatar in the thread user post bit info instead of on the right hand side of it.

It did move it but put it above the avatar instead.

Do you have any suggestions on how to get it below?

Have you had a chance to take a look? .:fingers_crossed:.

Any thoughts on what would cause this error with a fresh install?

Sorry CharlieDelta I haven't. Been dealing with some personal stuff and now got to rest up for a few months.

All I can suggest is posting on v3arcade.com and one of the developers should be able to help you - it shouldn't take any more than adding some OR statements to conditionals in the arcade.php file.

Thanks for replying Gemma. Wish you well.

Hello,
on my board is already installed ibProArcade, but I would also install v3 arcade.
But I saw that the directory Arcade is identical for both, you can use another installation directory?

Thx
