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)

Danke für das Mod Acarde.
Für mich als Anfänger hatte ich mit ibProArcade v2.7.1+ Probleme und Fehlermeldungen.
Securititoken oder so in der Art.
Anfragen wurden leider nicht beantwortet.
HIER mit v3 Arcade - Professional vBulletin Gaming (vB4) das habe ich als Anfänger gleich hinbekommen und das Aussehen gefällt mich auch besser !!!
Good Job!

Installed this on my forums last night. it installed ok but when I tried register for an account on your site it kept giving me a 506 error. Now I somewhat have an account according to an auto response email but i'm unable to log in. Also never received any key or credentials to be able to install games from the ACP.

I submitted a support ticket but have yet to hear back. Please help!

Also never received any key or credentials to be able to install games from the ACP.

What games are you trying to install from the ACP?

I'm not sure if the v3 Arcade games 'store' has been set up yet since the server move.

If it is Mochi games you would need to follow the required steps - http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46531

I'm having a problem where no games are displayed on the homepage in the categories. I went through the steps on MochiMedia to import the games from the ACP. I installed 5 games and can't get them to show up on the homepage. You can search for the games and that works but they're not being displayed anywhere. Help?

Have you put the games into a category once installed?

AdminCP > v3 Arcade > Manage Games

Scroll down to the bottom of the page, newly installed games are all in the 'Other' category by default.

Your arcade isn't visible to guests so can't help much more without any details.

Yes, I have some games in categories and their still not displaying. Sorry about the guest thing, I changed the permissions so that unregistered can view/play the arcade. Try now. Thanks for the help.
