6. Q: I created my new account, what else do I need to do?
A: First you will need to have installed v3 Arcade 2.0.0 or above! After that you will need to do some steps that will have you up & running in just a few minutes.
1. Log into your MochiAds account and click on the "Settings" tab.
2. Enter the domain URL to your site where you have v3 Arcade installed. For example, if your v3 Arcade is installed at http://www.MySite.com/forums/arcade.php then you would enter "www.mysite.com" as the URL name.
3. Follow the steps shown to verify that you are the owner of the domain.
4. Scroll to the bottom of the screen to the "Auto Post Settings" section.
5. For the "Auto Post Method" drop-down box, select the "Custom built script" option.
6. For the "Auto Post URL" text box, enter the following URL with your own information: http://www.MySite.com/forums/admincp...p?do=mochilive
7. Upload the file "crossdomain.xml" from the MochiAds folder inside of the v3 Arcade zip file to your root directory. This is needed to allow you to receive credit for the games played at your site and to also allow the MochiAds servers to calculate the checksums needed for the scores.
- 3rd party add-ons (like vBa Modules, etc.) will need to be slightly tweaked since the 2.0.0 table names, phrase names, etc. have all been changed. If it is something that has been posted publicly just point us in the direction and we'll give an updated copy. If it is a private hack/add-on, contact us somewhere (best place is over at v3A.com) and we'll point you in the right direction.
- As TMH63 (thanks!) pointed out, the new crossdomain.xml file is only if you are going to be using the new MochiAds integration features. If you're looking for new games and a chance to earn a little bit at the same time, it's a great feature.

Does anyone know from steps 7 if the root is the actual root of your site for example www.mysite.com or do they mean the root of your forums directory example www.mysite.com/forums/file
