v3arcade Alternative Layout

This is a port of GenSec's 3.0.x release (here).

This modification changes the layout of your main index page, and makes much better use of the space available.. It has been completely rewritten from scratch (using previous code as guidance), and is fully integrated with the Arcade Settings in the Admin CP. It is also fully phrased for our foreign friends..

All credit to GenSec for the layout design, who has kindly given permission for me to release this.

Note: If you use the vbBux integration, please ensure that you're using the latest arcade_game_bit_slim template, otherwise you may get a display error.


Compatability: 1.0.6
Screenshots attached (outdated, but gives the general idea)..

NP, I had to clear the cache in my browser before I noticed it was actually defaulting to Brick Mode.. We all make n00b every once in a while.

Hallo,
I have installed vbux/vplaza and there is a display error in brick mode (only on thatone) in the field where should be displayed minimum point to play that game.

how is possible to fix that?

excuse my broken english

take care

ciao!

Edit : v3Arcade 1.0.6 and v3arcade 1.0.5 alternative display installed

This modification has now been upgraded to 1.5.0, and requires much less file editing. Hopefully in the future, it won't need any at all - but unfortunately it isn't possible yet.

Anyone that has had problems with previous versions should have no problems using this, as it creates a second $gamebits variable instead of modifying the existing one. If you use the vbBux integration, please ensure that you overwrite the arcade_game_bit_slim template with the new one in the instructions.txt file - otherwise you'll get a display error.

Hi there

Is there anyway to not show the file size on there? I like the whole idea of this, but that part. My members won't care how big the file size it kwim?

Thanks

[Oblivion Knight]

Sure, just remove this part of the template:

				<div><strong>$vbphrase[filesize]:</strong> <em>$game[filesize]KB</em></div>

[FLMom]

awesome! Thanks again for all of your hard work

**wanted to update, I uploaded the arcade.php again so it is all working fine again, but I still am suppose to edit the arcade.php right? I am too scared to mess it up again, is it neccessary to edit it?

It's only one edit, which is basically moving a line of code above a certain hook.

It's required to make the highscores display correctly on the "Brick Mode". Otherwise, you'll have something like ".00" after all of them which looks really weird and out of place.

Similar errors to the last fellow.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/xxxx/public_html/forums/admincp/arcadeadmin.php on line 565

That code is

In arcade.php find and delete:

I've copied/pasted this in several times, and I get the same error. I have everything up to date. I do have vbbux installed. (current version).

I can click on Default User Settings just fine, anything after that shows the above error.

Your error is in admincp/arcadeadmin.php, not arcade.php.?

Different error, please make sure you have performed the edits correctly (ABOVE, BELOW and REPLACE)..
