vbProArcade Beta 2
1/5/03: Beta 2 released 9/12/02: Beta 1.03 zip updated to include safe mode fix 9/3/02: Beta 1.03 released -- small bug fixes, see below 9/1/02: Beta 1 of vbProArcade has been posted. Please see below for installation instructions. Background Information vbProArcade is a fully-customizable Flash arcade add-on for vBulletin, complete with game-by-game scoreboards, forum integration, a "champions" system, statistics, and more. This is an extensive hack that is still in BETA form, and I don't recommend installing it if you are not willing to work through potential issues and future updates/upgrades! I am working on making the installation instructions as easy as possible, but it will probably be some time before it is perfect. Watch this post for updates as they happen, and check out screenshots from the list below. If you would like to see the hack in action, you may visit my Shadows of Namek forums. You will need to register to play, but you can view the scoreboards and the arcade itself as a guest. Credits This hack materialized thanks to work and help from a number of people and forums. Here they are:
So far, there are FIVE GAMES that work correctly with this hack. They are: Breakout Pacman Snake Space Invaders Tetris All five .SWF files are included in the release archive. There is now a Flash Games Development Thread for the purpose of modifying existing games to work with vbProArcade, or for creating new games to be compatible with vbProArcade. If you have a game that you wish to see modified but don't know how, post the .FLA source in that thread and hopefully somebody can assist you. Installation Instructions Download the file attached to this post, unzip it and familiarize yourself with the contents BEFORE doing anything. There are TWO separate files worth reading, the Documentation and the Installation Instructions. I recommend that you read both BEFORE doing anything else. Once you have done this, the instructions to be followed are contained in vbproarcade-install.txt. Follow them as precisely as possible. If you encounter an error somewhere, it is likely that you missed a step or made a small error. Please double-check your work BEFORE posting about problems here. And it cannot be said enough: read that file before you do anything, and if you are unsure of something, please post your question(s) before attempting to install the hack. Problems and Fixes/Workarounds (as of 1/5)
Here is the list of stuff that I know does not work. I will be working towards correcting these bugs BEFORE adding new features for the next release.
Here is the list of posts from this thread that contain screen shots for the new version. Check them out!
This is the stuff that is in progress for future release:

Nope, I misunderstood what his fix was intended for. I'm not having that problem. Its actually working fine for me, but one of my users says that he gets a 404 error when it tries to submit the score. Could be browser related or something.
{Edit} Nevermind.. He figured out what the problem was.. Nothing to do with this hack. He said something about a micromedia flash popup and he was clicking no when he should have been clicking yes. I have no idea what he's taking about because I don't get any popup. *shrugs*

But luck - for me, so i am alone again
 I dont get Flash-Popups and i think its an error in the configs - because it redirects to the wrong destination. But not on all systems... ARGH... I hope we can fix this, i love arcade and 1.x runs flawless on my system.

Ok exactly what is that error saying?? As far I know, I deleted all the tables from beta 1. Anything that had vbarcade or whatever the tables were called, I deleted them. So i dont know where to start looking for the table that I need to delete since now I have beta two installed with the new tables.

For those of you who don't want to add all 22 odd templates individualy and have the template backup hack by FireFly installed then here are the Beta 2 templates as individual text files.

TheSonic: Did you have beta 1 installed first and if so did you delete all of the tables before installing beta 2?

Yes, i de-installed the complete Beta 1, including templates, hacks and SQL-Tables.
For the most useres, it works, just 2 Users become that 404 after playing (because it redirects to the wrong URL), so i dont think i hacked somethring wrong (because for the most useres it works - but they had no problem with BEta 1)... Hmm... crazy... Perhaps there is a problem with the firewall or the IE-Settings of them, i will check that...

you're not alone, TheSonic
 I installed the Hack (first Time), and in IE, everything works well. But with my favourite Browser Mozilla I get redirected zu mydomain.de/proarcade.php instead of mydomain.de/vbb/proarade.php

I tried playing in the arcade at my site (The Kryptonian), as well as the arcade at futureal's site (Shadows of Namek) with Opera 6.05, IE 6, Mozilla 1.2b and Netscape 7 and came to the conclusion that the redirect only works for Internet Explorer. That is why you are getting the 404 errors. I'm sure futureal should be able to fix this easily.
