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:

Another quick question:
After playing u can add a comment... Now the color of the font is black, just as the box to typ it in... In other words: u don't see what u typ. Where can i change the font color? I looked at some templates, but hard to find... |

I haven't tested this but I'd say play with the font colours in the vbproarcade_gameover template.

tinbin,
yeh, I think it's the comment forms textfield color that has main background as the color in that gameover template. |

Hi, thanks for the hack my Intranet users love it!
Anyway, after having (nearly) successfully installing the hack, I have encountered a slight but ugly problem. I have tried replacing the vast majority of templates with another copy of the original just to see if i messed up something btu that hasnt worked. Please see the attached image, all the tables have used the same colour for everything and it looks very ugly... how on earth can i sort this out? Any help greatfully appreciated. |

That's becuase futureal used the wrong replacement variable in his templates. He never saw anything wrong, since it looks right on his.
When I get home today, I'll attach my templates, that should fix the problem. |

I plan on re-doing the templates completely for the hack one vBulletin 3 comes out (and yes, there will be a version for vB3 as soon as I can get my hands on the code). |

See the development thread for a post I made regarding a bugfix version of the hack as well as optimizations for the mini-scoreboards.
Thanks for all the support, everybody! |
