vbProArcade v1.0 Flash Games Development

vbProArcade v1.0 Flash Games Development Thread

This thread is intended to provide support for those who wish to find new games for their Arcades, or wish to assist in the development of new games for vbProArcade, or wish to modify existing, open-source Flash games for use with vbProArcade.

Note to vbulletin.org moderators: I could not find an appropriate place for this thread, other than the Beta Hacks forum, so here it is. If you feel this should be moved somewhere else, by all means do so. An additional reason I posted it here was because, to my knowledge, only registered users can view this thread, which may contain hack code at one point or another.

For the hack itself, you will need to see this thread. The Flash Development thread that you see here is just that, and should only be for the discussion of creating/modifying games to work with vbProArcade. Any discussion of or support for the hack itself will be conducted in the other thread.

For documentation on how to modify a game to work with vbProArcade, please see the vbProArcade documentation, which will always be contained in this post. I will try and update this post whenever I update the documentation itself.

A list of current games can you find in the second post.

Before you modify ANY game's source or post it here, you must MAKE SURE that you have the author's permission to modify and redistribute the code, compiled or otherwise.

As games are modified and posted, I will update this post to list them, so that people running vbProArcade may find and install them more easily.

i'm trying to modify the pinball game i get this error:

vbProArcade Error: Invalid game name specified (todo: put something pretty here later)

heres the code i used:

// set up vars to return
vpaver = "100B2";
text = score;
action = "gameover";
game = gamename;
score_loc = location + "proarcade.php";

// this needs to match the Admin CP value
// and should be between 0 and 31
hashoffset = 5;

// do security shuffle to return newhash
subhash1 = gamehash.substr(0,hashoffset);
subhash2 = gamehash.substr(hashoffset);
newhash = subhash2.concat(subhash1);

// redirect back to vbProArcade
getURL (score_loc, "_self", "POST");

anyone know why its doing this?

Games that are Buggy

1. X-ball

Can only go up to level 10 and max high score at 8,180 - then the ball justs hangs - very annoying.

2. Pong

Impossible to beat the computer - he let's you win one each time you lose one - so he is always 1 up to you. Was this an April Fools prank???

Anyway, just informing people. Otherwise, good work, all doing the Flash integration.

They only had 10 levels made in X-ball. thats why the ball just hangs there.

no, it wasn't an april fools joke. the computer is just hard to beat

well it's really just being nice to honor the wishes of the creator, but it's still not copyrighted, or I doubt it. I think if you want you can, it's just nice to honor the requests of the creator. Then again, not everyone likes being nice
