It's an option that can be turned off.

Upgrade from 1.07 seemed to go well, but I'm having just one problem. When I got the main arcade page and click on someones name with a high score, it does nothing and I get an explanation point error in the taskbar of internet explorer. When I click on it. the following message appears:


Line: 169
Char: 2
Error: 'xml.handler.readyState' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: www.mysite.com/forum/arcade.php

I found a small 'bug' on arcade admin (arcadeadmin.php):

If you setup an custom admincp folder, maybe you will have problem to install games, receiving a php error.

Solution, change both line bellow:

Line 572:

	print_input_row($vbphrase['file_path'], 'filepath', 'admincp/games');

To:

	print_input_row($vbphrase['file_path'], 'filepath', $vbulletin->config['Misc']['admincpdir'] . '/games');

Line 579:

	print_input_row($vbphrase['file_path'], 'filepath', 'admincp/games');

To:

	print_input_row($vbphrase['file_path'], 'filepath', $vbulletin->config['Misc']['admincpdir'] . '/games');

I hope this small fix can be integrated in next minnor release.

[love.]

thank u

Thank you for bringing this to our attention; I will forward it to Brian to make sure that it is fixed in the upcoming 2.0.0 release. 2.0.0 has had several sections of code extensively rewritten and is currently in Alpha testing (new features are still being added).

Go to google and find by ipb games.

To install, just upload the compressed file to admincp/games and go to admincp -> game tools.

I have installed the Arcade and on the nav bar, the link keeps redirecting to */forums/arcade.php and I need it to just be /arcade.php. How do I change this?

[SEW810]

I got two issues

This one

Our records show that you've already played your part in this challenge before. Only one score can be submitted per challenge.

I didn't found any option to disable that )/&(%/&$&%$% thing.

And this other one:

Set Challenge Permissions for All
Using this tool will set permissions for all forum users to allow Arcade challenges. Usually this is a good idea because installing the Arcade on a forum with many members will result in challenges being disabled by default, this will rectify that.

I just click START button and nothing appends with users accounts.

Thnx for your help

Almost forgot.
Installed mod !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SAT2M]

How can I download & install more game for this ?
