That's great.

I have upgraded my forum to vb4 and trying to change arcade template and files as well, but it is very hard for me cause I don't understand most codes.

I sent MrZeropage a PM some days ago with question about his commitment to bring this addon to vB4, but still no reply.

What all would it take stangger to make the mod available for you to take over?

I don't know what the rules are here about editing someone elses work,
so if the mods feel this is "over the line" then please delete.

I take absolutely no credit for ibproarcade, it is a fantastic mod and so good, it was essential I get it up and running on VB4.

Perhaps there are better ways to do this and there could be glitches, but here is what I did to get my arcade back.

First, this assumes you still have ibproarcade installed.

Step 1: Log into Admin, deactive "ibProArcade: ARCADE Template Cache"
(Perhaps someone else can help with this plugin)

Step 2: Erase and replace your ARCADE template with the following:

Code:

{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">
  <head>
    <title>{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}</title>
    {vb:raw headinclude}
  </head>
  <body>
    {vb:raw header}
    {vb:raw navbar}
    <div id="pagetitle">
      <h1>{vb:raw pagetitle}</h1>
    </div>
    <h2 class="blockhead">Arcade</h2>
    <div class="blockbody">
      <div class="blockrow">
  {vb:raw arcadeheader}
  {vb:raw maincontent}
      </div>
    </div>
    {vb:raw footer}
  </body>
</html>

Step 3:

Locate the arcade standard file functions.php in /arcade/functions/
Near line 1345 you will see the following:

Code:

// HTML-TITLE DONE :)
$debug = false;
$navbits = $output_array['NAV'];
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar="' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('$footer="' . fetch_template('footer') . '";');
$maincontent = $this->to_print;
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('ARCADE') . '");');
exit;

Erase this code and replace with:

Code:

// HTML-TITLE DONE :)
$debug = false;
$navbits = $output_array['NAV'];
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
$navbits = construct_navbits(array('' => 'Arcade'));
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);
$maincontent = $this->to_print;
$templater = vB_Template::create('ARCADE');
$templater->register_page_templates();
$templater->register('navbar', $navbar);
$templater->register('footer', $footer);
$templater->register('pagetitle', 'Arcade');
$templater->register('maincontent', $maincontent);
$templater->register('arcadeheader', $arcadeheader);
print_output($templater->render());
exit;

Step 4:

Edit your index.php file in root to support the score saving routine by adding the following code at or near the top of the index.php file.

Code:

// ibProArcade modification
if($_POST['module'] == "pnFlashGames"){
$_GET[act] = "Arcade";
$_GET['module'] = "arcade";
}

if($_POST['module'] == "pnFlashGames"){
$_GET[autocom] = "arcade";
$_GET['module'] = "arcade";
}

if($_POST['func'] == "storeScore"){
$_GET['do'] = "pnFStoreScore";
}

if($_POST['func'] == "saveGame"){
$_GET['do'] = "pnFSaveGame";
}

if($_POST['func'] == "loadGame"){
$_GET['do'] = "pnFLoadGame";
}

$act = $_GET[act];
$showuser= $_GET[showuser];

if($act == "Arcade") {
include "arcade.php";
exit();
}

if($act == "autocom") {
include "arcade.php";
exit();

}

if(!empty($showuser) && $showuser >= 1) {
$u = $showuser;
$_GET[u] = $showuser;
include "member.php";
exit();
}

// end of ibProArcade modification

Hopefully this will work for you. I am by no means a pro so don't bust my chops if this don't work for you.
Just trying to get a patch out there until the REAL coders provides a better solution.

One more note... Be sure to make a backup of your index.php file as - like me - I am sure you will overwrite it with future VB4 updates.

Oh an props to Lynne for her consolidated article here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=228112
It helped me get the idea behind this alteration.

Well done cory_booth

Your patch worked for me, but the template is not looking good, I think it require some CSS editing too..

Still not bad for now, thanks so much mate.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
