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:

can you give me a link to your games directory and the location to the arcade file? I'll take a quick look for you (I guess i'm going to have to sign-up???)

Mist - Try removing the / in front of "/games/" or setting it to "/forum/games/".

No, just set it to "games/". I already told someone above, and I have it set, and both of ours works.

Limpkinw: You say you are having trouble getting the icons to upload? I worked hard for awhile to eliminate every problem of that nature that I could find, but I think that some servers are just configured in such a way that uploads to a temporary file just don't work. Do the game icons appear in the Admin CP at all after you upload them?
JaZz0r: I have had very little luck getting the arcade to work with any Mozilla-based browsers. The arcade uses HTTP POST to send variables from the Flash games back to the PHP script, and for whatever reason Mozilla does not appear to do this correctly, or there is a bug in Flash/Mozilla's interoperability that causes it to fail. |

futureal, wouldnt it be easier to just have the icons uploaded into the images directory by the user via FTP? Then they can just set where it is in the admin center. Would that eliminate most of the problems or be too much trouble to do?
