vB3 Pets v1.0
by AutomatikStudio and others

+What This Hack Does+
This hack gives your users the option to have their very own furry little pets. Posting on your boards is what keeps them alive!

+Installation+
+ Queries - 4
+ File edits - 3 files
+ Template Additions - 1
+ Template Edits - 2
+ Image Uploads

+UPDATE+
+Thanks to Link14716, your selections stay selected after your users save them in their profiles. The ZIP file has been updated with the new code. Or if you just want the code then check out THIS post.
+IF YOUR HACK HAS THE ANIMAL 'CATEPILLER' MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE SPELLING ERROR!! Silly me, I misspelled the word 'catepiller'. You need to update /includes/functions_showthread.php and the MODIFYPROFILE template from the word 'catepillar' to 'catepiller' with an E.

*Note: I no longer support this mod in any form or fashion. Please don't PM me with questions about it.

My forum is designed to appeal to mature minded people - most of them pet lovers - who have no desire whatsoever to engage in "Petz Wars". However, they would be more than willing to interact with a clever system that addresses everything else you must do to keep, raise, and maintain a pet.

The stuff you had about pets losing health points if a member didn't show up to feed it etc. is good, but this can be endlessly extrapolated. For instance pets need shots (and other medical attention), grooming, you have to clean up their poop, make sure they have a nice place to sleep, give them special treats, make sure they get exercise ... the list is endless.

You could build in something that allows people to customize their pets so pet shows could be held every once in awhile where everybody votes on the best one, and the winner gets a chunk of added reputation. Maybe find a way to train pets, so maybe if you've proven over time you've taken care of your pet they can do things for you, like automatically respond to a preselected user's post with a funny random comment. Stuff like that.

Might not sound as exciting as a whole roomful of pets fighting each other, but damn, a detailed system operating a little closer to reality would find an endearing market quickly, I'm betting.
What part of "don't have time" don't you guys understand? He has alot of work in his end. This hack he made is just for kicks, to kill time. Unfortunatly, he doesn't have time to kill anymore. Rather stay with this hack, or use the other pet hack. Don't try to change his mind if he's already made up. Also, he's not the coder of the hack. Someone else was (if you didn't read the first post of this thread), and the coder wasn't heard of again, if I understood correctly. Personally I won't bug him about the hack, it's already good as it is. I'd prefer this one over the other pet hack.

Heck...they even post in the guys thread they stole the ideas from telling people to buy their hack. But that's just people I guess.
...I might be inclined to believe he really didn't care about this hack anymore. The feeling I get is the main reason he's collapsing the project is frustration, so I must assume this is the impression he intended to convey.

We're all busy people. Whether he decides to reengage the project or not, his alternate statements on the opening post of this thread flagrantly place this hack in the public domain, so it couldn't hurt to look at this from a slightly different perspective for anyone who's interested. If I've figured out nothing else in my life I've learned:

A) it's pointless to be paranoid about other people stealing your ideas. It's frustrating, certainly, yet when you have one idea you automatically know you have the ability to encounter many more.

B) The two most common excuses people use to fail at anything are time and money (in that precise order).

Lots of people are obviously interested in this hack, so I'm betting it's feasible to drum up enough support to pursue it in a different direction people would appreciate. That's all I'm saying.

This hack is what it is, good for some not good enough for others.

To each his own welo, but I frankly don't care if you believe me or not. I'm not a liar and I have nothing to hide behind, I said I don't have time because I don't have time. It's getting pretty old people thinking they know my situation I'm in when in fact they've never even had a conversation with me. So, until you atleast make some sort of small talk with me, do everybody a favor and a be quiet. Also, for what it's worth, I'm not providing support for this hack anymore. People constantly demanding and thinking I owe them support by PMing me and messaging me, in addition to people suddenly knowing my life story, is getting very old.

And I wasn't just telling you, but everyone who keeps bugging him in general. Just leave the guy alone already. He has more important things to deal with. Has he come up with other hacks? Have you spoke with him on any chat program? Do you know the situation he's in? None of us do, so we don't have the right to call him a lier if we don't really know the true facts. That's all I'M saying, 'cause this might start some pointless flame war. >_>;

hey guys, I must let Automatik know that he is well appreicated.
I was giving him some beef but it was with good intention to
try and sway him to get back on this great project.

I just wanted to maybe help him by showing that he made a great impact
to many of us in a positive way.

#1 i want to say THANK YOU for this sweet Hack. I like it as it is and wont flame around because you know what are the really important things. Many Egoists in here ...

I've just a little question about the EXP. I think it means experience.
From where does it come ( mathematically), i have got some Powerposter with a EXP of 4 or something like this. Just want to know it that i could tell it to them.

Thanks in advance!

You have a strange way of helping people. People like you are why public relations and e-mail handlers exist. To sort out the trash before the artist has to read it.

some one here able to offer me some assistance installing this? I've installed this on 3 seperate occasions and it's not getting me anywhere.

When trying to view a thread I'm getting this error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in C:\Apache2\htdocs\vb3\showthread.php on line 67


When I'm trying to edit my profile I'm getting this error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in C:\Apache2\htdocs\vb3\profile.php on line 922

someone posted almost the exact same errors as I did around page 6 but later said "got it working" and that was all. LOL good but unfortunately I can't learn from his ways! I've quadruple checked the file mods and I can't see any errors and all 4 queries to the database are done and fine. ergh..
