YES - as I told before, I am currenty re-doing the whole AdminCP-Section of this hack so that there is no more need of those IPB-files. And it will even look more integrated to vBulletin as it uses the same ACP-style now

So work is in progress, after finishing I will release this new, legal version of ibProArcade which also contains all past security-fixes, almost all AddOns and alot of bugfixes - so stay tuned for some days and wait for my release, where I (of course) got permission from Chris (author of ibProArcade) to release my version when finished

Oh so you're the one who's porting the hack to vBulletin and not strmike or Chris huh? That's cool. Does that mean you'll be converting v3.0 to vB as well?

MrZeropage · #3 08-28-2005, 07:01 PM

Chris and some others did the original port to vBulletin of ibProArcade by wrapping everything around so that the code still thinks it is an Invision-Board. They just "translated" the variables.

I was involved in the conversion and had contact to Chris to help out with some things, that's why I am administrator at ibproarcade-vb.com but the main work was not done by me.

Now I took that vBulletin-Version of ibProArcade some time ago, fixed the security-bugs and alot of other bugs and malfunctions to make this arcade fit my personal taste of a "perfect" hack. I improved the style alot, included most AddOns (AllMods from stlmike) and finally made one complete version which automatically detects wheather it's vBulletin 3.0.x or 3.5.0 and sets all necesarry variables in a correct way. This is working for about 2 weeks now and means that upgrading to vBulletin 3.5.0 just needs to import and active one single plugin and the ibProArcade continues its work in your forum

Now that this license-problem came up (two php-files in AdminCP are from the original Invision-Board) I had to stop my planned of my ibProArcade release last week and started re-coding the whole AdminCP-script for the ibProArcade. After finishing this I can (finally) release it and thus bring up a legal, complete, extended and bugfixed version of ibProArcade for vBulletin *proud*

Chris already gave his permission to release it (thx!) so just five me some more days to work on the AdminCP-script.

For all german users one more good news: this ibProArcade-Release will contain a complete german translation

About ibProArcade 3.0: I personally won't start converting this to vBulletin, I think Chris can do this much quicker. But if you compare v3.0 to my upcoming version it already has alot (maybe all ?) feature of v3.0 so I think there will be no need to quickly upgrade... But time will see

Hi there

Will you put the port in for the pnflashgames in as well as thats a good place to get free and payed for games from.
Also this dose not refreash the page all the time as the scores are saved with a componnent in the game its self.
The reason i ask is i make games for pnflashgames and i have now moved to vbulletin and would like to be able to enclude these games too.
I have been trying to put the pnflashgames hack in for the IPB but im not that good with php at the mo. Also i have alot of other things on the go.

Please put this in too as its a very good port many thanks

Mike

MrZeropage · #5 08-28-2005, 09:36 PM

Yes, that pnFlashGames-Code is included but yet not tested as I got no game of this type. Maybe you can send me one of that games for testing

I'm glad to hear that. So in other words, you will be releasing your version of ibProArcade for both vBulletin versions: v3.0.x and v3.5.x?

Because most of the people out there are going nuts about v3.5.

MrZeropage · #8 08-29-2005, 10:49 AM

Yes, you all can stop having trouble - my release will provide an automatical detection of vB 3.0.x and 3.5.0 and make everything work

loonytune15 · #9 08-29-2005, 01:23 PM

looking forward to this release, just one question, what if we already have the IPB version of the arcade installed, will there be an upgrade version available?

MrZeropage · #10 08-29-2005, 01:58 PM

You just have to replace all the files and do some additional queries - thanks for that tip, maybe I will include some "DB updater" that alters the tables the way they are needed

amykhar · #11 08-29-2005, 02:03 PM

why not just make it a product? Then you don't have to do an install script.

Snake · #12 08-29-2005, 02:15 PM

Yeah I agree with amy. Also it could be a lot easier to install / uninstall especially for the new people in here.

MrZeropage · #13 08-29-2005, 02:58 PM

Because ibProArcade does all bring its own file with it and the installscript just does the SQL-commands. To make one version for vBulletin 3.0.x and 3.5.0 it is most simple to keep this all the same

I don't want to hesitate too long with the release, but I will take a look on the possibility to make a "product"

Then again, I doubt a product XML file will be parseable by 3.0.x, which he already stated the hack should be compatible with.

MrZeropage · #15 08-30-2005, 10:19 AM

3.0.x won't interpret this XML so it may reside there without any effect. The installscript will sure be there for 3.0.x

I will look what is the best way

Question. What if we had the old vB 3.0.X version already installed before we upgraded to 3.5.X? I would really like to know. o_o Is there gonna be an update script so we can keep our scores and settings? O_o;

MrZeropage · #17 08-31-2005, 11:35 AM

As there are several 3.0.x versions around (stlmike did some "AllMod"-versions and spread them via ibproarcade-vb) you have to make sure that all db-tables for my extended version are existing... I will see if I can do some "db updater" for it.

If using my upcoming version of ibProArcade you can easily move from 3.0.x to 3.5.0 later as there is just little work to do (insert one plugin) and everything continues its work

I did not have an "allMod" version on my forum. :| Does that mean that you may need to make several db update scripts?

MrZeropage · #19 09-01-2005, 05:28 AM

No, thanks for the tip - I will adapt the installationscript to detect if there are several tables existing and thus it will make sure to put everything in the right place.

Please do me a favour and send me information about your database-structure concerning the arcade-tables - I am waiting for your PM to compare

Thx!
