RPG Integration Hack /w Battle (BETA) · **Released**: 12-05-2002

RPG Integration Hack BETA by Bitsys
(vBulletin versions 2.2.6?, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, and 2.3.0)

This hack combines several RPG hacks into one and adds a battle hack. The hacks included in this hack are:

Zajako's Ultimate HP/MP Stats Hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=37720)
Zajako's RPG Elements Hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=35318)
Zajako's In battle hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=42715)
Zajako's RPname hack -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=43651)
DV class hack used with permission of J2K (aka the RPG Class Hack v3.3) ----- (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=43558)
Mewtwo's/Rake's Original Itemshop v5 -----(https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=38090)

In addition to re-releasing thse hacks, I have added features to all of them (or else there would be no point in re-releasing).

The RPG hacks are now all editable via the admin control panel.
The itemshop has been somewhat optimized and some fixes are included that reduce queries in showthread.php and itemshop.php . Also, Lesane's Store Hack has been integrated with the Itemshop. This can be toggled in the admin cp.

This means that the RPG hacks are database driven and have been partially integrated with the Itemshop. This was necessary in order to make a battle hack, which is also included.

Since most people are familiar with the RPG and Itemshop hacks, I will give a brief description of the Battle hack. If you want more information about either of the other two hacks, then refer to their original posts or download the .zip file and read the "readme.txt". If you are a visual learner, then you can scroll down to the second post in this thread, which contains the pictures of all of these hacks.

Battle Features:

The battle format is turn-based.
HP, AP, PP, and MA are automatically deducted based on what action a user takes, the damage dealt to an opponent, etc.
Opponents in battle can use spells, one-handed weapons, two-handed weapons, shields, potions, or their fists.
A battle is over when a combatant dies, retreats, or there is a draw. Battles can also be ended via the admin control panel.
A wager can be set on a battle. Whoever wins the battle recieves the amount of money as specified in the wager. Outside bets are not supported yet.
Battles can be either public or private, as determined by the admin control panel. If private, battles require a password and battles can not be browsed. If public, then any user can view any battle, but only the original combatants can fight.
The results of a battle can be posted into a designated "Battle" forum, as specified in the admin control panel.
Inactive battles can be pruned.

Getting started with the battle hack:

In order to get items to disply in the item shop, you must select which items go with which RPG Type in the "Edit Item Type" Menu of the admin cp.
In order to assign which weapon categories do what kind of damage in battle, you must go to the "Edit Category" link located in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. Select a Battle type for the category and save changes.
In order to do damage to your opponent when in battle, you must assign the amount of damage each weapon does in the "Edit Items" menu of the admin cp. The default damage is set to 0. The same principle goes for armor, potions, spells, shields, etc.

Please refer to the screenshots or "readme.txt" for more information.

Why is this a BETA hack?

I have tested the installation of this hack on vBulletin versions 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9, and 2.3.0. However, because of the scale of this hack, there is plenty of room for errors. Therefore I am making the following disclaimer while this hack is in the BETA stage:

WARNINGS:

Do not install this hack on a production board. Please keep this hack, while in the BETA stage, to a test board. The reason for not installing this on a production board is that I cannot provide upgrade instructions for going from one version of the beta hack to the next version of the beta hack. Also, this hack does not have an un-install script yet. So please remember, if you decide to install this on a production board, you are doing so at your own risk.

Do not apply this hack if you already have ANY of the included hacks installed. Please refer to the list at the top to see if you have any of the conflicting hacks installed. Since I am asking that you install this on a test board right now, this should not be a problem since you can re-install a fresh copy of vBulletin in under 5 minutes, as a test board of course.

There is currently no upgrade script for installing this over any of the included hacks. I will make one when this beta is completed.

If you choose to install the postbit features, then an additional query will be added to showthread.php. This query is a SELECT COUNT(*) query and adds around .001 seconds to the page generation. If you don't like the idea of adding an additional query to showthread.php, then you have the option of not installing that part of the hack. See the install file for more information.

Miscellaneous:

The beta of this hack is free. The full/final release will also be free.

All installation instructions and credits are included in the attachment. If you find a bug or have problems, feel free to post them here and I will try to fix them. Please read the included readme file if you have questions. If you can't find the answer, then post your question here and I will answer it.

All hacks included in this hack have been re-released with permission of their original creators.

Screenshots are in the second post of this thread.

Installation:

Installation instructions are included in the .zip file.

ACKK! I NEED HELP!!!

If you are having trouble and need some help, please refer to the help documentation included in the .zip file. It is located in the "extra" directory.

If you need help and you have already installed the hack, make sure you check the RPG Manual link in the admin cp. Also, make sure you read the FAQ included with the manual.

MY THREADS STOPPED DISPLAYING CORRECTLY!!!
See if you are experiencing one of the following symptoms:

All of my users are being labeled as "Guest" in the postbit template.
No posts are showing up.
None of the RPG variables will display in the postbit. The element/gender/class images are broken.
I get database errors when I go to showthread.php

If you are experiencing one or more of the above problems, then your showthread.php file was not edited correctly by the installer. This problem usually occurs on boards with other hacks installed that modify the queries in showthread.php. Please go to https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=2261 and follow the instructions there.

Add-ons:
The following add-ons are not included in the default installation. You must apply these add-ons after you have installed the hack successfully.

-More

hmm...possibly...youd havta decide how much and if you wanted it controlale through the acp ud havta wait a little bit.

also bitsys, another bugfix::

i kept gettin error messages in my tech email cause of itemshop.php queirying for incorrect things...and its from non regs trying to access that page. well, it still loads and all, but causes loads of useless email.....so, to fix it, in itemshop.php

find:

PHP Code:


			
if(!$options[lesanestore]) {

        if($pointfield) {

                $pointss=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT $pointfield FROM userfield WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");

                $points = (int) $pointss[$pointfield];

        } else {

                echo "Invalid Pointfield.";

                $points = 0;

        }

} else {

        //$pointss=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT storep FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");

        $points = (int) $bbuserinfo[storep];

}

and replace with:

PHP Code:


			
if($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 1) {

if(!$options[lesanestore]) {

        if($pointfield) {

                $pointss=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT $pointfield FROM userfield WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");

                $points = (int) $pointss[$pointfield];

        } else {

                echo "Invalid Pointfield.";

                $points = 0;

        }

} else {

        //$pointss=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT storep FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");

        $points = (int) $bbuserinfo[storep];

}

} else {

$points = 0;

}

Hmm.. i dont know if this has been told before, but theres a bug with the potions, while using Potion in battle it says that it drank the potion but always recovers 0 HP...and yes, im harmed,not at full health.
And also, if you ever got the anger to increase, you might have seen that it can go over 100%....i think thats a lil bug...dunno

What version are you using? Are you sure the potions have a buff assigned to them?

The anger bug should have been fixed in the last release.
Can you provide a screenshot?

If not then how does anger reset to zero?

In battle, if your anger gets to 100%, then it will force you to use your "mad" attack and it will then go back down to 0%. Let me know if this is not the case.

Ok, my previous issues were resolves, but I was wondering. How do mages use spells?

There should be a radio button when in battle that lets the mages use their spells. The radio button should have the name of the spell, how much damage it does, and how much MA it costs to the right of it.

There are two possible causes of this. First, some of the file edits may not have been done to showthread.php. Try manually verifying that the correct edits were done.

Also, just to make sure, try running the DB Fix.

Some of the file edits to member.php may not have executed properly. Try manually verifying that all of the edits took place.

Will be fixed in the next release!

Red Blaze · #**1068** 02-27-2003, 07:15 PM

Ok..now potions do work, we forgot to put a buff value, sorry ^^;
Now, i found another little bug, if you are challenged, when you recieve the pm with the accept/decline link, if you just click on the Accept/Decline button without clicking on the Yes or No radio button, it automatically declines you...it should redirect you to some error template like saying: You must click Yes or No!
And also, i have some problems with the battle scene, it shows up but in the left corner it says that the battlescene.gif is invalid, and its correctly uploaded.

Quick fix for the Decline yes/no bug:

In the template battle_confirm, find:

Code:

<input type="radio" value="No" name="confirmation">

and change it to:

Code:

<input type="radio" value="No" name="confirmation" CHECKED>

This will be fixed in the next version. Thanks

Does the .gif you are using for the battle background show up properly in the admin cp? Does it show up properly in battle?

Red Blaze · #**1070** 02-27-2003, 07:54 PM

Hmm...no, it doesnt show in the admin cp but it does show in battle

Darkwaltz4 · #**1071** 02-27-2003, 08:00 PM

actually bitsys, i did have problems with my battlescenes too. the pics are just fine and still show up perfect in the acp, but i had long since dismissed the problem as 'something to set manually in the db' and since my phpmyadmin is not working....i forgot to say anything

even the default, which had been working before, doesnt show up. just blank backtable. and it does not display 'invalid battlescene' either. (in the orig files

)
