This Hack was originally done for Invision Power Board (IPB) by Chris Kelly and later adapted to work within vBulletin 3.0.x but had no real integrated AdminCP and even some illegal licensed Files from IPB included, so it was removed from official vBulletin-Sites.

ibProArcade for vBulletin comes along with a complete new AdminCP with even more options and improved functionality, has been bugfixed alot and I implemented some additional feature that where missing. All known security-issues found have been fixed.

ibProArcade is full compatible to PHP4 and PHP5 and works with all vBulletin 3.x.x (yes, 3.0.x + 3.5.x + 3.6.x + 3.7.x + 3.8.x) with all the same Scripts !
ibProArcade v2.7.5+ and later is full compatible to PHP5.6 and PHP7 and works with all vBulletin-versions 3.x/4.x with all the same Scripts !
PHP7.0/7.1 require minimum vBulletin 3.8.11 or 4.2.5 and ibProArcade v2.7.5+

Installation of ibProArcade is very simple and easy:

vBulletin 3.0.x
upload the Files
run the Installer
edit 4 PHP-Files
edit 3 Templates
add 1 new Template


vBulletin 3.5.x & 3.6.x & 3.7.x & 3.8.x & 4.x.x
upload the Files
import the Product-XML-File
edit 3 Templates



If you are upgrading from an existing Arcade, some information:

• For existing ibProArcade-Installations (v2.6.6+ and older) check the included Upgrade-Information (look in Archive)
• For existing ibProArcade-Installations (v2.5.1) just do everything like a fresh installation, your Games and Scores should be kept automatically
• For existing v3arcade-Installations (v1.0.x) for vBulletin 3.5/3.6 there is the converter available.

I want to say a big THANK YOU to everybody who helped in the 3 months of development, testing and bugfixing the initial v2.5.3+ (in alphabetical order):

I've the same problem. In the formel version I modified it in /forum/arcade/functions/function.php in the function do_output($output_array) and added $navbar2 at the end. In this version I did the same, but my navbar2 is not comming up

Go into AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager and click the << >> button next to any style you need to customize.

Double click on the arcade_main template under Custom Templates and add $navbar2 where you want it to be.

That seems like it's referring to the game Autobahn. The game may not work properly. I assume you downloaded the 600+ibproarcadegames file. Some of the games files are not scripted right. Actually only a few are not scripted right. Majority of those games are fine. You'll probably find a problem with Billy Hatcher also, if you have it.

Are you sure ALL folders in the arcade folder are CHMOD 777? Don't forget the gamedata folders that are in BOTH the tar and zip folders.

If you'd like for me to take a look at it, I can. But I'd need an Admin name on your forum and FTP access. You can PM the info to me, if you want my help. If you're concerned about if I'm legit in helping, you could always ask Reece_B, as I've helped him recently. I installed over 500 games on his forum for him. Now I think he's in love with me.

thanks for the hack, I tried to read most of the posts to find the answer to my question, but there was too many posts, so sorry if someone else has asked this question before.

I have vb 3.5.3 and v3 arcade, how do i install this new hack so i don't lose any games or scores?

[cyberhypnotic]

If you read the very first post. The one from MrZeropage with the download link and all the listed information about the hack, you'd see this listed:

So, as you can see, you'll have to uninstall v3arcade, then install ibproarcade with a fresh new install and then reinstall the games. And you can't run both arcades because ibproarcade uses some of the same phrases that v3arcade uses, so your arcades would show up as a blank page. I know this because I gave it a try when I switched from v3arcade to ibproarcade.

I also want to add here that I object to v3arcade getting HOTM, when ibproarcade is way better than v3arcade. Even with the minimal bugs, it's better. A better layout, more goals like King of the Arcade, a better high scores ranking system, the tournament mode (has a few bugs being worked on) is way better than challenges on v3arcade, and then not to mention that ibproarcade has WAY more games than v3arcade. But adding them together, since you can install v3arcade games (via the zip folder/install option in AdminCP) you'll have a crazy amount of games. Something you can't do with v3arcade.

Of course, me objecting to v3arcade getting HOTM is only MY opinion, but it's the best way that I can make it known how much I enjoy this hack - aside from making a donation. :laugh:

[Tapiocapioca]

Excused my English but I am using google in order to write...
I have a problem with the installation of the games!
If I download game from http://www.pnflashgames.com/UpDownlo...ad-cid-1.phtml and I try them to install comes given back the error to me: ZIP is not compatible. Install Failed

Effectively those games are not compatible or mistake something? The permissions of the Arcade folder and of sub folder are to 777!! Use vBulletin version 3.5.3

[cyberhypnotic]

It's possible that they are .tar files. Which games are you trying to install with that error?

I've come across this problem already, so I'm sure I can give you some help.

Sometimes the zip file contains a text file instead of a PHP file. WinZip the game files and look at all the separate files that are in the zip. If you see something like pacman.txt let me know and I'll fix it and upload it to you, if possible.
