Fully integrated with vBulletin and easily integrated with third party scripts:
Many hacks allow you to specify a points system by entering the table and column for the points data. Use TABLE: user COLUMN: credits when integrating vBCredits with such hacks (note: you may need to include your table prefix with some hacks)! If you are unsure about integration - ask me!

Why is this version not the gold version yet?
vBCredits 1.4rc1 went through a long bugtesting process at the official site, and rc2 is largely bug free in its entirety. However, *it is missing most of the admin help and post/thread deletion actions are temporarily removed while I figure out how to fix them.

Footnotes:
Thank you for using vBCredits, I would be happy to hear your feedback and correct anything that comes up. For more tailored support, please indicate you have installed this hack. Use of this free hack requires that you retain the copyright line at the bottom of the forum (PM me otherwise). If you do not agree with this, please do not use vBCredits - thank you for your understanding and support!

the highlighted sentence in the top post links to how to make this work for vb3.7
http://www.vbcredits.com/forum/tracker.php?itemid=156

pretty simple.

as for a shop, watch my progress thread on vbcredits.com - now posting screenshots
also can be found about content merchants - which is charging to view content in posts. cant discuss any further in this thread please, thanks.

also, download support is being built into the upcoming vblimiter, again look at site..
i will not be integrating with downloads ii, at least for free. thats not to say someone else couldnt do it themselves.

[maidos]

how much do u want it for paid?

[Black Tiger]

I had this tagged for sometime and now installed on vB 3.7 beta 5.
But I also have Icash installed which I want to remove really. So first I need to convert, but when trying to import the convert product I get this error:

The product Icash must be installed before this product may be installed. (Compatible starting with 1.0.2)

I got version 2.03 of Icash installed. Why do I get the notice then?

The second question is:
Do I need to change something in Icash settings?
At this moment my "Name of Points" is "euro" and "Money row" is "money".
Is this oke or do I need to change things?

[Darkwaltz4]

weird - the version ordering thing must be messed up in vb >.< pm me your email address and ill send you an altered version.

your money row is fine, but youll have edit the phrase Credits to Euro

[Black Tiger]

Thanks, pm send.

[Black Tiger]

Thanks, conversion trick worked.

I downloaded the ibproarcade addon from vbcredits.com, does this also work with version 1.3?

[Black Tiger]

Euh... I will have to comment on the previous question...

I just wanted to install the ibpro arcade addon but have seen how much work this is because of the many edits.
Will this addon be updated in the near future? Compared to Icash, which uses simply a ibpro arcade hook, it's much, much easyer to integrate and you don't have to do the file edits every time the arcade system is updated.
You can find the hook solution in post #392 of the Icash thread.

It will substract a certain amount of credits for playing and also award a certain amount of credits if you get a high score.
Aren't there such hooks with vbCredits, so this can be as easily applied as with Icash?

Here at vBorg is vBCredits 1.3 and the arcade addon which works with 1.3
At vbcredits.com is vbcredits 1.4rc1 and the arcade addon which works with 1.4rc1 and arcade 2.6.6

The newest arcade addon has more features and has more bugfixes

I know all about the many file edits - and I've defended them for a long time The reason is ibproarcade doesnt have many hooks in the places that the addon needs (if you look at the plugins, theres a good dozen+ there where possible!). so.. the only other way is to edit the files. icash and others are more simplistic in their arcade integrations, as they arent integrated in as many ways.

So, my hands are tied with that issue, but I do have the set of files edited already for you which I can send - but only for the latest version of the arcade addon. I will update vborg with the newest version when 1.4 final is ready and posted here (to avoid confusion). I have permission to even post those edited files, but at vborg only.

[Black Tiger]

That's nice. I do have ibproArcade version 2.6.6 installed.
I'd already read that you could send the edited version, but then I wonder if I'm able to disable several things, because I only need the two hooks I mentioned, so paying with credits for playing and earning an amount of credits when won a highscore, nothing more.
We only use the credits system for fun on our forums.

Is that possible?

[Darkwaltz4]

yes everything in vbcredits is easily disabled, however leaving out various plugins/file edits is not really advised, such as if you try to enable something in the future and forget why it isnt working (or which things you left out in the first place). not to mention sometimes certain plugins rely on other plugins, even if its not immediately apparent
