Add-On Releases - v3 Arcade - Professional vBulletin Gaming (vB4)

v3 Arcade is now a member of the vBadvanced family!

http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=47571

The support forums & data from v3Arcade.com have been merged into the vBadvanced.com site.



=================================
v3 Arcade for vBulletin 4.x.x
For vBulletin 3.x.x, please see here.
=================================

Please note... until v3Arcade.com is upgraded to vBulletin 4, some demo sites can be found here. Also, because of styling changes introduced in vB 4.0.8 to allow customized user profile pages, this version requires 4.0.8+ to be installed.

"v3 Arcade" is the premiere arcade system written specifically for vBulletin. It's coded from scratch - not a port of an older version - and because it was coded specifically for vBulletin it uses the product system for code modifications & utilizes AJAX technology throughout. Here's a brief rundown of the features in this version of v3 Arcade.

• Edit-free template updates!

v3 Arcade for vBulletin 4 also has some feature differences versus v3 Arcade for vBulletin 3. Currently that list includes....

• The separate Arcade navbar has been replaced with the options being moved up to the standard vB navbar. Be sure to turn on the navbar link! (ACP => v3 Arcade => v3 Arcade Settings => v3 Arcade General Settings => Navbar Link Position)
• When viewing a game categories other than the 'All' category, the category name will now be included in the navbar breadcrumbs.
• Added a new template "v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy_wrapper" to allow adding some HTML around the arcade award images in the postbit.
• The category tabs shown on the main page will use the vB styling instead of their own defined styles. As we go forward the vB4 version of v3A will lose more & more of it's custom styling and instead use more of the new vB4 styling features elements.
• New option to display a "New" game category tab that will display all games in newest to oldest order. In addition to the new tab a "New Games" link will also be shown in the vB "What's New" navbar link. (ACP => v3 Arcade => v3 Arcade Settings => v3 Arcade Homepage Settings => Display "New" Category Tab)

HI Gemma,

Thanks for the quick answer. Will check where I can find it.

If someone has an idea, where to get the packman game, open for suggestions.

Take care

how can this be fixed to work with the latest php..
thanks

What is the code on lines 1786 and 2580?

[Hippy]

I don't have access to the files from work
but if I remember correctly this is what's on both lines √

PHP Code:

$parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list()); 


[Gemma]

I'm not running PHP 5.3.x but try removing the ampersand

$parser = new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());

[Hippy]

yes thats what I did to get it working but I wasn't sure that was correct.

thanks

Hey there,

finally, everything works fine. I tried your Import-XML to switch from IBPro to v3arcade and its just great. Very very nice mod, I would like to nominate it as MOTM, but i can't find the Nominate-Button O.o

the v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy_wrapper template seems to be uncatched

[Gemma]

Open the plugin Arcade Template Caching and find

        $cache[] = 'v3arcade_award_bit';
	$cache[] = 'v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy';
}

Replace it with

        $cache[] = 'v3arcade_award_bit';
	$cache[] = 'v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy';
        $cache[] = 'v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy_wrapper';
}
