v3 Arcade
for vBulletin 3.6.1
=================================

"v3 Arcade" is the third Arcade system I've written for vBulletin. It's coded from scratch, not a port of an older version - and because it was coded specifically for vBulletin 3.6 it uses the product system for code modifications, and utilizes AJAX technology throughout. Here's a brief rundown of the features in this version of v3 Arcade.

- Supports both v3 Arcade and iB games.
- Download *legal* free, premium and multiplayer games directly from v3arcade.com to your Arcade installation.
- Import script to convert your old v3 Arcade installation. (A script to import games, scores and news from old IBPro installations is available here, thanks to Tigga: http:www.v3arcade.com/forums/showthread.php?t=324)
- AJAX based instant ratings, for simple to use game ratings.
- AJAX based inline score moderation.
- AJAX based instant game searching.
- Tabbed, customizable categories.
- Challenge system for one-on-one contests.
- User-permission based settings for email/PM notification, challenge settings.
- Streamlined viewing modes for users with lower resolutions.
- AJAX based quick stats, for viewing statistics by passing the cursor over a username.
- Mass import tools for importing games in bulk.
- Reverse and decimal based scoring.
- Arcade-only closure with customizable message.
- Per game criteria, allows you to control access to games by reputation, posts, registration length.
- Postbit based awards.
- Personalized recommendations for other games users might like, based on what they?re playing.
- Quick stats, letting a user know how many other scores are above and below theirs.
- Score ranking.
- Admin customizable ?score feedback?, displays a message based on how well as user has done.
- Numerous Admin CP settings to control things like popup opacity, maximum comment length, hover delay length, and numerous other behaviors.
- Full admin control over the types of content allowed in comments (BB code, HTML, smilies, etc.)
- Usergroup based access permissions.
- Fully phrased, for each translation into other languages.
- An ever growing collection of third party add-ons, thanks to Oblivion Knight.
- A slick, professional layout.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...executionorder

[Gewow]

the solution worked, as in...it installed w/ no database error...

what i want to know if why arcade passes don't work. I have it set that to be able to play in the arcade for 7 days, you must pay a certain amount of points, but it's not working. The setting is enabled, but it just doesn't work.

is this a vbbux problem or an arcade problem?

any help would be appreciated.

edit: fixed...sorry (had to edit the permissions of each usergroup)

[Suiko Jin]

Yeah, that site is stilld own... so can anyone help me? I still don't know why it all of a sudden doesn't let me submit my scores. X.x

[stud]

I keep getting the following error when attempting to submit scores:

Fatal error: Cannot use object of type mysqli_result as array in /home/..../forum/arcade.php on line 1207

Here is line 1207:

"$highscore = $check['rank'] + $check2['rank']"

Any ideas?
