How to convert games

Here is a small guide on how to convert games for the ibProArcade

Put this code in the first frame

_global.ipb_get_gname = function ()
{
    var _loc4 = _root._url;
    var _loc5 = "";
    var _loc2 = "";
    var _loc6 = _loc4.lastIndexOf("\\") + 1;
    if (_loc6 == -1 || _loc6 == 0)
    {
        _loc6 = _loc4.lastIndexOf("/") + 1;
    } // end if
    var _loc3 = _loc6;
    var _loc7 = String(_loc4).length;
    while (_loc3 < String(_loc4).length)    {
        _loc2 = _loc4.charAt(_loc3);
        if (_loc2 == ".")
        {
            break;
        } // end if
        _loc5 = _loc5 + _loc2;
        _loc3++;
    } // end while
    return (_loc5);
};
ipb_gname = _global.ipb_get_gname();
xx = new LoadVars();
xx.onLoad = function (success)
{
    if (success)
    {
        _global.ipb_scoreVar = this.scoreVar;
    } // end if
};
fname = "arcade/gamedata/" + ipb_gname + "/" + ipb_gname + ".txt";
xx.load(fname);

make a new symbol with this code and insert it in the whole frame range

if (yy.savescore == 1) {
        if (ipb_score == undefined) {
            ipb_score = eval (_global.ipb_scoreVar);
        }
        xx = new LoadVars();
        xx.arcadegid = _root.ibpro_gameid;
        xx.gscore = ipb_score;
        xx.gname = _global.ipb_get_gname();
        xx.enscore = (ipb_score * yy.randchar) ^ yy.randchar2;
        xx.send("index.php?autocom=arcade&do=savescore", "_self", "POST");
        stop();
    }
    _global.ipbSend = function (ipb_score) {
        _root._visible = false;
        _root.enabled = false;
        xx = new LoadVars();
        yy = new LoadVars();
        xx.sendAndLoad("index.php?autocom=arcade&do=verifyscore", yy, "POST");
    };

use this code to submit

_global.ipbSend();

make a folder inside the gamedata folder called gname
make an empty file called v32game.txt inside that folder
make a text file in that folder called gname.txt with this code in it

replace gname with the gname of the game
replace _root.score with the games scorevar

This is how to convert games with the new arcade 2.5.9 and with the ipb 3.3 arcade mod.

Next trouble with v32game try a easier type

How to convert games for v2games
These are pretty easy
All you really got to with these is clean the games as in get rid of the unneeded crud and change the button from play again to submit etc.

here is the code for submitting games with v2games

on (release)
{
   var gname = "SWF FILE NAME";
   var gscore = _root.score;
   getURL("index.php?act=Arcade&do=newscore", "_self", "POST");
}

This would be your button code

Auto Submit

gscore = _root.score;
gname = "000";
getURL("index.php?act=Arcade&do=newscore", "_self", "POST");
stop();

and here is some example scorevar you could use which alot of games might use

_root.score;
 score;
_root.maxScore
_root.score.miles;
/score:points
muestra_piedras
scorecounter
_parent.totalscore

a few tutorials.

http://teamwolfpack.org/downloads/tarcreating.swf - How to create a tar!
http://teamwolfpack.org/downloads/movie.swf - Sothink/UAE mix(v2game converting)

here is a few games for everyone to use on your forum and look at

Best converting tool to use would be URL Action Editor, Action Script Replacer and Sothink Quicker(for buttons)

Also when adding a v32game to your arcade, be sure you have secure scoring option set to yes.

Any problems feel free to post, any game request? Post away as well!

Never mind, ignore what I said. Didn't post this earlier since I was on holiday.

I did look for some open source tools, despite what the article says. I found a couple of things but I can't say if it is possible yet.





For anyone looking for games....

Oh, and I doubt the button is just an example button. He released it as a game at the official site, and some others. Which got like a 1 star rating from everyone for semi obvious reasons of not being a game. Oh well.

Thank you, :up:

[Bravo]

how can this work with the vbulletin version?

if (yy.savescore == 1) {
        if (ipb_score == undefined) {
            ipb_score = eval (_global.ipb_scoreVar);
        }
        xx = new LoadVars();
        xx.arcadegid = _root.ibpro_gameid;
        xx.gscore = ipb_score;
        xx.gname = _global.ipb_get_gname();
        xx.enscore = (ipb_score * yy.randchar) ^ yy.randchar2;
        xx.send("index.php?autocom=arcade&do=savescore", "_self", "POST");
        stop();
    }
    _global.ipbSend = function (ipb_score) {
        _root._visible = false;
        _root.enabled = false;
        xx = new LoadVars();
        yy = new LoadVars();
        xx.sendAndLoad("index.php?autocom=arcade&do=verifyscore", yy, "POST");
    };

the file it submits and verifys is the ipb version url
"index.php?autocom=arcade&dp=verifyscore"

Im trying to understand this so I can make none v32games into v32games for the vb version

[rapidphim]

can someone please have a good instruction on how to convert ipb game to vb games?

[AshMagic]

Do you have to edit the actual Flash files to do this?

Do you think you could help me with the game conversion here?

I don't have a flash editor. We converted from V3arcade a few days ago, but we no longer have the database entries so the conversion program does not work. I can send you the swf files via email. Anyone wanna help me out?
