(split) IPB pro arcade development

[soniceffect]

I agree with sooner95 ... better left for Addons now, ya done enough m8 .... Would be better to concentrate on perfecting the code, ensuring the avatars and v3importer is working etc, then once it`s release some of the coders can take the rains on providing addons for your excellent version of ibpro

You are currently not participating in the beta-test, so you got the original or modified ibProArcade, not the advanced one that is coming soon

Ok. Well, I got more of them overnight and the urls were formed differently, so I added this to my .htaccess.

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)union(.*) 
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://127.0.0.1 [L]

Hopefully that will hold me over until this is done. I also added union to the excluded from search list so that no one gets the error using search.

I have made a league addon and the next version im making i will be intergreating into the arcade if that helps anyone.
But sadly this is not going to be a quick make of a new league im trying to add alot more things than the vbleague has now.
Like team vs team and so on.
But this would be a addon to the arcade not part of it but that could be done in newer versions of the arcade if mrzero wants it to be.

[MrZeropage]

Provide me anything that is finished yet, everything else should be AddOns for the ibProArcade-Release

@micheal332001 could you please check if PNfg are working in PopUp in RC4.5 ?

There are hundreds of games that have been converted and tarred and are ready for installation at http://www.ipbarcadegames.com/ These are generally free versions of flash games available on the Internet, but have been "tweaked" to submit the score correctly to the Arcade. I have close to 200 games in my arcade from there. I've also learned how to convert my own Flash Games using guides and tool suggestions from that site.

First, what do you use to convert them? And anything I might be interested in? Please PM me with any details.

But this is only meant for the PopUp-play, isn't it ? If you play in the main window everything is ok I guess ... Please confirm thx

This is OK

You got the highest score of all time in that game, this is stored as long as it gets beaten. The score itself seems to be pruned by the autoprune-function, so there is no "your highest score" as this data is not stored seperatly but gets queried from the scores stored in the DB.

Please check, I guess autopruning is activated and your score of 1736 is no more in the scores-DB


Just confirm or let me know this is another bug *anxious*

[Okie]

Oh yes i do have that on i see what you mean now.
Yes the licensed games work great if you play them in the main wondow just not in a popup.

MrZeropage

Could you cange the tournaments so that the admin can make the tournaments
With out adding the players to it.
Then the players would have to click a signup button to enter that tournament.
As that would be the better way to have the tournaments to work.

[ggiersdorf]

Mr. Zero I PM you this, but whenever someone beats your Highscore it changes your PM popup window settings. I have DO NOT SHOW POPUP for new PM in my user preferences, but when someone beats my score. It changes it automatically.

Very annoying..

[MrZeropage]

@ggiersdorf
I found this issue and fixed it for the "gold"-release.

@micheal332001
I will fix that PNfg-popup-play-problem

The Tournament-Things is a good idea, but would delay the Release too much.
This should be an AddOn or something for the next "ibProArcade 2.6+" or something like that

To edit the flash files. I bought Sothink SWF Quicker v1.6 - it works well most of the time, but with more complicated games like the scrolling shooter game "RaidenX", it'll let you edit it to submit the score, but when the .fla is "exported" (recompiled) to .swf, it somehow corrupts the game, in RaidenX's case, it made the Boss at the end of level one unbeatable. There are better tools called "Buraks", but I don't have the money to purchase their toolkit yet.

[Sooner95]

Seems bout everything has been fixed for Gold, only one I havnt seen, or maybe i missed it, the bug found when instlling v3games from zip in admincp? Has this been addressed, or is it being addressed?

Decompiling of a swf file is against copyrights and should not be done at all with out the authors concent.
With all pnflashgames none of them have been done this way as they only use the fla files for games.
And most of the games used are open source files.
