a few users after having played 1 battle, have experienced massive leaps in there MA and PP levels (from 30 to 13000 in some cases). I made sure i configured the rpg system before these initial battles, but have no idea why they are getting such huge bonuses after battles??
also, when a battle is submitted, the person being challenged receives a pm with a "To go to your battle click here". my "here" link is completely broken though, and won't work in it's current state. are you able to let me know which script i need to edit to fix this up at all?
cheers and nice hack, has certainly impressed a lot of my members
First of all, great work so far on the hack - it's ideal for the site I'm currently working on. I did have some major problems with it however, which I'll report here hoping they can be fixed in a later version.
I installed it earlier today without any major issues. I did notice a discernable slowdown of the entire site after the installation when performing RPG actions (creating test characters and performing test battles), but as I say, from a functionality perspective everything worked perfectly.
After about 20 minutes of commencing testing of the RPG hack (with only me and one other user online) my webhost suspended my hosting account. I contacted them and discovered that the CPU utilisation on my shared server had gone through the roof from the moment I installed the hack (they named the particular RPG queries and tables that were generating the problem). :ermm:
Luckily enough, I'd taken a full site backup prior to installing the hack so reverted to that and everything is now back to normal and my account is, thankfully, unsuspended.
I'd like to be able to perform further testing by cannot take the risk of reinstalling the hack and losing my host. I also noticed, when visting a demo version of the hack on a previous poster's site, that I experienced a very slow response and a number of timeouts when using the RPG menu.
I'll keep an eye on things and see how they progress as I'd really love to be able to integrate this into my site but cannot in it's present release.
>_> hmm might want to upgrade hosting? i have a unregulated bandwith and space so i have no problems when i use alota space my host upgrads or moves me to a larger server

I have been watching this for some time now and first up I would like to thank Revan for putting the time and effort into making this available for free, and not having to pay for an rpg hack. Thank you.
Some questions not on installing this hack for I haven't begun that process yet but more along the lines of "How does one use" this hack?
I see how you buy gear and join a battle, but an explaination of how limit breaks, and AP and such function would be helpful. How do you actually "battle".
Also how does a member gain gil? Is this via postcount?
Lastly what configuration is needed in the admincp for this and is there a "standard" set of numbers someone could provide, or numbers they are using on thier board?
Again Revan awesome effort. Alot of people have been waiting for this since vb3 was released.
EDIT: lol i didn't have a wep but now i do and it says You do not have a weapon. so i can't click it >_<
Hmm.. try entering your ACP, edit the Weapons category and change it from 'Current (Weapons)' to 'Weapons'

This has never happened to me, and I run this hack on my Apache on localhost.
Now IF this hack had CPU problems, it WOULD show itself on such a poorly configured "server" as my localhost

I cant go into details atm as I am in school and my IT teacher actually got the 24 inch dildo out of his ass and started talking XD
You can enter your ACP and read the RPG Admin Manual, but that is hopelessly outdated. It will be updated in a future version
On a more general note, Im as of now working on phrasing the entire hack
Thanks for all the positive feedback, it felt damn good releasing this and bursting the bubble of those bastards on wBBMods...
They was all "Alot of people chose wBB over vB because of this rpg hack", now they = pwned! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!1111one
O sorry I must of missed it. battle.php
I cant remember if I put in the readme that you should change the url, but theres this variable you can use instead, I think its $vboptions[bburl]
Code:
Find the phrase "To go to you battle, click" and change the 'http://[whatever url it has now]/battlefight.php' to '$vboptions[bburl]/battlefight.php' and reupload
####################
now change it to your forum url
###################
The text "http://forum.ultimateff.net/" does not exist in any PHP file whatsoever. How has anyone installed this? I can only assume that need was removed and this step wasn't taken out of the instructions?
