What is it ?
Another forum game. Maybe you know it as:
T'en fais pas (France)
Frustration (USA)
Chińczyk (Poland)
Mens, erger je niet (Netherlands)
Mensch ?rgere dich nicht (Germany)
I wrote this game in 2004 for vB 2.3, 3.0 and 3.5.
This version may work also with vB 3.7.x.
Notes & FAQs:
There is a minimum of 2 player required and there's a maximum of 4 players.
You also have the option to set 3 AI (artificial intelligences). That means,
1 human and 3 computer players = 4 players.
How to start:
Choose the count of human and computer players. If there's one or more player missing, the game is waiting for another human player. You can cancel the game every time.
Rules:
You know the game ? See rules inside the game.
Can I add my own boards/styles
Yes, you can. The image-folder is always:
images/fourpins/...
Inside, there are two styles (default and bird) to add a 3rd one, do the follwing things:
Draw a board with the sizes: 416x416 and call it: 3fourpins_MyBoard.jpg
Create the pins for that board (size: 32x32px) and place it into a folder called: fourpins3
So, the 3rd style is called in the game: MyBoard
vBplaza / vBcredits
Yes, this game also works with both.
Grammar and mistakes:
You have two options:
1.) keep it
2.) let me know what I have to change - and I will do it
have some questions - can you make to refresh only game - not whole site?
can you find some better animation for dice and make that all players see dice?
how to change some rules on play - make like home you go rules?
Refreshing is always tricky for games (that's the greates problem).
Another idea is AJAX, but this is a lot of hard work.
So, the easiest way is to refresh the whole page - that's why you can set the refreshtime in the AdminCP.
If you like, simply change the images *g
Rules in game ?
Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean.
Wouldnt it be better if it were in an iframe to only refresh the game & not the whole site?
Bug?: When rolling the dice, I rolled a six. But game refreshed & it turned into a five....this happens after every roll for myself & cpu players...the number on the dice changes.
I don't think that's actually a bug, as it just appears to be the image displayed before your actual roll, which is not until the page refreshes.

If you can get the page to at least load on an anchor point, that would help somewhat.
