Does anybody have a good tutorial on how to set up and use spells? I thought I'd created some, and when I go to battle it doesn't say that I don't have any spells, but no option shows up to let me actually use them.

Can you please post the path that the images will go to? Because one image folder is /image and the other is not.

And for some reason mine didn't work, I am almost positive I did it correectly. Everything in the AdminCP worked but when you submitted the info for the editing of the battles it said like: "Unable to find _____" I dunno, and then it redirected back to the options and it was updated. And then if you click Edit RPG Settings in your profile it wouldn't show anything, it would be blank.

• Enter your ACP
• Click "Add Items"
• Enter the item info, and choose "Spells" from the category dropdown.
• When you have submitted your new items, you will be redirected to the "Edit Items" category.
  (the following ONLY applies if your spells/weapons doesn't show in battle as spells!)
• Find the category names, and hit "Edit"
• In the "Battle Type" part, from the dropdown menu choose the function you wish this category to have.
• Hit Save

All images go in the "images" folder of the main style. Not the skins.
In the next version Ill post more clear instructions

And your ACP problem is you not applying the rpg_phrases.xml file according to the instructions. I would say the same about rpg_templates.xml for the Edit RPG Info in profile.

You have a choice of installing a navbar addon that adds a dropdown, or one that adds an extra navbar

I have another question, lol. I've just added a bunch of midi's to the system, when i was adding them I was getting some really wierd error:

Warning: Constants may only evaluate to scalar values in ..../html/BVE/forums/includes/init.php on line 341

(i edited the above, it does have the whole root to file bit)

And now people can chose midi's when they select a battle, but none of them actually play during the battle, has anyone come accross this, or is it just bad coding on my part?

The warning error is already well known, but I have a strong feeling it will be gone till the v3
And about the midi playing, it is IE only
As much as I hate seeing IE only stuff, and I wish I could just scrap it, people would probs want the midis in there hence it gotta stay

[SB2002]

lol, i'm using IE and i still can't hear it. It's not a big deal if it wont work, but i had peoplen asking me about it so i tried it today, drove me to distraction when it wouldnt play. As for the hack as a whole, they we're all dubious for a start, but now they love it, only trouble is im 0 and 7 in the battle arena, lol

Ok, I will fix those other two problems, I think your right, but I'm not clear on the images part.

One image zip that you have has a folder called images. I am installing this to the default VB Skin, so would you want it in forums\images\images ? Because you said all images go in our skin folder. Or would you want whats inside the images folder to go in THEIR images folder. And for your other zip, there is no image folder, so would I just extract all those files to forums\images?

EDIT: Now I am having all sorts of problems. I don't think everything is showing up correctly. My edit rpg options doesn't look like it should be, I just see text options to change etc. And I get this error when trying to go into the item shop:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.3:

Invalid SQL: SELECT uttpoints FROM user WHERE userid=2
mysql error: Unknown column 'uttpoints' in 'field list'

mysql error number: 1054

I don't know whats wrong I did everything in your instructions!

EDIT2: Nevermind, I need UCash and UShop installed. Hang on .

EDIT3: Ok no more MySQL errors, I installed Ucash and Ushop. But I still don't think its working correctly. I don't see my RPG guy appear when I post and other sorts of stuff, doesn't seem like I see anything. All I see is the text when I edit my RPG info, no picture of my guy etc. And there is no link the itemshop.php anywhere, how will people know where to edit their items?

EDIT4: Ok, I'm pretty sure somthing isn't right. My Forums are: Http://www.TheGamerNation.com/forums/ , we are still working on our site but untill we get our site done we are adding hacks to the forums before we go public. Can you please register and tell me whats wrong?

EDIT5: I got the RPG info to show up on each post by editing postbit template, your instructions only said to edit postbit_legacy...Now I still don't see RPG links so I don't know how users navigate to edit their RPG stuff. And how do I get my users information to show up on the left and not on top?

Thanks.
