Now, what does this hack do, you ask? It requires your users to pay x amount of money through the store to obtain an "Arcade Pass". This arcade pass permits users to play an unlimited amount of games in the arcade for an unlimited amount of time. Yes, there is alreay an arcade/store integration, but this isn't on a per-game basis. Have fun!
UPDATE
The Admin CP addon of setting the timeout time is complete. By setting 0 in the timeout box, you get it to be a lifetime pass, any other numeral, and the pass timesout after that many seconds (so expect HUGE numbers to be imputed ) Upgrade from the 1 Month BETA is included, so UPGRADE!
Ok. I changed my mind about releasing it as an addon, the PM came a little late to do that.
Now I am working on the final part of it. Adding the on/off switch to disable the pay-per-play or the arcade passes or both. Expect a release in the Full Release forum tommorow. Then I will work on the extra stuff I had planned. Until then.... REQUEST FEATURES!!!
I have now made it where if you have an epired (or no) pass, you have to pay x amount of points. I will now work on CP Integration (BTW, like the other one, there will be a jackpot, and also, the distributation of it will be automatic using a specific formula. )
WOW! Thanks SOOOO Much...I'll un-install his and re-install yours in a few days....DOPE!
I hope to get 2.0 up and released in the Full Releases tonight, but if I do, it'd be close or past midnight... maybe sooner... depends on how fast I can hack
So the release date will be tonight, tommorow, or maybe, if I am not lucky, wednsday.
Never the less what I just said, unless I am forgetting something, I have finished. Once it is packaged up into a txt file for full install and upgrade from previous version (and tested like crazY), I will post the big 2.0 in the Full Release forum. Here are some options I have added (not including existing options)
If user has no arcade pass they can pay per game played (cost configurable per game) (can be turned off)
Switch to turn arcade passes off (and require user to pay per game played)
Switch to turn the whole Arcade Pass Hack off. *****
Automatic Jackpot Controls
Once user finishes a game (if not paying per game) (or when they pay if using PPG), the cost of the game (configured in Admin CP) and the additional increment (configured in Admin CP) are added together and added to the jackpot.
Once a user finishes a game, their position is divided by the jackpot and added to the user's points and subtracted from the jackpot itself.
Jackpot On/Off Switch *****
***** - Master switch for the hack does not turn off the Jackpot, so to turn it off, you must select 'No' for Enable Jackpot.
