v3 Arcade Tournament · **Released**: 12-27-2007

SK v3 Arcade Tournament v1.0.5

A tournament add-on for v3 Arcade v1.0.7 (by John Warwick)
Created for vBulletin v3.6. Now also tested on v3.7 and v3.8.

This add-on is not needed and doesn't work on the new v3Arcade 2.0.0. It has its own tournamnet system (based on this one).
Since this is now starting to be obsolete I've removed the Supported status. I will of course still try and help those who use it as much as I can though.

By S?ren Klasson - http://www.sk-software.com

Updated 2008-06-13 to v1.0.5 see version history below for more details.

Note that it is a new template change in template FORUMHOME for v1.0.4.
So don't forget to add that one if upgrading. See install.txt file in zip package.

Is there an addon you know of (or maybe implemented in a next version) that will put a kind of "announcements" or "scoreboard" on the mina page?

Like "4 people player Tournaments now, 2 active tournaments, 4 tournaments awaiting players"
?

I haven't heard/seen such addon. But I have had similiar requests before. So something to that affect will be added. Not sure exactly how it will be done yet.

If you mean removing and adding to the built in casino cash system when joining and winning tournaments so sure. See previous answer about the time though

thnx

... i'll be keeping an eye out for updates then.

GuaRRand · #44 06-03-2008, 08:33 AM

Ok, found one problem...

SOMETIMES (and yes, i also hate it when that happens ... no clear problem, just a random thing) when a person creates a tournament, not everyone sees it.
Some people see it in "Awaiting players" and some dont.

Its not somethign that happens all the time, just "sometimes" ...

I havent found any similarities yet in when it happens and to whom.

Anything i might be missing??

Usergroups etc.. are all good. i checked.

I am sorry about this.
A new version (1.0.5) has been uploaded already.

It contains two bugfixes.

'Tournament started' message to the arcade news is now actually sent when tournament starts. Not when someone is joining a tournament.
New hook 'arcadetourmnt_start' moved to correct place in code.

Would it be possible to add functionality to automatically cancel a tournament if it is not moving along? I am having some issues with members who sign up for tournaments, but even after being reminded, fail to submit their scores and let the tournament progress. I am looking for an option to cancel a tournament after x days if it has not advanced to the next round in those x days.

Thanks!

I am actually in the process of migrating back to v3arcade right now thanks to this mod and a few others and will most likely be making quite a few improvements to the systems.

I was thinking instead of ending the tourney after x days we disqualify the person who hasn't submitted a score which would then auto advance the other user they were playing against.
