ibProArcade is compatible to ibProArcade-Games (*wow* surprise!), v3arcade-Games and PNflashgames (www.pnflashgames.com, use POSTNUKE format).
PNflashgames does even offer Multiplayer-Games.


This Hack was originally done for Invision Power Board (IPB) by Chris Kelly and later adapted to work within vBulletin 3.0.x but had no real integrated AdminCP and even some illegal licensed Files from IPB included, so it was removed from official vBulletin-Sites.

ibProArcade for vBulletin comes along with a complete new AdminCP with even more options and improved functionality, has been bugfixed alot and I implemented some additional feature that where missing. All known security-issues found have been fixed.

ibProArcade is full compatible to PHP4 and PHP5 and works with all vBulletin 3.x.x (yes, 3.0.x + 3.5.x + 3.6.x + 3.7.x + 3.8.x) with all the same Scripts !
ibProArcade v2.7.5+ and later is full compatible to PHP5.6 and PHP7 and works with all vBulletin-versions 3.x/4.x with all the same Scripts !
PHP7.0/7.1 require minimum vBulletin 3.8.11 or 4.2.5 and ibProArcade v2.7.5+

Installation of ibProArcade is very simple and easy:

vBulletin 3.0.x
upload the Files
run the Installer
edit 4 PHP-Files
edit 3 Templates
add 1 new Template


vBulletin 3.5.x & 3.6.x & 3.7.x & 3.8.x & 4.x.x
upload the Files
import the Product-XML-File
edit 3 Templates



If you are upgrading from an existing Arcade, some information:

• For existing ibProArcade-Installations (v2.6.6+ and older) check the included Upgrade-Information (look in Archive)
• For existing ibProArcade-Installations (v2.5.1) just do everything like a fresh installation, your Games and Scores should be kept automatically
• For existing v3arcade-Installations (v1.0.x) for vBulletin 3.5/3.6 there is the converter available.

I want to say a big THANK YOU to everybody who helped in the 3 months of development, testing and bugfixing the initial v2.5.3+ (in alphabetical order):

Is that a good reason ? the creator should of known people would of had other hacks installed i installed this hack on one of my forums and didnt face a problem with it but whatever ya want to cry because i said this problem should of been fixed when chris did it for invision board.

How many times must you repeat yourself in this thread? I have no problem with someone else's opinion but when you state the same thing over and over again, it gets a little boring. This is a thread for the release of this hack. It is not a thread to trash it or the other arcade. If you don't like it or don't want to use it, fine. But stay out of the thread if all you are going to do is complain. Consider this your final warning.

They been bought out. This is who own's them now.

http://www.sourcekitsoftware.com

And as far as finding any of their games that are worth a crap, let alone games that are multi-player, good luck. I'm in search too.

Still, if that is available in the v3Arcade, what else is there that you don't know about? An arcade connecting to any other server for ANY reason is only inviting problems and complaints.

Why straighten something that's already straight? Last I saw there, you had to supply some personal information and the admincp integrates with John's site. There's was some validation and stuff also. Unless he's going to drop that for the public release.

Disappointing to see you playing such petty and political games, Boofo. Always respected the way you carried yourself. This seems beneath you.

Let Jenta be your willing and eager troll.

The petty bickering and such is so completely pointless. Spreading misinformation and bashing another hack that is the product of another coder's long-running efforts is just pathetic.

It's optional, troll. But you haven't let facts get in the way of your rhetoric yet, so why worry about them now?

[paulmjno]

I've just realised that the PM popup doesn't work in the Arcade, nor does my Chatters Online for my sigmachat integration.

What's in THIS one that we don't know about? It's not like the code is encrypted. Anyone and everyone will be pouring through it.

You use your moderator powers to warn others about bashing this or other arcade hacks, then turn around and do it yourself.
