vbProArcade Beta 2
1/5/03: Beta 2 released 9/12/02: Beta 1.03 zip updated to include safe mode fix 9/3/02: Beta 1.03 released -- small bug fixes, see below 9/1/02: Beta 1 of vbProArcade has been posted. Please see below for installation instructions. Background Information vbProArcade is a fully-customizable Flash arcade add-on for vBulletin, complete with game-by-game scoreboards, forum integration, a "champions" system, statistics, and more. This is an extensive hack that is still in BETA form, and I don't recommend installing it if you are not willing to work through potential issues and future updates/upgrades! I am working on making the installation instructions as easy as possible, but it will probably be some time before it is perfect. Watch this post for updates as they happen, and check out screenshots from the list below. If you would like to see the hack in action, you may visit my Shadows of Namek forums. You will need to register to play, but you can view the scoreboards and the arcade itself as a guest. Credits This hack materialized thanks to work and help from a number of people and forums. Here they are:
So far, there are FIVE GAMES that work correctly with this hack. They are: Breakout Pacman Snake Space Invaders Tetris All five .SWF files are included in the release archive. There is now a Flash Games Development Thread for the purpose of modifying existing games to work with vbProArcade, or for creating new games to be compatible with vbProArcade. If you have a game that you wish to see modified but don't know how, post the .FLA source in that thread and hopefully somebody can assist you. Installation Instructions Download the file attached to this post, unzip it and familiarize yourself with the contents BEFORE doing anything. There are TWO separate files worth reading, the Documentation and the Installation Instructions. I recommend that you read both BEFORE doing anything else. Once you have done this, the instructions to be followed are contained in vbproarcade-install.txt. Follow them as precisely as possible. If you encounter an error somewhere, it is likely that you missed a step or made a small error. Please double-check your work BEFORE posting about problems here. And it cannot be said enough: read that file before you do anything, and if you are unsure of something, please post your question(s) before attempting to install the hack. Problems and Fixes/Workarounds (as of 1/5)
Here is the list of stuff that I know does not work. I will be working towards correcting these bugs BEFORE adding new features for the next release.
Here is the list of posts from this thread that contain screen shots for the new version. Check them out!
This is the stuff that is in progress for future release:

Wow.. cool feature for the board, this game hack. Really love it.
Installed it manually, without any problems at all. But i have some problems with it... hope you could help me out there.... There seems to be a problem with some of the members, can`t see more that half of the games, but me as a admin can see them all and play them all. And the other thing, is that some members, can`t even get access to play them. Kinda strange... Any clue ??? Cheers. |

Iceman..the fix is in this thread...it has to do with the USER GROUPS.
You need to find the code in the proarcade.php its like LINE#40 if (($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 2) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 5) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 6) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 7)) { You need to add whatever other USER GROUPS you have created to this..example below of what I added. if (($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 2) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 5) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 6) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 7) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 8) and ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] != 12)) { See how I added 8 and 12...you can get the USER GROUP NUMBER# by running your Mouse over the EDIT and it will display in your status bar..if its to big in your status bar then right click on edit and COPY SHORTCUT..then paste it into NOTEPAD to read the URL...the USER GROUP # will be seen in the URL Hope this helps Also make sure you TURNED 'ON' all the games in the Admin Panel |

I'm wonder ing if there is a way to change the way the championship text show up the postbit, the red looks really tacky imo, and I'd liek to also move the location of it, I'm clueless as to were I would go to edit that info.
One of the members on my forum suggested a different icon for each championship for each game, i think that would be awesome. |
