vbProArcade v1.0 Flash Games Development

vbProArcade v1.0 Flash Games Development Thread

This thread is intended to provide support for those who wish to find new games for their Arcades, or wish to assist in the development of new games for vbProArcade, or wish to modify existing, open-source Flash games for use with vbProArcade.

Note to vbulletin.org moderators: I could not find an appropriate place for this thread, other than the Beta Hacks forum, so here it is. If you feel this should be moved somewhere else, by all means do so. An additional reason I posted it here was because, to my knowledge, only registered users can view this thread, which may contain hack code at one point or another.

For the hack itself, you will need to see this thread. The Flash Development thread that you see here is just that, and should only be for the discussion of creating/modifying games to work with vbProArcade. Any discussion of or support for the hack itself will be conducted in the other thread.

For documentation on how to modify a game to work with vbProArcade, please see the vbProArcade documentation, which will always be contained in this post. I will try and update this post whenever I update the documentation itself.

A list of current games can you find in the second post.

Before you modify ANY game's source or post it here, you must MAKE SURE that you have the author's permission to modify and redistribute the code, compiled or otherwise.

As games are modified and posted, I will update this post to list them, so that people running vbProArcade may find and install them more easily.

I've added a "submit score" button to Funky-Pong in order to keep it from auto-submitting. This makes the game much more fun, so if you've already added it you might wanna switch to this version instead.

I also updated the zip in the original post, so if you download it from there make sure to clear your browser cache.

Here's the updated zip.. Just replace the old .swf file with this one.

THANKS!! :banana:

very cool guys, question for adding store hack, arcade pass to the arcade which install text do I use to install with? beta update, install or darkjim.txt?

I made a small icon for quickshot..

as for jewels, is it possible to add a submit score button like you guys did with funky pong :P

we just got level 23 heh

ye i noticed that! i got so far and i didnt no how to submit score!!

[Jakor Sevel]

sweet, funky pong is a lot better this way. Now I don't have to submit till I get the highscore.....BWAHAHAHAHA!!! *cough hack cough* sorry. Anywayz, I should have cable as soon as I get home *crosses fingers* Than I'm finally gonna be able to convert games. It's gonna be sweeeeeet.

Anywayz, keep up the good work everyone.

score variable: $jewelsscore
hash offset: 5

i've added a Submit Score button for Jewels. I haven't tested this, since my board is being reinstalled.

[Zelda-King]

It ends the game but doesn't take you to the comment screen. Your score isn't recorded.

This 'submit score' thing is great though. It reduces the amount of pathetic scores that're recorded and saves space (as well as making the games better to play).

[MentaL]

whats the install info for quickshot??

$quickshot

5?

[-Sidekick-]

there isn't any... The game isn't ready for vbArcade. He's asking someone else to make it ready...

[kamu]

Long time no see Sidekick.

Ive been playin with quickshot, doubt I'll ever get it working tho.

[The Wedge]

does anybody know of any other places for FLA's insted of www.flashkit.com, there has to be other sites out there on the WWW.....

Regarding the problem with thumbnails not working properly, I'm going through the same issue.. I also can't upload thumbnails properly from the admin cp.. I *dont* have plesk OR safe mode on, and I have thie problem only with this script. Uploading attachments and avatars are perfectly fine... The initial bunch of games worked without a problem.

When I run those full query versions, it works great!

Any thoughts? I can try to install it all from scratch, but I know I did it slowely and perfectly the first time. However it never hurts to try.

All games work flawlessly except thumbnails. I even tried to insert them manually via phpadmin editing the proper row and that won't work. The thumbnails show a broken image.
