vB Flash Player 1.3 - Play Any Flash Game or Movie in vB!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: This used to be my vB Tetris 1.2 hack. It's been improved to play any Flash game or movie.

Purpose:
------------------

Install this hack ONCE and you can play any SWF game or movie totally integrated inside your forum! The name of the game or movie will be automatically shown in the page title, forum nav bar, and table heading! Just upload the SWF file to your forums directory and then use this URL (changing it to suit your forum directory):

http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

You can even set the width and height or background color of the Flash movie or game using the URL command line and parameters.

http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename&w=1024&h=768&b=000000

Good for those of you who run your site at HIGH resolutions. If you don't enter the width or height parameters, the Flash game or movie will automatically default to 600 x 400. If you don't enter the background color, it will default to your forum page background color. Only registered members will be able to play the game or movie - unregistered users will get the "no permission" log-in page.

Installation
-----------------------

EASY! Takes 1 minute. All you need to do is create 2 templates, and upload 1 file, and you're done. (No db queries to run, no php file edits! )

1) Create 2 templates with the text files included - just copy the contents of the text files into the templates with the same name:
flash
error_flash
2) Upload flash.php into your forum directory. The hack is finished!

Then, to play any Flash SWF Game or Movie inside your forum:
1) Upload the SWF file to your forum directory.
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)


Parameters:
--------------------

play = name of SWF file (without the .swf extension - make sure the capitals and small letters are the same!)
w = width of Flash movie or game
h = height of Flash movie or game
b = background color of Flash movie or game (in hex WITHOUT the # - eg. 000000 for black or FFFFFF for white)


To use default width and height is 600 x 400, or default background color which is your forum background color -
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

To set your own width or height:
http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename&w=1024&h=768&b=000000


Tetris
-----------

For example, with this hack I've included the Tetris SWF file that was included in my original tetris hack. This game is public domain. To let your members play good old-fashioned Tetris on your forums:

1) Upload tetris.swf to your forums directory (included in the zip file).
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=tetris
The Tetris Flash Game will play integrated into your forums. This works for any Flash game or Movie.

Like I said in the first post, I "ported" this over from a vBPortal add-on - I'm not responsible for coding the actual Flash game itself - I've left all the credits in the actual game to the original programmer. All I did was make it work for vB. As it was free with the vBPortal addon, I assume the same applies to vB.

Glad it's public domain, I've already hacked it to pieces!

In order to do the leaderboard system, I'm going to need to redistribute a new flash file. I'll try to make some improvements, as long as you're sure that it's legal.

Hey guys, installed the hack on my board:

http://www.exoticcarforums.com/tetris.php?s=

Looks great, but I would like to modify the SWF file a little bit- change the style of the font/lettering to match my board- maybe add a "featured at ExoticCarForums.com" image. How do I do this?

Any help?

Also, I would love to have a high scores board. I think someone should do a step by step installation of that for dumbies like me

Do you have Flash Kenny?

Just in case anyone was wondering, the Flash is under GPL

Well, so far:

http://www.eovie.co.uk/pics/tetris.swf


Take into account that it's not fullscreened when embedded in the page, and looks a lot better. Also: it displays the username of the person playing it and the amount of points they have, you won't see that because it's not in the page!

Edit: To see it with the fields filled in:

http://www.eovie.co.uk/pics/tetris.s...isitor&left=50

Also, the logo is supposed to be pixelated. It doesn't look that bad when it's smaller!
