vB Hangman 1.2
---------------------

The classic word game is now integrated into your forums.

Features :
------------

1) Allow/ Disallow guest access to Hangman in Admin CP
2) Set number of attempts in Admin CP
3) Add words in Admin CP
4) Use words of any length
5) Use as many words as you want
6) Put in a SENTENCE, or MULTIPLE WORDS
7) Ability to use NUMBERS and CHARACTERS like ! or ?
8) Totally integrated into your forums, with your forum colors and layout
9) Easy installation file that you run to automatically add database settings
10) Store hack version of the hangman.php courtesy of Zajako

Installation :
---------------

Simple.

1) Upload vbhangman_install.php to your admin directory, and run it, and then follow the instructions (you can run it again to uninstall this hack). This will add settings to your database automatically. Delete this file after you have done this.

2) Upload hangman.php to your forum directory.

3) Make a hangman subdirectory in your images directory. Upload the image files to the images/hangman subdirectory.

4) Make a new template "hangman" and add the contents of the hangman.txt file into this.

5) Go to your Admin CP, then to the vBulletin Options section, and set whether you want guests to have access to Hangman, how many attempts you allow (default is 6, any higher and you will need to add your own custom hangman images), and then add your words. Separate each word or words or each sentence with a comma. For example...

hello,yahoo!,3 blind mice,12 apostles,vbulletin,good morning,good afternoon,this is cool

(numbers and special characters are fine!)

Then, just go to http://www.yourforums.com/forums/hangman.php to play Hangman!

Enjoy!

like why does it have a second /forum there ?

First of all, that is the modified hangman.php you are using by Zajako - not the hangman.php that I originally made. If you use the modified hangman.php you need to have Lesane's store hack installed first. The error you are getting means you don't have his hack installed. The "storep" column is the Store Hack field.

Just upload and use the hangman.php from the ZIP file, not the store version.

Secondly, the second /forum means nothing - it's just a side effect of your db error.

Tip: If you didn't know, you can also use numbers and characters like ? or ! in your words -

for example:

3 blind mice,12 apostles,yahoo!,...

The numbers and characters will just automatically show up when you user plays hangman like this:

3 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

So the 3 will show up in "3 blind mice".

For "yahoo!" it will show up like this:

_ _ _ _ _ !

Nice hack but I already have enough things eating up bandwidth and this would do alot more damage to it lol I would install it but bandwidth is killing my site. I had fun playing it on hellsatan's site but another problem with having high scores is that once you've done all the ones listed then it repeats itself and the members could just sit there repeating it until they got top score :P

This hack rocks!!
Another great one frome Erwin!!
Thank you very much!!
A "JohnWarwick" Arcade-Integration would be the bomb.
Hope someone thinks about it.

I wonder if the store version is adding 100 points to a successfull attempt over and over because members can play the same string of words again untill they are very rich. Play again? ... and there they go. How to prevent this?

How can you make it play another string of words after a win?
Good and nice hack though.

Clicks install

@[D]Vincent -

That is why you should add hundreds of words to it

Ninth Dimension · #59 10-25-2002, 10:15 AM

I've got a cool idea, why don't we all compile lists of words based on a range of diffrent topics??

I can do one for games, and everyone else can do lists for other topics, depending on your site. i'll have my games one online a bit later for you all to use if you want to.

erwin, is there a limit to the number of words you can have?

hellsatan, i know it's late, but happy birthday.

Chris M · #60 10-25-2002, 10:23 AM

I don't think there is a limit...

And thanks

Satan

Ninth Dimension · #61 10-25-2002, 10:26 AM

there is always a limit - but as the data field uses the "mediumtext" field type, it will take a damn long time to fill up
