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 this working on 4.0.8 ?

[J19784B5A39B]

One of forum member post a bug/exploit/cheat:

Yes there is 1 bug, i discovered it myself, if u look at YetiSports 4: Albatros Overload, u will see my highscore 12681, which i did in 00:04. So what happend?
Urgent please:

I Ibproarcade vbuletin in v2.6.8: v3.8.4

" I was playing Yeti 1: Ridiculous Longshot, but cus it took so long to finish it, i deceided, that im gona put that game in background and im gona start playing Albatros Overload. Then when i wanted to submit the score in this game, i noticed that the other game was finished. So i submit that score first and heres the funny part. The score didnt go to Ridiculous Longshot, but to Albatros Overload. Both games got mixed somehow... So theres your bug... "

I was see 1 player do in 14 sec 270 points, but at game impossible to make more than 30 in a first minute. He is a cheater? Or buguser? How can fix that?
No other user have problem with impossible highscores?

I know, a flash game run at client side and post a score, and can hack a flash game, or a web parameters, etc...

IPB have a session handle bug too?

The user who is defying your scores is using a firefox add on called Tamper Data.

Ive used it myself and it works, for testing purposes of course, you need to ban that player from the arcade.

Have upgraded to 4.0.4 Patch 1 and have lost my arcade.

Uninstalled it and reinstalled it but when I execute /arcade.php I get a white screen.

Have been at this for 4 days now and totally lost, hence the post here.

Any help/pointers warmly welcomed.

i assume you mean the images you added per category.. these can be changed in the admincp under arcade, you'll need to make the images to replace the ones there .

start from scratch with the directions.. upload all the new files and set the chmod .. import the xml files .. If you need a hand you can grab me on msn .. user name in my profile.

I install this and find it has about 8 games. There are over 400 pages in this thread to try to go through, but I quit back at page 40 or somewhere.

I don't understand why we can't be instructed on where to get games for this thing. Can someone please explain? I have no use for this arcade if I can only have the 8 games that came with it, and I'm tired of searching through Google to try to find downloads that I can trust.

Done all that and still no joy.

Still the white screen!!!!

Headaches all around.
