Add-On Releases - v3 Arcade - Professional vBulletin Gaming (vB4)

v3 Arcade is now a member of the vBadvanced family!

http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=47571

The support forums & data from v3Arcade.com have been merged into the vBadvanced.com site.



=================================
v3 Arcade for vBulletin 4.x.x
For vBulletin 3.x.x, please see here.
=================================

Please note... until v3Arcade.com is upgraded to vBulletin 4, some demo sites can be found here. Also, because of styling changes introduced in vB 4.0.8 to allow customized user profile pages, this version requires 4.0.8+ to be installed.

"v3 Arcade" is the premiere arcade system written specifically for vBulletin. It's coded from scratch - not a port of an older version - and because it was coded specifically for vBulletin it uses the product system for code modifications & utilizes AJAX technology throughout. Here's a brief rundown of the features in this version of v3 Arcade.

Supports MochiAds, v3 Arcade and IBPArcade games!

• Usergroup based access permissions.
• Fully phrased, for each translation into other languages.
• An ever growing collection of third party add-ons
• A slick, professional layout.
• Edit-free template updates!
• User ability to specify viewing resolution while playing games.

v3 Arcade for vBulletin 4 also has some feature differences versus v3 Arcade for vBulletin 3. Currently that list includes....

• The separate Arcade navbar has been replaced with the options being moved up to the standard vB navbar. Be sure to turn on the navbar link! (ACP => v3 Arcade => v3 Arcade Settings => v3 Arcade General Settings => Navbar Link Position)
• When viewing a game categories other than the 'All' category, the category name will now be included in the navbar breadcrumbs.
• Added a new template "v3arcade_postbit_userid_trophy_wrapper" to allow adding some HTML around the arcade award images in the postbit.
• The category tabs shown on the main page will use the vB styling instead of their own defined styles. As we go forward the vB4 version of v3A will lose more & more of it's custom styling and instead use more of the new vB4 styling features elements.
• New option to display a "New" game category tab that will display all games in newest to oldest order. In addition to the new tab a "New Games" link will also be shown in the vB "What's New" navbar link. (ACP => v3 Arcade => v3 Arcade Settings => v3 Arcade Homepage Settings => Display "New" Category Tab)

Go to AdminCP > v3 Arcade > Maintenance > Rebuild Awards & High Score Cache > Click 'Start'

The multi-crowns should appear in postbit after running this.

Open index.php and do the following edit.

Find:

require('content.php');

Add above:

require_once('./includes/v3arcade_vbsuite_index_compatibility.php');

Save and upload. Close all of your browsers and restart.

IPB Scores Not Saving With vBadvanced CMPS
For those who are using vBadvanced CMPS and are using it in the same folder as vBulletin and are using the vBa CMPS script as their 'index.php' file instead of the default 'index.php' file

Look for.

require_once('./global.php');

and immediately *AFTER* it add:

require_once('./includes/v3arcade_vbsuite_index_compatibility.php');

Save and upload. Close all of your browsers and restart.

Worked like a charm!

New install, works great. Do have a styling issue though, not sure if it is vb4 or arcade issue, user avatars at the home arcade page are huge and overlap to the right. Checked the size in vb user options, seems fine. Something I can set in the arcade? What should I look for?

Many of my users are experiencing this when trying to save games. Seems most are ipb games imported. I am only using forum classic, not suite (CMS) at 4.1.11 so not sure the index.php edit should be an issue.

vBulletin Message
you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
1.Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2.If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

User group perms seem fine. All true.

Not sure what to check for now, as admin cant duplicate, with a test account as regged, could only duplicate once when adding a comment, but all perms are set to true.

Timeout is set for 15 minutes, had it set to 30, no difference.

All ipb games have game data files in forum/arcade/gamedata

?????

Can you PM me a link to your site and a test account login details/password? (just standard doesn't need to be admin or anything).

Been testing this out on the upcoming vBulletin release (4.1.12). Works without any problems. Only thing I would remind people of doing is re-applying the edit to your index.php if you are running either vBulletin CMS or vBAdvanced CMPS once you upgrade so that scores for IPB games continue to submit
