vbProArcade Beta 2
1/5/03: Beta 2 released 9/12/02: Beta 1.03 zip updated to include safe mode fix 9/3/02: Beta 1.03 released -- small bug fixes, see below 9/1/02: Beta 1 of vbProArcade has been posted. Please see below for installation instructions. Background Information vbProArcade is a fully-customizable Flash arcade add-on for vBulletin, complete with game-by-game scoreboards, forum integration, a "champions" system, statistics, and more. This is an extensive hack that is still in BETA form, and I don't recommend installing it if you are not willing to work through potential issues and future updates/upgrades! I am working on making the installation instructions as easy as possible, but it will probably be some time before it is perfect. Watch this post for updates as they happen, and check out screenshots from the list below. If you would like to see the hack in action, you may visit my Shadows of Namek forums. You will need to register to play, but you can view the scoreboards and the arcade itself as a guest. Credits This hack materialized thanks to work and help from a number of people and forums. Here they are:
So far, there are FIVE GAMES that work correctly with this hack. They are: Breakout Pacman Snake Space Invaders Tetris All five .SWF files are included in the release archive. There is now a Flash Games Development Thread for the purpose of modifying existing games to work with vbProArcade, or for creating new games to be compatible with vbProArcade. If you have a game that you wish to see modified but don't know how, post the .FLA source in that thread and hopefully somebody can assist you. Installation Instructions Download the file attached to this post, unzip it and familiarize yourself with the contents BEFORE doing anything. There are TWO separate files worth reading, the Documentation and the Installation Instructions. I recommend that you read both BEFORE doing anything else. Once you have done this, the instructions to be followed are contained in vbproarcade-install.txt. Follow them as precisely as possible. If you encounter an error somewhere, it is likely that you missed a step or made a small error. Please double-check your work BEFORE posting about problems here. And it cannot be said enough: read that file before you do anything, and if you are unsure of something, please post your question(s) before attempting to install the hack. Problems and Fixes/Workarounds (as of 1/5)
Here is the list of stuff that I know does not work. I will be working towards correcting these bugs BEFORE adding new features for the next release.
Here is the list of posts from this thread that contain screen shots for the new version. Check them out!
This is the stuff that is in progress for future release:

Wow, this is incredible!! Love it.
Installed with little problems! How many people are displayed on the Scoreboard? Can we configure it just to show the Top 10? |

Sorry for the newbie question, but how do I switch these two colors. I want the border to be in the body and the body color to be the borders color.
Attached is how it looks like now, I want to reverse it. |

The arcade should use your forums colour scheme, if these colours are not working correctly then you might need to look at them again.
However, in answer to your question? How much do you know about HTML? If you are quite good at it when it's a simple case of re-arranging the {firstaltcolor } - {secondaltcolor } tags within the template (i dunno which one off the top of my head, sorry). I hope this helps? |

Thanks for your response bro.. For some reason it doesnt match my forum scheme.
Anyhow, i'm just okay at html etc. I snoop around and try to figure out what template to modify. |

cool hack..installed with 1 question:
the champion system - the current champ isnt showing up in the postbit..the radio box is checked to 'yes' for all the games in the proarcadeadmin.php - it says that vbProArcade Champion System must be enabled - is there somewhere other than the proarcadeadmin.php to enable this? |
