I HAVE STATED FROM THE START THAT THE ARCADE HACK IS NOT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE. (Or at least it won't be now) Next time, READ THE THREAD. Perhaps then you won't be so misguided.
I've been posting screenshots because a lot of people are following the progress of the hack, and are interesting in how it's going. I'm not trying to smack anyone with a price at the end of it.
It's seemingly true that no matter how much time and effort I've spent on the original Tetris hack and tech support, some people are NEVER happy.

Here's a new game to play "Challenge Lanigironu" - it's just like challenge annica (for anyone in the UK) only Lanigironu will be playing insted.
OK, Lanigironu, you have got 4 days to build a fully working flash arcade hack for vB.
This is unbelievable...all of the hard work that John did, and some people STILL want this for free?
Where is that shaking head smilie that I built?
Thank you for all of your hard work, John, I for one appreciate it, and plan to make a donation...(please see my e-mail to you). If people think programming and debugging this stuff constantly is easy, they are sadly mistaken...

Ain't that the truth...two old adages come to mind:
Wait I am a little lost on what is going on. We have to pay for what? And what is the problem. I think I am missing somehting as well. Can someone inform me please. Thank you.

It's very simple.
John has released a Tetris hack which can be downloaded for free from the first post in this thread.
John is also making an Arcade hack, but that is not for public release.
As for the rest, it's just people attacking john for no good reason.

Basically, I'm nearly finished making what I call the "arcade hack" - like this tetris hack, but with more games and a better system. I never intended on releasing it to the public, and I don't have the time to release on vb.org. So, I'm releasing it to my friends and people who have supported me through donations.
Because a lot of people want it, I've been keeping us all up to date with progress via screenshots. Apparently this was wrong of me....
I'm not attacking john. Maybe I just missed where he first announced the hack. I thought he didn't reveal that it was payable at first.
Either way, people at vbulletin.org expect free modifications for the software they paid for when they come here. In my opinion, this shouldn't be here.

"Hello? Amy? Yeah, another one. 10 minutes? Thanks"
There. No excuse :

The whole hacks must be free mentality annoys me. If you want your board customized and don't want to pay for it a)Learn how to code and b) Figure the stuff out and do it yourself. Do NOT expect somebody else to spend THEIR time making your board better.
I no longer release hacks because idiots who aren't even qualified to run a website much less modify a complicated software package have taken most of the fun out of. I deeply love working with other developers to come up with new features, but it's not our job to listen to your whining and temper tantrums.
If mommy and daddy won't raise your allowance so that you can afford to pay developers to create modifications for you, then get a job or an education.
