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.

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)

What is the problem with your leaderboard?

[Recon0303]

it doesn't work at all, I get an error and I never seen any show up, I did add the link like one someone showed me on these forums awhile back.

Oh I just got a member of my community saying all the new games from mochi they get a page not found when they try and keep a high score now..

The games that came with vbulletin work fine now .. but I ADDED about 200 games, from mochi last night, none of them keep a high score.

Do you have a link to your site so I can get a better understanding of what is going on? (with viewing permissions or temporary account if possible)

Did you upload the crossdomain.xml file in the v3arcade.zip archive to your site root? (ie www.yourdomain.crossdomain.xml)

[Recon0303]

No I have not let me try that adding that xml to the root.

not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

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?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I get this, I added that file, but should it be in the root VB, or arcade part of the root. Want to be sure. I will PM you an account to look.

I see your leaderboard just fine, check your links in the Navigation Manager as it looks like you've set them up wrong.

[Recon0303]

The crossdomain.xml is not in your site root.

It should be www.yourdomain.com/crossdomain.xml not www.yoursite.com/folder/crossdomain.xml - you should also have a html verification file from MochiMedia in your site root?
