vbProArcade v1.0 Flash Games Development

vbProArcade v1.0 Flash Games Development Thread

This thread is intended to provide support for those who wish to find new games for their Arcades, or wish to assist in the development of new games for vbProArcade, or wish to modify existing, open-source Flash games for use with vbProArcade.

Note to vbulletin.org moderators: I could not find an appropriate place for this thread, other than the Beta Hacks forum, so here it is. If you feel this should be moved somewhere else, by all means do so. An additional reason I posted it here was because, to my knowledge, only registered users can view this thread, which may contain hack code at one point or another.

For the hack itself, you will need to see this thread. The Flash Development thread that you see here is just that, and should only be for the discussion of creating/modifying games to work with vbProArcade. Any discussion of or support for the hack itself will be conducted in the other thread.

For documentation on how to modify a game to work with vbProArcade, please see the vbProArcade documentation, which will always be contained in this post. I will try and update this post whenever I update the documentation itself.

A list of current games can you find in the second post.

Before you modify ANY game's source or post it here, you must MAKE SURE that you have the author's permission to modify and redistribute the code, compiled or otherwise.

As games are modified and posted, I will update this post to list them, so that people running vbProArcade may find and install them more easily.

Hexxagon works like a charm!

any luck on 2 player games yet?

mv540, if you can do it the query way, it'll work much easier I think. If you have probs then do as I said but also change some info.

Hey,

Whenever I try to change an image or add a new game I get the following error...any ideas?

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.2.9:

Invalid SQL: INSERT INTO arcadegames (name,title,description,filename,active,scorevar,w idth,height,codebase,querystring,
objectparam,embedparam,championactive,championtext ,championcolor,playcost,jackpot,jackpotadd)
VALUES ('simon','Simon Says','Test your memory...','simon.swf','1','$simonscore','','','', '',
'','','1','Simon Says Champion','','10','0','5')
mysql error: Unknown column 'width' in 'field list'

mysql error number: 1054

[Silenced Soul]

Your width/height has no data in it, that might be why, I may be wrong though.

[.:.NetStartz.:.]

How do I fix that?

Even if I simplely try to upload a new thumbnail for a game I get an error.

[Link14716]

Looks like you installed the Arcade Pass Hack which remains incompatible with Beta 2...

I modified this game to work, although it's an extremely boring game, it's the easiest one I could find so far (most of these games are just terribly unorganized!)

It'd be easiest to add through the admin cp as previously described.

The hash is 5
The scrore variable is: $wordscore
The HTML can be copied from any of the original games (it can be found in the orginal zip docs)

nice game, it's boring yea but still i'm sure people will appreciate another game. Thanks for converting it. Could you try converting frogger? (attachment is a link or two back) it would totally kick if you did. I'm downloading flash mx tonight though, when i'm asleep, if i remember (I keep forgetting) and i'll be trying to convert it.
