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.

Thanks guys

This is actully a pretty good game, you can even play it with a friend (on the same comp) but only player1's score will be saved tho, and please note: you have more then 1 life, so you're score wont be submitted until all of you're life are gone

btw you will get more and more score for every level/life so the final score is much higher then the score you have when you died the last time (becaus the score start from 0 when you finnich a level/die) and it's the final (total) score that get saved

In the zip you will get:

modifyed game
thumb pic
king icon
readme file

In the readme file you will see both a manual install and a Query for those of you who have problems to install the games manual.

None of the icons are showing anywhere and it seems there is an issue with proimage.php and my php.ini configuration, but I have yet to figure it out.

Here is a result when I run the script from the address bar (with required variable)

I noticed there is a SPACE at the begninnning of the file. This appears even if I simply echo some text and exit at the beginning of the script.

Any thoughts??

i'm not sure what game you was trying to add, but if this happend to all you're games, then add the pics in you're adminCP

joe, good job converting games for the arcade.

*sigh* man i wish i knew where to find the fla for this one basketball game, it's 3D and gots great graphics and stuff, it'd be the best game for arcade yet IMO. Too bad i only have the swf.

[NuclioN]

I've spend some time to let this game work. It's a small poker game but it's great for the arcade. I shall add the fla and as you can see i've tried to catch the score but somehow it does'nt work so far. I hope someone can do this.

i have a small question about this hack, does this take a load of your bandwidth, and do you have to upload all the games to your host

[Jakor Sevel]

Ultimate: I wouldn't say it takes a load, depends how often your members use it and such, and how many games you have, how many members, etc. I suggest not installing it if you don't have very much bandwidth a month to give up. And yes, you do have to upload all the games to your host, at least I think so.

I've found this in the poker game wich is i guess the clue to the score variable.

score+=this.scoreadd;
if (score<=0) score=100;
