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:

If you've got 23 of them, then you didn't miss any. (We assume the content came out okay so they're all complete.)
I've seen several comments before where a person installed the templates well enough, but they were put under an old/discontinued style. So double-check that if you have a default and custom style[s]. Check to see if the php scripts ended up in the right place. It's easy to put one in the forum directory when it should be in forum/admin.... and so on. Check to be sure your queries set up the tables correctly. Do you have 5 new tables in your database? arcadeconfig arcadegames arcadescoregroups arcadescores arcadetopscores Do you have an new Arcade section in your Admin Control Panel? vbProArcade General Options Modify Games | Add Game Scores Editor |

I fixed my problem with the images. If anyone has any HTTP restrictions (including the hack here at vb.org for server flood control) - this is what is causing the images not to work correctly

Man I can't wait until this one gets ported over to VB3.
Out of all the hacks I lost when I switched over, this is the only one users are complaigning about loosing. |

I don't know if anyone ever brought this up or noticed this or if it's just me.
Though from time to time when people go into the arcade, on user locations, it will show them doing whateve they are doing, and it will also show a guest doing the same thing with the same ip. Is there any fix for this? |

Can someone please modify the code to only save the top 100 scores in the scoreboard? Some of my games have like 1000+ scores listed which is unnecessary and a waste of space. I tried modifying it myself but I keep screwing stuff up.

Ditto, that's the main reason why I have not moved my forum over to vb3.. A TON of members play the arcade, what would they do at work now?!? How hard would it be to port it over? I'd love to see it as soon as humanly possible, this is really a great hack |
