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:

I was just messing with the arcade, and saw noticed one of the coolest feature....the personal score display page!
I thought may be this could be a part/extra feature for the hack to show a link to a member's score page in their postbit (or anywhere else). Heres the code --------------------------------------------- What it does: It adds a link to a member's personal score page in his/her postbit. The code: PHP Code:
OR, if you dont want a button, simply use a text link like this: PHP Code:

when you install, this is what I use for directory,
Linux system url/forum/ url/forum/games/ url/forum/images/graphics/ in arcade setting I use games/ (not /games/) all swf goto games folder, all graphics for games goto url/forum/images/graphics/ ---- I also made a cleaned up version of all the templates which I posted somewhere around post 75+ I think that and the install script and I get a clean install ever time. hope that helps anyone having issues with the install.

First of all, wicked hack. Works perfectly for me and my users.
One suggestion that I have seen in this thread that has not been answered: How can we change the scoreboard so it only shows the top 20 (or something to that effect). It is a waste of space having each and every single persons score on the scoreboard. |

Better yet, is there any way I can completely get RID of the scoreboard function and just have the High Scores and the Top Score Board only?
Either is fine, it's just that I prefer to go with the easiest way out. lol |

Nice hack, working well, just need peeps to play and some new games. Also need to sort out banner/heading files to have picture link to games instead of a text link.
Keep up the good work. Pop along and have a go, www.4u-servers.net Any new games let me know please |
