v3arcade alongside ibProArcade · **Released**: 08-28-2006

Does anyone have a good walkthrough for installing ibProArcade alongside v3arcade?

(Yes, I searched)

all in all this is not such big deal, BUT games do submit their score to arcade.php and that's the only problem, as both use this file as the main file.

But I just wonder why anybody wants this, as you would have two Gamelists, two Scoretables ect. there is no way to have "common data"

For me, the answer to that is simple. My games distribution site is meant to distribute both v3 and ibPro games. The forums are almost up and running and it will be nice to give people a chance to demo a game before wasting their time installing it when it is (in their opinion) not any good.

Arcade.php... maybe there is a way to detect in the arcade.php file if it is v3 or ibPro so it can redirect to a renamed PHP file (either v3 or ibPro)...

I would imaging you could perform a search and replace on the PHP / templates so that one of them is using something else, i.e. ibproarcade.php. It shouldn't take that long to perform and you could test it out in a test db.

but no games submits to any other than arcade.php so any renamed arcade would get no scores

Hmm. In that case I guess you'd need to recompile the games that you wanted to play and have two sets

What variables are passed back in ibProArcade/PNPFlash games that are not in v3arcade... or vice versa? If I can check for these variables, I may be able to write a plug-in to check those variables...

That will be a problem at all as next ibProArcade will come along with some other system of score-transmission to make everything more secure against any try of cheating.

Contact me via PM for details...

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
