Can I change games directory? · **Released**: 10-03-2011

Hi,
Thanks a million for this incredible gift of yours.

My question is this, can I tell the script to use a different (outside) directory for installing games? Like give it a different path...

Thank you.

if you edit the files..
Like I have my games installed to a different dir called /arcade/games
instead of /arcade

example.. in the arcade.php
you'll find

Code:

function pnFlashGames_getChecksum($file){
 $file = "arcade/".$file.".swf";
 if($fp = fopen($file, 'r')){
  $filecontent = fread($fp, filesize($file));
  fclose($fp);
  return md5($filecontent);
 }else{
  return false;
 }
}

the edit you would make would be

Code:

function pnFlashGames_getChecksum($file){
 $file = "arcade/games/".$file.".swf";
 if($fp = fopen($file, 'r')){
  $filecontent = fread($fp, filesize($file));
  fclose($fp);
  return md5($filecontent);
 }else{
  return false;
 }
}

2nd example

Code:

  


	 		 $dirr 	=  PATH."/arcade";

would be

Code:

  	 		 $dirr 	=  PATH."/arcade/games";

1 more quick example

Code:

value="./arcade/{$game['gname']}.swf?tgame=0&pn_gid={$game['gid']}&pn_license={$game['license']}&pn_checksum={$game['checksum']}&pn_domain={$game['domain']}&pn_uname={$game['username']}" />

Code:

value="./arcade/games/{$game['gname']}.swf?tgame=0&pn_gid={$game['gid']}&pn_license={$game['license']}&pn_checksum={$game['checksum']}&pn_domain={$game['domain']}&pn_uname={$game['username']}" />

there is 4 total in that file..

and your 2 skin_ files have around 4 places to edit..
there is like 10 in your admincp in your arcade.php file

if you go ahead with this do it on a test site ..

and back up your DB and files If you attempt this on your live site
