vB Flash Player 1.1 - Play Any Flash Game or Movie in vB!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

vB3 RC 2 version
Updated: Added instructions to fix Who's Online location!
Updated: Fixed browser width bug!


This is such a simple hack I am almost embarassed to re-release it. But people wanted me to update it, so here it is.

Purpose:
------------------

Install this hack ONCE and you can play any SWF game or movie totally integrated inside your forum! The name of the game or movie will be automatically shown in the page title, forum nav bar, and table heading! Just upload the SWF file to your forums directory and then use this URL (changing it to suit your forum directory):

http://www.your-forum.com/forums/fla...?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

You can even set the width and height or background color of the Flash movie or game using the URL command line and parameters.

http://www.your-forums.com/forums/fl...h=768&b=000000

Good for those of you who run your site at HIGH resolutions. If you don't enter the width or height parameters, the Flash game or movie will automatically default to 600 x 400. If you don't enter the background color, it will default to your forum page background color. Only registered members will be able to play the game or movie - unregistered users will get the "no permission" log-in page.


Installation
-----------------------

EASY! Takes 1 minute. All you need to do is create 1 template, 1 phrase and upload 1 file, and you're done. (No db queries to run, no php file edits! )

Create a new "games" subdirectory and upload your SWF files there.


********** optional ******************************
To show that the member is playing using the Flash Player in "Who's Online", you can edit another file and add a Who's Online Phrase - instructions added.


Parameters:
--------------------

play = name of SWF file (without the .swf extension - make sure the capitals and small letters are the same!)
w = width of Flash movie or game
h = height of Flash movie or game
b = background color of Flash movie or game (in hex WITHOUT the # - eg. 000000 for black or FFFFFF for white)


To use default width and height is 600 x 400, or default background color which is your forum background color -
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/fla...?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

To set your own width or height:
http://www.your-forums.com/forums/fl...h=768&b=000000



Tetris
-----------

For example, with this hack I've included the Tetris SWF file that was included in my original tetris hack. This game is public domain. To let your members play good old-fashioned Tetris on your forums:

1) Upload Tetris.swf to your games directory (included in the zip file).
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=Tetris
The Tetris Flash Game will play integrated into your forums. This works for any Flash game or Movie.

Such a simple and useful hack.

Nice job Erwin. I have no use for it, but it should be useful to others.

This is GREAT hack, very simple, no file to edit, but very cool.

Why should you feel "I am almost embarassed", don't be, because this is really worth it.

Thank you,

That's in the template. Just edit the offending "phrase" bit out.
