Topic: Request: Arcade mod

Something like vbArcade for vbulletin
(http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthre ... ght=arcade)

"The v3 Arcade is exactly what the name implies - an online games arcade that offers seamless integration with your vBulletin forum."

You can integrate flashgames...

Can someone port it to punbb?

(got the code if you need it)

yep, that's for vBulletin, any1 seen for punbb?

Re: Request: Arcade mod

no i was just giving the link, i'm pretty sure theres nothing like it for punbb yet, however someone might want to do a games arcade for 1.2 (Gary13579 maybe?)

Re: Request: Arcade mod

yea, i would love to do it, but sadly im lost in doing it. i downloaded a random ame, and have no clue how vBulletin works, and cant find out, because i dont have a lisensce.

i might find a way to get a few games in, but dont expect the entire arcade..

give me about 2 weeks.

Re: Request: Arcade mod

i made one for PHP-fusion, but i ended up deleteing it befor i could finish it cuz i got ticked at php-fusion and got punbb back. but if i have time, i probly could make one....the only problem i had was trying to get the score from the swf files, but the rest was simple for me.

Re: Request: Arcade mod

well, thee must be a query in the php file that will somewhat show you how to get a score from it.
otherwise ther wont be a highscore!

Re: Request: Arcade mod

woah...
looked at it, and the code is in the flash file.

i was in over my head. it will not be done by me, sorry.

if you want just the games, and not the high scores, i can do that.

Re: Request: Arcade mod

i found a prefect program to edit the action scripts in the swf files but ts 50 bucks, ill look later for a free one. or maybe one i can dl off of suprnova.org, but you just need to make sure the action script goes to the same place

Re: Request: Arcade mod

if someone wants to make a retro arcade then neave.com games are pretty easy to integrate with highscores, they come with instuctions and everything and do work since i made one for phpbb before wink

Re: Request: Arcade mod

for phpbb yikes

Re: Request: Arcade mod

i followed a link on the v3arcade site that sent me to vBulletin,org, and i signed up there, but you cant download anything unless you can prove that you own vBulletin grrrr

Re: Request: Arcade mod

yes, lol, thats my problem also.

I got my vBulletin from suprnova.org, i do own it big_smile

I need someone that really owns vB to send it to me.

Re: Request: Arcade mod

now once i find out how the flash files work, and what data they send, i will make a release.


wish me luck!

Re: Request: Arcade mod

good luck gary, and dont forget to have funn :-)

Re: Request: Arcade mod

another bump in the road, i cannot figure out what varible the flash files set so the arcade knows the score.

Re: Request: Arcade mod

they probably call a php file with get variables

Re: Request: Arcade mod

yes, i know what file they call. when the game is over, they set some POST data and forward it to arcade.php. the problem is that i have no clue where its done in arcade.php sad

Re: Request: Arcade mod

just shove a phpinfo() at the end of arcade.php then look near the bottom of it

Re: Request: Arcade mod

I got the arcade mod for about 3 different BBs.

There's no need to go into the swf-files (if you got the correct swf game versions which returns the score, eg the ones for vBulletin/other bb).

All that need to be done is to collect the variables sent by the swf, save it into the database, make an arcade page, maybe a duel system or something.. shouldnt be that hard, just dont know php mysql enough wink


Just contact me on mail/icq 922109 and i'll send some examples to you!

Re: Request: Arcade mod

ewww, icq..
its much harder then that. the .swf files somehow redirect when there done, but i cant get them to. there must be some code that im missing...
