SMF Arcade

[Sadil]

That's the point, the images AREN'T in the package itself. They are missing from the installation package. They weren't even installed into the default core theme, because the core theme apparently doesn't use the images.

[SA™]

cant you dl the last version and use the images from that ?

Need help.  I am trying to install the arcade and have gotten this file not found error:

./Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english-utf8.php


I do not have this file, is it necessary if I am not using utf8?, can I install without it?

[SA™]

yep go ahead and install it if you dont use utf8 you will be fine

[Sadil]

Try downloading it yourself and then tell me. :p A fresh download only has:

favorite.gif
favorite2.gif
gold.gif
star2.gif

That's all. No other images. Hence my question where these images are.

The arcade doesnt use images in the core theme, the code for those buttons is just there to make it compatible with themes that use images. The images arnt included because they would be theme specific so you would need them to match the theme you are using. for themes that dont use buttons the arcade should work in the same way as the core theme once you have done the required theme edits in the code.

Hi.  I am in need of some assistance.  I installed smf arcade 2.0.13 on my smf 1.1.5 boards and it's working just fine, only I keep getting stuff like this in my error logs.

72.244.71.187                                                                                          0ef4bc79968ca393c0d4ba1deacfd7b8 
http://angieskidney.com/smfbb/index.php?action=arcade;sa=play;game=43 
8: Undefined variable: last
File: /xxxx/xxxx/xxxx/xxxx.com/xxxx/xxxx/Themes/default/ArcadeMenu.template.php (eval?)
Line: 664

And 8: Undefined variable: first on line 661.

What could be causing this issue and how do I fix it?

Thanks for suggestion but it won't work like this since if (in_array($context['current_action'], array( is used two times in file. However I think it could be done using part after.

I noticed that not all image files in a fresh new download of the latest release (2.0.13) are there. I'm missing several buttons when NOT using the core theme. They are:

/images/english/arcade_random.gif
/images/english/arcade_favorites.gif
/images/english/arcade_play.gif
/images/english/arcade_viewscore.gif
/images/english/arcade_random.gif

I'm not using the core theme so my theme is slightly broken on the arcade. It's looking for those specific image files, but they're not there. Any help with that?

Each theme uses different button set. You could use button generator if there's one for theme to make them.

So the files it's looking for are not in the install package by default, and they're not supposed to be there?


I'm having another problem though, regarding new membergroups that cannot view the arcade.

Existing membergroups (such as Global Moderator) can view the arcade just fine. When I create a new membergroup though, and I attempt to view the Arcade as a member of that membergroup, it won't show any games on the arcade.

The permissions are set okay. As a matter of fact, I copied the permissions EXACTLY from Global Moderator (which can view the arcade) and the new membergroup still can't view the arcade. I tried to dig through all the options there are, but nothing seems to fix this.

Regular members can view the arcade just fine, but every new membergroup I create for some reason can't view the arcade. Any help on that?

[fwitt]

the permissions for the arcade are quite flexable, because of this there are several things that affect whether a membergroup can see the arcade.

In your arcadeadmin area look at the Settings page, you will have a permissions mode set, if this is set to none then any membergroup with permission to view the arcade can play any game, if its set to catagories then only if that membergroup is listed in the catagories page can they view it and per game they have to be listed in that games permissions.

if it says catagory go to the catagory area of the arcade admin and click the + next to the catagory to open its settings and check your membergroup is highlighted.

if its says game go to the games page on arcade admin and click a game settings link and check to see if the membergroup is ticked there.

this means that there is flexibility controling who can access what games

Hi again.  Anyone have any thoughts on this issue?

[Sadil]

Thank you fwitt! I didn't realize that the permissions were set beyond the membergroups. That helped.

Is it possible to shut off all these pm's, notifying members they are no longer champions?  If so, what files do I have to fix?

Thanks

[fwitt]

to disable pm notification completly

Make sure you also check out this message to make sure that PMs are off by default. It's a fix that you'll need.

[whatnow]

Thank you, now I have another question. On the Arcade page, is there anyway to take off our header and everything else from the top of that page, without it coming off all the other pages?

Thanks

[fwitt]

I believe the header is in index.template.php, this is the same for all pages of the forum. you could try enclosing the code for the header in a statement such as

Code Select Expand


if ($_REQUEST['action'] != 'arcade') {

header code you dont wish to appear in the arcade

}


tey it on a test site first, this is just a possibility from the top of my head.
