You do not need vps or dedicated to run the arcade. 1000's of users run the arcade with shared (including myself) with no problems. Here is the zlib site: http://www.zlib.net/

Your host does not want to install zlib for some reason or another. This will also cause problems with other mods that are compressed. I'd ask why they do not wish to do this install another library that will use compressed files which are very common for websites.


I realize I don't need those options to run the Arcade. It is just my host won't run zlib because of this:

The mod version here needs to be updated.So you know incase you have any trouble.the site I sent you too is the offical support site for the arcade.There you can get games for it and all the support you'll need.Sorry if I came across as rude.I got my coffee now so I'm better.lol.

clanny

Oh nono.
Wasn't rude at all, you helped me, i should thank you so much for that lol.

So when i installed the arcade mod it doesn't have any default games or anything at 1st i need to install them at the offical arcade site for them right? are the games hard to install , its like a mod too right?

Rider, is there a way to turn off the messaging when your high score gets beat by someone else?

No.Download the gamepacks from smfarcade to your pc.Then goto admin>games.install and use the zipfile upload option.Another way to install the games is to upload the gamepacks directly to your games directory via FTP or Cpanel.

clanny

The 1st way to install the game

Download the gamepacks from smfarcade to your pc.Then goto admin>games.install and use the zipfile upload


I don't need to edit any of the files or parser any of them right? since its game file, and its for my custom theme

There's no need to edit anything when installing that games.It doesn't matter what theme you use when installing games that only makes a difference whn installing mods.Then you should be using the default theme for that.

That option is with every version.Another place you can look is in admin>arcade settings and see if the option to enable pms is there.Can you post a link to your site.I know you've had some problems so its time to fix them.

SgtMic

Checked there also. No go.
