Will this mod be able to support games that ibpro supports? More complex games such as yeti sports.

Trafalgar, yes, v32 games such as Yeti Sports are fine.  In fact, I read your post and, since I've never played any of the Yeti Sports games, uploaded one just to test it out.  It plays and scores just fine.  You can read more about v32 games (games with gamedata folders) here:

or here, depending on your version of SMF and Arcade:

If you install the arcade, I recommend registering at http://smfarcade.info for quick help and also to learn more about the arcade by reading the forum WIKI.

Thank you. I was reluctant to install the arcade thinking it was lacking features but it seems like it works similar with other arcade brands I'm used to such as v3 and ibpro. Thanks, installed the mod.

Hello,

Need a little help please

I installed 2.0.18 on 1.1.10 tonight.

I also uploaded a bunch of game packs.

The arcade seems to work just fine. All the games i have tested play well also.

I only notice 1 problem...

for some games when you are done and hit submit nothing happens...

but for most games, like Avoider for example, when y ou are done and it goes to submit your score or whatever it is going to do when  the game ends... I get a blank white screen that says "The requested URL was not found on this server. "

I believe it has to do with my e107 bridge because the bridge changes the path and i think the arcade is tryin to go to the default location...

it tries to go to ht tp://ww w.mywebsite.com/e107_plugins/smf/index.php?action=arcade

when I believe it should be going to: ht tp://ww w.mywebsite.com/e107_plugins/smf/smf.php?action=arcade

that is if it is indeed trying to return to the arcade front page?

I c ould use any and all help please

thank you

SMF Arcade games are hard coded to submit to index.php?action=arcade, so you need to rewrite this if that url doesn't work.

ok... where and what code do I edit? which file?

[Harvester]

seems I have another problem also...

any custom member group i have created.. can not access the arcade regardless of how i set their permissions...

they all see the same thing "No games available for playing"

I have all my custom membergroups set to "view arcade" and "play on arcade" but they can not play or see any games.

ok great. ty

what about my previous question about the hard coded url? (couple posts up)

I really would like to get this to work but have no idea how to begin to fix this.

Where do I do this at?

Ive been searching every file I can think of and I cannot find where this would be changed...

help please?

[niko]

It's in each game. I meant rewrite as in using .htaccess or similar technology

[Harvester]

It's in each game. I meant rewrite as in using .htaccess or similar technology

if I cant use htaccess what other options do i have?

[Harvester]

It's in each game. I meant rewrite as in using .htaccess or similar technology

can you please tell me what I would put in the .htaccess file?

so instead of going to  ht tp://ww w.mywebsite.com/e107_plugins/smf/index.php?action=arcade

it goes to: ht tp://ww w.mywebsite.com/e107_plugins/smf/smf.php?action=arcade

Im not sure how to even begin to do this. Please help? Thank you.,

I've been looking at this mod for a while but haven't installed it. I'm concerned about the legality of many of the games in the offered gamepacks. As far as I can tell, they are filled with blatant copyright violations... I have a hard time imagining Nintendo, Atari, Konami, Sega, etc gave permissions for their ROMs to be played as free Flash games?

I searched through most of this thread and couldn't find this core issue being discussed or resolve, so I'm resorting to asking outright:

How legal can this possibly be?

First post.

[psynx]

hello,

i installed this mod manually using the parser.

im using dilber mc theme, smf 1.1.10

after installation, when i tried to open my www.forumsite.com/index.php?action=arcade i got this error

Table 'b4_3811946_55035.smf_arcade_games' doesn't exist
File: /home/vol8/byethost4.com/b4_3811946/mirc-chatters.isgreat.org/htdocs/Sources/Arcade.php
Line: 232

please help me... thank you.

Try this link, found at SMF Arcade's support site:

http://wiki.smfarcade.info/SMF_Arcade/FAQ#SMF_Database_Upgrade_Error




(You should have an upgrade.php file in your SMF 1.1.10 zip's folder.  Put it in your forum's root directory and point your browser to it.  Then you'll want to upload and run installArcade.php again to create the missing table.)


ETA:  If you get a "smiley" error while doing this, this link will be helpful:

Why not you install automatically? I think then it should t  be no eror, at least so in my case ...

[psynx]

i can't install it manually.

im using a free webhosting and there is a limit in installing packages or file size.

so instead i install mods via ftp.
