Have you fixed this yet?It sounds like you need to create the game table.Sometimes  that happens and you have to make one thru myphpadmin.One more thing did you install while using the default theme?

I hate to say it but it looks like you created a mess by choosing to import games and highscores that didn't exist.I'd say uninstall everything pretaining to the arcade including any database tables it might have created and start from scratch.Then install it again.Once you install it run the installArcade.php and choose new install and you should good togo from that point.Also you should clickon the linkin my sig and go there.We can and will give you alot more support and you might find the answer to your ?'s already posted.I think alot of people don't know that we have a site and staff dedicated to this mod.

@MySQASI: You got a reply right below your post there. Also, try getting the more updated version due to a security issue found. Get updated arcade mod here.

@vanstygma: Do you use the default SMF theme or a custom one? You might also need to get the language file for your forum if it's not using English.

Hi all

Currently only admins can play the arcade, i wondered why only 3 of us had posted scores , i have gone through settings but dont see where i need to change to all allow guests or normal forum members to play as well, can you help me please

[greyknight17]

Did you check the Admin->Permissions settings? There should be a section called Arcade in there.

[dakotaroar]

Is there a way to post the X most recent scores and comments somewhere else in the forum (e.g., index page)?

Like greyknight17 said.Check admin>arcade settings>permissions>switch to none.As well check your membergroup permissions.

click on the link in my sig.Check out the hacks board and look for the scrolling champ block.If you're using TinyPortal add it to a php block.

I see no arcade administration in the admin panel, nor an arcade menu button

[Bigguy]

Are you using a custom theme. If so this is why. Mods only install to the default theme. You have to manually add the code to custom themes.

For the arcadeadmin try this.Server settings>default forum language>if its english-utf8 switch to english.For the arcade button you'll have to edit the index.template.php and create a arcade button for the theme.

[ShadowStriker]

I have default theme, oh an whats the differenc between english-utf8 and english?

[ShadowStriker]

Actually the button came by itself. I think you solved the answer to all my problems . I've been having trouble with most mods even on default but now cause I changed the forum language from englsh utf8 to english, now the mods actually work! Thank you!

[rider]

Gald to help.The other option is to take a copy of the langauge file and add -utf8 to the end of it.Then most of the mods will work for either version.

[ShadowStriker]

now it doesnt work anymore

[rider]

now it doesnt work anymore

When you switched it,you click save right?Somebody else had this problem but they never posted back if they fixed it or not.You can try this. once you made the change and click save make your settings.php unwriteable.That should stop it from changing back.
