SMF Arcade

[oldmanwolf]

Well, a couple things...  I keep getting errors in my log when guests try to go to the arcade..

8: Undefined index: cannot_play_arcade
File: /home/www/animalrescuecooperation.org/forum/Sources/Security.php
Line: 683

There's other errors, but I can't find them - I had to empty my log since the SMF-Mambo bridge is filling it up with errors too...

Plus my set member permissions page is a little messed up - I have the settings but not the words for the challenges part, and the lines under that are no longer lined up right... 

The challenges thing doesn't seem to work right, so I've got it disabled right now...

Using SMF 1.0.5 and Arcade 1.1.3

[greyknight17]

Yay, someone's here to help 

I'm having problems installing the MOD on SMF 1.1 beta 3.  It gives me this failure:

3.     Execute Modification     Sources/Subs.php     Test failed

so I just stopped installation.  I have tried suggestions from others, like looking for this line:

if (allowedTo('manage_smileys'))
  $context['admin_areas']['config']['areas']['manage_smileys'] = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=smileys">' . $txt['smileys_manage'] . '</a>';

and adding this after it:

if (allowedTo('admin_arcade'))
  $context['admin_areas']['config']['areas']['admin_arcade'] = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=arcadeadmin">' . $txt['admin_arcade'] . '</a>';

It will show me the Arcade button.  But when I run arcade_sql.php or just click on that Arcade link, it will give me a database error (don't have it written down - but I think error 87?).

I tried to do a clean install (no MODS, started SMF from scratch) of Arcade 1.1.3 on SMF 1.1 but it still won't work.  I tried the newest version but it's said that it's not stable on SMF 1.1.

I have high scores that I want to save and move over to this newer version.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Is there a version for 1.1 beta 3p SMF?
I found out the arcade1.1.3 version is compatible but didnt find all files to install.
Anyone has managed to install 1.1. beta 3p yet?
Also there is a file called 1.2.1 which is beside uisng same version numbers as SMF a little confusing.

Code Select Expand

1.  Execute Modification  index.php  Test failed
2. Execute Modification Themes/default/index.template.php File not found
3. Execute Modification Sources/Subs.php File not found
4. Execute Modification Sources/ManagePermissions.php File not found
5. Execute Modification Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php File not found
6. Execute Modification Themes/default/Display.template.php File not found
7. Execute Modification Sources/Display.php File not found

[tentronik]

Ok i saw the MOD works with 1.1 beta 3p - anyone has a clue why i get a file not found on the 1st 7 files when i try to install version 1.1.3?

[oldmanwolf]

It might be easier for you to do a manual install...  There's a lot of quirks with doing this, though..  I think the arcade 1.2.1 works with 1.1 B3...  Just a thought...

[tentronik]

Install of 1.2.1 works with 1.1 b3p clean install and if you run afterwards the arcade_sql.php from the forum root folder.

There is still a flaw with the memberid i saw in the error log.
But the mod works basicly!

Example: robot invasion beta some mod game

The memberid issue was answered a couple pages back...  change [id] to ['id'] or something similar...

[niko]

Damn how hard its to run arcade_sql.php ... maybe i need to automate it :p

1.2.2 added

[Champi]

Ho, ho... lets solve the problems.. people have spend hours to make this arcade mod.. complaining has no use..

with 1.2.2. all score issues solved niko, also those with the reverse highscores..?

[demon1975]

hmm everything seemed to install ok and work with one minor exception... now it tells me Games directory is invalid

[AlexHobbs]

In the older versions of the arcade, this was a problem - even if you added the right path it will say invalid and you can't install games, what is happening is the ArcadeAdmin.template.php is a different version to the whole Arcade - make sure all files are the same version

[demon1975]

I got the directory situation handled but the heck is this all about? :

An Error Has Occurred!

Demon,

You need to add some values in arcade settings. I had the same problem.

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=29619.1167 and the follwing post.

I've said this before, and I'll say it again: this is a wonderful mod, seriously let down by the lack of documentation. - Please can the opening post to this thread be edited to include a tutorial, and be updated with present issues, and how they might be resolved.

The above problem, and an explanation that that the file (that I've forgotten the name of) that has to be executed to start the mod. - Things like this should be explained at the beginning.

Thanks.
