Their maybe a simpler way but head into MySQL and find the games table.  Probably called whatever your board name is, i.e. boardname_games_catagory.  But it will be misspelled catergory or whatever it was.

Click the button on that line called "Structure".

Then on top, click the "operations" link.

Find the label named Rename table to:

and enter the name you need.  Then click GO.

It's what worked in my case.

^ omg that worked thank you for going step by step for me!!  ty ty !

Where did it get this path from:

http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/4396/nopicshow0hw.jpg

The jpg or gif for the game should be in the same folder your games are stored.  If there is another path to get there, someone will correct me shortly.

In your admin window, head into Arcade/ Arcade Settings
On the path information, it should look like:
Games Directory: (Path) /Games
Games Directory (URL): http://domainname.com/foldername/Games

Also, in order for someone other than the admin to play, from admin panel
Head into: Edit Permissions
Then: Permissions by Membergroup
Then: Modify link for the specific group you need to have permissions to use it.  i.e. Noobs, full member or whatever your ranking list says.

Find the games permissions and change it from X to A to allow users to see and play.  You'll figure it out when you see it.

thanks for replying Jazhawk! actually, that's the problem that i'm getting with line 955....when i go to edit permissions....line 955.....guess i messed up my ManagePermissions.php  and hmm....i did make sure all paths were the same....i downloaded the package 0 from smfgames a while back....maybe i should see if i can uninstall and start all over? new package..upload new files?

[Jazhawk]

Either method of recovery would work I suppose.   I've boogered up SMF a few times before it made sense to me.

if you check out the FAQ at smfgames .com you'll find a managepermissions.php already modified.If you use that copy the error should go away.You shouldn't have to uninstall it.If you're still having problems post a link to your site and I'll try to help.

just news//// what can i do... any comments?

[mlrocks1]

i mean how can i enable it... help pleasee

[tentronik]

Try changing to default theme IF your install procedure gave you successful checks during install (Check your mod installed files from the package manager).
If you encountered failed install infos on diffrent files you need to add the modifications manually(search this topic - basicly all is said here).

Also to enable ARCADE you need to enable the mod from the mod admin and from permissions - from the main forum admin.
If this is not possible the mod isn`t complete installed yet.

[niko]

There is also problems in 1.1b3 packgage manager... it says all succesful... but it in reality it did nothing...
this problem at least on my testing server and avatar upload not working neither attachment gets thumbnails...
its still very buggy.

if you wonder why domain doesnt work it did expire and i cant renew it...

Ok maybe dumb question but gotta ask.. can flash games that run from vbulletin, can they run in SMF arcade? or how to make them work with smf, like scoring  and stuff.

[johnm]

they either need to be converted or you need to write a script to pass the info to the arcade mod
