Ahh.. that was the ticket. Thanks!

psssst.... the flash/graphics link is busted

download the version in the other games thread

I know the games are free, but I just want to make sure that there is no copyright violation if we host the games on our site. I don't want to get sued by Miniclip.com for copyright infringement.

You can read the MiniClip.com Game License at any time.

Thanks, Gizzy. The information was helpful.

Hey Ian, where did you move the game download files to?

crap, she did it again, help me.. help me..

The reason you see games such as rocketman although there is no Shockwave Flash file is that there is an image file. You have to delete it as well (/ubb/games/rocketmanbigicon.gif for example). If you added an swf file but you don't see the icon, it's because you have to add a gif file with a corresponding name + "bigicon".

Also, you have to add the names of each game you add to vars_wordlets_games.cgi.
For example, for Rocket Man, add the following into vars_wordlets_games.cgi (around the middle):
For the other games, replace "rocketman" with what you see at your /games page:
$vars_wordlets_games{crash} is for "crash". Replace "Rocket Man" with the name you want the game to have.

Its exactly how I copied it out of the files

%vars_wordlets_games = (
q!crashdown! => q!Crashdown!,
q!battleships! => q!Battleships!,
q!flashman! => q!Flash Man!,
q!smashing! => q!Smashing!,
q!rocketmandemo! => q!Rocket Man!,
q!sheepish! => q!Sheepish!,
q!stressgame! => q~Stress Relief! Paintball~,
q!rigelianhotshots! => q!Rigelian Hot Shots!,
q!games_games! => q!UBB.Games!,
q!games_index! => q!Games index!,
q!games_link! => q!games!,
q!games_title! => q!Play some games.!,
q!games_courtesy! => q!Games Courtesy of!,
q!games_mod! => q!Games Mod!,
q!choose! => q!Select a game to play.!,
q!games_game! => q!Now Playing... !,
q!back_games_index! => q!Back to Games index!,

);

So I tried this and it still does not work

%vars_wordlets_games = (
q!crashdownwm! => q!Crashdown!,
q!battleships! => q!Battleships!,
q!flashmanwm! => q!Flash Man!,
q!smashing! => q!Smashing!,
q!rocketmandemo! => q!Rocket Man!,
q!sheepish! => q!Sheepish!,
q!stressgame! => q~Stress Relief! Paintball~,
q!rigelian_hotshots! => q!Rigelian Hot Shots!,
q!games_games! => q!UBB.Games!,
q!games_index! => q!Games index!,
q!games_link! => q!games!,
q!games_title! => q!Play some games.!,
q!games_courtesy! => q!Games Courtesy of!,
q!games_mod! => q!Games Mod!,
q!choose! => q!Select a game to play.!,
q!games_game! => q!Now Playing... !,
q!back_games_index! => q!Back to Games index!,

);

Then I tried this..

%vars_wordlets_games = (
"crashdownwm" => "Crashdown",
"battleships" => "Battleships",
"flashmanwm" => "Flash Man",
"smashing" => "Smashing",
"rocketmandemo" => "Rocket Man",
"sheepish" => "Sheepish",
"stressgame" => "Stress Relief! Paintball",
"rigelian_hotshots" => "Rigelian Hot Shots",
q!games_games! => q!UBB.Games!,
q!games_index! => q!Games index!,
q!games_link! => q!games!,
q!games_title! => q!Play some games.!,
q!games_courtesy! => q!Games Courtesy of!,
q!games_mod! => q!Games Mod!,
q!choose! => q!Select a game to play.!,
q!games_game! => q!Now Playing... !,
q!back_games_index! => q!Back to Games index!,

);

Still nothing

It's not "rocketmandemo", it's "rocketman"..

It seems either way I try it I can't get any of it to work, is there any way you can set it right so I can copy paste it, I'm trying really hard but its not helping at all

Alright, I tried to change the games with something else I wanted. But for some reason on the page itself it just says canon or tetris, but in the var's file.. its the right names.. I really don't get it.

change q!cannonblast! (the first one on the line) to q!cannon!

You know I just figured that out after reading the thread over and over, gods I feel as much as a dumbass as I am probably looking like to you. I got it, I'm catching on.

hehe, it takes all of us a while to catch on

Beware, I got a lot more mods I want to do mehehe

Will this work for 6.6 and is there a way to save high scores?? The highscore feature is definately needed.

no it won't, and no there isn't

UBB.Games is an excellent add-on! Thank you for your efforts. Some renaming of files, and a reflection of those changes in var_games_wordlets were needed, but apart from that, it's a VERY welcome addition to my forum.

Thanks again!

hmmm... if you are not logged in and you have it set to members-only AND you have the accelerator turned on, when you click on the ultimatebb.php?/games.html link it sends you to the forum index ( /ultimatebb.cgi?/games.html&r=gamesnoaccess ) but not to the login page... anyway to fix that? I'm not seeing it yet.

Using v2.6.1 on ubb 6.7.3

thank you

try replacing the line in ulimatebb.php
with

I never really check the parameter, back then I just wrote code to match the code already in the file

grazi, will try it
