UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 6 V6 Modifications V6 Mod Ideas Games - but with a twist

I'm terribly sorry for my newbieness (is that a word?!) but I would like to know if any of you know of a mod that allows registered members to play games BUT also tracks their scores/points/whatever? I *love* the idea of allowing my members to play games but I think allowing their scores to be tracked would be fantastic and could allow for things like contests for prizes for first place, etc.

Anyone know of a current mod that allows this?

(And sorry if I'm posting in the wrong forum. This seemed like the best pick to post something like this.)

not for threads, but if you go to www.trackpads.com (vb) and look at their arcade gallery they have something exactly like that.

I must say that it is VERY awesome!

actually it's not the threads/vb it's the game itself if you can find a game that outputs it's high scores locally to the server in a .txt or other readable format you can take the game arcade and alter it. I have been looking for games that do just that. thats how they do this.

actually all ya have to do is convert the v3 Arcade v1.0.2 over from vb to threads and then hack the games providing you have the original fla's to output the high scoores to a table

The games come with a php script which is called upon through the hard coding of the swf file, which has been decompiled into an fla and modified by the developer (or hacker) then recompiled again. The php script itself is integrated heavily into the board which requires a lot of files to be modified. This was a major undertaking with a lot of testing in VB.

Bah I looked at the files I could do it. If I could adapt from XMB, I can adapt and overcomes.

True, you are great with that stuff, no question there. I was just relaying what I have seen from it is all

Eric and I wait with baited anticipation

its basically finished and can be seen at www.couch-tomatoe.cc

Looking good! I beat the record on snake! Not that it was hard... =]

there shall soon be another 200 games in there...

awesome! You are da man!

Very cool scroungr. So are you utilizing the current code written into the swf's or will they all need to be re-written and recompiled for threads?

using the existing code built into the swf's by the vb people. I rewrote the code to be threads friendly.

200 more. /drooling/

The entire page is full of the_wangs wins

Yeah threadsdev has sure been playing on my site alot..

We're beta testing for the good of the community. Yeah, that's it

Scroungr, are you posting or selling this modification for the use of others?

I haven't decided yet But I will post hopefully by end of week. I am currently closing on a house and in the process of moving.

only problem with charging for this hack is that I would be expected to support it
