I don't know, I don't know how this works.



For example game [url="http://www.addictinggames.com/ageofwar.html"]Age of War[/url] is compatible? If not, why?




The game has to be converted to use a scoring format that the arcade can understand. So far, we support 2 different scoring methods, with more to come soon.

Problem, I download a game from the site recommended (ipbdownload.com). The file comes as a zipper.tar file. When I unzip, all I get is a game data folder, a couple images and .php and .swf . Do I upload the zip to my FTP? Or do I unzip it and manually add these 5 components? And how do I go about doing this (like which file where) if this is the case.

For reference I downloaded this pacman game: http://www.ibpdownloads.com/ipb/index.php?autocom=arcade&do=stats&gameid=4312

don't unzip it.
Leave it zipped. The arcade installer does the unzipping.

Alright, also how do you know what this should be:

Web Location
The complete web accessable path to where your games are stored. If hosting using photobucket, use your album URL.

IE, http://www.YOURSITE.com/arcade

I currently have http://www.gamesitecenter.com/arcade

Also when I try and play a game it goes to a new screen but there's no game there, and it counts it as played: http://gamesitecenter.com/forums/index.php?app=iArcade

There's a tool at the verrryyyy top of the page that will "guess" the path for you. It should work just fine.

If not - feel free to open a ticket so I can look into it.

Also, iArcade 1.1 beta 2 was just published. Waiting for approval in the marketplace now.

As of right now, it looks like there won't be any database changes from beta to final, so users on the beta will only need to upload clean files.



If there are, I will post manual changes, but there won't be an upgrader for it.


I hate upgraders.





.DS_Store or whatever. yeah. I hate those. Lewis packed the zip, that's why.






1) You mean the one called "All Games"?


2) FURL is like,a bad word now. Lewis and I spent WEEKS building iArcade to have flawless FURL. It was so awesome. /arcade/play/snake-revenge-28 and whatnot. Everything was nice, pretty FURL.


And then.... we did v32 games. The v32 games thought that they were being played in a non-existent directory based on the FURL. Things got messed up. Theres like a 5 page thread in our staff forum of trying to fix it. I'm still looking into it, but I believe Mat and Lewis both gave up...


3) What do you guys consider "fair" for copyright removal price?


Also, it's important to note that even with copyright removal, you should not take out the "Games © their respective authors" notice.





I see , there is an update.. How should I react to?

Beta to beta? Just files to be replaced

Plz advise

Regards
Saurabh

I've been using Beta 2 on a live site with no problems. In fact, my guests LOVE it.

Things I would like to see added:

#1:
Facebook integration for high scores. <- This one will drive traffic more than anything in my opinion. Bragging rights are everything. Just a simple blurb that pops into the persons news feed that has the icon of the game, the words high score, the number, and a link directly to the game.

#2:
Some type of attention grabbing notification, maybe game most played or something that is located on the front page of the board.

#3:
This may not even be possible, but some way to use controllers with the games without having to use an external keyboard mapper. My players are a pretty hardcore bunch (I own a video game store) so this is something that they really want.
