Games...

1st - Yes This Is A PhP-Nuke site , not platinum , i have loaded the flash files into my forums/games dir. and the pics in the forums/games/pics directory , but i have no loaded all the core files i dont think , only the Arcade_TweaksRC2 thing.

2nd - this is the standard 7.9 nuke with a few mods i added such as the enhanced downloads mod , and the your_account from platinum ( i dont think they matter tho )

3rd - no , personaly i dont go with the chatserv , just not my thing i donno why , so no this is not patched

4th - No , for some very odd reason platinum brings up a page connot be displayed , not sure why may have something to do with my server bing in safemode, so no this is not a platnum install.

hopefully you can help , im at the point of giving up ( not what i want to do ) just i need to make time for other things on my site.

P.S and about that private message where you said that i should play in the arcade and make some highscores , workin on it

Ok this explains alot.

First off... I would suggest you post on the following forum:

http://www.nukearcade.com/index.php These are the guys that developed the V3 Arcade system. Read the rest of my info below and let them know all the facts about what rev and if yu need to be patched or not.

The flash files you downloaded are probably in the right place and the image files as well most likely. They are not your problem.

From our Downloads Section:
These are the core files for V3 Arcade 3.0.2 written by NukeArcade. They have not been altered and are distributed as freeware. You MUST follow the instructions to the letter for this to work properlyon your server. Requires a PHP Nuke site. This was tested on version 7.6 PNP Patched 3.1 ....

Note we have never tested this on 7.9 also if my memory serves me it will ONLY work on a Patched site. What I would do is register over at NukeArcade and post a question about support on 7.9 unpatched.

Don't be surprised if you don't get a rash of warnings about running your site without the patches. Even 7.9 is loaded with some security holes.
See http://www.nukescripts.net/ you can find the right patch upgrade for 7.9 over there if the folks at NukeArcade indicate you will need it. I suspect yes. That is why you are getting BLANK pages. The SQL insertion security protection routines are different as well as some of the ADMIN security code and other stuff between patched and un patched sites. So on an unpatched installation you WILL get all sorts of errors.

You will find that MOST adds on for the standard PHP platform are written for "patched" versions and reverse compatable.

First go to Nuke Arcade and see what they say about 7.9 unpatched. Then you may find you want to go over to NukeScripts and load the patches for 7.9 patch 3.1 but be sure that is the rev patch that will work with the V3 Arcade first! If all this sounds like too much... just come here and play flash games !!!

Hope this helps you. Good Luck. Make sure you follow all directions to the tee and BACK UP both your database and your current files before you start patching !!! You'll thank me if something goes wrong.

Oh... one other thing.....

Can you tell me, did you finally download the files from the Downloads Module on this site, from another site, or directly from the directory path on our server? Nuke sites are plagued with security issues and I don't need any more of those. I would like to know how you found the direct URL to the file. Was it in the course of the 403 error message you received yesterday? Thanks.... it will help us beef up security.

Please post your RESPONSE IN A PRIVATE MESSAGE.... thanks.

Google around and you may find some. Check the Nuke Arcade site I gave you and ask there. Those folks are just into Arcade and focus on flash game support. Also ... you might want to download Imagination Nuke and check in their Arcade package. Don't load the php files or you will have a mess on your hands. Open thier zip and look for the games. I think they had it in a separate folder zipped. However it has been awhile and I think they might be on a new version of their software.

Here is the link: http://www.imagination-nuke.com/

Also... check with NukeArcade and ask in a post there first.

Cheers.... and glad you got it working ok.... Stop by from time to time. We are adding a few more forums and may need some folks to help out the newbies. Scotty and I can't cover 24 x 7
