Couple of problems with this release, I've noticed so far. Running on SMF 2.0.15 locally in Xampp.
The comments you enter aren't saved when you finish a game. But if you click the edit icon on the comment you can enter the comment and it saves.
Images are missing from the arcade stats page. same as here, https://www.docskillz.com/docs/index.php?action=arcade;sa=stats and here, https://web-develop.ca/index.php?action=arcade;sa=stats
EDIT: And some errors in log,

Thanks, for the update, Mick.
You're welcome. Also reported these issues on the GitHub repo.
The 2 installation errors were due to the html5 pacman game installation from one of the html5 gamepacks.
It is an issue with the arcade installer itself which I just fixed locally but haven't updated GitHub or my site yet.
It was due to duplicate internal names (swf pacman with the same internal name).
Prior to updating I will have to fix the other errors you just reported.
Comments are working for me with v1 and html5 games.
I will attempt to find the specific game you were playing in your image and test it.
Does this occur for all your games?

Seems to happen with all the games I've played so far. This game on your site for example https://web-develop.ca/index.php?index.php;action=arcade;sa=play;game=180
I left a comment on the scores, but as you can see they are not there, The image attached is me adding a comment, and clicking the save button to the right of it.
I just realized that this site has not been updated to the latest version of the arcade and may be why you do not see the images in the admin, etc....not sure tho... Same goes for OFF. The versions installed at both sites are the RC5 version not 2.55. I haven't gotten around to installing them yet.
Steve, I'm testing the one from the download link you posted in the first post, those images are missing in that one. I think by the looks of it Chen Zhen has fixed those images now on his site, https://web-develop.ca/index.php?action=arcade;sa=stats
Actually looking at the installer it appears the missing image is there for uninstall, but not for install.
Themes/default/images/arc_icons/gold.gif
Yeah, I know. Just saying cause I've just realize that I've never upgraded. Been pretty busy lately. But now the dust has settled I can get back to things.
The installer uses the entire arc_icons folder but for the uninstall it opts specific default files.
This is because people have the option to add their own icons/images that they may want to keep including ones added by uploading category icons.
The issue was not because of a missing image file but was due to me changing the file path location and neglecting to update the stats template.
It has been fixed now as well as some other issues.
Comments are working for me.
What browser are you using?
Perhaps it is browser specific but I would like to know so I can resolve the problem.
Btw, in the arcade footer it says RC5 but in Packages it says 2.55 which confused me into thinking the older version was still installed here. You will soon have to change the copyright date as well.
EDIT: The arcade has been updated here to the latest github version.

Looks like those images for the stats page are there now. Have you got the comments turned off in the arcade though, there doesn't seem to be a way to leave or edit a comment atm.
Try it now. It comments worked for me but there isn't a setting just for enable/disable comments. But there is one for editing them and I've enable it.

OK, so they are active for me again now, so looks like the setting for the edit comments turns them on and off. Comments still not saving for me though.

Tried in Edge and IE11 haven't tried the others yet. This game for example, https://www.docskillz.com/docs/index.php?action=arcade;sa=play;game=54
When I click send score, it saves the score and gives me a box to leave a comment in. Clicking save the page refreshes the page getting rid of the comment input box as expected, but as you can see there is no comments against my scores.
It works in chrome.
Confirmed! Comments do not work in Edge.
Thanks for confirming that Steve. ;)
Now another problem I've noticed, the category icons. Uploaded a gif for each of my cats, and they uploaded and show on the arcade admin page ok. But viewing the categories in the arcade they don't show. file name get changed somehow from Defence_Games to Defence_Games.gif.gif
or another example, see screenshots, 1st one shows the image in arcade admin. Second one shows missing image, and properties showing the double gif on the end of the file name.
Looks like a coding issue of sorts.

Chen Zhen, I noticed you added some more fixes over at the GitHub repo a few hours ago, https://github.com/Underdog-01/SMF-Arcade-RC5/commit/84a9f5941a38bb5d0d9cd0a3e91b41234ed264bd
now running this on my test site. http://cctestsite.info/forums/index.php?action=arcade Category images are now working. Comments are still not saving in IE11 but not sure if you've tried fixing that yet.
Apart from that all looking good atm. Thank you.
OK, a new issue since those fixes were applied.
Look at a score and just clicking the edit comment button now generates a error in the log. Also clicking the save button no longer does anything.

There isn't a string or array key named comment from the file/line you just referenced.
Anyhow the comment issue should be fixed now.
Ideally this should be tested on: IE 11, MS Edge, Firefox, Opera, Chrome & Safari.
Those are the leading browsers where javascript behavior can differ.
I only tested this on Ms Edge & Firefox thus far and it seems to be working.
For the moment, I was not able to duplicate the errors you reported.
If they still occur after applying the newer package, please quote the exact error & report it.
Thanks.
I should have noticed that but have been running back and forth since last night. I don't see "comment" anywhere in the file I have except for "commentform3". Me thinks there's a conflict with another mod, perhaps?
Btw, do you know what game was being played when you got the error?

Not sure myself, but whatever Chen Zhen fixed in the last few hours seems to have sorted it, I'm running the latest repo version last updated 3 hours ago. https://github.com/Underdog-01/SMF-Arcade-RC5/commits/master
I can attach it here if you like?
Sure, if you want. I had planned on doing it after most of the bugs were sorted but atm, I'm baking Mint Brownie Bars. LOL

OK, I'll attach it to this post, and you can move it to where you want it. All packaged up and ready to install, with all GitHub stuff removed as normal. :cheers:

No I haven't Steve, where can I find them? The only ones I've tested are ones that I have on CC, and by the way they are all downloadable from my arcade if there's any you want. :cheers:
Sorry, batteries in my mouse died. LOL Some are installed here. I've made you admin in case there were permission issues so you can download them:

Tried a html5 one, it uploaded but took a while, quite big by the look of it. Then got a error when going to manage Installations,

Looks like either the code doesn't allow for the size and/or your hosting doesn't allow for it. You may be able to create a php.ini file and adjust it if your hosting will allow you to do it.

Thanks. Yep need to look into this, it's the first time I've seen this error since moving to new host, so all new to me atm. Meanwhile I'll see if I can find a smaller one. And to be honest not sure I'm looking at the right sort of game for the arcade, lol..
You can create a phpini.info file to see what your hosting has set for you:
http://support.hostgator.com/articles/phpinfo
That should be allowed even in they do not allow you to use a custom php.ini file. Here's a little more info:

You'll have to download it anew again as I just applied the same comment fix to popups which I previously forgot to do.
Are you able to apply the same tests to popups?

Seems fine so far. Here's the new zip ready to go again. :cheers:
When you find HTML5 games that you want adjusted to work with the arcade you will have to either apply the appropriate save fix yourself or create a request thread on my forum.
Games will likely need some other subtle adjustments to function properly and to secure their installation.
ie. adding the appropriate index.php file(s) to protect directories, changing the main index.html to gamename.html and possibly adjusting files that reference the index.html file.

You need to opt html5 uploading in the arcade settings.
It uses a method that breaks files down into chunks which allows large file uploads.
Go to: Admin -> Arcade -> Arcade Settings
.. and check-mark the box that says "Use HTML5 Upload Script" then save the settings.
Try uploading a game archive after making that change.

I have a question abut the html5 gamepacks. I don't usually upload gamepacks and normally opt for just installing the games I want. But for the purpose of testing the arcade I installed gamepacks 24 / 25. Some of the games worked, and some didn't can't remember which ones and will have to install again to find out. There was a couple more that I decided to uninstall for testing this routine.
I noticed that when I uninstalled one game, some of the others stopped working. Is this normal behavior when working with gamepacks ?
No it is not.
I am able to install all games without one affecting another.
Thanks. It was more a case of un-installing one or more games that caused problems with others in the game packs.
So you are reporting that uninstalling multiple games is not working correctly?
Quote from: Chen Zhen on January 02, 2018, 09:42:47 PM
So you are reporting that uninstalling multiple games is not working correctly?
Chen Zhen I will have to test this again when I get back from work, but what I found was, just uninstalling one single game from a game pack caused problems with the remaining games in the pack.
Scenario: I installed game pack 24 - 25 then then found one or two that either didn't work, or I just didn't want. So went to manage games where all the games from those packs are listed separately as expected. Ticked box on one of the games and clicked uninstall selected game. That's when I noticed some of the other html5 games from the packs stopped working.
OK. Gave it another test. This time installed just game pack 24
1: Uploaded gamepack 24
2: Went to manage installations and ticked the box for each game in the pack and clicked install selected.
3: Tested each game, they all worked except one = Raging Gardens
4: Uninstalled the Raging Gardens game (only).
5: If you look at the screenshot below, you'll see it's removed the thumbs etc from the other games in that pack. The other games from that pack no longer work.
Sorry guys! Been very busy with the holidays and birthdays and all...
EDIT: I installed a new test forum and installed gamepack 23. Raging Gardens does work for me but does not save scores nor allows you to view highscores after playing from within the game.
And yes, the images are missing from the other games after uninstalling it. Btw, I was using Chrome.
EDIT 2: I then deleted everything and started over. This time I installed Gamepack 25. Since Raging Gardens was the last game of Gamepack 23, I wondered if the last game in the pack was the one causing problems. So, I immediately went to the last game of the gamepack (25) which was Pacman and played it. It did not save a score and gave this error:
"Score was not saved because session is missing"
I uninstalled it and, again, the images were missing from the other games!
I will have to work on these later in the week or possibly weekend.
The games are saving score but show the error.
Perhaps it is related to the most recent changes I made because it was working previously.
Ok, if you uninstall any game the icons will be missing. I started anew with a fresh SMF install and uninstalled a different game and the same happened. The game did save the score, saved the comment and also allowed me to edit the comment.

Steve, as mentioned above when I uninstalled one of the games, not only did the game thumbs go missing but the other games in the pack stopped working. Is this not the case for you? Your other games from that pack continued to work? Note: I was testing gamepack 24
Yes, the all games are no longer working. Furthermore, all of the files for all games are deleted but not the directories! I've just checked wondering if any of the files were removed. If you go into "Edit Games" in the admin you'll see "Main File Missing" in red under each game. It appears that the code to remove one game removes them all, perhaps?
EDIT: I just uploaded the games again (except for the one I uninstalled) just to see if more was wrong with it but they all work again. So, it seems all of the files are deleted when you uninstall one of the games.

Just a quick question. Am I right in saying the arcade doesn't have a responsive layout? Or is this built into one of the alternate themes?
Good question! I can't remember testing that but will.
EDIT: Not sure if it's responsive or not but all themes seem to work well on my cell and tablets.

Thanks Steve. My Firefox updated and I'm now having problems with the responsive design mode. I'll check again when it starts working again, which hopefully it will.
It because of the fixes for Meltdown and Spectre. They kind of mess with the developer mode, atm.

Probably, either through upgrades/fixes and/or people trying to figure out the exploits. Might be best to wait for the dust to settle...

I think he means does it adapt to screen widths.
ie.
The normal format for the vintage list is 4 cells wide.
With a responsive design it might change to 2 cells wide for a tablet or perhaps 1 cell wide for a cell phone.
This way the text and icons can remain a large enough size to be easily seen without squinting to see something reduced too small or scrolling if magnified.
No this design concept is not currently used within the templates & css of the arcade.
However at this time few of the available HTML5 games will work with touch screen controls and most of the games are adobe flash format.
Most mobile devices using main stream browsers do not have flash plugins installed by default mostly due to that process using a lot of battery power quite quickly.
There are less popular browsers that do use it (Imo to draw a user base of people that want/need that feature) and/or 3rd party plugins for mainstream browsers but they are not recommended due to what was just mentioned.
If we are able to introduce many newer HTML5 type games to the arcade that work well on mobile devices (touch screen control) then this would be a good to add.

Thanks, that was exactly what I was asking. ;) I'll check out those alternate theme settings once I get on to my other PC.
Just had a quick go on pacman, I only played it once, but this image says different. ;)
Also it froze my IE11 after leaving the game on the page for a minute or two.
I am working on it with a live test on this site.
Locally it works for me but not live.

Did you have a look at the above?
The issue regarding uninstalling games that are within a gamepack folder tree should now be resolved.
Please test the new package from my website download section.
Any other reported issues plus some things I noticed myself are still pending at this time.
The save score issue may be game related or possibly a combo of something in a game & the arcade not checking something.
I just tried papu pakiar & html5 tetris without any issue saving score, however html5 pacman gets caught in a loop.
Something I will mess with this week.

Thank you. I'm assuming you mean download the new arcade package, and not the game pack from your site downloads? I don't see any version changes, so never sure if I have the latest. I would normally pick up the latest git repo for testing, hence my question.
I will give it a test tonight.
Mick, I believe he means the arcade mod. I just checked Github and can see fixes for the uninstalling of gamepacks 7-10 hours ago. But the dates for the arcade and the gamepacks have not changed on his site...
EDIT: Just installed the Github version and installed the gamepacks I already had and the uninstalling of games works now. Also, Pacman did not freeze on me (using Chrome) and only displayed one highscore.
EDIT #2: I uninstalled Pacman and tried to install it again by uploading the gamepack but got an error stating the gamepack folder was already there. I deleted the folder and the game files within and reinstalled the gamepack. I could play the game but got 2 highscores for the played game this time...using Chrome. Then I noticed that it had installed Pacman twice! LOL

Thanks. So to be sure of the latest, grab it from the git repo as I've been doing.
Using latest repo, and all good so far. Uninstalled one game and all others remained working. Tried to break it but it's holding up well. http://cctestsite.info/forums/index.php?action=arcade
Only one problem with the raging gardens game. wouldn't work in IE11 but does in other browsers. Apart from that the arcade itself looks pretty solid. Nice job.
I'm hoping to soon upgrade my main arcade from SMF Arcade 2.5 RC2 to this new version when it's ready. Not sure how that will go.
It should go fine as long as you uninstall plus delete the old version first and then upload plus install the newer version.
I still need to do some minor template adjustments that I noticed.
Raging Gardens sounds like an issue with the game itself and is likely not directly related to the Arcade coding.
I will look into Raging Gardens after I complete the template fixes.
Thank you.
Thanks for info. You mean just uninstall old arcade, delete package from package manager and upload and install new version?
I seem to remember years ago when upgrading the arcade I had to clean up my database a bit to get the new one to install, I'm hoping this one won't require this, and should pick up all my games as installed.
I won't be doing this upgrade for a while, as it will probably involve a complete rebuild. lol..
Mick, you don't have to delete the db, just the old one from Packages. We haven't had to do that in ages.

Sorry for late reply. Been trying to get my head around that really annoying Tinyportal bug, to no avail I might add. Going to have to find someone to help me with this, but that's near on impossible these days.
Thanks for the tips regarding upgrading the arcade, yep I would have probably done it that way, just wanted to make sure. ;)
There are still issues with saving games using Chrome.
I will be looking into this possibly on the weekend.
Thanks for the update. :)
I changed the pacman game to another HTML5 version that may work for mobile as well (I haven't tested it yet).
I couldn't get the other one to work properly plus the game was not complete anyhow.
Please test out the newer one in the arcade & let me know if it works properly.
I will be fixing Raging Gardens some time this week.
Tetris is also fixed on my site so it does not move the screen when using the arrow keys.
Also let me know if there are problems with any other games whether it be saving score or something else.
Thanks.
Seems to work well except I got an error in the logs related to the highscores.

Glad you noticed this one, I forgot to mention it. Thank you.
That error has something to do with xml output and no given game id within the url.
I will look into what caused it to use that url without the game id.
Also there is an issue if the score trigger takes longer than 2 seconds because of my score loop check where it will not save the score.
I will have to adjust that subroutine.
Ok, thanks.
If ya got any questions, don't be afraid to ask. :majornerd: I don't know any thing about it. :groan: A course you already knew that :rofl1:
:taz:
LOL!
Here is what I got
Installed version: 2.5 RC5
Latest version: 2.56.10 -> Update needed (https://web-develop.ca/index.php?action=downloads;area=stable_smf_arcade;file=1)
I clicked and downloaded this
Now do I just open, and try to install over my old one? Or what? will I lose all my games I have installed?
:taz:
It should upgrade the old one. But no matter what you do you won't lose your games unless you manually delete the game files of the database. You'll still have your games. :)
It is done, and no trouble at all doing it. Thank you for the advise. I always like to check with you before deleting my whole board as I have in the past. :hah: :rofl1: :blush:
:taz:
I've done it a few times myself! LOL

It should go fine as long as you uninstall plus delete the old version first and then upload plus install the newer version.
I still need to do some minor template adjustments that I noticed.
Today I bit the bullet and tried upgrading my arcade. Didn't quite go as well as I'd hoped.
Uninstalled: Skin/PDL for Arcade RC2 and then SMF Arcade 2.5
Then installed: SMF Arcade 2.56.11
All went well and no install errors, visited arcade and even played a game. Thought I'd try and switch to a different layout for the games. Think I changed the "Select List Type" but can't remember what to. Anyway on going back to the arcade the Games are not displayed, just a game search. And where they should be showing it says "No games available for playing" Can't get the list of games to display at all, but can play them if I search.
Hi Mick. Did you get the download from here or Chen's site? I haven't upgraded to the latest in the downloads here just yet. Going to do that now.
Hi mate. I got from Chen's site, but think it's sorted now, I believe he replicated the issue and fixed it in the new beta which I'm testing now. Seems fine apart from a couple of missing images. Still testing atm, and trying to upgrade all sites ready to increase my php version. I'm still on 5.6 :whistle:
