hey skull, i got mine to work too, i ended up redoing the whole site also

but i think you took the better route by using Telli's stuff, i ended up trying to make heads or tails outta all those posts at ported mods on the subject. i used parts of an sql, from one zip, and parts of another sql from another...........uuughh!!, all in all i got it to the same point your at. it wont record some high scores, and some redirection issues after a game.

Also, applause to codezwiz for having better support for the stuff they publish. I'll take a peek at your site skull, maybe we can share ideas.

Sorry guys I wish I could offer support on everything out there but I would run out of time. Have you cleared up the issue with the scores not saving yet?

i got a couple games that record scores, but most dont, it may be a matter of findiing games that work. i noticed on skullcramps site, it would not submit the score. the way mine has been going it either submits the score or i just get an error, on some games.

No sweat Telli! You da bom. The service you provide here at Codewiz is way beyond the price we have to pay for it

Besides, It's good for us to dig in and figure it out. I learned a lot with this little project. Once thing that would help is a list of what version the games are in your download. What version, or type would even be better, and score variable name each game has to be configured to.Better yet, how to decompile the game, and find the info myself. Is there a way to figure it out?

Hey Red, I'm a team player, I'm all for sharing ideas. What's your address, I'll check out your goods?

Its all in that sql file I posted on the prior page. Most are scorevariable and type 0.

Telli, sorry the Arcade Installation 2.0.2.txt (copy below) file in your download through me off. I'm sure you know you have to add each of the games in the download you now have posted manually? There not included in the sql file. When you add them manually you have to configure each game that comes with the download. The instuctions say the scorevariable is the file name. I'm a newb, so I got a little confused, I hope this post will help those who are a little green like meself

Anyways, I changed all the games to scorevariable and type 0, and still none of the games record highscores. At the end of each game everything freezes up. No redirection, no errror. It just freezes. Any Ideas?

I am getting the same problem as Skullcramp. Once the games are over nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this? Everything else works perfect until the games end.

Any help would be appreciated. I would really like to get this working. Telli please help.

Type 0 games work, the problems seems to be with type 3 games. I have attached a type 0 games that works and has the sql to import the game.

Now we just need to find out why type 3 games will not work.
