Thanks for the reply.

How about this one ¿how does the leaderborad exactly works? ¿can i create game contests? ¿how?

Right now, the leaderboard works by making a giant SQL query that builds the leaderboard and stores it in cache. You set how long that cache lasts for in the config area. You get 20 points for 1st place, 19 points for 2nd place, etc.

Game contests have been disabled for this release, since they weren't quite ready. They will be back very soon.

So...if I install the arcade and play the pacman and the snake, in the leaderboard should be displayed my 2 scores? because i dont see any.

Ahh, no, thats not how it works. The leaderboard compiles scores from all the games. Then, it gives you a point value based on your position in each game. So, if you get 1st place, you get 20 points, if you get 2nd place, you get 19 points. Then, it adds all these together to give you one overall score for the whole arcade. This number is compared against others, to give a kind of "best of the whole arcade" type score.

If you have some scores, you should at least see yourself on the leaderbord. If you aren't, read up in the thread where Adroussel and I were troubleshooting his leaderboard. You are probably having the same problem.

I'm not using 'Show Game Selections on Folder' but when I'm in a folder, for ex 'sports' I can not use the page navigation:

<< Start < Prev 1 2 Next > End >>

"2", "next" & "End" links all send me to :
www.domain.com/index.php?limitstart=100?limitstart=100

Instead of something like this:
index.php?option=com_puarcade&fid=4&limitstart=100

(I'm dispalying 100 games in a page caus I can not view next pages... ;/)

Does this happen in all the folders? This issue doesn't occur in my 1.5 test environment.

I've updated to the latest svn again (Reinstall). Is it normal that i have to install the shoutbox and uddeplugin again ? The Files are in the plugin folder, but under plgins in backend the bots away, so they doesn't work anymore.

Yes, this is normal. The uninstaller removes all the plugins.

Ok I found out!
I'm using Sh404 SEF on my content articles and on CB to get urls like:
www.mydomain.com/username to link to user's scores&profile.

I disabled it on puarcade component, but I have to disable it totally if I don't want it to mess the folder navgation urls like:
index.php?limitstart=100?limitstart=100

So I have to disable completely SH404SEF to fix this issue...
any work around? I need this SEF



The alternative for those wanting to use SH404SEF without a fix for this bug, would be to be able in the admin to set the number of games in one page with a text field and not a selectdrop down( in some folders I have more than 100 games)...

Maybe would be goo to point this to the sh404SEF developers, is the best SEF ever, and has a lot of supported jomla addons, so maybe they will help!

I´m experiencing some layout issues when playing the games, no matter the dimmensions of the game
joomla 1.5.6 SVN
template jaPurity and beez
puArcade SVN 358

Also a little question...

Will puarcade be joomla 1.5 native sometime?

What are the issues you are experiencing?

Yep, PUArcade will eventually be native. Depending on timing, this upcoming release may be the last one that supports Joomla 1.0

Please wait at least till you get a working contests system before you stop supporting 1.0. I've got a site that has been heavily modded and can't move onto joomla's 1.5 platform.

I hear you. I think a lot of people will be in that same boat for a while (myself included).

This happens using
joomla 1.5.6 SVN after applying the patch to correct column count on articles joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker...racker_item_id=10691
template jaPurity, beez and milkway
puArcade SVN 358

Also happens in a minor way using
joomla 1.5.6 SVN without applying any patch


I think that the new addition of the DIV layout styles in puArcade are causing thoose glitches...
