vB Flash Player 1.3 - Play Any Flash Game or Movie in vB!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: This used to be my vB Tetris 1.2 hack. It's been improved to play any Flash game or movie.

Purpose:
------------------

Install this hack ONCE and you can play any SWF game or movie totally integrated inside your forum! The name of the game or movie will be automatically shown in the page title, forum nav bar, and table heading! Just upload the SWF file to your forums directory and then use this URL (changing it to suit your forum directory):

http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

You can even set the width and height or background color of the Flash movie or game using the URL command line and parameters.

http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename&w=1024&h=768&b=000000

Good for those of you who run your site at HIGH resolutions. If you don't enter the width or height parameters, the Flash game or movie will automatically default to 600 x 400. If you don't enter the background color, it will default to your forum page background color. Only registered members will be able to play the game or movie - unregistered users will get the "no permission" log-in page.

Installation
-----------------------

EASY! Takes 1 minute. All you need to do is create 2 templates, and upload 1 file, and you're done. (No db queries to run, no php file edits! )

1) Create 2 templates with the text files included - just copy the contents of the text files into the templates with the same name:
flash
error_flash
2) Upload flash.php into your forum directory. The hack is finished!

Then, to play any Flash SWF Game or Movie inside your forum:
1) Upload the SWF file to your forum directory.
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)


Parameters:
--------------------

play = name of SWF file (without the .swf extension - make sure the capitals and small letters are the same!)
w = width of Flash movie or game
h = height of Flash movie or game
b = background color of Flash movie or game (in hex WITHOUT the # - eg. 000000 for black or FFFFFF for white)


To use default width and height is 600 x 400, or default background color which is your forum background color -
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename
"filename" being the name of the SWF file (without the .SWF) - the name must be exact (including the capitals or small letters)

To set your own width or height:
http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=filename&w=1024&h=768&b=000000


Tetris
-----------

For example, with this hack I've included the Tetris SWF file that was included in my original tetris hack. This game is public domain. To let your members play good old-fashioned Tetris on your forums:

1) Upload tetris.swf to your forums directory (included in the zip file).
2) Link to this URL (change it to suit your forums directory):
http://www.your-forum.com/forums/flash.php?play=tetris
The Tetris Flash Game will play integrated into your forums. This works for any Flash game or Movie.

Tell me about it, lol! I'm going to write pong myself, and I'm asking the copyright owners of some good flash games if they'll share their stuff.

The thing I love about the whole leaderboard concept is that you're introducing a competitive spirit into the forum, making things a whole lot more fun! Still, I like that you're doing with this hack

Well, here's a very basic Pong Flash Game I found - 1 player, you use the cursor keys to move the paddle. You can probably improve on it...

Unzip the ZIP file and upload pong.swf to your forums directory.

To run this integrated into your forum with my hack, use this command line (modifying the URL for your forums of course):

http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=pong

This is one of the better games from the same site. Again, it's a free download and free to use. It's a Samurai Fighting game, similar to the old style Karateka/ Budokan fighting (but with better graphics).

Unzip the ZIP file and upload samurai.swf to your forums directory.

To run this integrated into your forum with my hack, use this command line (modifying the URL for your forums of course):

http://www.your-forums.com/forums/flash.php?play=samurai

The ZIP file is fairly large, and your members will have to wait for the swf file to load in your forums, but it's not a bad game at all to be able to offer online at your forums!

LOL!

I replied to your post there.



Anyway, just letting people know that I will be away this whole weekend to the country, where there is no internet connection I am leaving now... so if you have any bugs to report, please post here, and I will sort them out when I get back.

Glad that people like this hack.

Also, please share any Flash games by posting them here.

See you all after the weekend...
