Indeed... a working PvM add-on would really complete this hack. Also, do you plan to release new battle scenes if you can come up with any?

[Mijae]

Yes, a PvM will make users happy, and me too

[Darkwaltz4]

sorry for the short post, but i just wanted to say that i am currently working on a monster arena, although i dunno how free ill make it >.< its quite complicated, ill reveal features later, i have to get offline, lol

also, i was going to show you my custom stats equations :-p which work very nicely and better than the weird version of the standard one O.o but ill save it for tomarrow~

kaotic -- do you plan to release new battle scenes if you can come up with any?

I plan to release some new battle scenes, prob not all but we'll see how it goes. I'm setting up some themed battle scenes as well. I'll post some of my meshes later for those interested in seening work in progress...

bitsys should i start a addon thread or post here?

Update:

What would it take to add a Timer to the battles, aka making it so players can only do so many battles a day, with the play member, and other other members, aka two toggles.

say, member A and B, can only fight each other 5 times a day, where as member A can find other members C D E F etc up to 25 different members in one day or what ever you choose?

This would stop members from trying to spam rpg points by dualing them selves or others massively to get gils/other points ?

[Moreliator]

Bitsy, some of my members suggested you have a new battle activate the "New PM" Popup window... the users report that they get the PM that they have been challenged, but they don't get a popup for the new battle PMs like they would any other pm. I don't know how hard this would be, but it would be a decent addon.

Also, some of my links in the itemshop do not work. The links are like this: "http://itemshop.php?action=whatever" instead of putting my domain in front. I checked the template, and it used PHPSELF bust I guess it wasn't working. Any quick fix?

Also, can you explain the section of the code that determines if a move hits or not, it seems very confusing, and right now the moves are missing too much.

ALSO, people with a ' in there user name can't be challenged by someone else, rather, they have to challenge in order for it to work. The ' doesn't mess up teh script anymore, but it does still prevent the users from being challengable.

finally, I have a question about anger. Users can apparently select the "show opponent you are angry" box when their AP is around 85%. The users say nothing differnt happens though. Is this suppose to happen, or is it only suposed to happen at 100%? And is it adding 10% damage?

THANK YOU SO MUCH BITSY!!! That solved the problem right away!

Now, just another quick question . Do the "+ to def" and "+ to attack" options work? I tried them out and the opponents move never hit when I had a "+ to def" item equipped... the move either reflected and said it damaged the oppoenent, which it didn't, or the wordlet said "Opponent dealt points of damage" without a number, dealing me no harm. I'm searching the thread but I can't seem to find if you had said these two categories don't work. If not, does the armor category work? Thanks.

They should be working. If the + to Def item added defense that was greater than the opponents attack, then the opponent won't be able to do any damage. That may be what happened. How much have you tested this?

The armor category should work like regular defense.

yah i installed Auto-Update stats add-on

Can you verify that they are actually losing HP. Sometimes your maxhp goes up and it makes it look liek you are losing HP, when actually all that is happening is your HP is staying the same and your machp is going up. I am pretty sure this is related to the update stats code.

That kind of system would involve an infinately large mask system. You would have to keep track of who fought who for 24 hours in a temporary table and check that every time a battle is made. Sounds a little messy.

What if users could only fight a certain number of battles per day?

For now, you can replace $PHP_SELF with itemshop.php throughout the whole file. I remember having a problem similar to this a long time ago, but I have not seen it since. I also can't remember if there is a php setting to fix this or not. Hmm, I will look in to it.

Also, can you explain the section of the code that determines if a move hits or not, it seems very confusing, and right now the moves are missing too much.

Your chance to hit should never be below 40%, and never be above 90%. The equation for calculating your chance to hit is

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

This means that you start with a 60% chance to hit, and this value goes up or down based on your speed relative to your opponents evade.

I think I might have just found a bug with anger.

If you think there is something wrong, first try turning on the battle debug messages. To do this, open battleupdate.php. At the top, you should see:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Change it to:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Is there an error message that is displayed? What happens when a person tries to challenge them?

I don't have the auto update mod installed.

I wonder is there any punishment for loosing a battle? One person on my board seems to think when he lost a battle his hp went down a bit.

Are you sure their maxhp is just going up, with their HP staying the same? This makes it look like their HP went down, when it actually stayed the same. Also, if their posts per day drops, then their HP will drop as well.

[Moreliator]

My first addon! I hope you like it, as this is my first addon I've ever done to a hack ! It randomizes who goes first upon the initial start of the battle. The following code gives the challenger a 33% chance to start the battle and the challenged person a 66% chance. Works quite well. I also included instructions on how to display "Determining..." on the battle.php browse page, that way people won't decline a challenge if they see they aren't going first. Here it goes...

**********************************
// Randomized First Turn Addon
// Edits: battlefight.php and battle.php
// By Moreliator
**********************************

in battlefight.php find

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

and REPLACE with

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

You can change "$rn" to equal something else if you want. For example, if you wanted it to be totally random (50% chance either user could go first) you would change

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

to

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

now, in battle.php find

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

and REPLACE with

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Enjoy! I know my members got tired of the challenged user always going first, and this little addon really spiced things up!

update: revamping gallery :P

[Moreliator]

Thanks pixel. The background looks nice. Say, did you ever get your donation problem worked out, the one you posted about here:
http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...71&#post408171 bug with itemshop.php#post408171

I had t he same problem, and when I did the fix Bitsy posted to do, the MY SQL error doesn't happen, rather a 404 cannot find page error happens now. I guess its a better error as I won't get all the emails about the SQL error, but its still a 404 error. I changed the string to "$userid" as Bitsy posted.

Any suggestions Bitsy or Pixel?

I think you can just use UPGRADE.TXT to get to the current version.

Hi Bitsys,
The upgrade.txt file only shows how to upgrade from v.66 to v.67. I would love to upgrade from v.61 to the latest one. Is there a way to do that ?

Thanks

If there is also a way to remove v. 61 and reinstall the latest version, I would welcome that too.

[Darkwaltz4]

ugh, stupid auto update thing! i literally rewrote it, but im not posting it, but i can safely say it works flawlessly now for me ^_^

i also did default registration stats for people, and i would post those too except that you have to figure out your own stat scheme (mine is complely been redone) so...yeah ^_^ now on my forums NOONE will ever have 0 hp, and itll be constantly updating, lol

anyways, bitsys mentioned a long time ago that he abandoned shields due to them not working, and i said i would make them work somehow, and well....i did ^_^ here we go:

NEW ADD ON!!!!!
Darkwaltz4 Shield Add-On for the RPG IH by bitsys...
Features:

Shields' Buff will reflect battle damage
You can apply it to deflect physical, magical, or both, based on which code you edit....

(add no queries) 1 template edit, 6 file edits, 1 query

have fun ^_^
