onArcade 2.2 game pack installer

onArcade 2.2 has new game pack installer built into admin panel that downloads all files straight from onArcade server, so there is no need to upload or download anything. This is what you have to do:

  1. Make sure your files/file/, files/image/ and cache/ directories are writable by PHP (chmoded to 777).
  2. Go to admin panel, click on Files in the top menu and Install game packs on the side menu.
  3. Select the game pack you wish to install.
  4. Select the appropriate options:
    • Status – this is the status new games will be added with.
    • Duplicated titles – if set to Skip then game pack installer will skip game if game with the same title already exists in the database.
    • Duplicated files – if set to Rename then game pack installer will rename game file if another file with the same name already exists (e.g. if your server already has file called on-1.swf and game pack consists a file called on-1.swf then game pack file will be renmaed to 1on-1.swf). If set to Skip then games with duplicated file names will not be added.
  5. Click install.

If you have problems

If you see no game packs on game packs installation page then your server probably does not have allow_url_fopen on. If you cannot enable allow_url_fopen on your server (it is in php.ini) then go to Settings page and try changing Copy function. First try cURL and if that does not work then try Socket. It is not possible to download games using Socket connection, so you will have to manually download them from www.www.onarcade.com/order/
