New onArcade v1.1 is out and it is better than ever. There have been many very big changes (I guess there is only 1 file that has no changes in it).
There is no upgrade script yet, sorry
, I just haven't had time to finish it, but I'll try to finish it as soon as possible.
What is new in v1.1?
+ ionCube
Lets start with bad news: I have encoded two (2) files (config.php and adminconfig.php) and admin panel will be checking home to see if license is valid (it doesn't change much because even before admin panels was checking back home for version check). Installation script has also been encoded. This had to be done due to big problems with pirazy. First version of onArcade was first posted on warez sites only about 1 - 2 weeks after official release, I wouldn't like to see that happen with v1.1. There have also been people selling invalid license keys and scamming people that way. That has to stop and that is why I have to use ionCube.
It doesn't change much on your side, your server should have ionCube free loader installed, but if it doesn't then it can always be downloaded from ionCube website or on most servers you could use runtime loader, I have bundle some with the script.
+ New structure
