Hi All - which script is this I bought?

nxn · 10-13-2007, 12:26 AM

I am a noob to arcade games and I just bought a script on eBay and I'm trying to figure out which one it is. Seems fairly robust if basic. Came with 190 or so games installed + a pack of 1300 others I haven't been able to download yet. Screenshot:

It has the following php files:

index.php
game.php
system.class.php
templates.tpl.php
footer.inc.php
db.cnf.php

+ admin panels etc

Anyone recognize it?
Thanks!

GameScript ver1

I have some mods for it that break it up into categories, random game on the front page, social bookmarks, available on my site.

OK thanks I will check your sites out. I have made a couple of mods myself - complete layout redo (single column of games on the right with a center ad/video column, made the dropdown menus sort alphabetically, also individiual games stretch nearlly full screen automatically), I'm in the process of rewriting all the game descriptions so they are unique text of search engines - no admin UI for that, just edit the SQL dump offline and reload to the site. Question:

If you buy a script or game package online, how do you figure out if it is legit, pirated or what? Obviously buying from a well known source is safe, and buying from a random seller on eBay is unsafe, but is there any way of knowing for sure?

Similarly there are many games out there that are "free to add to your website."
Is there a list of sites that offer free games. I'm aware of miniclip and Free flash games for websites, any others?

Cheers

Ask loads of questions in a forum like this one lol. In here there are people who have been around for a while, and know things. There are a couple lists growing somewhere that list sites that allow you to use their games. I will need to look for them again.

Gameza.info, no, this is definitely GS version 1. And it is pirated. GameScript doesn't really care about this version any more though and does not really enforce the copyright on it so long as people leave a link in the footer back to them. You will find many many people out there who think they have purchased resale rights to this script, but were conned.
