SMFPets is Finally Here (0.1 out)

[tamibrown]

That works wonders!  I had a few owners who had pets they bought when I was still working the kinks out of everything that their pets got stuck in training, and couldnt get them out.  This allows them to get rid of those pets.

I am getting a "The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF." error on the 0.1 version. Do I have to install the first version before trying the second version?

You need to install the first pet version, THEN install 0.1, as it's an update.

I *still* have no pet images in pet central - see page 5.  I tried that code but I just got parse errors as per my post on page 5

I have installed the pet upgrade hoping that might have fixed it but I still have no pictures

Can anyone please help with this?




edited to add:  also how do I add a new pet?  I cant find anywhere to add new pets.  I think something has gone wrong somewhere  *feels dumb*

as for where to load the pets, you upload your pets php file to the pets_breeds folder

thats cool, thanks.  I just tried those edits and my pet image is there!

Its been a while since I looked at this and I couldnt remember where to upload the pets - I was thinking it was something via the shop

thanks for your help

Ok I added a new pet and then tried to buy it but it says

You are not allowed any more pets!!!

I only have one, is it set somewhere that you can only have one pet or did I do something bad that I can't have any more?

You have to buy a pet cage in ur shop, this increases the amount of pets u can have.

[perplexed]

ok, I bought a cage - I still cant have another pet

I went into the database and deleted my existing pet - I still cant have another pet

so now I have no pet and everytime I try to buy one it says

You are not allowed any more pets!!!

[Lucid_Dream]

did u use the cage.  Buying it aint enough, u have to use it like a normal item.

[perplexed]

yeah I did and it still didnt make any difference

I'll go look again...

[perplexed]

ok, it worked that time but...

It said I could have up to two pets - but I have no pets as I deleted the first pet from the database - so I bought a pet.  that was ok, but then I tried to buy a second pet and it said I couldnt have any more.

I think I messed up somewhere when I deleted pet 1 as it might think I still have it.


edited to add:  I bought another cage (should give me 3 pets)  I managed to buy a 2nd pet, but I dont know how to fix the error now as it thinks I have three lol

not a big deal as its a test site unless it expects me to do things with my pet and it aint there 

[inkstains]

you need to access your database through phpMyAdmin or whatever and change your numpets value in the smf_members table (just look for your username) to whatever the correct value of pets should be

[perplexed]

ok I tried to do that and got some huge error in phpmyadmin.  I dont know why but I will try again in the morning

You need to install the first pet version, THEN install 0.1, as it's an update.

It's still saying the package is corrupt. Is it a package where I have to just add the unzipped files to the pets directory and overwrite some files, or should it work in the forum package manager? I didn't see any instructions on the download page.

Also, how do I actually access the pets? I can see the cage and food in the store, and it let me set them up for sale no problem.
