How do I actually install those games in my arcade?

[DaVitsche]

I just came to realize that I have no idea how to get these games in my arcade? I downloaded some, which is awesome. But I'm stuck on what to do now. Randomly putting these files in folders is not working :p

Is there a guide that I'm missing on this forum? That would be great, because not everyone is good when it comes to this kind of stuff :D

You would upload them via FTP to arcade/tar file.
I would not recommend adding more then 10 at a time to the tar file as it could cause server time outs when you mass install.

After that you will go into your admincp/Arcade/Add game, scroll to the bottom, on the right side you will see - install all Games - ...click it & you are good to go.

Or do them one at a time on the same page if you have categories set up.

Do you have to upload to your cpan ftp is there anyway to do it in cpan only?
