Automatic Installation Service

The Automatic Installation Service (AI Service) is a fast and convienient way to get your arcade off the ground. It's also great for webmasters who want to be able to install new games quickly and easily.

Signup Now

The AI Service is a subscription based service - that means you pay every month for the service until you unsubscribe. You can use the service as much as you want during that month. There is no limit on the number of games you install with it. So what are you waiting for? Sign up for the AI Service now!

How does it work?

The AI Service is part of your CMS module. Typically you would access it from the administrative area of your arcade. In PostNuke you click on "Add Games," then "Automatic Installation Service." In Xoops the process is similar, but you access the service from the administrative menu.

The service works like this:

  1. The service requests a list of available games from the pnFlashGames.com servers.
  2. The script on your site then removes any games you already have installed.
  3. The remaining games are displayed in a form with a checkbox for each game.
  4. You can now browse the list and select the games you want. Each game has a thumbnail image, description, game rating on pnFlashGames.com, and other pertinant information to help you decide. There is also a preview link for each game.
  5. Once you've made your selection, you click the form's submit button and the service does the rest. The game files are downloaded from pnFlashGames.com and the game is automatically installed in your arcade.

What's the catch?

No catch, it's really that simple. At this time the only compatible CMS plugins are for PostNuke and Xoops. We are working to make this great service available to the other plugins, and we'll let you know as soon as that is done. In the meantime, our SDK has code examples for you if you wanted to try and get the service going on your site right away. It's not hard and there are code examples in the SDK.
