Ask vgamer to help you with this.

its because my host has special characters in the database name EX:  '-353035397ab4' the dash and me or them are unable to change it they said

yeah didnt work lol i think i need a database of the arcade allready installed on a copy of smf the file you gave me installed no problem but still shows i need to install it all on smf and i get the error

ex: install smf
    install arcade
    export the whole data base

Yes it's just the arcade tables.

You probably already know this but I'm going to say it anyway. All you should need to do it make sure there are no arcade tables already in your database, change the table prefixes to match your own database and copy and paste the whole of the text into the SQL box in phpmyadmin then click on go and it will add the tables, if it says 'are you sure you want to' then click on yes and proceed, see image attached

That just the arcade data base and not and right ?? It looks it when I looked at it

Oh wow brother thank you soooo much I'll try it once I get off work tonight

Here you go Vincent, see how you get on with this

You could do me a favor you have a test site correct and if so, could you install SF 2.1 and then install the arcade the newest version I guess and then once it's all installed, can you export the database for the whole thing and post it here and I'll make the necessary changes for my site and then upload the SQL Database
