I apologize for not being around much as of late.
It isn't recommended to use improper characters for your db schema (db names,table names or column names) although I did attempt to have the installer try to circumvent any errors when it encounters those characters.

An option for you is to copy your DB for download (for safety) & then alter it to not contain any illegal characters.
Afterward you may have to use the SMF tool to fix any reference to the older db table names.
Having your DB backup available can fix things if you have trouble while trying to do this.
 

So I was having the same error when I tryed to install the battle mod so in order to fix that I had to add the backtick to a couple parts of the 2 files dealing with the data base and I was able to install the battle mod and all is well so I need to find where I need to add the backtick like this '{ $data_base }' that's not the back tick it's the one pointing the other way I can't do it from my phone but you get what I mean in the database files... I'll figure it out eventually lol

no  still getting the same error during install i can upload it now tho thru the package manager

Does that mean that everything is ok now?

Just to update my host added all files from the arcade to their white list

so i found this on the error logs of my host

PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected single-quoted string "{db_prefix}", expecting ")" in

/arcadeinstall/Subs-Install.php on line 53'

It's funny tho because ever other mod will install except the arcade lol

Thanks I installed a local xampp to test and everything installed no problem so I think it's on my host where the problem is where do I find the MySQL version at?

Phomyadmin is 5.1.3
