Recently I was searching for these myself but I only managed to find the SWF's for them so I decided to code the otherstuff myself and release them to you :)

Downloads:



How to:

1) Open up the archive and extract ads_mpu_300.swf to your hof_furni folder.
2) Extract the enclosed template image into your wwwroot or htdocs folder.
3) Run the following into your database

Code:
INSERT INTO `furniture` VALUES ('40035', 'ads_mpu_300', 'ads_mpu_300', 's', '1', '1', '1.6', '1', '0', '0', '40035', '1', '1', '1', '1', '1', 'default', '1', '0', '0');

Code:
INSERT INTO `catalog_items` (`id`, `page_id`, `item_ids`, `catalog_name`, `cost_credits`, `cost_pixels`, `cost_snow`, `amount`) VALUES
('40035', 'INSERT PAGE ID HERE', '40035', 'ads_mpu_300', '3', '0', '0', '1');



4) Add this to the bottem of your furnidata.txt
Code:
["s","40035","ads_mpu_300","34642","4","1","1","","ads_mpu_300 name","ads_mpu_300 desc","","-1","-1","","1"]
5) Once you have done all that go to your hotel and say :update_items and :update_catalogue (must be in that order).
6) Go to the catalogue and buy 'ads_mpu_300' then place it in your room.
7) Click the sign and this will appear:

In the box I have circled with red put in this (replace YOURHOTELIP with your hotels IP adress) if you renamed the file make sure you change the url to suit.

8) Now we are going to define what url we want it to take players to when they click it:

In the box I have circled red put in the URL you want the advert to take your users to when it's clicked.

9) Save

Click the button I have circled red (you may want to put something in the X,Y, and Z boxes to reposition the advert).

10) You're done!

If you followed these steps and cleared your browsers cache you should be able to see somthing like this. If your image says template on it and you want to change it you can edit that image in paint.net or photoshop to suit your needs (don't forget to clear cache).


It might work but I tried. so anyways rate this release from 1-10 ;)

Thanks,

Hypomethic
