I would really like there to be a store component where it ONLY uses AUP.
Is this possible? I need one pretty much ASAP, also in the mean time, why do you suggest is a good alternative? I tried using a Virtuemart AUP Payment system, but that really sucked.

Thanks

Yeah, I have been thinking about something on the lines of this also! May I ask what was wrong with the Virtuemart component? I have heard good word about it, however it may not work well with AUP I assume?

Well it doesn't fit my purpose. I want to sell in-game items on my RSPS (Game), and I want to use a point system to buy these items. Not cash.

So first thing, when looking at the prices of the VM items, it gets confusing how many points it is. Also, VM was very confusing to set up. AND VERY HARD to disable No-shipment and what not. I mean I was able to do it, but it was a pain in the butt.

Seeing how the stuff I'm "selling" are non-tangibles that aren't downloadable, it's quite annoying and tough. Also sometimes with the VM Component, people can buy things even if they don't have the points. Even though I have the rule set in place. >.>

I'd be willing to pay for a custom component/module that would be more fitted for fun stuff/non-tangible stuff.

Other cool possibilities that this component could be used for:
- Users can buy medals/ranks with their points. Which could be displayed on their CB/JS/Kunena/etc...
- Similar feature like GiftExchange, where users could buy "stuff" and either keep it for themselves to gift it to someone.

These are just a few cool possibilities that this component could be used for.

Hello

Actually we have an AUP payment processor rule at nordmograph.com:
www.nordmograph.com/en/downloads/details...yment-processor.html
There are actually 2 of these, one for VM 1.1.x and one for VM2.x in the same package.
Of course both deduct points when checking out. Easy way is to set it as 1 point =$1 or 1 pint = $0.01

But you're free to dislike Virtuemart though it's a great mart software.
I'm not sure what exactly you sell / downloadable or not. But you could eventually use joomla core content articles and set a rule to dedcut points when viewing some articles...

You could also work with other mart software for Joomla but they are not free and would require some customization to support AUP payment.

Well, the stuff I'm selling are not downloadable stuff. And when I tried setting up VM, I couldn't find a way to make it set to "No Shipping/No Downloading"

The stuff I'm selling are in game items to my game that I'm hosting.
