Working again, thanks for the fix John

Antivirus software can be a bit of a pain! This won't affect standard users of Oasis when that is done, since it doesn't need these dll's to run the fruity machine emulation. It will still be an issue for advanced users who want to convert MFME layouts into Oasis layouts themselves (as they'll need to install the MfmeTools add-on to extract the MFME layouts), but this will be a small number of users interested in that side of things.

Norton flagged up something for me (high risk threat) and would not go past 38% when loading , managed to exclude it and now works

How to fix: - Open Windows Defender - select the Virus & Threat Protection tab: - scroll down in the Window and click Manage Settings: - click Add Or Remove Exclusions (you may need to scroll down to see this option: - Click the '+ Add an Exclusion' button, and select 'Folder' from the dropdown list: - Choose the Arcade Simulator folder, on my machine this looks like this (on your machine the username will not be 'John!') Now you should be able to use machines running via MFME (the fruit machines) again!

Ah right, have just checked and the same issue is present over here. It appears that ArcadeSim is unable to start the'hack dll' I wrote to inject functionality into MFME. I wonder if it's to do with Windows antivirus having changed and it now sees the dll injection as a potential threat: Thanks for the info, I suspect it's something Windows antivirus has started doing. I'm a bit under the weather for coding at the mo, hopefully I can figure a workaround fix, so we can keep ArcadeSim working to tide us over until Oasis... I'll look into it hopefully soonish, fingers crossed I can find a simple fix, without needing to try build an ArcadeSim update, since the codebase it pretty much 'retired'... would like it to keep working though for the next 1-2 years if poss!

Its ok for me
