Thanks for letting me know you were aware of it and thanks all the work you've done making and developing these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPosh Posted June 15, 2024 Report Share Posted June 15, 2024 So I installed it on a new Laptop, all installed fine etc... fires up etc... navigation is top shelf, but, upon choosing a machine to play, cant put money in, arcades the same, almost like, coin entry has been disabled or something. Placing the mouse on the coin insert mech dont work either, guessing its something simple Im missing? as it works 100% on my other PC with no issues at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance? No chance I'm sorry to say, it would be diverting a massive amount of time away from making the new Oasis software, and I'm not getting much dev time in as it is! All that work would then be essentially wasted as the machines will all need to be built again in Oasis. 5 [ Arcade Simulator ] Pre-alpha installer: https://tinyurl.com/2kcrkprh | Donation info: https://tinyurl.com/yzvgl4xo [ Community Drive ] The drive: http://tinyurl.com/yckze665 [ Fruit Machine Database ] Initial google sheets (WIP): https://tinyurl.com/2c5znxzz [ Fruit Machine ROM Archive ] The archive: https://tinyurl.com/3jhzbueb [ Fruit Machine Settings/Tests Guide ] https://tinyurl.com/yuebw8b5 [ MAME (fixes/improvements) ] Commits: https://github.com/johnparker007/mame/commits/master/?author=johnparker007 [ MFME Launch ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/MFMELaunch [ Oasis ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/Oasis [ Sound ROM Editor ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/SoundRomEditor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnparker007 Posted June 30, 2024 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2024 @royb232 I saw your post in the chat box on the front page of the forum. With this prototype version of Arcade Simulator, the virus protectors have started picking up one of its components as a false positive. This is what causes the input to not work.

johnparker007 Posted July 8, 2024 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2024 (edited) @spinrite This version of Arcade Sim also needs MFME v20.1 to be installed on your system. Suspect you may either not have it installed, or haven't run the Updater in the MFME install folder. After installing MFME, there's an Updater exe in the MFME install folder (default path is usually C:\MFME\v20). If it's still not working after doing that then rerunning Arcade Sim, let us know, though hopefully that will fix it for you Edited July 8, 2024 by johnparker007 [ Arcade Simulator ] Pre-alpha installer: https://tinyurl.com/2kcrkprh | Donation info: https://tinyurl.com/yzvgl4xo [ Community Drive ] The drive: http://tinyurl.com/yckze665 [ Fruit Machine Database ] Initial google sheets (WIP): https://tinyurl.com/2c5znxzz [ Fruit Machine ROM Archive ] The archive: https://tinyurl.com/3jhzbueb [ Fruit Machine Settings/Tests Guide ] https://tinyurl.com/yuebw8b5 [ MAME (fixes/improvements) ] Commits: https://github.com/johnparker007/mame/commits/master/?author=johnparker007 [ MFME Launch ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/MFMELaunch [ Oasis ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/Oasis [ Sound ROM Editor ] Source code: https://github.com/johnparker007/SoundRomEditor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I removed arcade and reinstalled it but still the same, maybe a MFME problem again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so if you want I can remote into your PC with a program like TeamViewer and we'll very likely be able to get this working Apologies it's a faff, on the new Oasis project, it doesn't do anything 'weird' (Arcade Sim hacks its local copy of MFME.exe) so it should work for everyone, but it's a long way off.

Great game, thanks John for your help and esp the offer of TeamViewer Glad you got it working! That Access Violation error is MFME itself, so no changing of Arcade Sim settings would fix it - so great news you found a workaround! Enjoy the Arcade Sim now it's working There is a future Arcade Sim in development, but it's part of a large overall project; Oasis Suite, that will contain a bunch of inter-operational programs to design and play arcade machines, so then these kind of issues will be resolved for all, as it will be using MAME rather than MFME, for a more stable integrated emulation system. But it's a long way off, so great news you got it working, so you can get into those fruit machines right now!
