ArcadeOX Full Mode Stopped Working For Me
 
Bah, I didn't catch the error in the title fast enough. This is only for NES games. I can run it just fine with, for example, SNES games. Sorry!

Hi. Just in the past couple of days, I'm getting an error whenever I try to load ArcadeOX Full Mode for any NES game. I've tried both Super Mario Bros. 3 and Faxanadu and I get the same error. All the other modes work fine.

  1. Are you interested in using TeamViewer (more info below)? I would prefer not to use it, but I will if it solves the problem. The problem is me being available to do that in the next couple days.
  2. What is your OS? Example Vista, XP, Mac OSX, etc. Windows 7
  3. What is your browser? Example Firefox 3.5, Internet Explorer 7, etc. Firefox 16.0.2, but the error is still there when I try IE.
  4. Post a link to one game you are having problems with. http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/4000/
  5. What Play Mode is causing the problem? Example ArcadeOX Score, Java Full, etc. NES ArcadeOX Full Mode
  6. Has it ever worked correctly before? Yes, it worked just fine until a couple days ago. As far as I know, nothing on my computer changed. I am a pretty good ways into Faxanadu, in Full Mode.
  7. Describe the problem. The error that pops up every time I try and load NES ArcadeOX Full Mode is: "DirectInput8Create() failed! Exiting application."
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Just randomly started working for me again. Again, no change on my computer as far as I know. Both Faxanadu and Super Mario Bros 3 work perfectly. Wierd.

I did everything that you said to do and nothing changed. I disabled Avast! and still got the error, and I checked my version of Direct X and it says that I have version 11 (not 8 ).

The error is back again. I don't know why it's only happening some of the time.

Are you using a controller?

Are you using JoyToKey or anything similar?

Nope. Just the keyboard.

Surprised this issue hasn't been replied to since November. I'm getting this error as well.


Are you interested in using TeamViewer (more info below)?
No thanks

What is your OS? Example Vista, XP, Mac OSX, etc.
Windows 7

What is your browser? Example Firefox 3.5, Internet Explorer 7, etc.
Tried Firefox and Google Chrome(v27)

Post a link to one game you are having problems with.
Any?

What Play Mode is causing the problem? Example ArcadeOX Score, Java Full, etc.
I've tried pretty much every ArcadeOX mode and every type of platform. Java works, but ArcadeOX doesn't, which limits the amount of games.

Has it ever worked correctly before?
Nope, the first time I've tried this website was today.

Describe the problem.
Same problem described above.

Re: ArcadeOX Full Mode Stopped Working For Me
 
Yeah, I'm still having this problem. No one responded so I figured it was either being worked on or no one knew any solutions.

I actually bought a Microsoft Surface Pro and it is having the exact same issues as the PC I described in the OP.

Hrm, I realize now that I could have been a bit more specific in the answers to the questions in the OP. I will answer them again...it's been awhile anyways.

1) Are you interested in using TeamViewer (more info below)?
Sure, why not. Name a time and I'll see if I can swing it.

2) What is your OS?
This happens on Windows 7 and Windows 8. No differences.

3) What is your browser?
This happens on Internet Explorer 10 and Firefox 21. No differences.

4) Post a link to one game you are having trouble with:
Super Mario Bros 3 - Nintendo Entertainment System Keep in mind it happens with all NES, Sega, and N64 games.

http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/3679/
http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/125/
http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/7617/
http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/3706/
http://www.retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/10448/ Yes, I clicked on a random game. =p. Anyways, I'm not sure if Amiga is Sega or not. It's on the Sega row, so I included it.


5) What Play Mode is causing the problem? Example ArcadeOX Score, Java Full, etc.
ArcadeOX Full Mode and ArcadeOX Score Mode. Not real sure why I said that the Java modes don't work. They must not have at that point.

6) Has it ever worked correctly before?
Yes, I seemed to have random bursts where it would work fine, but that hasn't been for a long time. I actually completed Faxanadu. Sorry that I can't be more specific. I have no idea why it randomly works.

7) Describe the problem:
The NES error: "DirectInput8Create() failed! Exiting application."
The N64 Mupen64Plus error: "Could not create DirectInput Object for whatever reason."
The N64 1964 error: "Error. Game did not load."
The Sega SMX error: "DirectInput Init Error #1. DirectX 7.0 or higher required."
The Sega 32X error: Same as above.
The Genesis error: Same as above.
The Game Gear error: Same as above.
The Amiga error: "Failed to initialize DirectInput"

Some additional things:
I have DirectX 11 on my tablet and on my PC.
I have no gamepads or JoyToKey or anything like this on my tablet or on my PC.
Disabling my antivirus programs does nothing.
If I go out and download emulators and ROMS, they work fine. It's when I try and run them on this site that they don't.

Oh, one last kinda important thing. Everything works great on my Dad's computer at work. The only difference I can see between that computer and mine is that my Dad's has an integrated video card instead of something like a NVIDIA or an ATI. I beat Battle Kid on my Dad's computer (with save states, mind you...I'm not that much of a masochist).

Have you tried out the recommendations from above? I got that error too not long ago and found it was my antivirus that was blocking arcadeox.

Re: ArcadeOX Full Mode Stopped Working For Me
 
I'm having a hard time finding ArcadeOX on my computer, so I can't let it through my firewall. maybe I need to re-download it???

Kong 09-26-2013 08:16 PM

Re: ArcadeOX Full Mode Stopped Working For Me
 
Try both ArcadeOX Full and ArcadeOX Score Modes in both of these games.

Let me know which works and doesn't work.
Aladdin - Super Nintendo
SNES Full works?
SNES Score works?

Aladdin - Sega Master System
SMS Full works?
SMS Score works?

Re: ArcadeOX Full Mode Stopped Working For Me
 
I finally figured out why it was not working for me on my new pc. Turns out that if I have a Chrome browser open, it wont work in IE, closing Chrome makes it work fine.
