I have added many games in the past with no problems. This time I downloaded 6 games
from ibpro site, when I installed , I got the above error message. The 6 games are:

game_hammerthrowTAY
game_spbob_Sea_MonsterTh
game_3DPokerV32PC
game_batandmouse2JS
game_PolePositionJS
game_fifaworldcup2006Th

So what caused the problem?

Thanks.

2 things.

1. Use the support forum section for support on the arcade.
2. These are issues with the games themselves. Certain games when compiled by whomever compiled them to work, sometimes didn't make them truely universal. You'll find probably maybe 1 or 2 per 100 games are goofed and unusable.


FYI, a way around those goofed games is sometimes placing all the files in their proper location instead of using the automatic un-taring function and installing them manually. Info on how to do that if you don't know can be found in the support forums. Link is in the "creation post" of this thread.

(This forum section is about the arcade platform. Which is a platform to run games created by others all around the world. The creator of this arcade isn't responsible for or have much knowledge of what games are out there and who is making them and if they work or not. He just maintains the script that makes it possible to play these games. The working games that is.)
