ALIEN FLUX 1.5 released - Special Offer!

Eh!? Are you the same Viro on the puppygames forums that can’t get it to work?

Cas :slight_smile:

Yeah, I’m the same Viro.

Ah… don’t worry. It works now.

I borked my system because I had initially installed LWJGL /System/Libraries/JavaVM.Framework/Versions/1.4.1/Libraries and it probably wasn’t configured right.

Deleting it from there allowed the game to run.

My bad ::slight_smile:

Hmph!

I finally get a system that allows me to play Alien Flux, and then the vagaries of Switch cards don’t allow me to buy the thing! >:(

My switch card (from the Bank of Scotland) doesn’t have an issue number, and so the in-game payment thingy doesn’t let me proceed!

I suppose i can nag someone else with a different card into paying for it, but i thought you might want to know that some people are going to have this additional barrier between hand and wallet.

I’ve just encountered this problem myself on a number of sites now I’ve got my new Switch card with no issue number. Try selecting Credit Card instead and see if it works :stuck_out_tongue:

No joy I’m afraid, it complains of an internal error in your server, and advises me to contact support. :frowning:

So here i am. :wink:

Personal experiences:

  • lloyds TSB BankOfScotland told me they’d given me a switch card (despite it never having the switch logo) years ago; these days, the same card is far from being a switch card (hence the “use VISA form option” advice normally give).
  • alternative to issue numbers you can often enter the 3-digit verification code and it works
  • …or: just don’t enter ANY digits in the box at all, and again for some people and some sites it works

I’ll take a look at my logs and try and sort the issue out with SWREG. They must have come across this problem by now.

Cas :slight_smile:

I just bought a registration through the website that you link on puppygames, and it worked fine without an issue number.

Perhaps you can just let the user continue in the in-game payment wizard without an issue number and have it all just work?

Looks like swreg have sorted this out on their hosted payment screens, so I’ll have to find out how to make my server-based one work properly as well.
