X-Arcade Tankstick stopped working in maximus

djlunchbox:
Have you tried plugging it in sans the adapter? It's got a USB plug too right?

Maybe the converter is bad or has conflicts.

1. I did switch to Launchbox. It does shine in some areas but it needs work in others in particular:
a.Exiting windows games -hit or miss. Btw, what is your method of exiting games. I had to make an ahk file with a list of running processes so if it detects the process running it kills it on guide button press.
b. No option to run a script on exit per emulator only on start
c. Big box start out of focus and on exiting some games it looses focus.
d. No easy way to add change bulk setting per platform. Works ok on emulators but on anything else like exe, or bat files for arcade dumps is hard and tedious.
This is all I can think of so far after 1.5 weeks of use.

2. My arcade stick and the adapter works fine I tried it on a clean install. What I don't understand is if I delete my maximus folder completely and reinstall it why does it still have all my license info. Where is it stored. I looked in app data , all hidden folders and registry and no trace of it. What the heck where is it? I am positive that some setting are stored somewhere and are corrupt so my maximus is not working right.
3. I am making a slow transition to launchbox but it kind of painful so far.

isilkin:
I wanted to post an update:
1. Creating a new user account in windows and transferring maximus there resolved my control issue. It is asking for alicense again. So the license is stored somewhere within user settings.
2. I am still learning about the launchbox. If anyone has a reliable way of exiting windows games please post. I have noticed that some games hook to your controllers or keyboard so using your key combo no longer works to exit some games.

In contrast, Maximum arcade constantly runs in the background and monitors your key strokes or button presses and then it can reliably exit every game. Is there a similar workaround for the launch box?

djlunchbox:
You might want to head over to those forums and ask. Quite possibly there's an option in LB to end or kill a process when you exit.

I haven't updated windows 7 in 4 years. Maximus is all fine. Haven't changed anything since I set it all up then. Im ok with it. It works. My focus now is virtual pinball..now that has changed ...
