Title: My registration no longer works
Post by: blackvulcan3 on March 09, 2018, 10:59:00 pm: Hi, I first bought Maximus Arcade in 2006.

I still have the original email.

After losing my arcade machine hard drive today I am prompted to register my version of 2.10.

It now tells me I have an Incorrect Registration code.

I have copied and pasted all details from my original email.

Failing that I typed it all in ensuring I was correct.

Just trying to use my favourite front end, can anyone please help.

Maximus has been dead in the water for years and is no longer supported.

Plenty of better FE’s out there now.

This. I switched to Launchbox recently, after having Maximus for the past couple years. Maximus is dead. It's nice to have a Front End that is currently supported and gets constant updates.

Are you sure you are getting it exactly correct -- THe code is case sensitive and any minor mistake will make it not work - Including Capitalization in the E-mail address or a space between letters in the Name etc.

This is a good point. I would always just copy and paste it into the fields.

Post by: nexusmtz on March 11, 2018, 01:24:05 am: 2.10b4 and above used a new code. You have to hope that you can get a response from mameseer somehow, or find an earlier version.
