I used Thunderpopper2 as shareware - it was great - so I purchased it
Since registering - it loads ok - until I hit start - then it instantly says 'No Balloons left!'
Frustrating!!
tech info
Windows XP
IE
32 bit colour
1024 x 768
edges smoothed (if i need to change this please advise how)
I can't get my comp code back as the product says 'thank you for registering' - so i can't request a new code :(
thanks for your help in anticipation
i had the same prob but with the share ware version and all i did was re-download it and it worked maybe try that
i have done that - no change :-X
are you playing with a theme on because ive noticed i cant get tp2 to run if there is a different theme like the space them thats all i can suggest.
or it maybe if you have smoot egdes check to see if you have
right-click on my computer>propeties>advanced tab then click proformance and scroll down to see if its checked or not
tyvm 4 trying to help
- i removed smooth edges and its still the same
- i'd like some technical help - or i'll have to go to paypal and ask them to refund - i'm so un impressed with the support I won't risk my money on other badgehelp products - which is a shame
This is not a font dependant auto. What java are you using.
Go to Internet Explorer>tools>internet options>advanced and scroll down and look at what java is checked. Uncheck what you have and check the other. Reboot and give that a try, please.
i was using sun java - as when i used the shareware
i did as u asked - still the same :(
any other suggestions gratefully recieved
ty Pam
Pam, I really want this auto to work for you. I understand your frustration completely. I hate to repeat what someone has already suggested here, but your game has different "themes." Try changing the theme screen and see if anything happens. I always played the "classic" theme myself.
i have noticed that thunderpopper2 will only play on classic theme for me
i'm using classic - nothings changed since i used the shareware (other than i did as u(Barbara) suggested)
i'm totally frustrated
I can't get a new code - cos my prog says thank you for registering
it loads ok - then i hit start
instantly 'No ballons left' - tho if i close TP2 - i can play
I appreciate u trying to help me
I truly wish that I could think of something to help you here. If anyone can think of anything, please help Pam out.
By any chance are you hitting the solve button? You should only need to hit the start button.
is there any way i can make the program show as 'un-registered'
so I can get a new code - i have emails confirming i paid
Why would you need a new code? It won't make a difference. It's still the same program.
I just tested the program. If you only hit the solve button it will just sit there. You need to hit Start to get the auto popping.
the shareware worked until i registered iti haven't changed anythng here - (and i'm the only one using my computer)
so.... it feels like an issue around the registration - I look for whats changed when i have problems - thats what changed
i hit START - then it says 'No Balloons left'
Pam, I want you to yank this bad boy out of your computer. Look in your c drive and get it all out and then download it again.
ok - will do that now
ty all 4 trying to help me
i deleted TP2 and emptied the recycle bin
downloaded again
it still says its a registered copy and still says 'no balloons left' as soon as i hit start
the ballons are there - when i close TP2 - i can play it manually
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Dang! Pam, please e-mail badgehelp@aol.com with your problem. I hope you get it up and running again soon.
You can email me a screenshot to homer@pogocheats.net
Be sure I can see both the auto and the game in the screenshot. Sometimes it helps if I can see what is or isn't happening. I'll take a look and see if it looks ok. If not do as Barb suggested and email BadgeHelp.
Be sure to cover up any pogo user info or URL.
I'm buying Homer a beer! He is a sweetie!
Thanks. Next time I run out I'll be knocking on your door. :P
done and done!
Guess that means I better get started. :P
Badghelp will likely have to help you at this point. But I have two ideas. Both are all just guesses. And neither involves any risk.
First: Go to www.download.com and get a program called regscrubxp. It's freeware. Run that bad boy. Even if this doesn't work, if you haven't cleaned up your registry lately it will likely help your computer.
Second Download another browser. I'd try Firefox, but that's my personal preference. Try the auto with the other browser.
Like I said, I'm just guessing. I am NOT a representative of Badgehelp.
But neither of these suggestions should do any harm... The first may actually help.
Otherwise I'm stumped along with everyone else..
Homer - I've just emailed you with screenshots - sorry 4 the delay but i'm in UK which is plus 5 on Eastern time - and i was getting sleepy
thanks again for trying to help
Pam
i hope you get it worked out O0
YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE finally I've got it working.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone who gave me their time to try and help.
BIG HUG to Homer who spotted the problem - I had corrupt images of the balloons on my computer (the bottom halves were grayed).
I'd best get busy catching up on badges
Thanks again everyone, especially Homer
Pam, I am thrilled for you! Homer saved the day!!!!! I knew he would!

Your very welcome. O0 I'm happy things are running for you. Now get to work on those badges! 8) :P
Ok, I bought thunderpopper, entered the password that was sent to me. It worked just fine. Then I closed it. The next time I went to use it, it said the trial period had ended and I needed to register it. I wrote and got a new password, worked fine until I closed it. Now it is saying that I need to register again.
I have deleted and downloaded again, got a new password from Oscar. It works until I close it. It keeps resetting to unregistered.
Other helpers work just fine. I am using winxp, 32 bit color, sun java and smooth font is not checked.
So far I have not had an answer from the badge help people as to what is causing the password not to stick.
Can anyone help?
thanks

Grrrrr.....Its Doing That Again >:(
folks - i suggest you open a new post for yourself and ask for tech help
the people here are great and really sorted me out - but they probably think of my post as solved (which it is for me)
good luck and ty again to all who helped me
Pam
For everyone...
You should have MSVM rather than Sun Java. Go to the Club Center page to download it. Run Windows update afterwards. Go to Tools / Internet Options / Advanced and scroll half way down. Uncheck all the Sun options and check all the sun ones.
Abc Monkey, did you try redownloading the program again?
