We have had a few players have problems either loading Flash Games or having problems with the games crashing. We have done much research and have found a few helpful links.

Hello Selfdefiant and everybody,
I need some help and I have a few questions (again :) )
First of all I'd like to thank you the links.
I checked my PC and theoretically it's okay. The Flash and NPAPI both are 15 version (automatically updated). I use Firefox (automaticaly updated).
I had to reload the game yesterday twice because it stopped (auto save worked :) ) Later, while I was playing, the game refilled itself ???.
Another problem is that I can use the forum hardly. Especially during the live game. It's loading slowly, at least for me. I was able to say hello to the others yesterday. Is it possible that's because of the distance, or perhaps we are many at the same time? Maybe there are a lot of data on this site?
BTW, the one of links says shut off the Anti-virus program. In fact, it makes the PC slow but is it really good thing to turn off it? I mean, you need something protection, right?
Thanks for help or any tips.

I'm trying to make the site load faster and yes, when there are several people on the site it is slower. Now about shutting off the antivirus, it should be ok as long as you remember to turn it back on! ;)
Again, thanks for the help and you're trying to help us. :)
I recently changed the script that loads the game. I think it might have fixed everyone's problems. If you were having problems and can now play, please let me know!

Would you mind checking the game on Yizzim? http://www.yizzim.com/Spooky-Island-Survival-Escape-Day-4.php
If the game works good there, I know what the problem is. :)
I was able to get through that game with no problem.
Thanks
Thanks for letting me know. It's the in game ad causing it. I am using a different ad provider on Yizzim.
Hello Selfdefiant....
Having problems with all the games. They load up just fine, but then crash mid-way thru... or most times sooner. What could be the problem? You are my favorite game site! And I really miss playing your games. :(
Any thoughts as to what is causing this?
Any help would be appreciated....
Thanks :)

I'm not quite sure what causes this. Can you try to play the latest game on Yizzim? We have a different advertising network there, that could be the problem.

Thank you Selfdefiant! Yizzim worked fine. :) However, I'm back on the melting-mindz site now, and it's working fine again. So, don't know what that was all about before! ??? Lol!!
Anyway, just glad I didn't loose your site all together. I love your games, and will not be without them! :) Thanks for making my game playing so much fun!

That's great news! I wish I knew exactly what it was so I could fix it because I would!!
SD first thank you for all your attention to our need to play a smooth game. I too have been having problems playing games on this site and getting on the forum lately. But it only with melting-mindz.com site for some reason. I do not experience game crashing or lagging or intrusive hostile Ads takeover with the games on ODD Soul site. Do you know why? Also, this issue on melting-mindz site started recently, and it's seems to be getting worse. Some days I just avoid the site, which I don't like to do..but the adverse affects takes away from my enjoying your games. Also, I check my computer -all updates are in place...and like I said it's with this site that I experience problems.

I'm not sure, I haven't made any changes. You are a premium member, you shouldn't be seeing any ads while playing anyway. :) I will try to see why this is happening!
There is so much junk running on the site! Ads play without being invoked and cannot be closed. Of course the game hangs.
Like Storm... I, too, am having the exact same problems! And, like Storm said, it is just on the Melting-Mindz site. And I have also checked my computer for updates.
Glad to know it's not just me having these problems! So far, I found Yizzim to be without the problem that Melting-Mindz has. Hope you can get it fixed SD! :)
SD as always thank you for all you do. I have one question, how and where do I go to turn off Ads? I search under profile and did not find it, must have overlook it. I really hope you find a solution to the problem soon. :)

I didn't realize I had to turn them off. :) They should be off now. :)
I just posted this to escapegames24, so I'll post it here: I can no longer play Selfdefiant's games, which breaks my heart! My IE will not load the flash player, which is not the fault of my IE. I even downloaded Firefox for the sole purpose of playing his games and that worked for a while. However, I'm getting so many script errors from Melting Mindz that it is now locking up my brand new "cat daddy" computer to the point that if I leave the game up for a few minutes while cooking supper, for instance, that I have to come back and reboot. That's not good. I wish I could tell him this situation myself. I know a lot of other users are experiencing this also, considering what I'm reading in the walkthroughs. He's an awesome developer and I would hate to discontinue playing his games. I've had no problem until a few months ago, but having my computer lock up because of script errors is just not worth my time. Please make him aware of my complaint. I'd hate to lose taking part in his talent.
And that's where I am at this point. I should not have to correct this. If so many people are having an issue with this, it's no fault of their own, but the fault of this website. There's more going on outside of the play box, than on the inside of the play box. Maybe the ads and other scripts on this website are too advanced for the common user, much less advanced computer systems such as mine. Adding game play to all of that is the problem. I'd HATE, HATE, HATE to lose my Selfdefiant games wholeheartedly, but if my computer keeps locking up, I'll have to quit Melting-Mindz altogether. That would be extremely disappointing.
The problem is partly that users who use Internet Explorer will have problems because there are settings that have to be adjusted. I have never had a problem playing any of my games and 90% of the other players haven't had any problems. I wish I knew what was causing some of you problems but I don't know. I am using the newest version of Flash to make games. If you can't play on Melting-Mindz, try Yizzim.com or Oddsoul.com
Please realize that this is not happening to very many people and I am trying to figure it out just the same.
i too cannot play your games on IE due to script errors. i downloaded Google Chrome and it works just fine. i think it is IE that is messed up. i heard IE got hacked a few months ago and it has never been the same since. my computer is fairly new, and Google Chrome works great for your games. i don't do ANYTHING on IE anymore cuz it messes up my computer every time. i hope this helps everyone. ;D
Thanks for confirming that! I knew it had something to do with IE. :)
you are welcome. i really hope this helps those who are having trouble. ;D
SD– I am on a big iMac and I have been having increasing difficulties loading game scenes. They have gotten much worse in the last few days, Today they are next to impossible, even older games on your site.
I cannot make it through the day without your games,,,,,,{my husband would like them to work better to shut me up!}
thanks, fiddlehead
Hello, SD! I love the games! I am not sure whether I like the dark spooky ones or the lush resort ones better!
I am having difficulty with your games crashing. It started when you put in the video ads. I became a premium member in an effort to avert this problem, but it didn't work.
Today I tried to play Lost Asylum, and without exaggerating, I had to restart the game 6 times before I ran out of leisure time to play. Autosave apparently isn't active on this game
I am completely in favor of advertisements, but these video ads are making me think twice before playing your games.
This is intended as positive feedback. Your produce wonderful games that I enjoy so much I am willing to pay for them! Everything was fine before you started the video ads.
Thanks for listening!

If you are premium, you have to play the games posted here in the Premium Members area of the forum. There are no ads in the games. Also every one of my games auto save. If it isn't, it's Flash Player on your computer. It could be due to using Internet explorer or your Flash Player settings. Every game works for me with and without ads using Chrome. Chrome updates Flash Player automatically. :)
Thank you SD! Now everything is working perfectly! Thank you for the help!
