I'm having a problem with Sonic the Hedgehog 2. I want to play it, but the game never loads when I try. Any help?

TotalSymphony : Is this the only game you are having an issue with? I just tried to load it myself and it worked fine. I noticed that the version you linked was a hack, have you tried to load the original to see if it works?

https://www.vizzed.com/play/sonic-the-hedgehog-2-gen-online-sega-genesis-4851-gamep

With regards to the hack you referenced, the file might have become corrupted when you tried to download it. You could try deleting the rom file from your Hard Drive. That way when you try to play the game again it will re-download the file.

TotalSymphony : Did you try both Emulators available for Genesis? (Gens and Mednafen)? Are you able to load any other Genesis/megadrive games?

Jordanv78 : Yes. I tried both of them. I'm kinda doubtful any other games would work, to be honest.

TotalSymphony : The reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to narrow down the problem. Are you only having issues with Genesis games? What happens when you try this game? https://www.vizzed.com/play/super-mario-bros-3-nes-online-nintendo-nes-684-game

With regards to the Genesis games. Do you get an error, or does the download just hang?

Also, what version of windows are you running? Browser?

Jordanv78 : Super Mario Bros 3 works just fine. As for the Genesis games, they never download.

I am using Windows 7 Professional, and I use Chrome (For when I'm not playing games here), and Firefox (For when I do play games.)

TotalSymphony :

Yeah this seems to be an issue for some people recently. I know that some users have had certain issues with 16 bit systems in the past that we haven't exactly narrowed down the cause of yet, but this more recent issue with Genesis in particular is strange.

tRIUNE : Any input on this Genesis issue that has been popping up more for some users lately?

TotalSymphony : Yeah those messages are pretty common when a rom doesn't load. The issue is finding the reason why since this only seems to be happening to SOME users.

I'm wondering if you revert back to an older version of the plugin, if Genesis will work for you. The issue there being that you won't be able to netplay while using the older version.

I just tried this.
GENS did not work for me but Mednafen did.

Did you click GENS then click play using Mednafen or did you click the mednafen link from the game page?

TotalSymphony : Just a quick question before I look into this, what operating system are you using?

EDIT: the reason I want to know the OS you're using is because I'm not having any problems with the Genesis system with either the Mednafen or Gens Play Links (using Windows 8.1).

drag00n365 : Okay I figured out the problem, but I don't know what's causing it.

The problem is clicking on the Mednafen Play Link 1st, and then clicking on the Gens Play Link makes the game unplayable. This problem existed with the NES Java emulators a while back where if you clicked the play link for vNES 1st, then the NESCafe link wouldn't work.

I think that problem is now fixed with the NES Java emulators, but the workaround was to delete cookies/temporary internet files/java cache/etc.

So in other words, clearing everything internet related to Vizzed and the Genesis system. And then click the Gens Play Link.
