I was using SIM and finally got a chance to set up AIM... and started with this contribution though I had already downloaded and looked at the original ones.

In using the "consolidated" contribution, I was getting an error response from Authorizenet... #92:  The gateway no longer supports the requested method of integration.

So I checked their API with the fields designated in the file:  authorizenet_direct.php and found one missing... probably got mistakenly deleted.  So I added:

x_relay_response => 'FALSE',

(anywhere will work... I put it after x_Delim_Data since that's where it was in the documentation).

Also, as a note to others who have already been using authorizenet.  BE SURE to admin control panel... /modules/payment ... and make the credit card module inactive (uninstall it) BEFORE updating the files... then upload the new files and install it (turn it on).  

THIS LAST POINT IS IMPORTANT.  

I believe most of the problems people have with modules (payment, shipping, order total) have to do with getting the files out of sync with the database config parameters that are used by them.  When you "turn on" a module, it reads the file and makes entries into the database.  If you then replace the file with a new one with other parameters, uninstalling it or just running it will cause errors.  When this happens, you'll also often NOT see the red/green buttons to turn features on/off... all you'll see is the path and name of the module file.
