FlashPatcher VS ruffle

I'm stubbornly sticking with classic, period, until the end of time. However, you might have some luck with this or this. Read carefully, consider what you want to do in regards to your browser, your browser's ability to work with flash, etc.

So far, I have found FlashPatcher, a tool that removes the kill switch from Flash Player 32.0.0.465, along with links to the installers.

If you have a way to get access to a desktop computer that can run a browser that still allows flash and/or run a program that will remove the "time bomb" from flash player and use the "classic" (flash) based customization, you'll be able to dress up your pet normally.

Options are 1) various workarounds to trick Flash into working on your computer, 2) run this GitHub program to remove the "time bomb" from Flash on your computer*, or 3) Use a browser that will still allow Flash, I've heard one called PaleMoon recommended on this subreddit.

I was able to get Flash working for me on my desktop PC without messing with time settings by using this github program, but I will probably have to go to an old browser eventually once Firefox ESR starts actively blocking Flash.

Waterfox and Basilisk are browsers that still support Flash. You can install Flash with this https://github.com/KuromeSan/FlashPatcher/releases or use this old version of Flash https://archive.org/download/flashplayerarchivedversions2/357/fp_32.0.0.344_archive.zip

How about the same old flash emulated in wasm, so no plugin.

Use those same great adobe tools in a vm.

If it used Flash, Ruffle would've picked them up (great addon if you haven't heard of it already: https://ruffle.rs/)

Looks like this site uses Windows Media Player embeds to play WMV files. I don't know of any big addon that makes those types of embeds work, if the server for the embedded protocol is still even alive.

Thankfully, the videos have been mirrored to Youtube.

Looks like this uses Flash (SWF) for interactive diagrams. Luckily ruffle.rs [1] works.

Some of you may know ruffle (https://ruffle.rs).

The memories…

I often wondered what would happen to those wonderful Orisinal mini games after Flash's death, without actually checking out the site. Would Ferry Halim find the time to port them to "HTML5"? Would they just… disappear forever?

It turns out that they know run in Ruffle[1], a Rust/WASM based Flash Player emulator I've never heard of (or forgotten about). The handful of them that I have tested work flawlessly.

shrug It finds its uses. It's just not that overstated.

sandspiel is quite popular and is built using WASM: https://sandspiel.club/

Ruffle (the "make Flash run safely" tool) - https://ruffle.rs/

Ableton's Learning Synths - https://learningsynths.ableton.com/

etc etc. It's just hard to tell when something is using WASM when it "just works" and is indistinguishable from optimized JavaScript

I was amazed that the site still runs, apparently still using the same engine.

But it seems that it was a flash site (of course), and archive.org seems to replace Flash Player with "Ruffle" [1]. Either that, or someone of Tobin's team replaced Flash with Ruffle >= 2019.

Out of curiosity a couple months ago I wondered if I could play my old Proximity flash game on Newgrounds from the browser within the Quest 3 VR headset, and it worked great!

That led me to do a little searching, and I discovered that originally the game didn't work in Ruffle, as I apparently did something with the play game button that wasn't normal. But someone put a fix in it back in 2020[1] in order to get my game working again. That was pretty neat. Felt kind of nice that people still cared enough about my old game to make sure it still works in an emulator.

Still working on a more in-depth sequel (using Monogame), and I'm way overdue to make a new web version of the original. Might knock that out once I get closer to getting the sequel out there.

i believe it's using Ruffle[0] and that's already happened[1]
