Open .swf file (flash game) [SOLVED]

#1 Post by Scorpion »

What is a good software to open a .swf file?
A flash game that I usually play in the browser.

Gnash SWF Viewer doesn' t work well the game is unplayable.

You could try the Flash Player Projector from Adobe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FlashPlayerStandalone

I downloaded "Download the Flash Player projector" from https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplay ... loads.html (link from the previous link), an .exe file.
After I set with winecfg the window version to XP, before it was 10, is working fine.

Is there some other package besides Gnash?

Why didn't you try the Linux version from the same link? You just had to scroll the page down a little more past the Windows version...
(the page links to Windows, GNU/Linux and Mac files for the plugin and the standalone player - look for "Download the Linux debugger and standalone players").

Right I tried the "Download the Flash Player Projector (64-bit)" (linux) and it works fine.
I totally missed the linux part.
