Swf Player Mac Catalina

To do this, go to the right side of the screen if you are using the Windows version, in 'Output Format:', or at the bottom tab if you are on Mac. Make sure you select the Web option from Format and then select SWF.

MOD is the name of tapeless video format used by JVC, Panasonic, and Canon in some models of digital camcorders. It is a file-based format which is stored on a random-access media. Video files that stored with MOD extension in MPEG-2 program stream container files are hardly playing on Mac with most popular media players, let alone edit them with video editing software. Yet, that doesn’t mean there is no way to play MOD files on Mac at all.

  1. The top contender on this list is none other than Elmedia Player.It has proven itself to be one of the top choices for Mac users. It comes out of the box with tons of highly-sought-after features like versatile file format support, so you can play AVI, FLV, SWF, WMV, MKV, MOV, MP3, and many more, without downloading additional codecs or plugins.
  2. I need to convert some simple Flash games into HTML before the Adobe Flash Player EOL, but can't seem to find an updated application to extract images and video from SWF that can run on MacOS Catalina.
  3. Gamification and badges. SWF Compilation Failed (Mac Captivate 2019). (newest one that is ok for Catalina).

Latest Package

Download Beta 2019-12-15:

Changelog:

2019-12-15: Added 'wmode':'direct' to the default SWFObject parameters. This fixes certain 3D Flash games which previously did not work properly.

2019-12-14: First beta available!

Installation Instructions

  1. Download and unzip the latest package using the link above.
  2. Double-click StartFlashpoint.command to open Flashpoint.
    • Do not forget this step! You must use StartFlashpoint.command, otherwise Flashpoint will not work properly.

Troubleshooting

If Flashpoint does not work after installation, follow the steps below:

  1. Click the Apple menu and open System Preferences.
  2. Click 'Security & Privacy,' then click the 'Privacy' tab.
  3. Click 'Full Disk Access'.
  4. Click the lock icon and enter your password to make changes. Then click the + button under the list of apps to add Terminal to the list.
  5. Click the lock icon again to save your changes. You should see Terminal in the list of allowed apps, as shown below.

Flash EOL Screen

If you see the Flash Player EOL information screen when you try to play a game, that means that SeaMonkey is loading your installed Flash Player plugin instead of the plugin that is bundled with Flashpoint. To fix the problem, uninstall Flash Player from your Mac and restart Flashpoint. Games should work again in SeaMonkey.

Swf Player Mac Catalina 10.15

MacOS Catalina and Big Sur

Because Flashpoint's applications are from an 'unidentified developer,' if you're using Catalina or Big Sur, you'll need to approve each application before it can run. Open your system preferences, click 'Security & Privacy', then allow each of the following applications to run: StartFlashpoint.command, Flashpoint Launcher, swfbbox, and SeaMonkey.

Because Adobe Director Projectors are 32-bit applications, SPR for Mac will not work on MacOS Catalina or Big Sur. This means that Flashpoint for Mac does not support Shockwave games on Catalina or Big Sur.

MacOS Big Sur (MacOS 11.0)

Flash applications have been successfully tested and are working. To use Flashpoint with Big Sur, a few modifications are required. Follow the steps below:

  1. Download SeaMonkey 2.53.4 for MacOS x64 from here: https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/
  2. Open Flashpoint Infinity's FPSoftware folder, then find the old 'SeaMonkey.app' there.
  3. Right-click the old SeaMonkey.app and click 'Show Package Contents.'
  4. Open the Contents folder, then within that folder, open the Resources folder.
  5. Find the folder called plugins and copy it.
  6. Find the new 'SeaMonkey.app' file that you downloaded by searching in Finder under 'This Mac'.
  7. Right-click the new 'SeaMonkey.app' and click 'Show Package Contents.'
  8. Open the Contents folder, then within that folder, open the Resources folder.
  9. Paste in the plugins folder that you copied earlier.
  10. Go back outside of the new 'SeaMonkey.app' package and copy it.
  11. Open Flashpoint Infinity's FPSoftware folder, then paste the 'SeaMonkey.app' file that you just copied. Replace the original file when prompted.

Apple Silicon Macs

To run Flashpoint on Macs with the new M1 chip, you'll need to install Rosetta by following these instructions. Once you've done that, follow the instructions in the previous sections to get Flashpoint working.

Installing Java

To add support for Java games, you'll need to install the Java Development Kit. Follow the steps below:

  1. Download JDK version 8u212 from here: https://github.com/frekele/oracle-java/releases/download/8u212-b10/jdk-8u212-macosx-x64.dmg
  2. Open the DMG file and run the installer. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the JDK.

Installing Wine

Running games in Wine is not yet supported, but we hope to add support for this in a future build. If you'd like to contribute to our efforts, you can download an installer here.

Technologies

Currently, only Flashpoint Infinity is available for Mac. However, as explained here, both PHP and Apache are included with MacOS. This means it should be fairly simple to create a Flashpoint Ultimate package for MacOS as well. Let us know in our Discord if you can help!

No equivalent to the Flashpoint Redirector currently exists for MacOS. MacOS also does not provide any native way to set per-application proxy settings. In Flashpoint for Mac, the proxy settings for each supported technology must be set separately. This rules out using the Flash projectors, since they do not have configurable proxy settings. In Flashpoint for Mac, all Flash games run in a browser.

The Flashpoint FAQ contains a list of all web game technologies ('Platforms') supported in the Windows version of Flashpoint. The Mac version currently supports a small subset of these platforms. This is explained in detail below. The list of supported platforms includes an unscientific estimate of the percentage of games supported by our method.

Supported Platforms

  • Flash: Supported using the SeaMonkey web browser, with a Flash plugin included. Games that use a Flash Player version other than 32 are not yet supported.
    • ~95% of games supported.
  • Shockwave: Supported with SPR for Mac. Because LeechProtectionRemovalHelp is only available for Windows, the majority of Shockwave games will not work properly.
    • ~30% of games supported.
    • Requires a 32-bit compatible OS; Catalina is not supported.
  • HTML5: Supported using the SeaMonkey web browser. WebAssembly support is enabled in Flashpoint's SeaMonkey profile, so it should be compatible with nearly all of the same games as Basilisk.
    • ~99% of games supported.
  • Java Applets: Supported natively using the JDK. Java in the browser is not supported yet.
    • ~99% of games supported.

Unsupported Platforms

  • Unity Web Player: Has not been attempted yet. We would need to track down the Mac builds of all 12 versions of Unity Web Player that we support on Windows. Needless to say, this would be a huge challenge.
  • PopCap Plugin: As far as we know, there is no version of PopCap Plugin for modern Macs.
  • Authorware Web Player: Authorware is incompatible with all Intel Macs.
  • GoBit Plugin: As far as we know, there is no version of GoBit Games Plugin for modern Macs.
  • Silverlight: Silverlight for Mac is available here, but as explained in this StackExchange answer, Microsoft Silverlight for Mac is 32-bit only, even though the Windows version has 64-bit and 32-bit versions. This is a problem because no major browser for MacOS has a 32-bit version, and MacOS Catalina drops support for 32-bit programs entirely. As such, Silverlight is unusable on Mac.
  • 3DVIA Player: As far as we know, there is no version of 3DVIA Player for modern Macs.
  • 3D Groove GX: 3D Groove is incompatible with all Intel Macs.
  • ActiveX: ActiveX is a Windows-only technology.
  • ShiVa3D: The Windows version of the ShiVa3D Player is available in the free ShiVa Web Edition; this is where we obtained it. However, no Mac version of the ShiVa Web Edition is currently available, so we haven't been able to find a Mac version of the ShiVa3D Player. It's possible that we could extract a Mac version of the player from a Mac version of a ShiVa3D game. Or maybe we could obtain the Mac runtime from the Windows version of ShiVa3D Web Edition, since it has the capability of publishing for Mac.

Launcher Issues

Swf player for mac

A number of Flashpoint Launcher issues affect the experience of using Flashpoint Launcher on MacOS. Unfortunately, none of our Launcher developers currently have access to a Mac, so updates for the Mac version of Flashpoint Launcher will not be available in the foreseeable future. We will be unable to release a Mac version of Flashpoint 7.0 until a new version of the Launcher is built for MacOS. If you have access to MacOS and are able to build Flashpoint Launcher, please let us know!

The current issues with the Mac version of Flashpoint Launcher are listed below.

  • Errors are shown in the log when services are missing from the services.json. These services are unnecessary for Flashpoint on Mac, so the errors can be ignored.
  • Flashpoint Launcher cannot find its own Version file, even if it is present in the Launcher's folder and app package.
  • The Theme dropdown menu on the Config tab does not work properly. To select a theme, you must manually type the path to the theme's CSS file.
  • A popup appears if the user attempts to start a Windows executable from Flashpoint. This popup tells the user to install Wine, and points them to the Linux Support page, even though the Launcher is running on Mac.
  • If a shell script is specified in execs.json as an alternative to a batch script, the Launcher will attempt to launch the shell script defined for Linux, even if a different shell script is defined for Darwin (MacOS).
  • Flashpoint Launcher attempts to load the hidden resource forks of certain files as separate files. These files are not visible in the MacOS Finder, and have filenames beginning with ._.
    • If any Platform XML has a resource fork, all of the Platform XMLs will fail to load, causing a 'No games found' error.
    • If any localization JSON file has a resource fork, a 'NotValidJSON' error will appear in the logs.
  • When Wine is started from Flashpoint Launcher, it uses >70% CPU for several minutes without ever starting the intended executable. This is despite Wine working fine when started from the terminal. This issue needs to be investigated and solved before Flashpoint can support launching games through Wine.
  • By default, Flashpoint Launcher will attempt to read and modify config.json and preferences.json inside its own app package. Since Mac applications are not allowed to modify their own app packages, this will fail. For this reason, Flashpoint Launcher must be opened with a shell script command StartFlashpoint.command. This script sets the current directory to the Flashpoint Launcher folder so that the Launcher accesses the config.json and preferences.json in the correct location. However, this unusual way of opening the Launcher may be the cause of the previously mentioned Wine bug.

Swf On Mac

Other Notes

  • Some keyboard controls such as the spacebar or WASD keys may not work in some games. This is a known problem with the NPAPI Flash plugin on MacOS. We plan to resolve this problem in the next build of Flashpoint for Mac by using the PPAPI plugin instead.
  • Flash games with URLs pointing to filenames with special characters will not work. This is because nosamuEmbedSWF.sh does not properly handle special characters when it converts URLs to paths, so it cannot copy the game's HTML to the correct location in htdocs.
  • Some Shockwave games may not close when you quit them from the menu. If this occurs, click inside the Message Window next to the game. Then type quit and press Enter to close the game.
  • Flashpoint for Mac uses exec mappings to determine what native executable to run based on the specified Windows application path. For example, flashplayer_32_sa.exe is mapped to nosamuEmbedSWF.sh for MacOS. To add more exec mappings, navigate to Flashpoint's Data folder and open execs.json in a text editor. The exec mappings use 'darwin' to refer to MacOS.
  • Flashpoint for Mac uses swfbbox to determine the width and height of an SWF file. swfbbox is part of the swftools homebrew package. To install swftools, first install homebrew. Then type brew install swftools in the terminal.
  • Flashpoint for Mac requires that PHP and cURL are enabled on your system. These components should be enabled by default.

Packaging Flashpoint for Mac

Here are some steps to keep in mind when packaging Flashpoint for Mac. This assumes that you are using the current package as a base and modifying it.

Swf Player Mac Catalina Patcher

  • You can follow these instructions to update Flashpoint's XMLs to the latest version.
  • You can follow these instructions to update Flashpoint Router to the latest version.
  • Use update-spr.sh in the FPSoftware folder to update SPR to the latest version. To get the latest version of SPR for Mac, see SPR for Mac.
  • If you would like to distribute a modified SeaMonkey profile, be sure to clear the cache, cookies, and other data. In SeaMonkey, click Tools -> Clear Private Data.
  • If you would like to add a plugin to SeaMonkey, first install the plugin normally. Then, follow these steps:
    1. Navigate to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins in Finder and copy the files for the plugin you want to add.
    2. Navigate to Flashpoint's FPSoftware folder. Right-click SeaMonkey.app and choose 'Show Package Contents.'
    3. Inside the app package, navigate to /Contents/Resources/plugins. Paste the plugin files that you copied in Step 1.
  • Before running or distributing Flashpoint, you should run the dot_clean command inside the Flashpoint folder to remove resource forks. Flashpoint Launcher may not work properly if Flashpoint files have resource forks, as explained in Launcher Issues.
