We still have a Discord server, come talk to us! Want to advertise on e? Click here! TL;DR: Nothing will change for any already existing files, we will be keeping those around indefinitely. What will change is that we will no longer be accepting new flash files after January Long Answer: The death of flash is purely related to both the browser plugins as well as the continued development of the creator programs.
The end user can still download the older versions just fine and use them locally, there just won't be any new updates to either of those. Since the Adobe Flash Player parts are compliant with Windows 10 they will likely continue to work natively on Windows for a decade or two at least. Click "Download the Flash Player projector" and save the executable to your computer Optional: Move the executable to a directory that you're less likely to empty on accident so you don't lose the thing 3.
Run the executable, click "File", click "Open Optional: You can set the projector as default for opening all flash files by following the below steps: 1. Right click a flash file 2. Select "Open With In the newly opened dialog box click "More Apps" 4. Scroll down to "Look for another App on this PC" and click it 5. Navigate to your Flash Player Projector executable and select it 6.
Click "Open". All flash files should now have their icon replaced from a white rectangle to the Flash Player icon, and when double clicked directly open the file in the projector. Updated 10 months ago. Important information for all instructions: Flash Player saves everything in. Inside are all save files, sorted by "website" you played on.
Open the aforementioned path by copying the link in the code block into your File Explorer's address bar and open the single folder therein. All savegames must now go into the localhost folder. Once pasted in they should show up just fine when next starting the projector. Updated by anonymous almost 2 years ago.
The original adobe flash player projector is perfect and should be preferred above any third party creation that may or may not actually work as expected. As NMNY said, it's best to use actual Flash Player for now, as all the open source projects that are meant to replace it aren't production ready yet, and won't be for a long time. One thing I remember being even default in Ubuntu over 10 years ago was Gnash as this was open source alternative on offer as the OS did not ship with any closed source software or support by default, even MP3 playback required installing the restricted extras package.
All I remember from that is that almost literally nothing worked and solution was always to install proper flash. Lightspark seems to derive from Gnash. Also similar to Gnash, they seem to focus on browser plugin support and websites primarily rather than flash file compatibility and they have compatibility still for sites like speedtest which has already moved on to HTML5 ages ago.
Open source versions will definitely be required in the future for maintained security, performance, archival, etc. You'll just hinder yourself by using other solutions at this point one way or another. I think an ideal scenario would be to try to get more users to screen-capture non-interactive Flash posts and re-upload them as webm files, if possible. Since most modern browsers support webm out-of-the-box, it would mean that the content could still be enjoyed by many users without them having to install the standalone Flash Player projector.
Anyone who wants to have flash support indefinitely just needs to keep an old version of their browser installed. I don't plan on updating my browser once Flash support ends. As long as the quality is acceptable and the resolution high enough I doubt very many people would care. I use screen recorders a lot and I don't usually notice very many problems when playing back video of programs I have recorded.
That's a pretty bad idea, old browser versions tend to have a lot of security vulnerabilities. If you captured losslessly then used something like ffmpeg to convert to webm, with the right settings you'd barely tell the difference. There's also a program called JPEXS decompiler you can use to extract video from flash files directly. You'd still need to convert to webm, but it can be useful for removing a game UI or something like that.
Converting what is generally a vector graphics format to a basic video is a terrible idea. A massive flash content website from back in the day whose name currently escapes me did just that - several years ago. They are now stuck with medium resolution at best which was 'high resolution' back then videos of what would have otherwise been scalable to whatever resolution the viewer wanted, and they ended up converting some interactive media as well, ruining what interactivity it had.
Pretty much this. Only problem I see with screencaps is framerates. You might not be able to match the original framerate and depending on your machine, you can end up with frame drops which then are at the end encode. Newgrounds Swivel gets rid of this issue and has lossless AVI capture just need to use -c:v rawvideo with ffmmpeg input file for it to work , just make sure that the capture is set to same resolution flash originally was to avoid scaling artifacting with bitmaps.
Best approach with newer flash files which are essentially just a video is definitely use decompilers. Altough do take note that some artists use flash to insert e. Last several years I haven't seen proper vector using flash files at all, but they were really essentially what was flash years ago. This is also why telling how to convert flash files is pain, because no single flash file is same as other, they can be done with almost any way or contain almost any files.
Many users are having problems even knowing if flash is using vectors or bitmaps. With vectors I have been instructing those converting them into videos to either use double the original or p.
Because even mobile phones these days have p so when original vector flash file was sharp as hell, converting it with same resolution to video now it's blurry with video being upscaled by the player.
This is also why with e the ruling is that we do accept filetype conversions with animations, however original is the one we want the most and conversions should be set as child posts to original.
Additionally I'm trying to enforce that quality of the conversions is of really high quality so we aren't getting blurry messes with screencap UI showing and framerates being slideshow. I guess that makes sense, because normies are still downloading the goddamn android APK to install on their phones.
OK, so what can we do? It's dead fileformat that's being buried by its creator. We are already on stance that we won't delete old uploads and still accept new uploads even if format is deprecated.

All you Designed to add extra controls to the Ruffle runs natively on all modern operating systems as a standalone application, and on all modern browsers through the use of WebAssembly.
Leveraging the safety of the modern browser sandbox and the memory safety guarantees of Rust, we can confidently avoid all the security pitfalls that Flash had a reputation for. Ruffle puts Flash back on the web, where it belongs - including browsers on iOS and Android! Designed to be easy to use and install, users or website owners may install the web version of Ruffle and existing flash content will "just work", with no extra configuration required.
Ruffle will detect all existing Flash content on a website and automatically "polyfill" it into a Ruffle player, allowing seamless and transparent upgrading of websites that still rely on Flash content.
Ruffle is an entirely open source project maintained by volunteers. We're all passionate about the preservation of internet history, and we were drawn to working on this project to help preserve the many websites and plethora of content that will no longer be accessible when users can no longer run the official Flash Player.
If you would like to help support this project, we welcome all contributions of any kind - even if it's just playing some old games and seeing how well they run. You'll need to make sure your web server is configured to serve. If you visit websites that have Flash content but aren't using Ruffle, or you want to ensure you're using the latest and greatest version of Ruffle on every website, then our browser extension is the perfect thing for you! Until our first release, we currently only ship a signed browser extension for Firefox.
The other extensions are unsigned. To use these, first download the appropriate one for your browser from our downloads , and then install it manually. If you want to run Flash content on your computer without a browser in-between, we have native applications that will take full advantage of your GPU and system resources to get those extra frames when playing the original Meat Boy.
