Daeval Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Just go here to get the latest Flash and Shockwave players. Click the green puzzle pieces and FireFox will basically handle the rest. Cake, I say. http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/welcome/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmvogel Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Actually...it didn't handle it. I clicked the puzzle piece but once it downloaed it, the games still didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 what's that game's name anyway!! link me to it and I bet mine will work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmvogel Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Sure...if I go to Macromedia and download the program, I'm sure the Arcade section games would work. But in the instance where I click on a game (doesn't matter, choose from any of the 500+) it shows a puzzle icon. When you click it, it begins to get the flash plugin....only thing is it doesn't work once it's finished dowloading!! Those Firefox programmers screwd that up....and this is a new version?

Gryph Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 This doesn't seem to be a wide spread problem otherwise there would be more occurances of this and they would have fixed it by now. Try uninstalling your Shockwave and then try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daeval Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Yeah, what gryph said. They work for me. Try uninstalling shockwave from the control panel. And in what way do they "not work?" Does it still say you're missing the plugin or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmvogel Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I'm not doing this on my home comp, but in a lab. It downloads the plugin but it doesn't take effect.....its pointless anyhow. I just wanted to see how good of a browser it was, and someone had installed it on the comp i was using. I'm not that impressed with it anyhow....I'll stick to the crappy IE.

Sturmvogel Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 No..that's not the case. As I said before, Firefox was INSTALLED on the computer. I frequently install other programs I use as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
