Title: "get adobe flash" instead of loading game
Post by: Trig on October 15, 2020, 07:24:31 PM
Regarding Melting-Mindz games only, such as Red Asylum, Haunted Asylum, and many others.

I got this message in August/September, thought I'd solved it, but now the issues is back. It is across computers and browsers and I tried VPN.

Flash is definitely installed as I can choose allow and the World Escape Games globe starts spinning. I have tried what this thread says, which may only have coincidentally have worked: http://melting-mindz.com/forum/index.php?topic=509.0

I've uninstalled flash, reinstalled, rebooted. Doesn't work on Windows 10 and 8.

Reading about php issues everything talks about serverside errors. Back a few months all the games started working again. Maybe there's an issue there? It's always the ones with php at the end of the address.

I've been replaying all the asylum games and enjoying them. (Could you please make them a downloadable package as flash will be gone in a couple months?)

Thanks,
Trig

I really don't know how to add a screenshot.

I use Chrome and whenever I close my browser and reopen it I have to enable Flash on the top left of the address bar. I am working on new ways to display games when Flash goes away. :)

This appears different than allowing flash. The flash ads work. Flash is enabled (every time) but the games aren't even there.

Can you play the games here in the forum? http://melting-mindz.com/forum/index.php?topic=3240

I can play this Halloween game, yes. I can't even find Red Asylum by searching through "home" on this site, but am finding it here:
http://melting-mindz.com/games6.php

Maybe some games have been removed?

There was a problem with the forum a while back and I had to reload it. Not all of the games are in the forum any more. If you have problems playing games with the php extension, try changing the php to swf and it should work. Here's an example. http://melting-mindz.com/Ski-Trip-Escape.php change to http://melting-mindz.com/Ski-Trip-Escape.swf

Changing from php to swf worked on eerie asylum (same issue, http://melting-mindz.com/eerie_asylum.swf), but on red asylum and haunted asylum it just opened a blank page in Firefox. In Chrome it immediately downloaded but had an error when opening it to play.

In case this helps, you have to click in the URL bar as SD said, but make sure you click the shield to allow Flash, not the info button. Or try a less "Googly" version of Chrome, like Ungoogled Chromium or Vivaldi. For me, Seamonkey, Basilisk & Pale Moon also work, as does Firefox ESL, which I'm on now.
Ungoogled Chromuim: https://www.techspot.com/downloads/7181-ungoogled-chromium.html
Vivaldi: https://vivaldi.com/

@Persee

I was excited to see this, but the page is a 404 now.
As usual when I am late to the table all the dessert is gone :(
