Flash Projector opens .swf no visual only audio

AltWorld · 06-06-2015, 08:26 PM

I'm very new to Ubuntu and I want to be able to run .swf's file's (A game called Realm of the mad god) I use Wine to open the flash projector and then run the .swf. I get a black screen with audio. How do I fix this. I've tried everything on the forums and nothing seems to work any help would be appreciated. I'm currently running Ubuntu 14.04 32 Bit

Have you tried playing the SWF files with Firefox?

Or you could probably convert them using an excellent program called Handbrake.

When I try to drop the SWF file into firefox it tries to open it, but it wants to use videos(I get the option to open with flash player, but that doesn't work) how do I stop this?

Yes interesting that - I get asked to load shockwave, although flash works on my Firefox (you need to load the appropriate package).

Any flash files I get normally have a .flv "extension" and can be played with vlc.
