Hi Guys,
I’m having a real problem embedding a shockwave file for director.
First off I have established that a new version of Shockwave player came out earlier this year 2008 which seems to be the problem as it was working before that. So I first had to download a new version of this as when I tried to play my old (V8) embedded shockwave director game it told me I needed to install V11 player. This was slightly fiddly in itself (for Mac).
Then I tried to play the game and it is now coming up with a Director Player error saying…
“This application requires an Xtra (Havok Physics Scene) that either does not exist or failed to initialize properly. Please make sure the appropriate Xtras are in the Xtras folder(s)”.
When you click ok it then says…
“This Shockwave movie has errors that have caused playback problems. Please contact the author of this content regarding this problem. Shockwave is unable to continue.”
So I am stuck!
Is there something I can change in the embed code to get this working again? I have crawled the internet to find a solution but cant find it anywhere.
Only thing I can find is to add in the playerVersion ie <PARAM name=playerVersion value=10> but this is V8 I want to embed so it doesnt seem to make any difference.
Here is the link to the game… http://www.kelloggs.gr/kelloggsland/en/secretzone/cheetahchase/cheetahchase.html
Internet Explorer users may experience it playing but hanging on the “loading/checking” page. Not sure if this is a player version issue too?
Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks,
Andy
