Hello, first I would like to say that for some time I have been coming here to look around and have done several of the tutorials - thank you Kirupa, this is a very nice site, your tutorials are so clear and easy to understand and have been very helpful to me
The reason why I am posting here is that I would very much appreciate any information on how to view swf files on media such as floppies or cdr’s etc. because I’ve been surprised by how many problems my friends are having looking at the game I made.
You see, I made a small game and put in on floppies and handed it to my friends. Most of them can’t see the swf file at all :O! I use a PC. If I put a swf file on a floppy disk and then give to one friend who has a Mac, will she be able to see the swf? I thought I would ask before giving her a copy.
My other friends who already have the floppy all own PC’s and many can’t see the swf on the floppy. Someone told me that I should always clothe my swf’s on the floppy in html so they automatically play thru the recipient’s browser. Is that true? Is there no other solution?
I thought that by telling my friends, when their PC prompted for what program to open the SWF file with, to just specifiy their browser, but that doesn’t seem to work for many of them, which really surprised me. I don’t understand why it’s not working
Does anyone know of a sure-fire way lol how to tell people to open swf files that are on a floppy (or cdrom, etc.)? I guess most people see swf’s via the web or emails. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me, very much appreicated !
