Joanie-wa Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 Honestly, i have already installed the shockwave plug-in, I have tried everything i can think of, and it won't work for me. It starts perfectly, you know, with the "play game", "instructions", all that hullabaloo, but when i press "Play Game", it brings me to this screen that shows the logo and an image of a smiley going down a chute, but it won't do anything else. Help, please. :crying: And also, sorry about my atrocious run-on sentences. Quote
Unstream Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 Shockwave just never works for me. Period. I always get this weird error message every time I try to play something that uses Shockwave. Quote
Xepha Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 One question : Under what OS are you trying to play? Quote
ChaoticFission Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 same for me btw: im on windows xp using firefox 3. shockwave always errors out for me. Quote
The Darkest Faerie Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Simple solution for me. Don't play it. :P I like shockwave games, but The Last Smiley isn't my thing. I'm more of a Hannah and the Pirate/Ice Caves girl. :) I can't help you, I'm not that good with computers. Sorry. :( Quote
antiaircraft Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Well clearing your cache might help, but apart from that I don't think there's anything you can try. Shockwave isn't really a very reliable plug-in... Quote
Pirate Dante Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 If I recall, the shockwave isn't working on FF3, so if you want to play either use IE (I don't recommend, cause IE sucks, let's viruses in and sucks anyways) or get rid of FF3 and download FF2. Quote
Xepha Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Well I learned that these old shockwave games are not compatable with Intel Mac (which is what I'm using), although I've been able to use it on my mac before. Now I get a 'havok' error, which can't be installed on Mac. Shockwave would have replaced their 3D part in their latest version and unless games update to the newest stuff, it will continute to error here. Try to find out what is the exact error and google ;p. I am sure you will find infos about it. Quote

Would it work on Opera or Google Chrome? Cause I really don't want to get rid of FF3. Quote

antiaircraft Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Well Shockwave isn't even available for Linux anyway, so I haven't had to deal with it in aaages. :P I heard that it worked pretty well on Opera, but that was a long while ago so I don't know if that statement is valid now. Quote
