jennoying_sparkle 6 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Oh no! Which internet browser do you use to play neopets on? Did you update your browser recently? I just double checked with my chrome browser and could still play, but I didn't update anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angeló 4147 Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Chrome updates automatically for me but I just tried Chrome, Torch & Brave and it won't run on either one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Secre 536 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Yep, mines out too. Pity it's a shared computer or I'd be tempted by the date trick! Angeló 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You could switch it just to do the flash stuff, then set it back? I'll not leave mine set on yesterday's date other than for that. I've been expecting a bunch of stuff to be switched today, but now I realise that may be me being foolish? TNT can always let us down, after all, no matter how low our expectations. *~*;; ikids and Aranel 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The dudes at Andkon Arcade can be of assistance if you want to play Flash games (and Shockwave ones as well) in 2021. You'll need Pale Moon browser and a non-time bombed version of Flash (version 32.0.0.371 is the last known Flash version before Adobe time-bombed the Flash player in all releases made after June 2020). Here's their guide. Angeló and jellysundae 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've been so stressed about doing all the flash games the last few days, especially the ones I'm not so good at. Hopefully with this guide, it'll buy me a little more time to play.

MysteryAF 776 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Unpopular opinion, but... this was long overdue. Flash is horribly outdated to the point of it being a security risk. Neopets should have been updated long ago, rather than moments before the deadline. Now many of the site features aren't working properly because of that. ikids and Aranel 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now many of the site features aren't working properly because of that. I don't think that's an unpopular opinion at all. I think the people are more upset with all the non-working changes rather than the end of Flash itself. The only reason I'm looking to get back onto flash is because almost none of the games have updated and I still need the avatars. For most some of the games, once I have the avatar, I never want to see that game again lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jellysundae 6112 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I come bearing more helpfulness! A fellow ninja has put together a REALLY useful petpage. Avatar game tips, Flash workaround & non-Flash links for some Flash games: http://www.neopets.com/~5T4RRY I'm just doing the coconut shy at the moment. This is great! No need to have to mute Elroy, I can't even SEE him! HOHOHO, the laugh's on you, mister! >:3 Angeló 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angeló 4147 Posted 14 hours ago Author Share Posted 14 hours ago Although I blocked stupid Chrome from Automatic Updates , it did and now Flash options are gone forever Qasalan Expellibox just shows me this now (even with date change) But I can see 5TA4RRY added it to the list ... jellysundae 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
