FFR Standalone!

Re: FFR Standalone!

move to r2/r3

I don't see why I have to move to r2/r3. Legacy has worked for me for a long time up until now. I prefer using the Legacy engine also having been used to that since I joined FFR in 2007. It worked fine before so there must be a problem that can be resolved to fix it, be it with my own computer or the site itself.

Re: FFR Standalone!

Have you tried clearing the cache in Internet Explorer? that's the browser that the standalone uses for temp storage of files, so if there is an issue with songs being cached wrong it's probably stored in the IE temp files. Clear your IE cache and see if that resolves anything.. if not come back here and I'll see if I can come up with anything else.

Re: FFR Standalone!

I have gone ahead and cleared the cache and redid the standalone. I'll post tomorrow stating if that did in fact fix the problem.

As I stated, I could already resolve the problem by redoing the standalone so if it continues to work for more than a day after having cleared the cache as well then that makes my problem considered "solved". Thanks for the help.

No problem, I hope it does solve the issue. Not sure what else it would be at this point honestly.

Re: FFR Standalone!

Just popping back in to say that my standalone finally works without me having to redo the whole thing. I was skeptical at first as it just seemed to start happening out of nowhere but I suppose that clearing the cache is the answer to all.

Re: FFR Standalone!

I can't get Dragonsfury engine working on R^3. It says the "Legacy" engine has problems loading, but I am using the R^3 xml file lol Is it just broken?

Re: FFR Standalone!

I don't know how I didn't see that question prior. I'm not privy to Linux usage so I can't give you a solid answer but this is where I get the updated links from:

http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

there could potentially be a flash player standalone archived that will run if the current one doesn't, so maybe look into that? I wish I could help but I'm running a Windows computer so it's hard to troubleshoot without knowing the potential issues/solutions.


Unrelated: I updated the OP with download links to Flash 12, which seems to have been released as the current version as of 1/14/14. Feedback on whether or not it seems to play FFR better is welcome, I'm not expecting much as Flash 11 was never that spectacular for anything but perhaps R^3.

Re: FFR Standalone!

The thing about Linux is that Flash isn't being updated anymore and 64bit Flash wasn't really ever released properly for Linux. You'll generally need to install some sort of 32bit support for your distro (look up multiarch, or ia32-libs).

(the above statement isn't entirely true, Linux Chrome does come with a fully up-to-date 64bit Flash 12 but there's no standalone option there)

Re: FFR Standalone!

Someone was talking about issues with Chrome OS the other day, if someone finds a way to make standalones usable on Chrome OS, they should post it here, then Ill PM OP about adding it, cause I like to this thread in my MP sticky and having everything as up to date as possible would be cool.

The whole point of Chrome OS is that it's literally just Chrome. "Standalone" in that case is the same as running it normally in your browser, so there's no such thing on that platform. You could potentially get it running, but you'd have a much better time just installing a full Linux distro instead - that's generally asking a bit much just for FFR.

Re: FFR Standalone!

Would is still suffer from the same performance issues as Windows causes? As well another issue with this is that a user could not even load R^3 on Chrome OS, which is why I'm curious of standalone possibilities, in the event that standalone IS impossible and other elements on the page cause lag would opening the .swf in the "browser" on its own possibly solve these issues? Im sure it wont be a broadly used OS, but we should brainstorm performance and whatnot for that OS as well :P
