What to do after the death of Flash?

[Wyand]

A good idea to send them a feedback. I sorta feel pvp wouldn't work either.

Edited my first post listing with all current options. anti or serp: can we sticky it somewhere? Like front page of elementscommunity.org?
Lot of guests arriving in blab and they often don't get a full answer about the possibilities.

Just tried rolling my clock back to 2020 and was able to log in and play on Firefox.

Hi @Wyand I used the CORS Unblock 0.1.7
Addon for Chrome and also with Ruffle.
Because console says it was a cors right Network Problem
Than the Saving-Funktion worked for me.
I hope that can Help you, too and PVP works also with it.
The Elements game Connetion Site
[www.elementsthegame.com/connections.html]
 says it should.

Hi aismael!

I don't use Chrome, but hopefully it can be helpful for Chrome users.
I checked how CORS works - could you elaborate on what options are useful?

Hey folks -

Connected with Wyand earlier and we thought these tips could be helpful for others

I use a Mac so I got around the flash problem by running the game using Edge - if you run the game with Edge, it will ask you if you want to run Flash and it's fairly simple to launch the game that way.

If you want to play Elements on mobile, which I did, the other trip is to run elements on Puffin app. It's a mobile browser that runs Adobe Flash in the Cloud so you can play Elements in Puffin.

Have fun all!

I read a post in chat which may be helpful to some.  As I am not computer savvy, there are some instructions which I don't understand, but I thought that it would be best to post here to hopefully be of help to some.

[04:52:39] ‹Guest-DuneScorpion-9ba53› well wanted to say, if people still want to play original element and not keep an old browser/flash install around, there is a workaround:
[04:52:56] ‹Guest-DuneScorpion-9ba53› First download this file (no install) https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/32/flashplayer_32_sa_debug.exe
[04:53:12] ‹Guest-DuneScorpion-9ba53› it's an old standalone flash that was used to debug programs.
[04:53:25] ‹Guest-DuneScorpion-9ba53› then open the source page of elements and download the SWF file (edit, here's the link: http://elementsthegame.com/elt134.swf)
[04:53:47] ‹Guest-DuneScorpion-9ba53› then throw the swf file into the standalone and login to elements!
[04:54:21] ‹Guest-DuneScorpion-9ba53› no need for browser anymore and no risk to see it autoupdate or get vulnerabilities. Enjoy

Wake up Zanz, and fix the server!

Wake up Zanz, and fix the server!

More likely Zanz woke up & noticed ad revenue wasn't covering hosting

Then he should find some cheaper hosting which is capable of caring for the 10 ppl daily. Or maybe setting up a server at home.
