This is a pretty simple trick for playing flash games full screen without the ads and in full screen so those stray mouse clicks don't cause unwanted navigation.

Here is an example using Zelda from bestonlinegames.info
1. Go to -->Menu-->Utility-->Gexec
2. Enter the following code in the dialogue box:

Code: Select all

Nice list there! I just pasted the addresses into a file called 'list'. and then created a small script to download them all:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
# download_list
for file in $(cat list) ; do
wget $file
done

The nice thing is that many of these will work with the old standalone Flash6 player, so you don't need to use a browser or even gtk2.

I sorted them with this script:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
# sort_games
mkdir -p flash6
for flash in $(ls -1 *.swf) ; do
	version=$(file "$flash")
	version=${version: -1}
	echo $flash=$version
	if [[ $( expr $version ) -lt 7 ]] ; then
		mv $flash flash6/
	fi
done

cool, nice list
try this
copy the list into a file called foo
now download all the games locally with
wget -i foo
WARNING: there are currently 72MB worth
now in a rox window right click on one of the files and do set run action
bareview "file://$1"
now they work offline and you can start a game just by clicking on it

Has anybody done a list or a download for the games from the sesamestreet.org web site.

I don't want to run httptrack over that site if I can avoid it - their bandwidth is for kids, not for leechers.

I have updated my original post to explain how to find the swf files on any site

Posted: **Fri 31 Oct 2008, 06:21**

Thanx, but that doesn't work real well for sesamestreet.org. They have "portlet" flash movies which talk back to a server db to get the games, videos and other content references and present them to the user.

Wheels within wheels really. Googling the site following your method only lists the references to the "portlet" swfs. Guess the Sesame Street Workshop people don't want make things too easy for Google Hackers.

Thanks for your efforts.

thanks HairyWill! It is a great trick! It's cool to play flash games without the browser!

Running flash games with puppy linux is a cool way to play free and without problems.

Can this thread be transferred to pizzasgood's games sub-directory?

I have taken the games listed above as well as some from other posts and a few of my own favourites and placed them as links in a web page contained in the attached .pet.

This will place a menu entry called FlashGames on your fun menu and open up the list in your browser. You can click on a link and then play.

I haven't tried them all, way too many, so no guarantees they all work.

Have Fun, J

there is a easier way to get swf!
I know this work on windows firefox, but i cannot confirm in linux firefox.
To use windows firefox, get the latest wine, dev version.
Go to portableapps.com and grab firefox
first, go to the website u want to download and play. Select full screen mode
second, go to file, save page as and save it. It should b in swf, but any other format should b fine, other than html and php.
U should b able to download with the missing plugin.
Third, press the swf file. The game should b launched via yr default linux web browser.
I hoped im clear

Hi all

I am not sure how to obtain an swf file to play when offline

If someone would be so kind to post or pm me on how to do so
it would be much appreciated

I am not sure how to obtain an swf file to play when offline

mostlikely the same way you get a video offline...use an older flashplayer version...10.0.15 works...something like 10.1 or 2 might...10.3 and newer will not.

I right click in the flash frame, view source, look for the appropriate .swf url (usually a relative link) and paste it into its parent url, then save-as.

Hi All

Thanks mikeb & technosaurus for responding

I was able to make it work under firefox

I went to file "save page as" and renamed it to blah blah just make sure to remove the ".html" extension tick "entire webpage" the click ok

This saved the webpage as a file with what i needed

I also got a standalone player to run them with

Thank you both for your response !
It was something i always wanted to look into just never took the time until now

very

Again thanks guys
