Short description
Open SWF links of Adobe Animate (Flash) in a pure sandboxed JavaScript emulator Flash Player + play & save favourite flashes to view them later.
Full summary

This extension plays SWF objects of Adobe Animate (Flash) in a pure JS emulator without the need to have a native Flash plug-in like Adobe FlashPlayer. The extension uses two open-source Flash to JS libraries (Ruffle and SWF2JS) as its emulation engine. By default, the extension does not play Flash objects instead, the user presses the toolbar button for the extension to find all available Flash objects or links in the current webpage. It will offer the user to select the proper SWF object and then send the link to a stand-alone emulator window. This way Flash objects are only functioning when there is a request. For Flash links, the extension adds a context menu item to these links so you can directly emulate an SWF link. Since this extension does not run Flash by default, it is lighter than other similar extensions. It only runs Flash on demand.

Features: Runs a pure JavaScript-based Flash emulator Does not require any native plug-ins Run in a private sandboxed window to protect the user privacy Use two different engines: Ruffle (https://ruffle.rs/) and SWF2JS (https://swf2js.com/) Optionally emulate all embedded flash objects inside the page (use action's right-click context menu)

Notes:

  1. This extension uses two open-source emulator engines. The SWF2JS library still does not support all methods available so some SWF objects may crash the engine. The extension always tries to open the emulation window the same size as the actual Flash object, however, you can resize the window to the proper size anytime.

Open the webpage where the flash content is and simply press the play button on the flash content and this will run the flash on the webpage also it can be saved to a flash playlist for it to be played later without downloading.

Add new flash file:

  • Navigate to the webpage with some flash files
  • Click to icon of extension Flash Player +
  • Select on top menu "Add flash from actual page"
  • Click to blue icon "add"
  • If you want can change flash name

Play saves flashes:

  • Click to icon of Flash Player +
  • Select on top menu "My Flash Playlist"
  • Click to blue icon "play" or name of flash (flash opens in Fullscreen mode)
  • If you want you can remove flash (red icon)

Thank you and we hope you enjoy this extension.
