Anything that can run in Ruffle runs in Ruffle exclusively.

I have a slightly different question. Can I use the Newgrounds flash player for websites other than Newgrounds? Or is it exclusively for this site?

If you can download the SWF somehow, you can import it into the player.

So I take it as a no because you can pretty much do the same thing with the standalone flash player downloadable from the Adobe website.

iu_225479_8241703.pngExcuse me, I just download newgrounds player and I can't make it work for any game.I launch it and this is all I get, don't know how to launch the game from here or if I'm missing something?

That means you either have a plugin that's killswitched and/or you have a "security" update which blocked flash.


Check Sonu's topic. That should work for Windows PC at least...

I downloaded RunAsDate and set it to 2020, asked to run newgrounds launcher, how do I load the game after that? at the load option it asks for a full path (local or remote) and then there's a button that says "load SWF" should I put the direction of the game I want to load there?


I tried the awakening

If you mean running the game from NG's website, then the game SHOULD load with the NG Player automatically after you click "Launch with Newgrounds Player" on the game page. The load option you mentioned is only for loading SWF files/games that are on your harddrive, not from websites like NG. I'm not sure about World's End and Awakening.

Did you go to your own settings page and click the toggle to run Flash games with NG Player?


EDIT: I checked World's End and Awakening. The games load with my NG Player after a few seconds.


A blank screen at the game's page should mean you're not using the NG Player. If Flash games have been set to run with NG Player(in your NG Account settings), there should be a "Launch with Newgrounds Player" link in the game's page.


If that's not the problem, I guess you would have to have to re-install NG Player. Best to full uninstall Flash Player before reinstalling:


Adobe Flash Player Uninstaller (close everything and open as Administrator). Full instructions here.

Remove everything inside these folders (not the folder, just the content inside):

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\
%appdata%\Adobe\Flash Player
%appdata%\Macromedia\Flash Player

I think it should be one of those 2 what I'm missing

White screen means it is loading. For large games like EBF5, it took like a few minutes before it loaded for me. Maybe a connection issue??? Try inserting that CFG file in your system folders , as mention in Sonu's topic and see what happens?

I'm fairly sure it only works on certain games / videos, I would recommend using flashpoint as it has most HUGE flash games that most people miss. (I think it also has some NG games as well)

thats the thing. i read it and did everything it said. but it still does not work for me.


I don't know why my NG player does this now, I already have installed and uninstalled it with the latest update of NG player and I still have Flash Player 32 bit. I cannot use the SWF files that I have downloaded and all I get is this screen!! I can't even click on it to find what is wrong!! Please help 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭


UPDATE: NVM, I fixed it by reading the other threads from the other users who had this problem and all I needed to do was delete the two security windows updates and I'm back to normal DX thank you for posting the link of the thread over and over again. I'll bookmark it forever in case it happens again.
