Request for pc game support.

There are some pc games that won't start on windows 11 because they use within the game some .swf files. For example the game Naraba world, is a game that uses DX9, but for the movies and hud it uses .swf files. Because of this, the game will not start. Can you make these kinds of games compatible with windows 11 as well?

Can you send the SWF files to test?

[IraFunesto]

Sure enough, here is one of the files:
avatarhud.zip

I forgot to mention that the game starts via exe.

So I've installed Naraba World Mysterious Palace to test.

It seems the game is using the Flash10a.ocx and Flash10aa.ocx files in the main directory.

Is this the game you were trying to start? On my Windows 11 installation, the game starts fine - intro movies play, first screen boots.
I do get this message, however:

presumably because I don't have a license.

More information needed: is this the right game? What do you intend to do with Flash? Do you want to replace the old Flash 10 version with a new one? etc.

There are actually three games:
Naraba World Mysterious Palace
Naraba - Descubre un Nuevo Mundo
Naraba World - El Laberinto de la Luz
They use the same engine and don't run properly on Windows 11, which is where I wanted to play them. On Windows 7, however, they work fine. I don't have the .ocx files you mentioned in the game folder, and I can't find them on the internet. I don't know if applying them would fix the crash problem at startup. To play, you need a license, which is no longer available because the servers are down, but I recently found a fix on abandonsocios that brought it back to life.
If you could send me the .ocx files, I could try putting them in the game folder and see if anything happens.

Here you go, the password is naraba-flash, this link will work for a day:

Unfortunately, I can't seem to access abandonsocios for the fix, the site seems to be down.
I'll retry later.

I tried putting the two files in the game folder, but it still won't start. Maybe I need to install some Flash component on Windows that works like Adobe Flash Player?
You can also find the license fix by searching for the game on MyAbandonware.
