For >>>/g/104950692
Finally. Done, mostly. I ended up having to rewrite the Music code but worth it ultimately.
There's still a couple bugs here and there, notably when you exit to the menu, the music isn't
stopped so sounds overlap, but it's playable with music now and the music is embedded into the
file too.
I will get to fix these bugs later but for now I'm tired. How did they even decide to publish a
flash this broken is beyond me. Funnily enough, it did run on Ruffle despite having glaring
mistakes in code which means ruffle implements some kind of stack context, but it didn't work in
the flash projector or on the plugin on palemoon. Did it ever even work when it was published?

I actually can...But it's a taxing job and CJK langs are just a headache to work with in general
compared to other languages. I can put it on my to-do I suppose.

Huh, I didn't notice just how bad those bugs were.

Alright. Bugs fixed.

Now your ears shouldn't ideally bleed out of the agonizing mix of two sounds. Looks like I was
too hasty in making this thread.

Anon, I'll let you in on this now, seeing as you want to get technologic with flash.
If you manage to build a simple UI tool than just takes a bunch of swf files as input and can
merge them into a single swf file container,
your name will definitely go down in the annals of /f/lash. It's something needed to this day and
never done yet.

So an UI wrapper over swfcombine?
Admittedly I only know xlib and win32 separately so I'll have to learn some crossplatform library
to do that but that doesn't sound very difficult, I have experience making shitty wrappers over
polished software too.
But, what exactly do you mean by merging multiple SWFs exactly?

why does it run like ass in flash

Runs just fine on mine except the sound bugs. Try >>3523815

Those multi part files that can't be posted on /f/ (or any other board/archive), because they
need multiple swf files in a subfolder to work correctly - like most of JSK releases for example.
Oftentimes more files like xml etc. are also needed.
Basically you want to take the building block structure of flash and reduce it into a single
container file again without breaking AS3 code and the like.
Think about all the multi part file releases that were never or at least never comprehensively
archived because of that. And small ones could be posted on /f/ again!

I only vaguely heard of this series before, but thank you for the flash preservation.

That's way more complex, and it's basically what I'm scrambling to do manually now. But, I'll
have a look into that.
