JPEXS Free Flash Decompiler VS Lightspark

If you're lucky, the developers will have used a standard format to store their assets and you can just use an existing asset extractor to do the dirty work for you: Unreal, Unity, and Flash (.swf) are some of the most popular ones. Source: 5 months ago

I recently found an awesome flash decompiler[0] and used it to get around site-locking on some swfs I downloaded years ago. Some swfs require files from the sites they are hosted on but I downloaded them and modified the swfs to find these files on a local server instead. So cool being able to modify the source code whereas back in the day I had to rely on hex editing to invert conditionals. [0] - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

You can use "inspect element" on the page in Chrome to find the swf. Once you've got it, you can use JPEXS to dump the sound files. Source: 11 months ago

But if anyone finds this and is curious, JPEXS decompiler is by far the best option. https://github.com/jindrapetrik/jpexs-decompiler. Source: 12 months ago

I wanted to change the art that is displayed on the loading screen and wanted to ask if I'm doing it the right way. So far the instructions I've found have directed me to use something called UNREALPAK to unpack the Game.pak file, then look for the loadingScreen.swf file and decompile it with this program. After that I should be able to replace the image and, I assume, recompile and repack the loadingScreen.swf... Source: about 1 year ago

Not the first attempted Flash reimplementation[1,2,3]. The GNU one didn’t work all that well back in the day as far as I remember, but then Flash was a moving target at the time.

A true emulator would be something like Ruffle or Lightspark. Ruffle I know doesn't work well with Walfas last time I checked. I don't know about Lightspark. Source: over 1 year ago

Lightspark, a browser plugin written in C++. It's a work in progress, not every flash content will work. Modern mainstream browsers don't support running it within a page, so flash content needs to be run in a standalone lightspark app, or in some lesser known browsers. Source: over 1 year ago

I'm trying to install lightspark on my computer, and it hinges on launching a shell script that mainly executes a CMake command. When I try ./build.sh (the name of the shell script), I get a bunch of lines of errors. The first one I think is major is CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.23/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:69 (message): The C compiler "/usr/bin/cc" is not able to compile a simple test...

I'm having alot of fun with this post actually. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some alternative or workaround for whatever you guys need to run. For example, instead of the clunky Java, we have this. Instead of Flash, try this. Source: over 2 years ago
