opening swf files

[lastwysh]

after i hack an swf file and do all that it's reassembled and ****, i try to open it and it opens my web browser and prompts me with a download of the file i just tried opening and even if i save or hit open it keeps prompting me with download. i have the latest flash player and all that i can play the games if they're on a website but i can't open them straight from desktop.

Embed it on a simple, white HTML-site just for testing?

ok i'll try..

Yeah, that worked. but i want to be able to just double click them and have them open... do you have to put it on html files or whatever too?

If you have a HTML-document with a code that tells the document to find the SWF-file and where it is, the HTML-document till do so. If you want to be able to open aforementioned HTML-document in the browser, you have to have your browser as the pre-choice for opening HTML-files.

do you mean to set "open with..." as my web browser (i use firefox)
because i did that, and thats what keeps giving me the download prompt.

If you open the HTML-document that has the SWF embeded, that should not be an issue.

You gotta change the defult opening thing when the swf file is on ur comp, change it to your internet browser as defult then when you double click that kind of file it will open with your browser and you can play it.
