Woo \o/
I wonder if it should be pre-penguined? Nah...
Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
I have no idea what you two are talking about!
I can't get any of the games to work. The emulator just seems to reset and return to the command prompt when I click on any of the three listed games.
* Airball
* Chuckie Egg
* Manic Miner

Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
Oh! I can't reproduce that. I wonder if your browser has cached the old version somehow? Perhaps try purging your cache?
Edit: I note the html references xroar.swf twice, and I was only adding the parameters to one. Maybe that's browser-specific? I've updated the page to add it to both references now. See if that helps

Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
I purged the cache and the problem remains. I'm using Windows 2000 Pro, IE6, and Flash Player 10.
Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
Ok, I'm testing with Firefox - please let me know if what I just did to it (edit above) helps IE.
Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
Its working fine now!
Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
Excellent. I'll keep it like that!
Re: Turns out Flash is really slow
Here's my first bash at adding sound - it works (requires Flash 10), but question is, is it an acceptable speed on *any* modern system?
Edit: added a bit of frameskip, which helps a little.

The best machine I have is an AMD Sempron 2400+, and its totally unusable on that. Further testing is no longer possible unless speed can be improved considerably.
