| − | * Download [https://mega.nz/#!1jpQWKJY!Qdy5lbhc6iTa9Pq3ADCJ3c4obbxBSBvSSZEwoNXq-sc Flashpoint Core], a lightweight developer version of Flashpoint
| |
| − | * Most games are tested within <code>Flashpoint Core X.X/Games/Flash/htdocs</code>. X.X is the version number
| |
| − | * Make note of the direct URL to the game's main files you've extracted
| |
| − | <blockquote>'''Important''', for most non-flash games, you need to save not only the game main file, but also the HTML code snippet in which the main file is embedded - place that in an index.html file, and keep reading </blockquote>
| |
| − | * Within htdocs, make a folder with the website name
| |
| − | ** i.e. <code>newgrounds.com</code>, <code>static.nickjr.com</code>, etc
| |
| − | * Within that folder, begin mimicking the URL by building corresponding subdirectories.
| |
| − | ** i.e. <code>newgrounds.com/alienhominid/59593_alien_booya202c.swf</code> - you would make an <code>alienhominid</code> subfolder, if your url has more, keep adding subfolders until it looks like your url
| |
| − | * Finally, place your game's main files in the last subfolder (along with an <code>index.html</code> if you've created one)
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Now that you have the code set up correctly in htdocs:'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Open up Flashpoint Core and click on New Game on the bottom right corner
| |
| − | * Click on <u>Application Path</u> and select the appropriate path for your extracted game
| |
| − | ** i.e. flashplayer.exe for flash, startUnity.bat for Unity, etc.
| |
| − | * The <u>Launch command</u> should be the exact URL to where you extracted the game
| |
| − | ** '''However''', for most non-Flash games, you need to link it to the html in which the game is embedded
| |
| − | * If you want to edit these locations later, head to the Arcade tab and select the game (there will be a pencil image and a trash image next to the name) and click the pencil
| |
| − | * You should see a new game in the launcher list
| |
| − | * Run it

| − | == Debugging ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Observe the Flashpoint redirector window and see if you're getting 404 errors - you can grab any missing assets or code by going to the indicated URL locations, downloading it and placing it correctly in the htdocs
| |
| − | * Hunt down other websites in which the game has been embedded or even originally hosted if any of the files end up being broken
