==== Problems Encountered ====
 
* Can't find C:\Program on PATH.
* <del>The Javascript used by Galleries doesn't seem to work in newer IE. Curation guide might need to specify replacing the gallery's Javascript with code to create the <code><object></code> tag. This appears to because of a use of VBScript. VBScript can be reenabled via registry, or it might be cleaner to replace the JS.</del> VBScript and galleries work fine as-is in Flashpoint Secure Player.
* Some older Atmosphere worlds don't work in the plugin. Newer worlds (including galleries) won't work fully in the standalone player.
* Low FPS. Can seemingly be fixed by changing "Throttle when not active". Hardware acceleration can be added by editing a text file, but it results in oddities in the tic tac toe world (http://www.it-quadrat.de/ttt/ttt3d/ttt.aer)
* Cannot point plugin directly at an <code>.aer</code> file, an <code><object></code> tag must be used. (This is an original Adobe Atmosphere limitation)
* Some worlds automatically close chat. Some other worlds put useful information in the chat. The chat open/closed preference is saved, so worlds with chat should probably have some code to open chat embedded.
* Excessive caching may be a possibility.
* Stairs are tricky to climb. Could be related to missing avatars? Might want to include default avatar in htdocs.

=== Tools ===
 
* [https://github.com/Sgeo/bitmagic_converter/releases/latest bitmagic_converter] extracts the Flash or Shockwave file embedded in a BitMagic file and shows metadata such as name, creator/note, and edition (which is usually a date, presumably the date it was published)
* [https://github.com/Sgeo/minimagic_extractor/releases/latest minimagic_extractor] extracts BitMagic .bm files from Minimagic .exes. Minimagic was a way of packaging up a BitMagic animation as a standalone executable.

BitPlayer (BitMagic) Curation
 
Before You Start
 
These are not involved to curate but we generally do suggest you start with a Flash Game as your first curation.
 
== Identifying BitPlayer Games or Animations ==
 
These were originally downloaded from the internet into its player in the `.bm` form.  You could also export them into an `.exe` to share with others.  The `.exe's` are more common to find one the net or even on physical cd's of games.
 
We have already downloaded all the games and animations from the official MitMagic websites off of Wayback that could be saved.
 
== Curating ==
 
Do to how BitPlayer was implemented into Flashpoint you can not play a curation from the `Curate Tab` so screen shots will have to be taken either using the BitMagic Player outside of Flashpoint or by adding the game to Core via the `new game` button in the `Games` tab
 
Bits can be games, animations, trivia, ads, etc, this was a little player for your deskot that would stream new content everyday.
 
Here are what your application path and an example LaunchCommand will look like. [insert picture]
 
ApplicationPath: FPSoftware\FlashpointSecurePlayer.exe
LaunchCommand: bitmagic "http://bitmagic.com/1A1.bm"
 
== Wrapping It Up ==
 
Follow the proper [[Curation Format]], just like with any curation.
 
Pack everything into a single .7z or .zip file and submit it to the #other-game-curations channel of the Flashpoint Discord. Use the BitPlayer emoji when submitting.

== Panda3D Plugin ==
==== Problems Encountered ====
 
* Missing assets
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panda3D
* Unsupported 16-bit application error, that can't be installed in 64-bit Windows. Probably requires OTVDM and maybe works in newer 32-bit Windows.

=== Problems Encountered ===
Uses the Windows system directory and is not portable.
 
=== Notes ===
The latest version available on apple.com requires Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Service Pack 1 MFC.
 
Both Apple Application Support and QuickTime are required. Registry entries point to their locations.
 
Registry files: [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516027726851735632/708149898729488414/apple.reg apple.reg] [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516027726851735632/708149900696617070/quicktime.reg quicktime.reg]
 
Not all data in quicktime.reg is likely needed.
 
In Flashpoint, Basilisk is currently configured to disable QuickTime by default to avoid conflicts.
 
Some of the npqtplugin.dll files may interfere with other video/audio plugins or built-in behavior. It may make sense to have the QuickTime plugin available only when viewing a QuickTime curation. Basilisk's built-in MIME type configuration dialog can also be used to choose what plugins are used for different types of content.

==== Notes ====
==== Notes ====
Browser plugins (at least the NPAPI one, didn't check ActiveX) seem to look for Pulse by using ShGetFolderPathA to find CSIDL_FLAG_CREATE | CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILES if that function exists (and if not, looking at a Registry entry).
* External server is required to work, but can be configurated to work offline.
* Online worlds works offline with OpenSimulator?
* This needs to be configured so that the server will unload the OAR when the Viewer is turned off.
* Viewer is required to fully experience of OpenSimulator. For example [http://www.singularityviewer.org/ Singularity Viewer].


Some files seem to need a command sent to the plugin (for example, Fozzie needs "play obj=Dummy01 pkg=assets/fozzie/Package2.pws transition=0.30 heading=yes behave=joke"). The NPAPI version of the plugin looks like it relies on LiveConnect, which might not be supported in Basilisk.

OpenGL renderer (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CosmoSoftware\CosmoPlayer\2.1.1\renderer = OPENGL) seems to work fine on one system, needs testing before any decision to hardcode.

* Exstream: 3D does not play unless the proper codec is available for the (usually? always?) .asf file. The codec in use appears to be 0x75 VoxWare Metasound. The downloads available for this codec do not appear to work directly. ffmpeg can process it but it sounds terrible. MPlayer, when given its binary codecs and the -ac voxware option, sounds excellent. However, the binary requires a file to be present in SysWOW64. We may need to reencode the .asf files via MPlayer (and then ffmpeg if MPlayer cannot output an .asf file).

This is a list of web game technologies that we hope to support in the future. If you'd like to help us add one of these technologies to Flashpoint, please join the #other-plugins channel in our Discord.

For plugins which have been successfully added to Flashpoint, see Technologies to Add/Added Technologies.

Please add new technologies in alphanumeric order.

Here are some places to find more technologies to add to Flashpoint:

*Because this website does not support TLS 1.2, it cannot be opened in modern browsers. It can still be opened in browsers such as Pale Moon.

This page lists two kinds of plugins: platforms, as well as other technologies such as alternate VRML viewers and compatibility assistants such as Pipelight.

Unsorted

Technologies to be researched and then given dedicated sections.

Tulip 3D Tulip 3D Logo.png

Problems

It's unclear whether these two links reference the same plugin or two different plugins with Tulip in the name.

  • Exstream: 3D does not play unless the proper codec is available for the (usually? always?) .asf file. The codec in use appears to be 0x75 VoxWare Metasound. The downloads available for this codec do not appear to work directly. ffmpeg can process it but it sounds terrible. MPlayer, when given its binary codecs and the -ac voxware option, sounds excellent. However, the binary requires a file to be present in SysWOW64. We may need to reencode the .asf files via MPlayer (and then ffmpeg if MPlayer cannot output an .asf file).
