The redit link doesn’t seem to work anymore. And I’m unfortunately stuck with windows 11. Anyone have any other fixes for this?

I was only able to open this file in Internet Explorer (which is still an app with Windows 10!) after installing this Shockwave Player for the IE browser: https://filehippo.com/download_shockwave/

After the shockwave player is downloaded, left click on the .dcr file and select Open With > Internet Explorer.

I am so happy I found this game it was a ridiculously large part of my childhood

[here is the reddit thread I found this solution in: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/fssgu3/help_me_run_a_shockwave_game_dcr/%5D

need to have a virtual machine OR you need to it to be an ISO file

You can use Newgrounds Player. It isn’t limited to Newgrounds-only content. It does support .SWF files downloaded from other sites. Also, as somebody who used it just recently (a couple of hours before writing this comment), I can tell you it does work perfectly.

.P.S. It is Windows only, there’s no Mac version available. Are you a Windows user by any chance?

.P.P.S. If you’re interested, just simply click here.

I don’t know if you’re a Windows user, but you can just go on ahead and download the Newgrounds Player from right over here. Its not strictly limited to Newgrounds-only content, it supports other Adobe Flash content from other sites as well. Also, as somebody who used it just recently, it does work perfectly. 😀

You need to download a flash game player, but I can’t find one that exists anymore. I’m looking for Shockwave or Adobe Director for mac but I can’t find a download link.

For more info, this is the website I was looking at

I cant get it to work on my computer. Do you know what I’m doing wrong??
