Here's the .swf. It will run standalone if you've installed the latest flash.

Greatest flash ever!

I damn near did too. I didn't see him at first but just hearing "55!" get screamed in the background was enough.

RayB · « **Reply #9 on:** January 29, 2009, 07:10:47 pm »

I have a program that will wrap that SWF up as an EXE and sets the resolution to full screen. (Requires Windows). What resolution would you guys want this at?

pinballwizard79 · « **Reply #10 on:** January 29, 2009, 09:43:33 pm »

Well how about several res's for everyone?

800*600
640*480
1024*768 (my res, sorta)

Yeah yeah haggars cant be choosers

I mean beggars cant be choosers

Whatever you do will be great, seriously great, like so great people can play van f'n hagar on my showcase great.

Hurry up too btw

IG-88 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2009, 09:47:27 pm »

Sweet RayB, gopher it! What kinda software does that?

800x600 btw

RayB · « **Reply #12 on:** January 29, 2009, 11:31:05 pm »

Sorry guys, 512x384 was the closest match to the actual game size. Any higher resulted in a big ugly border. I just couldn't get it to scale. (Shouldn't be a problem, since ArcadeVGA does 512 quite nicely). You need Windows 98 or higher, with Direct X 7 or higher.

Files are too big to attach here, so grab em off my server until I find a suitable place to stick em:

http://www.rayb.com/downloads/vh-assteroids_512x384.zip

http://www.rayb.com/downloads/vh-assteroids_512-nomouse.zip

"nomouse" version has the pointer hidden. Use the TAB key to select "Start Game" with the yellow rectangle, then press Space.

Let me know if it's buggy. I had to make a "wrapper" and it took a while to get the kinks out. Any other Flash games I should "wrap" like this?

Ummon · « **Reply #13 on:** January 30, 2009, 02:59:24 am »

Certainly curious. You can even pause the game. Pushing up for thrust takes a little getting used to, though.

IG-88 · « **Reply #14 on:** January 30, 2009, 06:37:50 am »

Thanks RayB. I got the first one but the second gave me a "404".

Too funny thanks for the post

Blanka · « **Reply #18 on:** January 31, 2009, 02:40:48 am »

It's pretty hard. In Asteroids the broken rocks go in all different directions after the blast. Here they continue the same direction. And the wide legs make the 'ship' a lot bigger than in the original. Funny, but hard.
1920x1200 please?

RayB · « **Reply #19 on:** February 01, 2009, 06:16:58 pm »

Sorry Blanka, Flash does not perform well when stretched to high resolutions. I have to stick to a "native" resolution that's close to the original size in order to keep the frame rate good. (Is your MAME cab actually running at that high a res??)

IG-88: I'll wrap those two suggestions soon.

IG-88 · « **Reply #20 on:** February 01, 2009, 07:38:18 pm »

Cool, thanks!

CrazyKongFan · « **Reply #22 on:** February 02, 2009, 01:14:10 pm »

I thought it was alot easier than the real Asteroids...just got 104K on it (and it didn't roll over to 0

) No way can I get that high of a score on Asteroids.

You apparently have missed his exclamations about blocky pixels.

IG-88 · « **Reply #24 on:** September 07, 2010, 08:41:08 am »

Sorry to drag up an old thread but I figured out a really easy way to save flash games to my computer and was just curious to see if anyone else was still interested.

RayB: Do you still have that software that you talked about earlier in this thread?

RayB · « **Reply #25 on:** September 07, 2010, 12:39:15 pm »

IG-88 · « **Reply #26 on:** September 07, 2010, 12:46:43 pm »

Cool. Do you know where I could get a copy of it? I got about 20 games I'd like to play around with.

RayB · « **Reply #27 on:** September 07, 2010, 02:56:48 pm »

+ I made a SWF loader parent file.

IG-88 · « **Reply #28 on:** September 07, 2010, 04:34:56 pm »

What was the purpose of the SWF loader parent file?

What was the purpose of the SWF loader parent file?

Couple reasons...
1. The "parent" loader is an EXE. Flash files you grab off websites are .SWF. Front ends won't launch them.

2. I also set the scaling options optimally and I can do things like add background graphics. (See attached ZIP)
