I've got the SuperNova Player installed, but it doesn't seem to work on Kongregate. I've been to the demo page at https://www.getsupernova.com/demo/ and it works just fine. The game opens in the stand-alone player. However on Kongregate, I can't seem to get anything to launch in the player. Any ideas on why?

I suggest you get the Supernova SWF Chrome Extension from the Chome Webstore directly. More information on getting flash games to play can be found [on this Kong topic](https://kong.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360031911432).

The externsion is only working until they discontinue Flash within the browser. After that you need to install Super Nova Standalone player.
Still I havn't found a solution to the same problem.

I'm having the same problem. I have both the standalone player and the Chrome extension, and can run the demo at https://www.getsupernova.com/demo/. The extension appears on kongregate.com, but clicking either option has no effect. I can't find anyway to run the standalone player. I'm running on Windows 10.

It appears that McAfee (and perhaps some other security companies) consider Supernova's implementation in breach of security standards and therefore have blocked Supernova as a trojan horse application. If you have antivirus or malware detection software enabled, Supernova will not work. Somebody at Supernova need to get to work and fix their implementation to become standards compliant.

I would direct this to the developers of this bolt on. I will say that I don't use Supernova and Flash still works fine for me on Chrome.

The reason this is all happening at all because the core of the problem, Adobe Flash, is a huge security risk and is highly susceptible to hacking. As SuperNova just bypasses Chrome's plugin enabler, you're still enabling Flash, causing your antivrus to go off

It's true that you will need the full Supernova Player soon to run .SWF games (likely by Jan 12th, 2021), but having the extension installed is still a good idea too (which comes with the Player), because it can help you launch the player on many sites which haven't installed our javascript.
The Supernova Player requires a special integration into Kongregate via Javascript , because Kongregate puts their .SWF games inside an IFRAME sub-page instead of in the top-level page itself, so the extension can't detect the .SWF game urls on Kongregate. That's why it wont launch the Player on Kongregate when you push the "Run in Supernova Player" button, but works on other .SWF game sites which use direct embeds on the top-level page.
Kongregate has an engineer working on this integration, so hopefully by the time Adobe® Flash® Player is completely disabled in Chrome, the SuperNova Player will work via the javascript launcher on Kongregate.
Supernova Player has many security features to help protect users which Adobe® Flash® Player didn't. For example we test the SWF files (by cryptographic hash) and URLs against a whitelist before running them, plus other protections.
It's too bad about McAfee, but McAfee can mark any application they want as being risky. However, if Supernova Player gets widely adopted enough in 2021, the McAfee issue will hopefully go away.

I believe that you can email McAffee to look into your specific application to get it whitelisted.

Chromebooks can not install the Supernova Player. Error: SuperNovaSetup.exe "This file is designed for a PC using Windows software. This is not compatible with your device which runs Chrome OS." Bummer! How will Chromebook users run the flash games if we can not install the .exe files?

I expect you are in the same boat as AppleOS users (which has no solution currently).
With that said, if you already have the badge, you can still claim BotD's on Flash games.

We have an internal alpha version for MacOS which works well (about the same as the Windows version). However, we have not completed the full MacOS feature set required for release (security features, browser integration, etc) due to limited adoption/usage of the Windows version of Supernova Player to date.
We'll see what happens on Jan 12th and if usage justifies the completion and release of the MacOS version.
Not sure that a ChromeOS version is possible at this time, sorry.

Any update for the Kong script? 48 hours away from total shutdown and kissing years of Kong support goodbye...

I just wrote their dev team. But I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of sites wait until things actually get shut down, then take action immediately afterward.
In other news we released a new extension for Microsoft Edge, which supports automatic game bookmarking too:

Here's hoping, but I'm thinking it's not likely.

Supernova SWF Enabler doesn't work, as of an hour ago I cannot play flash games in any browser
EDIT: I figured out that this version was blocking flash as it was coded into the last update for flash and downloaded a much earlier version to check, flash is now working and I can game again. I am using this file: https://easyupload.io/t9mevg (Expires in 30 days) which I downloaded from a torrent here: https://archive.org/details/flashplayerarchivedversions2 I only downloaded one version and not the whole archive. The 330 folder is version 28, not ideal I'm sure but works nevertheless.

Well at least Adobe has competent software engineers. Wait no, this totally sucks. My sarcasm is even pissing me off...

As mentioned you need the Supernova Player. Many sites have deployed our javascript, and yes, most of the games play.
Examples:
https://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Action/Play/Shadez-2.html
http://www.gamesbox.com/games/17433/Feudalism_2
Not all games work perfectly, but most of them work great! Also, if you have both the Player and the Extension, you can even play SWF games sites without the javascript, as long as the <object>/<embed> tags are directly on the page.

Nova didn't work for me (Edge), neither did Ruffle. The old version of pepflashplayer.dll did, tho.
