The older ibp flash games moved their gamedata files to a different path. Ibp html5 games still use a gamedata folder but it remains at the original path location. This is how it was done for html5 games when ibp began support for those game types.

If SMF Arcade detects flash then it should move the gamedata folder. However, if it detects HTML5 then it should just leave the original path.

I put it in its own thread since the other thread was about HTML5 games that were flashing. You are now posting something about an Adobe flash game.

Hmmm...that's odd as I'm sure I posted earlier.

Anyway there was a flash game that just randomly stopped working. Upon checking the gamedata folder which should have been in the gamedata folder under arcade was missing. I unistalled the game and reinstalled it and it now works fine.

What is mean't to be in the folder 'Arcade' that's in the root of the site?

I ask because I reinstalled that game and the game's gamedata folder then appeared in the 'Gamedata' folder that's inside the 'Arcade' folder, but there are also other games inside that folder too is that right.

I have taken a screenshot so you can see what I mean

Just to be clear..

Bolang's version is clean - thanks Bolang!

The version that was noted in the 1st post of the thread is the infected game.

Here is a flash game that starts but then stops when you have to play the bonus game.

It should be noted that on the site the gamedata folder is missing from the game's folder even though it's in the original .tar file. I tried uploading the gamedata folder to the game's folder but it still doesn't work.

This game's folder is also in the /public_html/arcade folder, but all that's in the folder is the bonusgames folder with 3 .swf files in it.

This version should work on SNF arcade  on my site works well.
game_PhilmontMiniBearDash_Doc.tar

Have a good day

bolang where is your site? Link please?

No I don't think it's a false positive.
The code I see in those files is not obfuscated javascript & I found it odd prior to my AV detecting it.

I used a basic javascript function to convert document.write() to DOM & it flagged it in more than 1 file from the same game.

Quote from: Chen Zhen on September 15, 2023, 10:22:25 PMI thought you were adding that you have flash type games that used to work but stopped or at least that's how I read it.
I don't want one of the infected HTML5 games that are "flashing".
You said a "flash game" as in Adobe Flash ..
Come on here.. I don't want that stuff on my PC at all.
Why would I ask for a malware infected file?

Sorry Chen I misunderstood what you meant. I know you know your stuff about these things but my AV hasn't flagged any of those files as viruses, do you think it might be a false positive by Defender?

As far as the non working flash games are concerned I have replaced then now and they are working.

If it happens again I'll post one on here.
