I also looked up a round icon for it and placed it in /usr/local/share/pixmaps/flashplayer.png to tell it apart from flash-player-properties in the menus n’stuff. Then, you want to declare it as an application I did it by creating a file /usr/local/share/applications/sktop: Ĭategories=AudioVideo Audio Video Player TV So, the first thing is obviously to put the binary somewhere in system folders ( /usr/local/bin/ is the one designated for that purpose). I use XFCE, but I imagine most of it would be similar for any other DE. If you’re talking about system-wide install (running SWF files from file manager or using exo-open/ mimeopen), you need to set it up in your system. If you’re talking about Lutris, then the “executable” field is supposed to be where the executable file goes – in this case Flash player, and the “arguments” is where the filename goes (CLI usage for Adobe Flash player is flashplayer ). I even tried pre-loading the game directory, and adding the game directory to the bottom row. Once flash player is opened, I can manually browse to and open the file no problem. And flash does load, with the swf file in the address bar. So instead, I tried setting up my paths like yours. If its not an executable, it throws an error saying as much. But how does the arguments portion work? Do I need to specify the swf file manually? Or can I just tell my system to always open swf files with flash player?Įdit: Ok, so it turns out you cannot just tell your system to open SWF files, then try to run it in lutris. Your just opening the flash player itself. I still need to test it, but its looking good so far.Īnd I see what your doing, I think. Loaded the swf file, and it went right to the main menu. I was trying to run everything through the html file. Flash games normally aren’t my thing, so I didn’t bother with that file.
