[NO BUG] [UNRELATED] Flash Issue

Chrome v. 43, and no problem for me. Are you sure that it is not some plugin / extension which is running and trying to use flash?

Unlikely as the only page open at the time was this site : Flash player did fail, then on restarting it, I saw the notification I saw, I went to the proper google help pages, and that's what they said. I posted that information thinking it might be a bug issue down the line, when support is withdrawn. I have no idea beyond that.

Edited :

1 extension is enabled : Google Docs 0.9

Browser Version is : 43.0.2357.81 m

update status is : Google Chrome is up to date.
-1 : Move to archive.

I have see it!! I had an error message today on opening the game: shockwave flash player has failed to load.

I restarted and all worked fine, no extensions, or add ons running other than those packaged with chrome.

Browser version the same as Danik has mentioned already and I am also up to date

I suspect you may be right, as since I have done the work-around advised by google... the IM system is actually working much better : previously a single chat box would not open on selection, I had to open another first then the second would actually be usable : now it works fine and I can select a name and the box opens and can be used, the problem had also been reported as an issue by others.

here is the full changes coming to anyone using chrome, I am not getting the bug at present as I have implemented the temporary workaround, but now receive a warning about the player being unsupported on every log in. I am receiving the warning on many sites currently.
https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/6213033

I really dont want to be changing browser just to be able to play this game which is a concern to me and I suspect could be to others as well.

At worst case scenario:

Instant messenger may also use some parts in flash but it should be working anyway.


Elements that do not work will be fixed.

Perhaps however you need an update in Adobe flash? I use chrome 43 always and I have had no issues till now. I should test the instant messenger today and see.

According to the google article here: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/6213033

This issue is completely unrelated with Pirates Glory.

The problem is related to the extensions/addons you already use.
If you are getting such errors, you should be getting it in all pages.

To get rid of the warnings, either deactivate/remove the unsupported extensions/addons or follow the instructions at the url above.

I'm sure you are right as you would know what is used on the site, put it down to one of those poorly worded alerts that confuse more than enlighten.

thankee :)

PS : My Adobe and Chrome are both up to date, being on auto-update.
