You may know AdBlock Plus plugin for Firefox as a pretty good way to block ads on websites. What you may not know is that it can be used to download flash media embedded in web pages like a flash game. See the screen cast where I download a super cool game "4 Wheel Madness" from flashgames247.com
(Safe for work, no audio)
In case you can't understand from the video, here are the steps to follow:
- Go to the page having the game. In this example it is http://www.flashgames247.com/play/754.html
- When the flash content loads, you get a link named "block" that AdBlock Plus have added to the top right corner of the game. Click on it.
- In the window that pops up, copy the location of the swf file and cancel the pop up.
- In a new tab paste that address and hit enter. When the game loads, select File -> Save Page As and save the swf file to your computer.
- Now you can play that game even when you are not connected to internet by opening that swf file in Firefox or IE.
Happy Gaming.
Right-clicking the "Block" tab and choosing "Save link as" from the context menu should be a little easier - this tab is a link pointing to the Flash file.
Thanks wladimir,
that made it too easy :)
Wonderful post
Zapak has been expanding a lot, lately.
I was a total addict at Indiagames until Zapak came.
The range and quality of games available at Zapak is just mindblowing.And to top it all, they now support it with offline events like Gameplexes.
What I discoverd was that you can even embed their games as widgets in your blog. I tested one.
Here is the link
Although I have not yet started utilizing the full potential, I can see this adding a lot of value to gaming bloggers.
Would like to see your comments about the same on my blog. : D
