MAMu_'s Icons website broke with the death of Adobe Flash... but it's now fixed!
#389973 - 02/22/21 10:10 AM


MAMu_'s Icons (MAMu_'s old MAME icons collection) website broke with the discontinuation of Adobe Flash... since MAMu_ made it a completely Flash-driven website.
... so I logged in as server admin, installed a bleeding-edge copy of Ruffle (https://ruffle.rs/) on MAMu_'s website, made a small HTML tweak so that it could load it, and called it a day.

Even though AntoPISA (https://www.progettosnaps.net/icons/) and others host more up-to-date icons collections... MAMu_'s old site should now load fine for most people with new-ish web browsers.

Go here to MAMu_'s Icons to test out Ruffle's Flash "emulation": https://icons.mameworld.info/

And this serves as a head's up to "GrandMasterPeter" / "kastellorizo" of Powerstrike.net (http://www.powerstrike.net/index_old.htm) if you're still out there somewhere!
Let's get those old landmark MAME fan community "flovies" ("Flash movies") preserved this way too, by uploading them to the Internet Archive's Flash collection: https://archive.org/details/softwarelibrary_flash
(Article: https://blog.archive.org/2020/11/19/flash-animations-live-forever-at-the-internet-archive/)
... and maybe also to BlueMaxima's Flashpoint: https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/

"MAME Jump" has made it to archive.org, emulated in Ruffle
https://archive.org/details/mamejump
"MAME Jump", "MAME Song" and "MAME Story" are all also preserved by BlueMaxima's Flashpoint. But there were others on Powerstrike.net!

the octopus bit goes way back to 2001 to 2003 years of when Loonybin was
'dangerous to lurkers' with Smit's banner of "Welcome to Hell, Lurkers". :-)

Good recovery. Bummer MAMu isn't around, but so it goes.

Send out the Minisuka Police gals to handcuff and frisk Pete.


Pete had dropped by a few months ago.

If the Minisuka Police gals aren't able to track Pete down...send in the dance performers
from Blazing Saddles. "Pete isn't updating his site like he is supposed to be. Come on girls."
