MAMu_'s Icons website broke with the death of Adobe Flash... but it's now fixed!
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!
