Problems with the arcade games

killergorilla · 30 July 2003, 02:15

For some reason using Opera the flash games open in tiny little windows.

I've tried internet explorer and they are fine.

Any ideas?

EDIT: IT only seems to be Asteroids and Hexxagon for some reason

I noticed that on Hexxagon. You can zoom in though and the games are fine to play. Press 0 (zero) a few times on your keyboard or set the zoom percentage at the top-right.

I've found the culprit:

Here's a bit of the snake page:
<embed src="/games/snake.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="400">

And the same line in the Hexxagon page:
<embed src="/games/hexxagon/hexxagonFinal.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" >

Notice the omission of width and height attributes in the Hexxagon version.

I didn't realize you had an arcade game section. I just found it on the right top menu and had a few goes at Pacman. Damn, is it ever hard, my highest score is only about 12K. Is it just me or does it feel faster than the arcade? I can't imagine how some of you have achieved such high scores!

Practice practice...

"arcade" will be fully removed with the EAB v3, and for the moment, you can still find them here.
