You need a capable computer in order to record a gameplay. Luckily, there are plenty applications available for this procedure:

  1. Fraps - benchmarker that has the capability of recording the gameplay as well.
  2. Mirilis Action - software used exclusively for gameplay recording.
  3. Camtasia Studio - records desktop, Adobe Flash games, etc.

Answer by Sean Hill

The Adobe Shockwave Player is just a product that plays the content created in Shockwave. If you want to create such content to deploy it on a website or computer, you will need the necessary application called Adobe Flash. That's the only software that can created Shockwave and Flash objects/action scripting/coding, etc.

I downloaded Adobe Flash Player but it's not installing. How can I install Flash Player in Google Chrome?

P
Answer by Pete Clapp

You don't need to install it on Google Chrome because Adobe Flash Player is directly integrated with Google Chrome and enabled by default. Also Chrome automatically updates when new versions of Adobe Flash Player are available. For more information, you can check the Google Plug-ins web page.

When I log onto the Internet, my PC tells me plug-ins are unresponsive. This morning I got a message in my browser that the Shockwave player crashed. My Facebook has been affected as well. My phone sent me notifications about the Facebook access. What's happening here? Bugs?

Answer by Julia Bocchetta

The crash could happen because of various reasons. I suggest you visit the plug-ins page of your browser and check for malware and adware applications and toolbars, and usually a simple restart of the browser fixes the problem. The thing with Facebook is that the browser tried to log-in and you have notifications activated and that's why you receive them on your phone.

The Shockwave Player is a web plugin that allows you to play multimedia files. The player was also used for interactive web content like games, business presentations and anything from entertainment to advertisements. The player was needed to display content created with Adobe Director. However, Shockwave Player isn't used so much nowadays with Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Air on the market.

Based on the official information, Shockwave 10 doesn't run on Windows 10. Not even version 12 which is the latest one doesn't have Windows 10 support, but as long as you'll be installing in compatibility mode and with Run as Administrator selected, everything should be fine.
