Comments and Reviews
extremely buggy and definitely not ready for the general use
While every file I tried did seem to load, none of them ran very well. Most ran at ridiculous speeds with objects popping in and out of existence. Nearly every file I ran ended with the program crashing. The closest it came to working was playing the intro to a file, fading to black when the start button was click, and then staying on that blank screen until I closed the program.
I have just downloaded and installed the 64 bit version of Lightspark in Windows 10.
It does not appear in my list of applications.
If I try to open my SWF file and look for Lightspark it does not appear in the list .
When I run it from Program Files, a command window opens and closes too quickly for me to see the content and then nothing happens.
I think this development needs more basic work.
