Hi Sue the Tyke,

I reduced the post you made as we only needed the top part of the information. What exactly is happening when you try to load the HTML5 version?

Which steps have you taken and which ones work as posted in the link http://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=650382

Please let us know in reply to this post.

Thank you.

for those still in denial that it is happening.

Adobe Flash Player EOL General Information Page

Since Adobe will no longer be supporting Flash Player after December 31, 2020 and Adobe will block Flash content from running in Flash Player beginning January 12, 2021, Adobe strongly recommends all users immediately uninstall Flash Player to help protect their systems.

Hi Stu3,

Converting the game from flash to HTML5 is not a simple task, and can't be done quickly. It is a very different language, so it takes time to convert from one programming language to another. We have to test the new language before we can release it and make sure there are no bugs in it. This takes time. Please be patient while the developers get the other features working, it will not help anyone if we release a version that has errors and bugs. We are all in the same situation.

Hi Sue the Tyke,

The new HTML5 version is a restricted version, many features are not available at present, but will be restored over the coming weeks. Fuel, will appear if it is being used, however, when you stop working, you will notice the fuel is getting added back, which in effect, you're not actually using any fuel.

We are all in this situation and have to be a little patient until the full game is restored, which in my opinion, is better and faster and potentially will allow more features that were previously not possible in flash.

While Flash is available, you can continue to do ships, trains and all the other features, which is why we left it running, we will continue to get as much restored as we possibly can while flash still works.

My PC was pretty adamant that I uninstall flash this morning. After I clicked "remind me later" three times it finally closed the little window and opened two big windows to close flash. I still didn't do it but want to give you a heads up on this.

Hi Jean's Farm,

Yes, Adobe and the browsers will insist you uninstall flash, please ignore this. If you do uninstall flash, you will not be able to load the flash version at all as Adobe will not allow you to install it again and you'll only have the HTML5 version available.

Keep flash on your computers until such time the browsers stop allowing flash to work, we will keep the flash game working for as long as possible so you can still use it for the features that are still missing.

We just ask to be patient while we try to add as many features back to the game in HTML5, it will be better in the end, just hang in there.

Thank you.

Did you uninstall it? if you did, unfortunately, you will not be able to load the flash version anymore as Adobe will not allow you to install it again.

For the moment, you will only be able to play in HTML5, i understand that it is restricted, and many features are missing, but unfortunately there is no way around this. We are trying to get the rest of the features working as quickly as possible, but this does take time and ask that you be patient, Farmtown will be better in the end.

Thank you for understanding.

Hi everyone,

Please do not uninstall flash, even tho Adobe advises that you do. Ignore this, while flash still works, and are able to load Farmtown using flash, you can keep using it for the features that are still missing in the HTML5 version.

We will keep flash running until such time as it stops working, or the browsers block it. The HTML5 Version is restricted, and we understand the frustration of a restricted version. Please rest assured that the developers are working 24/7 to get everything back as quickly as possible.

All we ask is to be a little patient while we work on this. It will be a far better game in the end.

Thank you all for understanding.
