New flash project player released!

[Edit: player updated to v164 10/17/12 1:40pm EST]

Thanks to many helpful bug reports from Scratchers, we've just pushed a "Release Candidate" version of the Flash player! You'll notice that the player window looks a little different than it used to. This is because it's closer to the way the window will look in Scratch 2.0, which we're hoping to release by the end of the year.

As always, there's no such thing as bug free software, so if you find a bug, please report it on the the Flash player bug thread so we can check it out:

http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=105896

After another week or so of testing, we're planning on making this the new 'default' player for the current Scratch website (but you'll still be able to opt into the old Java player for now, at least until Scratch 2.0 is released).

Scratch On!

Awesome! Yeah, the new look fits in much better with the 2.0 look and feel.

Yes, the new player looks awesome, but I was a little confused at first, then I remembered what the scratch 2.0 prototype looked like.

Re: New flash project player released!

The only bad thing is i can't do shift-click pres. mode now to make it real full screen.

i hope they put that back in 2.0!


Make it in Scratch! because it's cooler when it's made in scratch

Re: New flash project player released!

Hmm, I like the design, but it messes up the variables; the bottom part of each number is cut off and you can hardly read it. I like the different design with the professional-looking white gradient on the top, gradient=professional. xD

Gradients are AWESOME!!! What is it about nice shiny things that interests me? meh...

Anyhoo [/ot]

Can you give any little hint about where scratch 2.0 is dev wise?

Re: New flash project player released!

Really cool, but I'm not sure whether the colour scheme blends with the website currently. Is there a option to use the old Flash player? Perhaps the old one could replace the Java player RIGHT NOW!

It's okay, I guess. I'm not real excited about 2.0 because it is reminds too much like FaceBook XD

lol, I don't like facebook either, never bothered to be an active facebook-user. Perhaps with the new design, it will attract more people and we could get more views on our projects?
