Scaling the display up relied on full screen scaling the movie, but games
that set StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE stay at their native size in full screen,
leaving a small game against black. At the exact stage size, full screen
fits every scale mode and the browser scales the stream.
A game is streamable when its platform is allowed (STREAM_PLATFORMS,
default Java, Shockwave and Flash) and its launcher resolves under the same
rules fp-command applies. The display is sized from what it launches:
Director movies including Afterburner .dcr and pre-7 VWCF configs, SWF
headers scaled up to fit 1280x960, a page's largest embed, or a projector's
stage. Dimensions are rounded up to even for H.264.
fp-command applies the launcher's rules to any application path: execs.json
mappings, .bat to .sh, and .exe under Wine, resolving paths case-insensitively
and splitting launch commands as the launcher's shell command would. Windows
programs run from a writable per-session mirror of the install, with Director
Prefs and Flash saves linked into the synced saves. OldCPUSimulator, which
hangs under Wine, becomes cpulimit; Flash projectors go full screen; and
Flashpoint Navigator's toolbars are hidden. This replaces the LocalGames case.
fp-launch runs a LocalGames .exe with Flashpoint's bundled Wine from a
writable copy, linking its Prefs directory, where Director projectors save,
into the synced saves directory. Players without a save start from the Prefs
the game ships with. The image adds the X, font and PulseAudio libraries the
bundled Wine loads.
Creates a streamer container per player on flashpoint-web's request, sized
to the game's applet, proxies its Selkies stream under /stream/<id>/, and
removes it when the player disconnects. Saves under /config/saves are
seeded from the browser at start and pushed back over server-sent events.
The JSObject stand-in kept cookies in memory, so saves were lost when the
game restarted. Write them to a file the session manager can sync, with the
policy granting only the agent jar access to that directory.
A Java agent removes them when the viewer window opens, so the stream
shows only the applet. JSObject moves into the agent jar, which puts it on
the class path applets load from.
appletviewer has no netscape.javascript.JSObject, so applets that touch
JavaScript fail to load, and Java 8 denies applets the URLPermission they
need to fetch through an HTTP proxy. Add a JSObject stand-in with a working
document.cookie and a policy granting HTTP URL access.
Runs a Flashpoint game natively in a container and streams it to the
browser. fp-launch follows the Linux launcher's sequence: start the game
server, mount the game's zip, and run startJava.sh through the proxy.
