Dice Escape won't load...

Thu Apr 05, 2007 12:34 am

I'm computer-stupid. I probably just have the wrong plugin or something, but I don't know. I went to download.com and downloaded the first thing that came up when I searched "shockwave" (here) but it still won't work. The page just sits at the loading page (robot chasing grundo, faerie stirring cooking pot, faeries flapping their wings.... those things) without doing anything no matter how many times I reload.

What am I doing wrong?

You're not the only one something like that has happened to before. Attack of the Slorgs wouldn't load for me one time and someone else posted an issue about dice escape in the game strategies & help forum. Most likely you just have to wait it out. Sorry but that seems to be the only way to make it work as long as you have the plugin installed properly.

^If you see the animation it's working. And as another test you could play a different shockwave game and see if that'll play. If it passes those just wait a couple of hours or a day and maybe Dice Escape will fix itself.

Attack of the Slorgs does load, and I can see the animation on that page.

Grrr. :/


Edit: Well, I solved my problem (sort of). It works in IE but not Firefox. I'd absolutely love to know how to get it to work in Firefox though, if anyone has any suggestions I'll love you forever. :)

Edit again: Oooook, it worked in Firefox, but my computer screeched to a halt while that window was open. I got my avatar, closed it, and everything was back to normal speed. I have no idea, I officially hate that game. :/ 'sa shame, it would be an easy 800np x3 per day.
