This one's been brought up before, but it's already in HTTP, so that's not the issue.

The problem is "Susie and Giles asleep at dictionary corner". I think the game may have relied on some exact way dictionary.com website used to be setup for this function to work. Because it no longer works and hasn't for quite some time, it is impossible to score most of the points in the game, and 2 medals become broken medals as a result. You cannot gain any of the bonus points as you are awarded a grand 0 points for each bonus word as long as Susie and Giles sleep.

W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L -- Finish the game with 100 points or more, is broken.

O-C-T-O-C-H-A-M-P -- Finish the game with 146 points or more, is broken.

The other 4 medals still function as they should.

Note, I have these two medals because I obtained them in the past before Susie and Giles went into permanent sleep mode. I do not believe they have been obtainable for quite some time.

All of the medals are unlockable because it won't load the flash format or the Newgrounds Player at all.

Will you fix it?

I disabled Ruffle on that - working now if you try to play the SWF?

No, it only plays on video format.

Does this link load the Flash version for you?

https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/536052/format/flash

No, it plays a video format instead.

Can confirm this doesn't work.

It still forces it to the non-flash version.

Also, in regards to Ruffle, it doesn't work, period. On a few things that force Ruffle (if you choose the flash version), it'll just be stuck on the title screen and you can't advance and clicks don't register. Would greatly prefer if Ruffle wasn't used at all and we were allowed to use our browser's flash players. Or at least if that were an option. Because as-is it just doesn't work.

I understand the concern for the flash support ending, but if people have set up their browsers to make flash work, then it should use the plugin in their browser, rather than Ruffle. And again I've gone over methods that can be used to make this work beyond the cutoff date for flash support ending.

Does me no good if my browser setup is perfectly good for flash, yet I can't play flash because Newgrounds stubbornly insists on forcing it through Ruffle, which doesn't work.

Fortunately it seems most stuff isn't forced through Ruffle, but yeah, just FYI, it doesn't work.

Ah I think it works on my end because I have "Use Newgrounds Player for Flash" checked off on my account settings - in your case it's still checking for the Flash plugin and the browser is telling it Flash isn't supported.

On Firefox Flash is still supported, I can turn it on and those submissions are loading as plain videos.

I downloaded the Newgrounds player and got all the medals from this movie in Firefox. The Newgrounds player has worked for me on movies:

4 Swords Misadventures 7

Africa Dudes

There is still three movies by the same author with medals, but I can't get to open them with Newgrounds Player.

These movies are:

4 Swords Misadventures 8,

4 Swords Misadventures 9

Warriors of the Portal

Btw, are there any other movies with medals? Is there a way to find them? For games, there is a special search feature of Games with medals, but as far as I know there is no such thing for movies.

The game freezes when you talk to the wise man after completing the first quest, which is probably when you are supposed to get the first medal. Latest medal unlocks are in September 2017 (except for @fanka6112 who got a few medals in December 2017), so it could be another HTTP issue.

Game freezes after you reach 10,000. Unlocks also stop in September 2017.

That is not a good solution because Newgrounds player is a Windows-only program. A good solution would be if Newgrounds didn't use Ruffle at all (if the user didn't want it to) and just reverted to using the builtin Flash plugin in the user's browser. That solution would work for everyone.

The problem is entirely that, at least with movies, if you choose to view as Flash content rather than embedded video, that Newgrounds currently forces Ruffle on it, and Ruffle is broken. When there is no good reason we shouldn't be able to say, in user settings, never use Ruffle always use browser plugin for Flash content.

And, again, going forward, this is possible for all as you can use Waterfox browser (if a 64-bit machine -- most of them these days) or Pale Moon browser (if an older 32-bit machine) and just put the NPAPI Flash plugin in that. That'll work indefinitely even beyond the Flash death cutoff point. And would work on Newgrounds too were it not for this Ruffle stubbornness. That is 100% what the problem is.

Now, I understand the motivation behind Ruffle. I understand the motivation behind the Newgrounds player. But what people need to understand is that those solutions don't work for everybody and there is literally no good reason not to allow the user to just use what their browser and builtin plugins can do, if the user so chooses, and if they got that setup to work just fine.

It's like trying to force games through an emulator versus playing them on the original console. It's never going to be as good, and oftentimes there are bugs in the emulation which were not present on the actual consoles, or the timing will be off, or other problems. Sure, you can use that if you have no other options, but the original is always preferable because anything else is at best an imitation, even however good an imitation it might be.

Medals do not work. Unlocks also stop in September 2017

I'd like to ask @bonchoelo @Andeer @rereclon and @MysticDolphin to either fix the medals in their latest games or remove those medals.

I will remove the medal, I wanted to remove it but I was doing some other things and got distracted. I will be sure to remove it soon, and thanks for the reminder :)

Dragonmyths medals do not work -- I guess they worked at once point, but now when you try to complete the first quest, it bombs (see the comments on the game).

 I finished Sonny 2, achievements in game were completed but NG did not recognize them. Anything I can do?

game has no medals but still shows up on my medal list. Here's the link to the game https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/620427

Should be cleared off your medal list now.

Hello - there was a report for medals not working at my game https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/657103

So far I've tried to fix it and re-uploaded a newer version - but it's opened as view-insecure on HTTP (why?) and seemingly drops the login data after that. In 2015 I used the library with some kind of third-party proxy http://ncase-proxy.herokuapp.com/www.ngads.com/gateway_v2.php (which now seemed to me like the source of problems), now I've used https://bitbucket.org/newgrounds/newgrounds.io-for-javascript-html5/src/master/bin/newgroundsio.js so everything should be ok in https.

We have an option to load things over HTTP instead of HTTPS but the toggle is actually missing on your project, I have a feeling when we updated the project system, the checkbox might have only remained for SWF content and not all games. Will get that sorted out soon!

Update - this should be fixed now where it's no longer loading over HTTP on NG!

Sadly there is still something wrong with the game and even more than just a medal. I just played it and in opposite to the original version it is not showing whether an answer you give is right or not. But that is not the main problem. Looks like the game counts answers badly. there are definitely more than 7 questions in one round of the quiz, but after I finished a round my final screen looked like this:

The same result is shown no matter what answers I pick, so now not only the medal is broken, but the whole game.

Thanks Tom, the game works on HTTPS now. My other submissions are now on HTTPS too, but the HTTP proxy they used for medals is still the same (e.g. medals are broken), so they need fixing on my side. But I guess it's the price of modern web.

Thanks HerbieG for pointing out that while fixing the medal I broke the both the ending screen and "Correct/Wrong" popup. You guys are awesome.

P.S. I'm honored someone still cares about my 5 year old submissions today.

I just checked on the quiz and now everything works perfectly. Including the medal.

Sure thing!

It doesn't seem like the three difficult medals are unlocking for me in Fireskulls.

Has anyone else tried for them? The game has already been transferred to insecure-view, so this error might not be related to the change to https.

I just tested it with a different account, and even the easy medal isn't unlocking. It's had pretty recent unlocks, so it's possible it's an issue on my end.

the og Henry Stickmin game has a medal bug, the mulan easter egg

Infiltrating the Airship

Hi all,

4 games worth mentioning, one with good news:

In its current state, Orange Roulette is not awarding medals. (https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/596354) However, this can be fixed by adding "format/flash" to the url. Is this an issue with its current emulation?

Drop Dead 3 (https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/566735) has some form of advertisement redirect in it when you try to start the game, it loads an unconfigured xml file.

And 2 new ones that are not set up correctly:

After five years, I decided to return to Abobo's Big Adventure to actually claim the medals with an account finally, but for some reason they don't work. The same goes for the brand new game Canon Drop. Is there a setting I'm unaware of on my end that's not letting them appear on my medals page?
