Hello, >From what I understand from the lightspark website (1) and the wikipedia page >about lightspark (2), - Gnash is both a free standalone flash player and flash plugin for Actionscript 1&2 - Lightspark is also both a free standalone flash player and flash plugin but primarily for Actionscript 3. For Actionscript 1&2, it relies on Gnash. - Lightspark, while older than Ruffle, is, right now, more advanced and your best bet albeit being not fully functional In order to test it, I just downloaded the Lightspark Windows installer in a Windows 10 VM. The standalone client crashed when trying to play the swf sample file I passed as a parameter, complaining about OpenGL. To test it in Linux, it has to be built it from source (1) https://lightspark.github.io/ (2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightspark
