Restored some old flashes...
From 11840 flashes to 13231 flashes, that's +1391

Thanks for users iopi and Aldyhm for letting me know. :-D

#2 - mRkukov - 02/04/2018 - 21:48

Aw. I might as well ask something I've been thinking about. Are there going to be more advent calendars in the future or is the idea discontinued?

#3 - aujek - 02/27/2018 - 23:33

If I have time to make one, then yes. Well see in 9 months if it's calendar or not. :-P

Hello, im looking for a old flash animation. It was about a men who looked for perfect girlfrend. At end he died alone. I remember it was styled as NES game. Someone have it?

Sry for my english ;)

Hello, is there any way to download full collection, like in torrent or something?

#10 - ahmos - 05/26/2019 - 10:31

Looking for hestekor, the singing horses

#11 - André - 05/02/2020 - 05:38

hestekor is still under the same url as it's always been: https://dagobah.net/flash/hestekor.swf unless I'm mistaken or you're asking for something completely different

#12 - aujek - 05/09/2020 - 19:58

Just want to say I'm happy this place exists and that I discovered it this year, it's a very nostalgic trip down memory lane, being a child in the 2000s and doing a lot with flash games and animations. I hope that this place stays around for some time, and I thank you for hosting these important pieces of the internet's history.

#13 - PikaFan15 - 06/02/2020 - 10:56

mRkukov, are there any plans with Dagobah regarding the December 31st Flash player EOL? Since the IE, Chrome and Firefox will completely block Flash, I fear that virtually all of the traffic (except the few people who keep coming here regularly and will intentionally bypass the block) will permanently go away. Does this mean end of the Dagobah?

#14 - Ludolph - 07/18/2020 - 01:06

I share the concern about the EOL for Flash and the general forced removal from browsers. Is there a plan to get the flash parts of the site archived for download, or to convert or somehow otherwise make the flash entries playable? I'd hate to see those disappear.

#15 - Ery - 07/19/2020 - 09:13

#16 - Jemar Yusuf - 10/06/2020 - 22:56

Well, it's December 2020. F's in the chat for Flash.

#17 - CB012 - 12/02/2020 - 00:18

Seems the admin has abandoned the site for at least two years now, though he/she still pays for the domain and server costs. Adobe will start blocking all Flash content beginning on 12 January next year. I said "blocking" because they won't and don't have the rights to remove any Flash content all around the net without their creator's permission. So the files are still there as long as site owners don't deliberately remove Flash content from their servers. Better start learning on how to extract swf files from websites and keep them in your local storage for offline use or joining a preservation project like BlueMaxima's FlashPoint if you care enough about part of your childhood that will soon go away.

#18 - AnonKnows - 12/12/2020 - 12:27

I wouldn't say they've abandoned it for two years, that's only how long it's been since they last updated it. They were still accepting uploads until October 22 this year. They also repaired the server when it went down on October 14 this year. They said that there was a major problem with the UPS system that they had to repair. This also makes me think that whoever the admin is uses their own server rather than hosting this site on a web server.

#19 - Quans - 12/14/2020 - 04:43

I really hope this site doesn't go away with the end of Flash. I've already been just opening SWF files with the standalone player for some time now without issue, and I hope other users won't have trouble doing it this way. This site is an amazing archive for so much amazing content, and with how rich Flash's history is, I'd be surprised if it died so easily with the removal of the browser plugin. Maybe that's wishful thinking, but people have managed to keep other things alive in amazing ways before.

Not trying to get into anything else since I've already stated my point, but it really is sad to see a platform like Flash be kicked to the curb with no viable replacement (loosely-connected HTML/JS/resource/etc. files are NOT a valid replacement for a single, compiled file that can be easily saved, preserved, and redistributed). Flash has brought so much joy to so many people (which I do not believe is in any way an overstatement) and is an important part of the Web's history. I hope projects like Ruffle will help keep it alive for us and for future generations.

#20 - Wallu - 12/19/2020 - 07:23

We are not dead, just absent :-)

I am one of the moderators we had, and probably the last active one. I am not the owner, that title goes to mRkukov.

I've been dealing with a lot of worsening issues leading to less and less time to do the moderating work. Pure loss of of interest and Flash support getting closer and closer to the axe are also to be blamed. It seemed pointless to keep moderating what felt like a dead site holding content made with a soon-to-be-dead technique. At some point the thumbnail generator stopped working. That was my excuse to stop coming here. I had talked with mRkukov about my situation before, I suppose that's why he hasn't asked me to come back.

Come January 15th, and I've been a Dagobah moderator for 11 years, and the earliest comment on my older account is from 2007. Surely I've visited here even before that. This site is a treasure chest full of memories from my childhood, and I want to at least archive it in one way or another.

I'll try to get in touch with mRkukov and ask him about the End of Eva... Uh, Flash and the future of the site. In the meantime, let us know what you think; would you still visit here even after the support for Flash ends? Would you still like to see new content added to the gallery?

#21 - LordJebe - 12/28/2020 - 08:24

#21 Thanks for the news and for all your work over these years, LordJebe. Dagobah is a nostalgic treasure trove of cool stuff I liked in my mid teenage years (I came around 2010 and registered an account in 2013) and I'll keep coming back as long as I can still download the swf files and browse the comments, just for the old times sake.

As for the new content, I think it does make sense to use Dagobah to preserve the swf content not yet archived here from complete oblivion. But I'm not sure how it could be achieved when most of the user base, moderators, and even mRkukov are absent and when there are issues with disappearance of the old content (for example, there definitely was a swf called perjantaiiii.swf of Ninja Turtles dancing to Darude Sandstorm - I think it was here even after the 2018 issue with missing flashes but now it's gone).

Anyway, it has been a hell of a ride with Dagobah in these past 10 years and I'm so glad I could be here. It's no overstatement to say that Dagobah had a big impact on my life - through Dagobah, I discovered Touhou Project and anime. And through these, I met a girl who is now my fiancée :-)

#22 - Ludolph - 12/29/2020 - 01:06

Hello everyone.

The last two and half years have been so busy and heavy for me personally that I have not had any time for the site - nor anything else really.

I don't know how Adobe will disable the flash plugins but I have understood that you are not able to use it anymore in any browser. My question is how this changes the "standalone flash players" that you can run on desktop. Are we still able to run these flash-files in desktop? Time will tell. I won't delete this site without a notice. Most likely I will create some kind of read-only version so I can keep it running "forever". I might also make a zip or something to DL everything at once... I don't really know what would be the best thing to do.

For adding more content I think there is no point of doing so. These files that are already here should be safe to run even after the EOL. These have been antivirus tested and should not contain any harmful code... but I cannot guarantee that. I think the best way is just to keep everything as they are.

For me this site is easily the longest project I have been working. It's over 16 years since the start. It's a long time. This site is older than youtube. :) I'm really happy that we have so many faithful users that have been coming back again and again.
I'll try to keep this site up as a piece of Internet history. Thank you for everyone that have been providing content for the site. I think it's quite unique site and it has really went through a lot.

This End Of Life for Flash player is something we cannot revert. It was nice technology back in days. Now we have to move forward.

I have had great moments making the site. I hope you have also had many great moments with these flashes. At least I have.

Thank you everyone!

#23 - mRkukov - 12/30/2020 - 14:41

It was a great time. Thank you for this site and for all the work through all these years. Happe new year and move forvard!

#24 - Alewred - 12/31/2020 - 02:32

Thank you all, especially admins, for all these years. This site is Internet history and a part of my childhood and I would highly appreciate it being available going forward. Cheers!

#25 - TROU - 01/02/2021 - 02:08

Please don't kill the site! I made this to make using the site easy going forward (it's a portable copy of Waterfox with integrated Flash):

https://drive.google.com/file/d/104q8Xy7XOT7j8MWbBPuVT L2zzWHbHsJB/view

#26 - Random - 01/03/2021 - 04:29

Great fun times on this site especially sometime around 2010. Thank you!

#27 - Name - 01/04/2021 - 09:31

@Admin, just like several other flash portals that I know, why don't you integrate Dagobah.net with Ruffle? It's a free and open-source flash emulator that's still in active development. Most animations here should work with it.

#28 - AnonKnows - 01/16/2021 - 05:24

You can easily edit mms.cfg used by your browser+plugin combination to include

AllowListUrlPattern=*://dagobah.biz
AllowListUrlPatte rn=*://dagobah.net
EOLUninstallDisable=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable =0

It seems to get overwritten each time Flash settings window is opened, and that removes every whitelist entry but the last one (super reliable corporate engineering, Adobe!). You might want to revoke file access rights or have a proper copy to restore.

#29 - iopi - 01/22/2021 - 17:13

Oh, and to play old and unsupported Flash®™ files in something like old and unsupported MPC-HC®™, not just official standalone player, add

EnableInsecureAllowListLocalPathMatching=1
AllowListUrlPa ttern=file:*

That should be enough for self-contained flashes. It there are additional network requests, install a debug version of flash plugin and enable logging, then add other exceptions for that content.

#30 - iopi - 01/22/2021 - 17:54

Serious question, how much $ would it take for you to find a method such as ruffle to still let all the flash animations play?

I'm happy to contribute a good portion of $ to somehow restore all the animations that are now currently lost :/

#31 - David - 01/30/2021 - 15:35

Nothing is lost, stop reading stupid technically illiterate journalists.

#32 - iopi - 01/31/2021 - 14:44

Thanks AnonKnows for the Ruffle! I did not know such (a wonderfull) program existed.

I have integrated it into the page. I hope it works for most of you. Please inform if there is layout or other problems with the "flash" player pages.

So it's not the end of the Flash (content) at all! Please enjoy the page and almost all the old content. B-)

#33 - mRkukov - 02/02/2021 - 11:13

Glad to help ;-)

#34 - AnonKnows - 02/03/2021 - 08:27

very nice

#35 - aujek - 02/05/2021 - 10:01

Why I'm getting a white screen?

#36 - Goldluckboi - 02/08/2021 - 13:18

I ran some DB maintenance to make the site faster again.

#37 - mRkukov - 02/08/2021 - 13:18

Goldluckboi: most likely the flash you are trying to play does not work with Ruffle.

You can still use the "download" link to download the actual files and then run it with some other program.

#38 - mRkukov - 02/08/2021 - 13:19

Woo, it isn't gone.
So many memories about this site and Flash in general, it is/was such a great format as Wallu said, you could save it easily and play it without needing to worry about things. (Probably pretty good for creators as well.)
Maybe someday submissions will reopen but being able to keep what is already here is still great.
Thanks for all the good times and I hope you have many more.

#39 - Slith10 - 02/23/2021 - 03:55

Requesting account option to disable Ruffle and allow old SWF plugin to run, for those that can.
Ruffle is hit and miss. Also, it frequently locks up the page.

#40 - passer_by - 02/26/2021 - 09:17

Never know if I find time to install old plugins or someone else has time to make some kind of wrapper...

#41 - Vastustaja - 04/26/2021 - 22:09

Thanks for the memories! Have had many fun times with the content, especially on Assembly LAN conventions in my teens. Just realized I have an account with 1st comment on 2010 (couln't recall this lol I am old). Still got that collection of chosen downloaded .swf's for quick laughs and to look back on. Decision to keep the site online is very much appreciated. All the best to fellow users, the moderators and mRkukov!

#42 - amrojare - 09/09/2021 - 08:37

Thank you for everything. Good luck to you guys, forever.

#43 - Damankee - 09/18/2021 - 10:01

Seriously, Good luck to you, I register to say I hope for many more years of Dagobah so I can hopefully show my children what life was like on the early internet. Thank you for holding the flame so high, for so long. Flash aint dead!

#44 - Bibostin - 09/23/2021 - 02:05

Was interested in making a wiki to track archives and origins of flash files.
i found a bunch of 2chan flashes that weren't even on swfchan before i posed them

Because there is a ton of stuff that doesn't work in ruffle, lots of flash comes form dead sites

what i mean is I am looking for someone to share in an adventure that I am arranging, and it's very difficult to find anyone

#45 - SilverGildedHambone - 10/24/2021 - 05:11

Thank you to the team at Dagobah for keeping this slice of Internet history alive!

I remember back in the days when Flash was king. Although it may be deprecated that doesn't mean that the old games and animations that we enjoyed in our youth must die alongside it.

Long live the Internet of the early 2000s!

Dear GOD/GODS and/or anyone else who can HELP ME (e.g. TIME TRAVELERS OR MEMBERS OF SUPER-INTELLIGENT ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS):

The next time I wake up, please change my physical form to that of FINN MCMILLAN formerly of SOUTH NEW BRIGHTON at 8 YEARS OLD and keep it that way FOREVER.

I am so sick of this chubby Asian man body!

Thank you!

#46 - Chaul Jhin Kim - 11/05/2021 - 21:25

i cant download the flash files

#47 - cap - 02/15/2022 - 08:10

Wanted to say thanks for years of fun, been visiting this site on and off since I was about 9. I've got no idea how I found it, but every so often I'll see something and be reminded of an animation I saw on here what must have been a decade ago. This and a few other flash sites kept me going as a kid and I hope they did for a few other people as well. If anything about this is sad it's that I can't show my kids obscure and probably unfunny flashes that still crack me up to this day. Feel like a proper old man typing this, so again, just wanted to say thanks! Cheers, Flynn.

#48 - f( ... )o - 03/22/2022 - 18:23

Love you all don’t let the magic die :-[]

#49 - Mcross 1ze39jx - 05/07/2022 - 17:13

395 flashes are pending approval. :-)

#50 - WebGame2k - 06/18/2022 - 01:42

Old server went gone since the provider decided to kill all VPS. Now on new host. Please inform is something is broken. (something unusual)

#51 - mRkukov - 10/12/2022 - 18:12

The Hank Hill flash file seems to be missing?

It's this linK:
https://dagobah.net/flash/Hank_Hill_Soundboard.swf

#52 - Name - 10/25/2022 - 17:34

Hey, I'm getting a "Ruffle failed to load the required ".wasm" File component." error message on pretty much every flash, regardless of what browser I'm using (Tried Firefox Chrome and even Edge.) Is that just me or this for everyone?

Note: I can still download the flashes, they just won't play on site.

#53 - rtyu193 - 10/28/2022 - 00:07

Youre still active mRkukov?

#54 - WebGame2k - 11/12/2022 - 03:50

I guess the new server is why I can no longer load this website on an old web browser, as well as why the old URL for direct access to the flash files doesn't work anymore. I'm sad that accessing this site on old browsers became more difficult after Ruffle was added to the site, but now it's impossible and I don't think there will be a fix for that. I guess I'm stuck having to download flash files that simply don't work on Ruffle now, rather than just accessing them with the old direct link (change "flash" in the URL to "flashsfw").

Thanks for keeping this site alive, it may be much harder to use now that Ruffle is implemented and I can no longer access it on old browsers, but the fact it still exists is very nice. Love that you keep it up despite it not being super popular to look at flash websites anymore!

#55 - PikaFan16 - 12/18/2023 - 07:10

Would be great to have the option to enable/disable ruffle?

I know Newgrounds for example you can turn it on/off once logged in.

swfchan has a "use ruffle for playback" Checkbox

Or even just have the floppy disk icon allow the browser to open the swf in a tab, as currently it forces it to download

Anyway, appreciate the time and resources it takes to keep a website up!

#56 - ada101 - 12/22/2023 - 03:37

Thank you guys for all these years! Im logging in to dagobah time to time for some nostalgia.

Is there a way to support this site with dontation or something else?

#57 - Darkling - 12/29/2023 - 10:14

Hi I'm glad this site is still here.

#58 - animefanatic - 04/03/2024 - 22:11

This site is so awesome! :-P

#59 - CirnoChan - 05/30/2024 - 18:00

Hey guys! Nice to see this website is still around, really hits hard in the nostalgia. Thanks for keeping it up! Hope you are all living great lives filled with lots of happy moments.

#60 - Stalkking - 08/14/2024 - 22:59

Dagobah is a treasure. I hope I'll be able to return to this site for years to come

#61 - anon - 09/20/2024 - 01:22

What happened to all the nsfw flashes from old .biz site? I remember some raunchy flash files from those times, and you were able to search them with Google long after the end of the old .biz domain, but seems like it doesn't work anymore.
