Hey everyone, my brother loves this little shockwave game, but he can't play it on my macbook because I can't get the plugin to properly display.

I know about the solution where you run safari/firefox in rosetta mode, but I can't do this using firefox (not sure if this is normal or because I used Xslimmer on it), and even though I can't launch Safari in rosetta, it still won't display.

Any help?
Thanks
 
What happens when you try to run firefox in rosetta? Do you get an error message or anything?
 
Do you have Shockwave installed. Flash is usually installed by default, but Shockwave is something you have to install yourself. Adobe.com has it.

I have already downloaded Shockwave, but I just noticed a few things.

The shockwave guide says to run safari in emulation and THEN download/install shockwave. I had already downloaded it. So I'm going to try that, but do I download the intel or powerpc version? (I know I have an intel processor, but I'm not sure if rosetta changes which version I need)
