where game save data?
is it in the registry?

just keep the zip file and extract it and then replace its contents

Roaming\Macromedia\Director MX 2004\ffxRunnerHD\Prefs\ffxSetup.txt
but any edit to the file just reset it

pretty sure this was a game on miniclips called on the run 

it was, but ffx runner is the original game.

thanks for the awareness but was it necessary to use a slur?

(1 edit)

I understood why to some users this game won't launch. this happens if you have an Nvidia GPU and Windows 10 / 11.

Solution:

1. Open Regedit

2. Go to: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video"

3. Search for "InstalledDisplayDrivers" with CTRL + F, and check only the "Values" checkbox

4. Open the file and paste this:

5. Restart the PC

Remember to make a backup first!

tried this but I'm still havin trouble getting the game starte

(1 edit)

same.  do you need flash player or shockwave or something?  i'd prefer to have  the game as a standalone exe instead of downloading  Flashpoint since it's such a small game that doesn't receive updates or have workshops and other stuff like steam games do.  i've installed director, flash player and shockwave and nothing works

ayo whats the music it a bop

this game isnt that good but still have some fun to play

(+4)

I remember playing this many, many years ago on some website, glad I was able to find this again.

And as expected, the train is still a nuisance lol

(+2)

I must have been about 10 years when I played this lol

(+1)

Yeah, same here

Hello, can you add a feature which allows the player to completely mute the music? In all honesty, I hate the loud music that the game has.

Good suggestion, anyway, I'm not sure I'm able to edit the project anymore, haven't tried running Director for years, so, I don't know if it works on current computers

do you still have that other game where that ferrari 430 is featured?

(+1)

Would like to try this, but it doesnt start. Win10, newest Nvidia driver on a modern card.

Really a nice tribute to the original game. I really appreciate it. I still remember playing On the Run on Miniclip. I would just wish that the car AI in this game would be a little bit smarter.

wish i could play! game wont open on windows 10

I just downloaded this game but it won't open for me. I tried running it as admin, changing compatibility settings, but nothing's working. I'm on Windows 10 by the way.

Hi, I just tried the game on Windows 10 and it works fine, it may be a graphic card issue that is not supporting the old direct x driver but it's hard to say from a distance

by the way, have you tried the FFX Runner Undead Rods playable demo? https://ffx.itch.io/ffx-runner-undead-rods

it seems this game requires shockwave player 10 which has reached end of life

(1 edit)

it should not require anything special installed on your machine

I’ve tried everything even launching it from the folder no clue why it won’t run  

what OS are you using?

windows 10 

I can’t work out why it won’t work

Yea, your PC needs to be repaired. Works 100% fine for me.

Not working on my Mac, application shuts down before it can open at all. Anyone having this?

My wine program opened when I downloaded it. Maybe try wine?

Hi will you be making a linux version?

(+2)

Hey, could you please upload the original in addition to the HD version? Or are there technical issues with that?

Yellow one looks like a later model Renault 5 presumably a GT Turbo (not to be mixed with a normal Turbo which is a rally car) and the orange one looks like a modern 911 Porsche.

Thanks you saved my searching time lol
