I just want to download swf files without installing anything. Then I'll load them up in real Adobe Flash (Flash Projector).

Flashpoint runs without installing anything via the ZIP version. It's FOSS software so no issue there I hope?

I don't meet the system requirements. This is an old OS hence why I have real Adobe Flash.

Use a newer machine to grab the files then transfer them?
You must have one somewhere, you're chatting on HN with a modern SSL certificate.

I'd have to spin up a VM which is entirely too much effort for this. I wish they just let you download the files.

Yeah that's the biggest issue with Flashpoint. AFAIK many games are hardcoded to load files from certain URLs and Flashpoint does patches & emulations of server calls. Support for sytems other than Windows is also wonky...
Can just grab them out of the cache once they've been downloaded, wherever they're stored.
