[Deutsche Version weiter unten]

Hello (:

I'm using Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca (32 bit) and Firefox 36.0 (Mozialla Firefox for Linux Mint - 1.0).
I installed Pipelight, enabled Unity, installed the user agent switcher and added the general.platform.override string to my Firefox configurations.

If I open the Tropical Paradise it says:

This appears to be the first time you are playing this game on this computer.
Please click on Setup & Play below to be able to play!

I clicked on "Setup & Play" and accepted to run the application.
Next it seems like it's loading something, because some little boxes appear, but nothing happens...

I also tried to play Ghoul Catchers on Facebook. That game is the reason why I wanted to install Unity.
But it always redirects me to this site:
https://apps.facebook.com/973708189321607/?fb_source=unity_installer%2Csearch&ref=ts&fref=ts&app_id=973708189321607
and wants me to install Unity....

Did I do something wrong? What can I do to solve the problem?

Hallo (:

Ich nutze Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca (32 bit) und Firefox 36.0 (Mozialla Firefox for Linux Mint - 1.0).
Ich habe Pipelight installiert, Unity aktiviert und habe auch den user agent switcher installiert. Außerdem habe ich den general.platform.override string in der Einstellungsdatei im Firefox geändert.

Wenn ich jetzt versuche Tropical Paradise zu öffnen, steht dort:

This appears to be the first time you are playing this game on this computer.
Please click on Setup & Play below to be able to play!

Also habe ich auf "Setup & Play" geklickt und habe es auch akzeptiert, dass die Anwendung ausgeführt wird. Dann schien es so, dass irgend etwas lädt, weil auf dem Banner kleine Boxen erschienen sind, die sich bewegen. Aber weiter passiert nichts /:

Ich habe auch versucht Ghoul Catchers auf Facebook zu spielen, was auch der Grund ist, warum ich mir Unity überhaupt holen wollte :D
Jedoch werde ich jedes Mal zu dieser Seite weiter geleitet:
https://apps.facebook.com/973708189321607/?fb_source=unity_installer%2Csearch&ref=ts&fref=ts&app_id=973708189321607
und es will darum auch immer, dass ich Unity installiere...

Hab ich irgend etwas falsch gemacht? Gibt es etwas, das ich tun kann um mein Problem zu lösen?

Hi,

I just tested "Ghoul Catchers" and it seems to work, it loads and asks me to create a Neopets account.

I don't know what is going wrong, but as first step i would suggest to execute "sudo pipelight-plugin --create-mozilla-plugins" and restart firefox. This might already fix the problem if firefox had problems loading the problem last time.

If this doesn't help, we can maybe figure out the problem if you provide some more debug output. First you should show us the output of "pipelight-plugin --system-check" and then create a debug log as described at http://pipelight.net/cms/faqs/faq-how-to-capture-debug-output.html when trying to load an Unity application.

Launchpad does not support attaching files to questions, so you will need to upload the output somewhere (for example pastebin.com).

Michael

Thank you for your answer (:

Executeing "sudo pipelight-plugin --create-mozilla-plugins" worked... maybe xD
If I visit the Tropical Paradise Website, a demo appears at the top of the site.

But Ghoul Catchers still don't work. It is now playing music and it's loading. But that's it. It is loading and loading and so on...
I don't know if my system or the game is the problem...

I created a debug output here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/51hp0dj54tdn546/pipelight.log?dl=0

The file also contains the output of "pipelight-plugin --system-check", the debug output starts at line 62.

After rebooting my computer, I did the 'create mozilla plugins' once more and made sure to do enable unity3d again.
Than I started my firefox and I got the unity to load. However now the browser shows FX9 is needed.
I am running it on an Asus Eeepc 1000HE with an onboard Intel Graphic Card. My best guess is that the graphic card simply isn't strong enough to run Unity web player. Apparantly Unity upped their system requirements recently, and therefor a lot of older machines can now not run the webplayer anymore. A pitty really, but nothing pipelight can fix I am afraid.
