Question

PPAPI vs NPAPI using Chrome & Opera playing Farmville 2 issue with PPAPI

Browser Opera - version 29.0.1795.54600

Windows 8.1 - 64 Bit

Flash Player Version - 18.0.0.194 - NPAPI  & PPAPI

This is my first time posting anything in a forum. I am concerned with the performance I experience when trying to use Adobe Flash Player PPAPI version,

NPAPI works fine. I'm wondering if there is a setting I might be able to adjust to enable PPAPI to work correctly. I am going to attach 2 screen shots:

the first one is using NPAPI - notice the size of the icons, the number of neighbors I have at the bottom of my screen, and the size of the information

at the top of my screen (coins, Dollars, favors, level, feed, water, fertilizer, and energy).

this screen shot is using PPAPI - the icons at the top and the bottom are very big and there are less neighbors showing -

also, when I use PPAPI, the game is glitchy and very slow, and the size of everything makes the game pretty much worthless to play.

Sorry for the delay!  Can you try changing the "change the size of all items" slider from "larger" to "smaller"?  Smaller is the default setting.

Hi Linda,

Is your browser purposely zoomed out?  Can you set it to 100% zoom level and tell me if you see both the large icons and performance problems?

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

Thank you for your response. I upgraded Flash to the latest version of PPAPI and zoomed the browser to 100%. The problems are still there. I took a couple screen shots to show you. I wish I knew what is wrong - my husband also has a newer computer and he is able to use PPAPI without these issues.

That's odd, here are my browsers running on Windows 8.1 at 100% zoom level.  They look about the same to me, though Firefox has cut off the plant food and fire icons in the top right...

Firefox - NPAPI

Chrome - PPAPI

Internet Explorer - ActiveX

Out of curiosity, what is your system's screen resolution?  Do you know if you've changed the DPI settings on this system?  When you go to other flash content (eg. Starling Demo - The Cross Platform Game Engine) are the buttons larger in PPAPI than they are in NPAPI?
