Campaigns errors

Campaigns images don't load and also the rewards don't load.
I completed one campaign recently and the campaign now is incomplete, all the tiers. (Altered Reality)
When I select to go to the next tier it takes me to the campaign menu.
All errors I said are in Kongregate. in my EE account everything works fine.

Re: Campaigns errors

Campaigns images / reward images don't load because of how unwilling Xeno is to plop a crossdomain.xml into their domain for the images to work.
It's something to do with flash's crossdomain policy.

Re: Campaigns errors

Oh interesting, when did this start happening? I wonder if it was when we moved to GitLab hosting.

Okay, I think I'm a bit wrong, don't know about that but anyways, so it seems that EE does have crossdomain.xml, however there are few limitations that need to be solved.
I'm not a bit expert on this and also me and seb did experimenting with crossdomain xml, one way we found that work is that by putting a crossdomain.xml like this on the root of domain and you're probably set, I got a bit suspicious when I was suggested to do this but obviously this is just for flash so I doubt that would mean anything else to me. How I tested out was using a proxy and a custom crossdomain so I could load images and it will work:

▼Image of loaded campaign

tldr cos yes, you plop this crossdomain.xml into the heart of the domain: https://everybodyedits.com/crossdomain.xml <- You replace this site xml with the other xml.

Also there's another alternative way which I think is probably a bit more controlled if you want them localised in subfolders but idk.

Re: Campaigns errors

Been attempting to get this working this morning, tried about a dozen different configurations (including the one Snowster sent which looks like PlayerIO's) but so far I'm not getting the images to load on Kongregate. I'm guessing there's either a setting somewhere or something that needs done in the clientside code, going to try looking into that more soon.

(Reminder to be super careful about changing these sorts of things, Flash isn't a very secure platform and PlayerIO doesn't provide a secure 'remember me' service, so make sure you understand all the implications of any change before you make them or passwords could be at risk)
