ffrunner is a slim Wind32 application that hosts a single windowed Netscape Plugin instance in place of an NPAPI-compatible web browser. ffrunner was made to run FusionFall with zero 3rd-party dependencies. As such, it only implements APIs used by the Unity Web Player and contains some FusionFall-specific logic and file mappings, but it can be adapted to run any generic NPAPI plugin.
- a Unicode-aware window
- an asynchronous I/O threadpool with support for HTTP GET/POST through wininet
- configuration through command-line arguments
It is recommended to build ffrunner with mingw to minimize MSVC runtime dependencies, in which case you can build it with:
make
If you'd prefer to use MSVC, you can create a Visual Studio solution with:
cmake -B build
and find the solution in the build directory.
ffrunner loads the plugin file passed in through the -m argument.
- Wine's implementation of wininet does not do any HTTP resource caching
- When running FusionFall in Wine with ffrunner, scroll wheel inputs are occasionally ignored
