Since YoWorld Streaming is running the game from a remote computer, it is not currently possible to save to your local machine while using streaming.


Edit: That said, I've sent this along to our magical Fix-It Vikings and they are going to see if there is anything they can do to get it working.

Tried stream and it works fine... Little bit blurry, but it works

Playing on app and Idk is it me and my new HD in PC, but it is much faster.

TY

I have just heard from one of our devs that the issue with the white screen SHOULD be fixed now.

If you refresh, it shouldn't' happen anymore. Please let me know if it continues though.

isn't this going to be difficult with everyone keep being booted off the game every 5 mins? or will that issue be fixed by monday?

The same thing happened to me when I tried the streaming. Doesn't work well at all. I could only stay in a couple of minutes at the most and I tried several times.

Unfortuantely, there is nothing we can do about Gameroom since it isn't our platform. Gameroom, as a platform, is being shut down by Facebook though, so I would advise using our Desktop App if you can.

[b]I downloaded Yoworld months ago on Mozilla Firefox and have been using it ever since then when first notified to do so. With no problems loading or playing. Now I can't say what will happen after flash leaves but from how they did java yrs ago they then said remove it I did not -I had games that still use it-- just as I do lots of flash games on my desktop downloaded to desktop. I just click java on to play them games and same for flash. I will not be removing it it does not effect my security or internet service at all . You will just have to turn it on to use it. But I haven't clicked it since downloading game. May have to click it back on after this time it goes off. Will have to let everyone know but I doubt it. Just as my Java its still on my computer and still does updates believe it or not it does LOL I think leaving flash is your option . I am leaving mine on my computer to use.

Its not Yoworld or BVGs fault, Adobe is stopping Flash which the game currently uses.

Why bother reporting? YOU NEVER fix ANY problems. It's a complete waste of our time.

HTML 5 is pure dog sht! It's slow and sucks. So many sites that used flash and changed over. Have totally ruined their site.

Ok finally download it. Start to do my gem event and it is so slooow and it keep freezing. But still cannot play on the gameroom since the message to download is not going away. This is the main game that i play please fix it so that i can play on the gameroom.

PS: My mom says that her game is slow too and hope you can fix it as well.

hello community & game forum I have already downloaded the desktop app for my computer. i started playing because yoworld is free and i hope it will always be free not only in 2021.I also hope that with this change I don't lose all my purchases in houses, clothes, hair etc. happy new year community forum and to all my friends in the game

Viking Andrew wrote:Hey YoFans,

I'm sure many of you remember that we did some testing for YoWorld Streaming last week. After successfully testing it with everyone, we are now ready to roll it out fully!

YoWorld Streaming will be going live TODAY at 20:00 UTC(Game Time), 3:00 PM ET, 12:00 PM PT.

Want more info? Check out below:

What is YoWorld Streaming?

• This feature allows you to stream YoWorld live from our servers. This is similar to something like Netflix where you don't actually download the movie you're watching, but instead, are streaming it from Netflix's servers.

What will this change?

• You will notice a different screen when YoWorld is loading. Some players may experience the loading period taking anywhere from 30-60 seconds longer than normal. You may also experience some performance and quality issues. There also might be a bit of lag between your input and what is reflected in-game.
  
  
  • If you click "Download YoWorld" on the screen below, you will get the YoWorld Desktop App. If you click "continue streaming on flash player free version of YoWorld" you will be taken to YoWorld Streaming
    

Who will be using YoWorld Streaming?

• All YoFans playing through Firefox and Chrome will automatically be using YoWorld Streaming.

What if I don’t use those browsers?

• You can download the YoWorld Desktop App and play normally through that. Or you can download the browsers from the links below. Otherwise, the game will be inaccessible until HTML5 is released.

When will HTML5 be launching?

• Currently, we are working with a date of mid-January. But that is tentative and may change.

I’m already on the Desktop App, so what does that mean for me?

• You can continue to play and enjoy YoWorld the same as you have been without any interruption at all!

Having trouble? Here’s some helpful tips!


Very Slow Loading?

Try refreshing the webpage. If that doesn’t help, download the Desktop App from the links above.

Poor image quality?

This is expected for some players. There is no way to fix this other than getting the Desktop App.

Other issues?

Please report them in this thread for us to investigate!

EDIT:

Update: There is an issue with the game going to a whitescreen periodically for some players. This is being investigated.

Sorry, the streaming takes too long, is too fuzzy for too long, you spoil your eyes if you try that for a while. Strangely, here we can watch movies streaming completely normally. So I don't understand that it takes so long for the side in Yo to build up sharply.

I would like to use the desktop game, but that doesn't work here.

We are 3 players on one device. (Laptop Lenovo V510; Win 10; Firefox)
Since we are electro-sensitive, we still use DSL. So no WLAN, but modem via LAN cable to the device. With streaming, of course, it takes too long for each image to build up.

Hence my question: Why is it not possible for everyone to use the desktop game, but only one?

If a second player tries to download the desktop game in another folder and start it ... even if this folder has a different name and / or you add a name to the exe (YoWorld-Koji.exe), it will still the game of the FIRST who has downloaded the desktop game will open. And that doesn't work at all.

I had hoped that a second game could be created, which is started via a separate link in the front ... so a link for each player, but unfortunately not ... Shake your head

What can we do to still play the desktop game all 3? Because we saw that things were going great here.
Of course none of us have cell phones ... just our landline connection.

Please help! The 3 of us have been playing YoVille since 2009/2010. Up until now it didn't bother that only one person could use the desktop game. But with streaming, it just breaks your eyes. Wouldn't it be otherwise possible to make HTML5 available now? or how long does it take before everyone can use it? That would work fine here. I know that from FishWorld.

What the people who play on the
Tablets or iPads

I'm sorry to hear that you feel this way. We fix various things every day. We've already fixed multiple issues YoFans reported with streaming just in the past few hours.

If you let me know what you're having trouble with, I'll be happy to pass them along to the team.

Oh no this is 100% bvgs fault. Everyone has known for years that Flash was going bye bye, but Bvg has questionable leadership, and reluctance to modernize. Aside from that players have received very little communication from Bvg unless there’s an uproar on forums. This is why Bvg has yet to develop a single popular game title!

BVG has never officially supported or endorsed playing YoWorld on anything other than PC/Mac/Linux. Puffin has never been officially supported by them.

There was always a risk of Puffin not working with YoWorld.
