    Inno games, Elvenar will not play in FireFox version 63.

    This appears to be a known issue as I found this while searching the internet:

    Mozilla bug 1412090 - Some Fonts Display as Blank due to content-process sandbox:

    > VERIFIED FIXED in Firefox 58
    Except it is not fixed or something else is going on or it has returned!

    Edit: Why is a colon ilegal in the title of a forum post?
    Just to remind users and devs that Ubuntu and its flavors have a long way to go to be as usr friendly as they should be.

    What does this bug report have to do with the game, again

    What do the Elvenar folks say?
    Does it work in other browsers (Chromium/Opera/Falkon?whatever)?

      The game reports that the game doesn't load so I was thinking it might be a font issue. That seems like this bug but maybe something similar. Where are the fonts stored in 18.10 maybe FF can't find them or maybe they don't all install.

      The Elvenar folks have not replied yet. The error report from the game suggests using a different browser. Why should I be forced to use another browser? FF 63, should be capable of anything these days. Maybe I need to change an about setting. Mozilla says the about in the Linux version is because there are some custom Linux versions out there that don't always work with the defaults.

      Strange that Forge of Empires works but Elvenar does not. They are both from Inno Tech. Both games work with the flash player plugin. Is there a newer flash plugin that just hasn't made it to the main repositories yet? When FoE told me I needed flash player, instead of going to adobes link I launced muon and installed from the Ubuntu repos. FoE began working after I refreshed and gave FF permission to use flash. I give FF to run flash for Elvenar and it starts to load then gives the load fail message.

      I am going to bed so it will be a few hours for my next post after you respond.
