Fox Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Currently, the easiest way to use Hero Factory is by using the version hosted on our site, accessible via that link. Please also see here, where a very helpful player has put together a translation guide! But not everyone can access this program, it's a little wonky on current versions of Flash, and sometimes you just want to have a hero factory of your very own. I've put together a little package here that'll let you have your own copy of Hero Factory. You can extract this .zip file anywhere you like on your computer; it contains the following files: fabrica.swf through fabrica4.swf These are the actual flash files for Hero Factory. They are, sadly, not in English; there's no way around this that I'm aware of, shy of decompiling the whole dang thing and translating by hand. flashplayer_10_sa.exe This is the FlashPlayer 10 stand-alone executable; it is straight from Adobe, who have since taken it down (or just hidden it terribly well) on their website. It truly is stand-alone - it won't install anything on your system, or replace anything you currently have installed. launch_hero_factory.bat This is a tiny two-line batch script that'll run Hero Factory for you, using the FlashPlayer 10 stand-alone. Nothing fancy here; you can open it up in notepad if you want to look at it. To run, just double-click the .bat file. Shoot me an e-mail if the link for the .zip file goes bad, and I'll re-upload it somewhere. It was last re-uploaded to DropBox 2016/04/28. Link to comment
Azuth65 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 As per request Fox, replying to warn you the link in step 1 has stopped working. Marked "ERROR: This file is marked illegal (a7bc2095)". Link to comment
Fox Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 So it has. I have uploaded the file somewhere myself, and updated the link. If it disappears again, let me know and I'll see about other hosting, or about bribing Sorus to let us hide it on the forum server somewhere. Link to comment
April Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 This is a useful thread. Applying some glue. Link to comment
N/A Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 As of July 9th, 2013, it doesn't look like a pre-11 version of Flash Projector is available for download from Adobe anymore. Link to comment
Fox Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 I'm away from home at the moment, but when I get back I'll see what I can do about putting a copy of the pre-11 player somewhere.EDIT:Home now. But since I'm going to have to upload the player now, too, I may as well package everything together. Working on it.... Link to comment
horngeek Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 As of December 13th 2013, the link to download Hero Factory doesn't work, with a 'access limited or infringement of copyright' message. Link to comment
April Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Fox, once you have the package assembled, upload it here.Or give it to me and I'll tuck it somewhere safe. Link to comment
Fox Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 As promised so very long ago, I've finally gotten around to re-packaging the darn thing with the flash player you need and a little batch file to save people some clicking.First post updated; lemme know if anyone has trouble.

The Sailor Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 If needed, I got a box account I can use to host this if necessary. Just putting that out there. (That and I'd love to have it there so if I need to DL it again, I got it in one place...) Link to comment
macabreengel Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 I don't know if people already know about this, but hero machine has a lot of options and is in English. Link to comment
