Information
Full Name: Shockwave Flash/Small Web Format
Opened with: Adobe Flash Player


A .swf ("Shockwave Flash" or "Small Web Format") is a flash extension file used by The Club Penguin Team when designing rooms, player cards, penguins, games etc. When you open a .swf room (for example, like this .swf file), no penguins appear, because it is just a local .swf file.

History

  • When Club Penguin started, the only .swfs were the rooms.
  • After the French and Portuguese servers came, the .swfs turned into only French and Portuguese and barely any .swfs are English.
A .swf of the Town on the map.
Inside Dance Contest's .fla (.swf files are made from editable .fla's).

Trivia

  • All penguins in .swf's are the color Dark Black.
  • Everything in Club Penguin has a .swf file.
  • Some .swfs are deleted when they will not be used again.
  • The .swf's of the games just shows one color, everything else in the game is hidden in the script of the .swf, that tells it to not show a frame unless it is a real game.
  • The .swf backgrounds of the music are white because they are not combined with their picture counterpart that the music goes with.
    • However, there is one remaining .swf of Penguin Chat 3 with both music and a picture.
  • The flash.swf keeps Club Penguin running.
  • The Club Penguin Team deletes old .swf files, probably because they need more space.
  • Hacking devices such as CP Trainer and Penguin Storm are made using flash .swfs.
  • Most .swfs are not deleted, they are updated, like the Town on the map.
  • When the April Fools Day 2009, Safari Hat Pin and the Music Jam 2009 and toy sailboat pin came out too early it made some of the items unavailiable.
  • Some games in .swf form are unavailable in Club Penguin.
  • On the Exclusive Rockhopper Background .swf there is an uncolored puffle and Rockhopper's signature.
  • If you try to type "undefined" for either a penguin name or password, an orange box will pop up, displaying the message "You need to enter your username/password to enter Club Penguin". This is because flash considers "undefined" a null object (basically, it would be the same if you typed nothing).
  • Club Penguin is made with Adobe Flash.
  • When something in Club Penguin is changed or updated, the .swf automatically updates itself.
  • shell.swf has 9098 lines of code.
  • The Halloween Party 2009 .swf's was released too early.
