From Purchase to Play


1: Test

It's a good idea to try out the game online / online demos before purchasing to confirm that you your Flash plugin runs them to your liking.



2: Purchase

Purchase Orders
If you're a school and need to send a Purchase Order, fax it to 509-267-5590 or mail it to the address on the order form (see previous paragraph). An invoice will be then sent through the mail.



3: Download

Within 48 hours from when your payment is received, you will receive and email with a password and a link to the purchased downloads page. Go to that page, enter your password, agree to the usage terms and click the buttons to download your purchased software.

Most standard browsers download files to the desktop or your "Documents" folder by default. If you don't see downloaded files, do a search on the computer for either "mflyer" or "Multiflyer" and you will turn up your downloaded software.



4: Decompress

Software downloaded from the internet must be sent in decompressed or "zipped" format. This can make for an annoyingly complicated process, but unfortunately it's the industry standard for software delivery. Some recent operating systems and browsers (Mac OS10 / Safari to be specific) automatically decompress your these files, so you don't need to worry about it.

How can I tell if I need to decompress my downloaded file?
If, where your browser puts downloaded content, you have a folder starting with "Multiflyer" then your computer decompressed the file and you need not worry any further about it.

If you do NOT have a folder with "Multiflyer" in the file name, and instead you have a file starting with "mflyer", that is the "zipped" file and you need to decompress it.

How do I decompress or "unzip" my downloaded file?
Double click the file. If a decompression application opens up (Winzip on a PC, Zipit on a Mac) then you simply click the "Extract" button and choose where you want your software saved. Once the files are extracted, close the decompression application and go enjoy your new software.

NOTE ABOUT FILES STARTING WITH "." : Some PCs may show files with periods at the beginning of their names (like ".DS_Store"). You don't need them so don't bother extracting them. It won't hurt anything if you do, but they create extra, unecessary folders and don't impact the software.)

I don't have the software to open the zipped file. You can download the software from the links below. In each case, the software can be used for free as shareware.

- For PCs: Winzip
- For Macs: Zipit



5: Play

Everything you can download from this site can be viewed in your browser (ie: Internet Explorer, FireFox). To open anything, simply doubleclick it's "Launch" file and it should automatically open up in your browser. (Note: the board game has no launch file, there's only one file, double click it to open it.)

If it does not, right click on the file (ctrl+click on a Mac) and select "Open With" and use the drop menu to select your browser. Alternatively, you drag any of the files to the icon of your browser (if it's visible on the desktop) or in an open browser window.

NOTE ABOUT FILES STARTING WITH "." : Some PCs may show files in the same folder as your downloaded software with periods at the beginning of their names (like ".DS_Store"). You don't need them, so just delete them. They won't hurt anything, but they are competely not necessary for the software.
