This document assumes that you have read the Flashpoint Curation Tutorial first. If you haven’t, go read that and then come back here. This guide will be talking specifically about curating Squeak content.
Curating
Once you've found a game to curate, make sure you have the Squeak support pack installed (Click Open Flashpoint Manager at the bottom left corner of Flashpoint's Home menu and, under Add/Remove Components, make sure Squeak is selected under Support Packs.
The application path for Squeak curations should be set to FPNavigator (FPSoftware\fpnavigator-portable\FPNavigator.exe). After testing to make sure that your Squeak curation fully works, fill in all of the other metadata like the Curation Format page says. Once your curation is finished, export it and submit it to FPFSS. Note: For further curating info, see the site-specific information below.
Site-specific Guides
Etoys Illinois
Etoysillinois.org hosts a large fraction of all known Squeak games. Currently, it's not known how to make these games run in Flashpoint. This guide will be updated once a way to curate these games is found.
Squeakland
Squeakland.org hosted a large fraction of all known Squeak games. For these curations, you can easily find the curation’s release date and developer by viewing its project page on Squeakland. These Squeak curations need the file “www.squeakland.org/launcher/index.html” to load the .pr file that Squeak games use (you can just put the URL to the file that includes “www.squeakland.org/launcher/” in cURLsDownloader). For example: www.squeakland.org/launcher/?[URL of Squeak file] minus the brackets.
A Squeakland curation template can be downloaded here. (In Flashpoint, go to the Curate tab and click Load Archive and select this file to open it. Be sure to click Regenerate UUID afterwards, with the curation selected.)
A scrape of Squeakland can be found here.
