Errors in Vyond's animation creator
Describe the bug
after a certain date in may-june (i don't know specifically) the vyond animation creator (or full videomaker, called that by vyond themselves) made it to the loading screen, however, 2 errors (one is related to xml, the other seems to be of a "prototype" thing?) keep it from getting past it. the creator is HEAVILY based upon xml strings (the swf being based around adobe flash builder flex stuff) (the theme list, files to list the themes, ALL of these things, except for, of course, the theme's actual .swf assets are based on xml), so it would make sense that it's not getting past the loading due to xml issues. due to it's infunctionality with no internet connection or without it's api (launching the swf directly isn't gonna work, even on flash player. it has to be on that specific website), here's an online host of the api, and the creator itself: https://gaw.ncardenascota.repl.co/go_full?tray=custom
and below are the 2 issues:
Expected behavior
the creator will get past these errors, but perhaps encounter new errors, due to the creator being made in adobe flex/flash builder, and xml issues. my objective is to clear out these 2 errors, to progress to new ones, and have them fixed if possible
Affected platform
Browser's extension
Operating system
Windows 11
Browser
Google Chrome 114
Additional information
also known as the goanimate videomaker/animation creator (sorry if stuff in this issue isn't very well detailed, i tried)
The 2nd error should be resolved by #12161.
it was. now while there is still a second error, it's now another "can't set prototype of class to null or undefined"
as of the pull request above those errors are fixed. however, they're these now:
after #12330 the errors seem to be gone, but these pop up now
other than the textblock variable thing, perhaps some of them are due to missing flashvars? (the creator depends on flashvars to determine the location of files it depends on) (adding all of them in the advanced load thing is just overwhelming and i don't like being overwhelmed so i just throw in at least 3 and then start it) [please give me a break that's just the way my brain works] so i'll probably wait until this is merged and the nightly is built so i can test it in the browser (i don't really feel like building web myself)
at the end, i decided to build web myself (i'm very impatient) and the textblock error is the problem now
If you want you can try building that PR with this https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle/pull/12326 to see if you get past that error.

i did, and it's this now

i decided to check out the pull request again, after the thumbs up emoji reaction appeared, and a commit stubbing that variable/function was there. after building web with the commit added into the code, the error is now this
an older version of the creator (dating around 2011/2012) is showing a few signs of life in the latest version of ruffle. yaay!
but of course, as expected, errors.

Where can I test that?

https://goanimate-wrapper-1.3hj.repl.co/html/home.html however, cors prevents it from getting some swz files from adobe's servers and they don't exist on the creator server either, so my solution was to install an extension called requestly and make a rule to redirect multiple requests from the creator server to a self-hosted server but i don't know if i'm allowed to go further in detail so unless i'm told that i am i don't really know how else to put it. sorry
the owner of the instance let me fork it so here's a working one https://goanimate-wrapper-1.ncardenascota.repl.co/go_full
decided to try out the 2012 creator and....
you can now get in, load up the default scene, and insert characters!
you can't change their actions, however. but it's quite the step for it
you can also change the backdrops too, but that's about it. no tts or color changing
the 2010 creator from flashthemes.net also works to a degree, but is HORRIBLY slow
trying to preview your animation in 2012 will give out this error, very expected (sorry for clashing all of these into separate comments it's just something i do)
after logging in, trying to change the tts voice in the tts menu will give out this error.

The link doesn't work at all

i recommend making a flashthemes account and trying it out there
All the links here are broken, they just take me to Replit and not the animation creator

just use flashthemes.net
from what i can tell, the 2010 video maker works somewhat well, however there are noticeable issues with it. anything involving custom characters doesn't seem to work.
