lime test flash opens up unarchiver on mac

[D Man]

Hi guys, newbie here.

I was following the tutorial when I got to "lime test flash". When I tried it, it just opened unarchiver (mac extractor thing) for me without throwing any errors.

However, "lime test neko" works just fine.

Here is my haxelib list

actuate: [1.8.6]
air3: [0.0.1]
box2d: [1.2.3]
flambe: [4.1.0]

Thank you for your help!

* I'm not using a Mac but it sounds like your .swf files are associated with the wrong program. Now, I don't know what's the Mac equivalent of "open with" but that's what you need to do, but most probably you didn't even install the Flash standalone debug player (that's what you want to test your Flash target with) to begin with. So after you would download and install it the issue might be gone by itself.

I figured it out. The default program for .swf files was set to Unarchiver. To fix, go to any .swf file and right click > Get Info > Open with. Then change from Unarchiver to Flash Player. Then click the button below to set this as the default for all .swf files. This fixed it for me.
