.swf

An .swf ("Shockwave Flash" or "Small Web Format") file 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, no penguins appear, because it is just a local .swf file. Club Penguin is made with Adobe Flash. All penguins in .swf's are dark black because it is the default color. It is a storage link for item, music, and more ID's.

SWF Name
Every room on Club Penguin has a swf name, which normally is slightly different from the room name. The swf name is the file name of the room, as well as the reference code for that room in Club Penguin ' s files.

History

 * When Club Penguin started, the only .swf files were the rooms, the loader and the shell.
 * After the Portuguese, French, Spanish and German servers came out, the .swf files were localized.

Trivia

 * Until the release of the Stone Hammer Pin, when a pin was hidden, it was added to its room SWF file.
 * According to Rsnail, the Club Penguin Team keeps a copy of every SWF file ever published and gets archived. Nothing gets deleted.
 * Although most SWFs are dark black, Stamp Book SWFs are always white.
