Hey guys!
Seeing as how Google Chrome 45 was just released, which officially disables NPAPI plugins such as shockwave (the plugin currently needed for MyVMK to run), I figured I'd throw up a short little thing for those of you who haven't already migrated in order to play MyVMK.
You have a few options
Option 1, use myVMKPal
Shameless self-promotion is shameless. Nonetheless, myVMKPal is a great way to play MyVMK with ease! It can handle all your accounts, log you in automatically, take screenshots, and then upload those screenshots straight to imgur! And best of all? NPAPI support isn't going anywhere soon, so for those of you looking for an easy way to keep playing without the hassle of using two browsers (if you use something else for MyVMK, and Chrome for everything else), myVMKPal is a great way to go. You can download that from www.myVMKPal.com/download
Option 2, use a different browser
If you don't want to (or can't) use myVMKPal, the next best route is to use a different browser such as Firefox! To my knowledge, Firefox has not yet disabled NPAPI support so for the time being it should work without issue to play MyVMK. Personally, I recommend Firefox as my Chrome alternative but other browser such as Opera, Safari, or Internet Explorer (but why you would use that is anyone's guess) may work. You can download Firefox from www.Ninite.com/firefox or www.Firefox.com
Option 3, downgrade Google Chrome
@savvy.max has an excellent and detailed post on how to keep your Google Chrome downgraded to version 44 so you can continue using Chrome to play MyVMK! You can find that here.
Hope this helps anyone that has either run into the issue, or is about to when their Chrome install updates.
See ya, Kolya Venturi
