There's an app out there that can play .swf files without a browser, and it isn't Gnash. It's simply called SWF Loader, and it has very decent compatibility with a bunch of Flash games, even more recent ones. Maybe it has potential for implementing TASing tools? Link to the program: http://rcpsoft.net/swfloader.html I actually contacted the creator of the loader by asking if he could make it open-source, but unfortunately, he lost the source code some time ago, which is a bit of a shame. Even then, I thanked him and then asked him how did he managed to make the program, he replied with:
We are talking about a project of 2011, but if I remember correctly is based on DLL in folder.
I don't know what this means, but it's cool nonetheless!

There is an .swf to .exe converter. And some Flash games really work with Hourglass. I didn't follow that thread, so wait for a detailed answer about that! I hope someone will expand what I mean.
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

Well, this is a .NET program, and I think it uses a normal Adobe flash player through a COM object.
