Client Pathing

No no no. Not mad at -me-, just mad in general. Which generally gets pawned off on who ever is nearby. Not a big deal, use to it after the 3 years gaming with him. Usually heads off, does something else, comes back in 15 chipper as ever.

Windows cannot find 'javaw'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

Error message. When he removes 'javaw' at the end to where it ends in bin, run.bat will appear briefly and then disappears. The game doesn't appear afterward.

Likely because it can't run the program because you haven't pointed it to Java if you just finish at \bin.Also, are you sure its Javaw and not just java?

I use this for gilbertus and it works fine as rain:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java" -Djava.library.path="C:\Users\Blxz\Desktop\H&H\32bit" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar haven.jar moltke.seatribe.se

Notice that I am running java and H&H 32 bit even though its on a 64 bit system. Still works, the 'bitage' only needs to correspond to the program H&H and the java. If you try putting the above (changed to match your file paths of course) into your run.bat file it should work. if it doesn't try downloading the gilbertus client and try with that. If its still not working then you either fucked up somewhere or your computer hates you...possibly both.

Tell him to use search on his computer for javaw.exe (hotkey for windows search is WindowsKey+F). If the search can't find it, then tell him to search for java.exe instead.

Correct the run.bat to reflect the location he found for his java/w executable. Also, update the run.bat to point to the directory he put the client in. Below is an example where the user could not find javaw:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java" -Djava.library.path="C:\Users\Jackwolf\Desktop\H&H\32bit" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar haven.jar moltke.seatribe.se

Javaw is the same thing as java, except it runs without a window.

[Jackwolf]

He already knows his is Javaw, and has directed his pathing to the the folder where the client is located.

If he's not at work right now I'll see if he'll post the exacts of what is in his run.bat , If he is I'll be able to post them some time late tonight.

[Jackwolf]

Code: Select all

start javaw -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar haven.jar moltke.seatribe.se -r ./res

[Jackwolf]

Bump. The above is what his client says before editing it in any fashion.

Mine says the same thing and works, his doesn't.

[Phades]

Try this:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar haven.jar moltke.seatribe.se -r ./res

[Jackwolf]

Alright, so now there's no error.

But now the run.bat will appear and disappear shortly after. This happens for my own game as well, but the game comes up shortly. For him it does not.

Re-download the updated full version from http://odditown.taggedup.com

keep a copy of your new run.bat, you'll need to replace it.

I have a feeling you have a bad download. If it still does the same thing afterwards, then I'll tell you what to do.
