in simple words (better read romovs howto!)

Working on learning to code. Is it frowned upon or taboo to use people works like this and just add shit through google and monkey brain?

Hey guys, I know that this is probably fixed somewhere in this thread but to dig through ~500 pages is not fun at all.

My Amber client crashes without any trace, it opens a cmd window for a second, then something like small game window appears and that's it. Can I ask you guys for help :(

It's a few pages back. See this post http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/vie ... 70#p844950 and let us know what gets posted in the command window.

Adding "pause" at the end did not stop the windows form disappearing but I did menaged to workaround it(?) by running hafen.jar and I got this error message when I tried to login into my account:

start javaw -Xss1024k -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -jar hafen.jar -U https://game.havenandhearth.com/hres/ game.havenandhearth.com
pause

Pause
this is my run.bat which works and leaves the cmd window open - while i have the environment variables set (sadly you'll have to edit it with every Java update)

https://javatutorial.net/set-java-home-windows-10

alternativly you may edit a second bat file with notepad i.e. pathrun.bat for a test

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_241\bin\javaw.exe" -Xss1024k -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -jar hafen.jar -U https://game.havenandhearth.com/hres/ game.havenandhearth.com
Pause
