(Solved) How do I run HnH

[Plumm1034]

I know I probably sound insanely stupid right now, But I can't find it anywhere and I can't figure out how, I've been trying to launch it for about a hour now. Whenever I do launch it, a cmd box shows up for literally a split second and nothing happens. And before u crucify me saying "DOWNLOAD JAVA U FOKING IDIOT" I have the latest java. So can anyone help?

Java should have created a bug report somewhere near your hafen file. Try to find that.

Well, the first step in troubleshooting is to make sure the computer is plugged in and is getting power.

The basics: is Java working? Haven uses Java Web Start, so make sure "Java in browser" is enabled. Make sure that the cache for Java is turned on. (All of these produce very specific errors, though, so I doubt any of these are the issue.)

If an error is generated without being displayed, there should be something like "hs_err_pid.log" somewhere on your computer, likely in the Java folders if I recall right (default location for these files is the Java working directory, but can be manually set by a developer). A search will find it.

It's hard to say what the problem is without that log, so if you could post it, it'll help troubleshoot.

Step by step!



Click the play button




Select "Open with" and ensure it's using "Java(TM) Web Start Launcher" before clicking OK




This splash screen will popup while it loads




Click Run




You should now be in game!


If your experience deviated from this at any point;

Then everything is broken, oh fuck
Try making a thread in the bug forum I guess

Thanks for the step-by-step guide, Scoodles, but unfortunately, I don't think it's helpful to the current situation. After all, Plumm clearly says it starts but immediately crashes. This indicates an issue with something on the computer that is causing Java to crash.

If necessary, a moderator can move this thread to Bugs if necessary.

Press ctrl + r enough times until you're at run ning speed.

@Scoodles, Web Launcher didn't show up in my list of apps to launch it with so I went to go find it and after I did, it started working Thanks lol
