Post by Storytellermerc »

i tried searching the forumns and google. i cannot find anywhere on how to actually play this game. i hit play and it downloaded a file so i assumed it downloaded wrong and had it change to zip file to open and still cant do anything. i reinstalled java from a google search i found and still didnt fix it. can anyone help me because i would like to try this game out and play but i mean theirs legit nothing on how to fix any issues from the developers which i feel they should have.

Make sure you have winrar or any zip reader downloaded, then make a new text document and put this in start javaw -jar ./autohaven.jar and hit save.
Change the text document to a bat file by right clicking the file and hitting the properties option. At the text at the top where you can type change .txt to .bat and windows will prompt you that the file may become unreadable if changed, and click okay. Lastly change the name of the Haven zip file so its named just autohaven.jar
If your text document has changed to a bat file just left click it and it should start up.

Other issues I have come across is that if you use firefox it looks like you downloaded java but it doesn't. Hope it helps and you have luck in the hearthlands.
