Unusual problem trying to put Xmage on a computer
by Evdog99 » 05 Oct 2015, 00:46
Recently I attempted to put Xmage on a friends computer as he is essentially computer illiterate, I went to the site and clicked the download link and got the java thing, clicked it and...literally nothing happened, he has the most recent java and everything but nothing happened when I click the icon, a black cmd window pops up for like a half second but then nothing at all after that, I am thoroughly confused and was hoping you fine people could assist me in this most unusual issue
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

Assuming you're familiar with how to use CMD, run this command in the directory where the launcher is:
- Code: Select all
java -jar XMageLauncher-0.3.4.jar

I have the same problem and followed the mentioned advice but running "java -jar XMageLauncher-0.3.4.jar" in the launcher's directory just says it is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batchfile. If I just run "XMageLauncher-0.3.4.jar" it says:could not find or load main class C:\...etc. I must add that I know next to nothing about computers.

Before opening the CMD, right-click it, choose "Run as Administrator," and then CD to the folder and try the command again, see if that works.Batil wrote:
