Xmage closes upon opening

I'm on Mac 10.9.3 with the newest version of Java 64.
When I run the client script, the Xmage logo flashes, and instantly disappears. Nothing happens after that. The shell output is this:
- Code: Select all
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: mage/ client/ MageFrame : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0
Thank you!

Error looks like you trying to execute XMage with a java version < 1.7.
So check which JRE is really used.
Try to enter java -version to see which version is used.

Solved:
Changed the client script to a different location of my java file.

Nice, so I guess it runs native on MAC now?

Can you explain how to do that? I'm running into the same problem.

I'm having the same problem on Mac. The xMage splash loading page opens and then the application closes.

You have to download the JDK, or development kit for java 8. Not just java 8. It updates your version to 1.8 if you type java -version into terminal.
Something about JRE, or runtime environment being different from just java you download normally.
