Thanks for the report.

That bug should be fixed in version 1.19 which will be released next week.

I've tried older versions and they work just fine.

Based on the crash report alone, I can't be sure if this is the same as an earlier bug. When does the program crash? Is it as soon as you start it up or when you start a new duel or ...?

[beholder]

Seems I could be wrong then.
The same crash has been reported 3 times now. It looks like it's 64 bit related or maybe java 7 related.
Remember what madmarcel said about his crashes when running 1.18 on 64 bit java 7? The compiler was complaining about deprecated pieces of Nimbus being used.

I use win 7 64bit at home with the latest java 6. Magarena runs fine. Whenever I tried to use java 7, things went bonkers.

[jmartus]

The program crashes as soon as I go to start a new duel it doesn't allow me to play any games.

[melvin]

Most likely due to Java 7, they moved the Nimbus UI to a different package. I think I've nailed the bug, but needs testing.

jmartus: Can you download http://magarena.googlecode.com/files/Magarena_2825.exe and override your original Magarena.exe and then see if the program works for you?

[jmartus]

Yes the program works for me after i downloaded http://magarena.googlecode.com/files/Magarena_2825.exe and overrode the original Magarena.exe Thank you

[melvin]

Wonderful! Thanks for helping us to resolve the incompatibility with Java 7.
