Installing Problems

[Ziminar]

Hey guys!

Im sorry I have to write this but I have been trying to install Xmage on my new computer and I just cant.
I have followed all the steps in the guide and updated (like 20 times) java and other drivers. However I cant get it to work.

The problem is that when I dowload the folder and open it with rar this is what I get:

And I just dont really understand how i should proceed from there. I believe I am good with computers, just not a programer but this is killing me hehe. Hope you can help me. Thanks a lot!

No needs to open that jar-file. You must execute it by java. Normally you can execute it by double click on it, but sometime system open it as archive (your case). That's why you can do:

• create game's folder like D:\games\xmage\ and move downloaded launcher file to it (XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar);
• create run.cmd in that folder and start edit it with text editor;
• enter that command and save: java -jar XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar;
• execute that run.cmd to run launcher.

P.S. If you got connection error after that (can't update, can't run client) then enable ipv4 by adding command -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true (use that for run.cmd file: java -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -jar XMageLauncher-0.3.8.jar and for client settings in launcher).

Forget about it I'm silly! I think I've got it now. Give me a sec.

You are connecting to localhost -- it's your own local server address (you can play with bots on it). You need to run server from launcher and connect to localhost.

If you want play on official server then press X button to select official german server or W button to play on usa server (and don't forget to register on it before connect).
