I downloaded the Mythruna server for Windows and the server. When I open the server, A box with a lot of notes goes by really fast, too fast for me to read, and nothing happens. When I open the regular Mythruna, the name: Mythruna Role Crafting game pops p quickly and goes away. Help me please! I wanna play Mythruna BADLY!  Cry

If you open a command prompt and type:
java -version

what does it say?

  What do you mean by that...? Do you mean run it? I tried that, and it went by too fast... I'm not sure If i'll ever get this done.

Open up a command prompt window.  It should be big and black with a little blinking cursor.  If you go to your start memory and search for "Command Prompt" then you can find it.  Or I think you can still run cmd.exe from the run menu wherever that is these days.

The once you have that window up... type:
java -version
and press enter.

Output will look something like:


If it complains that Java is not installed then that is the issue.  Mythruna requires Java to run... Java 6 or Java 7.  (version 1.6 or 1.7)

Yep. Found it. I have version 1.7 so I'm not sure whats wrong with it... I have java installed, and have lots of disk/file space.

So, now that you've done that... try changing to the directory where Mythruna is (if you've never used a command line before then I can walk you through it if you tell me what directory you put Mythruna in...)

In the command prompt, in the directory where Mythruna is, you can run:
java -jar Mythruna-20120627.exe

...this may tell us more.

Oh, and while you are poking around, did the game happen to leave an error log in that directory?  If so then you don't need to do the above and can simply post the error log.

No, it didn't leave any error log. So, I can just go back into command prompt and type: java -jar Mythruna-20120627.exe  Right...? I've never used a command line before though.

You need to change to the right directory first.  But I can't walk you through that unless you tell me where you unzipped the mythruna stuff.

I unzipped it all into a new folder, which is in Local Disk (C:). I titled the folder Mythruna. I extracted the files into that folder.

Open the command prompt.

Then:
cd Mythruna

The command prompt should now look like C:\Mythruna>

then type:
java -jar Mythruna-20120627.exe

and tell me what it says.

Also, type:
dir

and paste what that says if you can.

I typed it in the command prompt, and it said: The system cannot find the path specified.

Type "dir" in the same command prompt so that I can see what is in the Mythruna directory and that you are really in the right directory.
