Title: A little help with the online installer
Post by: Helbindi on October 13, 2007, 09:25:34 am

Hey guys - OS X user here. I can't seem to get the installer to work on my macintosh. After selecting a path for the files the .jar program takes me to a blank java window and a grayed out "Next Button." It also creates "Installer" and "Temp" folders in the directory I chose but stops there. I am using the latest version of Java available from apple's website. Please help me if you know what my problem might be.

I have this problem also, whether running the EXE or JAR versions of the installer (Vista 32 bit, JRE 1.6.0)

Stops at this and never gets any further.

Hope I'm not doing anything stupid...

You  might need to wait a bit before closing.

Thanks for the welcome.

I left it on all night. I also attempted it with my windows machine and had no success. It looks like the files hosted might be down.

Fixed.

P.S. Soulstorm, if you read this, fix your text file. I had to take the osx launcher out because of it.
