Title: Can't Open JAR File to run the game
Post by: AtariPC on November 06, 2011, 19:01
I'm playing the game just fine on one PC, but on another I get an error that I can't open a JAR file when i click on the exe after unzipping it. I run IExplorer on windows 7. Wierd that one pc has no issue but on the other, i can't open a JAR file. I know JAR files are Java ARchive files... any ideas?

I haven't seen that problem before. Can you copy the error message and show us what it is? I suggest you try to run the mule.exe in compatibility mode for 32-bit software. Also install the game in some other location than "C:\Program Files".

Well, supposedly you shouldn't need to do this, but for kicks just go out to www.java.com and download java.
