How do you run this? It keeps saying "main file can't be found".

Were you trying to run the exe version or the jar version?

[majikero]

Tried both and it keeps getting some error about not finding something.

[Buzzyboy]

That's pretty odd. I'm not really too sure. Add me on msn and I could probably help you further via teamviewer or something?

Here's the error I got:



First one is from the .exe and the second is the jar file.

I'm afraid that's just not enough information for me to go off of. I have to actually run it in a debug mode to see what's wrong.

Let's try this. Open up the jar file with winrar or something, and go into the folder META-INF and edit the Manifest.MF file.

Make sure it says this:

Code: [Select]

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: 1.7.0_04 (Oracle Corporation)
Main-Class: client.AnimalForest



Note: Those blank lines are required.

It does say that. Can anyone else run this?

Perhaps it could be your java version?

If you're not at 1.7 java, try updating?

Running the EXE I get a "The main startup class could not be found."

If someone who's having these errors wouldn't mind me seeing what's wrong in TeamViewer, I could fix this for everyone.

Holy shit on a stick, this still exists.

[Buzzyboy]

Hehe. Yes it does. And I figured out the issue with you guys running it. Luck-fully my brother ran into the same problem running it. He was running java version 1.6, where as the game is compiled in version 1.7. Updating your java *should* fix it. But for future versions, I'm going to compile it in probably 1.4 to avoid these kinds of issues.

When I saw the title I thought of Animal Crossing since it was called Animal Forest or Dōbutsu no Mori in Japan but I'll try this after I move.

[Buzzyboy]

Just updated the client.zip file. It's not just a jnlp (which should link you to the correct java version if you don't have it.)

This also means the client will automatically update.

Whoa! If I recall correctly the site was dead for a while, and I missed it a little bit. Will try to get back on soon.

I made a fox for its high crafting base. Not sure if I'll be needing a hammer to forge other metals. Anyways, skill point are used to level skills which is gained by being online. According to Buzzy, after 6 hours of play, you can make a burrow. I think its a player house of some sort. I'll try combat later or tomorrow if someone is on.
