Re: Drizzle31 and Java 8

That is where I got Drizzle from. Just to be certain I used your links for Drizzle and Java and opened with "Java(TM) Platform SE binary", which is what I was using when I reported the results in my last post. I still get the same message when trying to load Drizzle.

Re: Drizzle31 and Java 8

I sure did, When I click on the Drizzle JAR file Windows7 asks what program I want to open Drizzle with. Some place I read that I need to use Java6.

I tried right clicking on the Drizzle file and using the "change" function under Drizzle Properties. That at least got Java to attempt opening the JAR ...

However, I can't seem to get Drizzle to start. Windows keeps coming up with a window asking what program do I want to use to open the Drizzle ...

Re: Can't get tPots to start

You are correct in assuming that I am trying to install TOC-TPots.

1. I installed a copy of URUCC in the Documents folder as suggested in The Open Cave/tPots/How to play tab

2. I downloaded the TOC-tPotS patch, "tocpatch.v3.zip" and ran it in the above folder.

3. I created a desktop shortcut

Re: Can't get tPots to start

Not sure how this got under the TOC section of the forum, but I'm sure I was in the tPots section when I submitted it.

Re: Update Failed

OK, problem solved. I downloaded TOC and installed without first loading "URU Complete Chronicles". Some where in the original download I saw a note that said it didn't matter because TOC Installer would load the files and that it would just take longer. Apparently that is no longer true.
