ED: so i have hero designer v2 on my PC.  it is all in one folder.  i copied the folder to my mac and try to launch the .jar file, but it gives me an error message.  any ideas?  i also still have hero designer v1 which will launch, but doesn't work correctly, i can't see any tabs on the character (like the characteristics, powers, skills, etc...).  mac comes preinstalled with java, and various java things on the web work for me, so i think my java is ok.
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 12:38, 22 January 2013 (MST)Ladies and gentledudes, I have received an email from Ed and he is officially populating the earth with Edlings. He now has two kids, a boy (Theo) and a girl (Ella). He seems to be doing well, and I continue to be jealous of him. Reckanize.
 
+
JASON: Make sure you have the correct version of java.  What is the error message?
+
 
+
ED: according to my mac update program, java is up to date.  the error is "The Java JAR file "Hero Designer.jar" could not be launched.  Check the console for possible error messages"  This happens when i try to run the .jar file.  is that the correct one to launch?  I also have a .exe file, but when i launch this, it opens as a text file with mumbo jumbo.  i presume this is a mac vs pc thing and that in the pc, the .exe is the correct file to run.  maybe the pc version does not run on a mac?  thought maybe java was java on a pc or a mac.  I also have a .lax file that does not know which program to open with.
+
 
+
JASON:  Java is platform independent, and plenty of people use Hero Designer on the mac, so it should work.  Open your xterm and type Java -version then hit enter.  If it says something other than 1.5 you need a new version of java.  Once we are sure that is up to date we can move on to other possible issues.
+
 
+
'''Gabe:'''  You are all dumb.  Clearly his Mac was born in sin, just like the rest of humanity.  We need to get the demons outta your Mac.  After that I recommand you baptize it.
+
 
+
JASON: I have this John the Baptist dish towel, guaranteed to get the demons off your dishes.
+
 
+
'''Gabe:''' Now I must know, do you actually have that?
+
 
+
ED - "Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_16-b06-284)"  This is not a herodesigner specific problem.  i cannot run another .jar java program which runs fine on my older pc.  I tried dunking my mac in water, and this did not seem to solve the problem.  but it did stop other things from working, like the screen and all the lights.  what?
+
 
+
'''Gabe:'''  Helloooo?  It can't be just any water, you have to say the correct prayer and collect the 10 Holy Stones of Aldnana.  After that you can try again but this time use a cow's blood instead of water.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 14:25, 24 May 2009 (MST) So, I have a Yahoo mail account which is implementing new "security" procedures, which includes giving them an alternative email address to send warnings to, along with a cell phone number to send texts to. There's no way in hell they're getting my phone number. But until I cave in, I'm locked out of my Yahoo account. Does anyone know of any kind of free phone numbers for text messages or something, like VOIP or Net phones that I could BS the registration with? I'm going to have to set up a new email address, but I need to get all my old emails off first.
+
 
+
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] this is interesting, i had two .jar applications that were not running, one was hero designer, the other was something else.  after some web searching, for "java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file" I found a site that suggested that i go to Java Preferences and change the order of the Java applicaiton versions.  I have these four: J2SE 5.0 32bit, Java SE 6 64 bit, J2SE 5.0 64 bit, and J2SE 1.4.2 32 bit.  in that order.  changing Java SE 6 64 bit to first fixed my other application, but not hero designer.  switching any others to first also did not fix herodesigner.  i feel like i'm on the right track but not sure what to try next.... any ideas?
+
 
+
JASON: Can you verify that your Java is Sun?  Try unloading what you have and loading a current java version directly from Sun.

[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] anyone interested in doing anything next weekend?  I have single man syndrome.  could do board games + bbq at my place or a one shot.
+
 
+
'''Gabe''' Sure.  Board games, ccgs, whatever.
+

--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 16:23, 24 May 2009 (MST) My wife is also out of town next weekend, so I'm likely in for some of this action.
+
 
+
JASON: I would love to come to this, but at this time I think we are 50-50 at best.  How late will you be going?
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 15:28, 25 May 2009 (MST) Are you guys at all interested in maybe playing [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomacy_(game) Diplomacy] this weekend?  I've got a (homemade) set, and it's WAY less complicated than Twilight Imperium (which was totally fun, btw), so we can get down to business really quickly even for those who don't know the rules.  I also intend to institute an easier win condition, so that the game takes less time (aiming for 2.5-3ish hours of gameplay, maybe 3.5-4 hours total experience time with Rules learning, set-up, and bullshitting added in).  If you're interested let me know, and I'll campaign around to get players (the game is best with seven).
+
 
+
JASON: I have a copy of Diplomacy, though I am willing to play a home made version as well.  We have something during the day Saturday, but could be able to show up around 8 or so.  Will you guys still be going that late?
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 10:19, 26 May 2009 (MST) Can't make it either day. 4 movies on Saturday and I work Sunday with one movie afterward. Have fun, though.
+
 
+
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] trying to figure out which day will be best for me.  never tried diplomacy, but have heard a lot about it and it sounds fun.
+
 
+
'''GABE:'''  People who pick movies over games suck.  Also sorry about not making that movie on Saturday Dieter, turned out I had no clean clothes.  I will not play diplomacy, I am not a fan of the game.  That shouldn't really be a surprise eh?  Sorry if it sounds blunt but can't think of any other way to say it.  So what are we doing this Saturday?  I got some new CCGs I can bring as well.
+
 
+
[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] How about sunday?  turns out i have saturday plans.  I can host sunday if folks are interested, whichever board games, magic, whatever.  i think we can find some games that everyone like to, or can tolerate, playing.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 20:55, 26 May 2009 (MST) Sunday sounds great.  Now I know that Gabe is a douchebag for a whole host of reasons AND because he doesn't like Diplomacy, but I'm down to play whatever.  Magic and boardgames and whatever at Ed's sounds fun.  During the day/afternoon would work best for me, 'cause I'll be at Capoeira from 6-8:30, but I'd be down for coming over after as well if that's the time people will be hanging out.
+
 
+
[[User:97.113.58.26|97.113.58.26]] anytime is fine by me.  who's in?  what times preferred?
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' One more thing is I have no transportation that day.  And taking the bus on Sunday is a biznatch.  My place is open but then I realize that means you all would have to come over here...  Just trying to keep up my douchebagness.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 12:50, 27 May 2009 (MST) Gabe, I can probably pick you up in exchange for some small but substantial favor (can you say "Oona's Blackguard"?).  Getting you back home would depend on the time (see my post above about my Sunday availability).  To be clear, I'd prefer starting in the early afternoon (lunchtime-ish), so that I could get my game playing fix before having to be at Capoeira by six.
+
 
+
JASON: Rumi works at 4, so if I come it might be later in the day.  I may see if she can come for a while, drop me off, and pick me up when she is off.  That would be at 10PM.  Would that be too late?

BEN: I'm sorry: I wasn't clear about this.  I charged each character 1 XP so that the baby is essentially out of the picture for the time being.  THat 1 xp was the "bonus" for this session, so everybody gets 15 XP and has NO new disadvantages.  Sorry about this lack of clarity.

Latest revision as of 17:20, 15 January 2017

This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.
