Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Hi everyone! Rencently i've decided to return playing wurm online but i'm having trouble setting the game to work. The Issue: i've installed the client and it starts, a window pops up loading but then nothing happens, no login window nothing. still the client is working in task manager under processes tab. everytime i click to start to run a new client another process pops up but nothing is happening. having like 5 applications running. i've Tried both installations on windows 7 and Vista, both withjava 8 installed didn´t work on both OS. I´d apreciate a lot some help here. thank you!

Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Two possible issues: 1) Somehow it has a stray " in the pathname: java.nio.file.InvalidPathException: Illegal char <"> at index 0: "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_281\bin"\windows/x86/org/lwjgl/lwjgl.dll I am not actually sure how that would have happened unless maybe you fiddled with the java home path on your computer, or are maybe using a batch file to launch the game. 2) Also that is a path for 32-bit java (x86) which does have issues with Wurm sometimes. Do you have 32 or 64 bit OSs? If you have 64 bit OS, then I suggest you do the following: * Go to Control panel > Programs and uninstall ALL java currently installed. If you have 32+64 versions it tends to use the 32 bit, so get rid of them all to be safe. * Do not reinstall java using your browser which is likely a 32 bit browser. Instead download to your hard drive this 64-bit manual install of Java: https://javadl.oracle.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=244068_89d678f2be164786b292527658ca1605 (you can get the same link by googling "manual install 64 bit java" if you have concerns about the link) I am not sure if that will also fix the complaint about the illegal character in the java path, maybe it will. Otherwise you might need to find where you introduced a typo into the path. If you have only a 32 bit operating system then ignore that, as you cannot use a 64 bit Java then. Maybe someone else will have ideas on how to correct the extra character in the line above. If you are back after a long absence, be sure also to install the NEW launcher at https://www.wurmonline.com/wurm-online-downloads/ Go for the 64 bit executable if you have a 64 bit OS WurmSetup64.exe https://client.wurmonline.com/client/WurmSetup64.exe not the JLNP versions which are sometimes a little funky with the new launcher versions. If you do that maybe uninstall first any old versions of Wurm in hopes of correcting the illegal character in the path. If you want to keep old logs/screesnhots etc, back those up first OR maybe just rename your old wurm folders to WurmBROKEN and then use control panel to uninstall and download and install the new WurmSetup64.exe version.

Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) I´ve downloaded both options to launch the game. one happens just as you described in your option one. Quote 1) Somehow it has a stray " in the pathname: java.nio.file.InvalidPathException: Illegal char <"> at index 0: "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_281\bin"\windows/x86/org/lwjgl/lwjgl.dll I am not actually sure how that would have happened unless maybe you fiddled with the java home path on your computer, or are maybe using a batch file to launch the game. 2) Also that is a path for 32-bit java (x86) which does have issues with Wurm sometimes. I run a 32 bit machine only. also i did a clean and new install, both for wurm and java. with java 8 i done the manually offline install.
