Custom client by Latikai, building on Ender's client

[hitori]

if your java version is stopping you from launching the client, you should be getting an actual error report (i.e. a pop-up) - also it should now work with Java 6 again. Not entirely sure what could be causing it otherwise. Have you tried deleting the Salem/bin/ folder and re-launching the client?

dat was first thing that i did

btw
same behavior with Ender's client, and it was working fine yesterday

Well, in that case the problem is at your end (Ender's client was last updated 6 days ago): did you recently install a new version of Java? As you were asking whether Java 6 is still supported, I assume not. I don't really have a clue except for that (and it shouldn't be the issue in the first place). I'd suggest deleting Salem/bin/ again, possibly .salem/cache and/or the config files in Salem/ too - but I think all of those should give you a pop-up with a specific error rather than the client just not starting.

reinstalled java, deleted both .salem and Salem folders
still nothing

ok, ill try with java7 now

UPD: works with Java7
rolled back to 6th - client wont launch again
damn

okay - thanks for letting me know. For what it's worth, Java 7 is not that bad: it's from 8 that oracle decided to clamp down ridiculously on security.

To be honest for me Java is just a massive memory leak waiting to happen. It feels so clunky.. But then I'm not a programmer to really know what I am saying ahah.

I'll not go into the discussion here, but scattered over these forums and HnH's, you 'll find discussions with loftar about the use of Java for the client. Specifically on memory leaks, Java's managed character means that one has to make a real effort to get memory leaks. Apparently I managed, somehow

It's actually not that difficult in java, garbage collector or not, you need to keep an eye on what you generate and when.

weird, Ender's one is launching fine on my Work PC now (also with java 6)
but not yours
