Can’t launch AstraX?
Like minecraft, this game is based on java technology. That means you need the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to play it. This also means the steps necessary to make minecraft and AstraX run are the same.
First, ensure you have JRE installed on your computer. As of AstraX 0.5, JRE 8 is required. You can get it at:
It is sufficient to run the JRE installer and play. If you are still encountering problems, you can try add %JAVA_HOME% to your system’s PATH variable as described in this useful guide on java.com.
