    I want to start off by saying that I don't know anything about dos or any of the stuff that spams my screen. I only know enough to usually get programs running, and I know how to play Magic.

    Having said that, I have downloaded the java that was suggested, I have dowloaded the newest and one older versions of the program, and it does not work for me!

    I am running windows xp. The computer is more than fast enought to run Autocad 2007 so I am sure it has enough balls for this program.

    I have read all the tutorials provided on the web site, and the walk throughs here in the forum and am so damn frustrated with the program.

    Here is the error I get:

    I get this when I double click magic.bat. When I try magic-project.exe I just get a purple card (the opening image I am guessing) then it sits and does nothing. If I click, it goes away.

    Please help me with the program.

    Thanks alot in advance.

      Hi,
      do you have this file : "C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Common\magic-project-0.92.45.0-bin\dtds\log4j.dtd" ?
      MP did not find it, and yet, is in the released ZIP/TAR.GZ files.

      I don't see that directory on my computer.

      C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Common\magic-project-0.92.45.0-bin leads to seeing only the directories..

      Images
      lib
      tbs

      I don't see a dtds. However, I do have log4j.dtd in the directory I pasted above. Do I need to create that directory? I didn't alter anything, and this is simply how it unpacked upon unzipping.

      Thank you for your help.

        You have to keep all directories and structure of zip file.
        Unzip the zip into a c:/magic-project directory without usin drag&drop of winzip...
        A dtd directory is present in the zip file, so it must exist in the uncompressed directory.

      Just to let you know, I uninstalled and reinstalled it under just program files/magic project, and it worked. As long as I had it in any directory other than program files/magic project, it would not work. Funny.

      Please someone tell me how to install to make it work

      just download the 0.95.52-bin.zip and unzip it to your computer. run firemox.exe and you're done. remember you need Java installed (preferably 1.6).
