| − | == What you'll see when JWildFire starts ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The first thing you'll notice when you start JWildFire is an initial Welcome startup splash
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Window opening up...
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This is the Java Environment startup options, with a couple of optional settings..
| |
| − | JWildfire is just as happy working in 32bit mode as 64bit (optimal if your OS support it).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | When you are happy with your settings click on "Start"!
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Shortly after this window disappears, you'll see the main "Welcome to JWildfire"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | window open with the main JWildFire interface behind it...

| |
| − | == Meet JWildFire! ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Thanks for your patience... I know it may have seemed like a lot of steps to get here but you
| |
| − |
| |
| − | shouldn't have spent more than 5 minutes or so.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Now it's time to show you why it was worth it!

| |
| − | == Alternative Ways of Starting JWildFire... ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In the unlikely event that using the "'''JWildfire.exe'''" file isn't starting up the
| |
| − |
| |
| − | software properly, there are alternatives...
| |
| − |
| |
| − | These alternatives are found in your JWildfire installation folder. The first option is to use
| |
| − |
| |
| − | the "'''j-wildfire-launcher.jar'''" file.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You can also use one of the supplied start-scripts available in your installation folder:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "'''start_windows.bat'''", "'''start_mac.command'''" or
| |
| − |
| |
| − | "'''start_linux.sh'''"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | If you use any of these alternative startup methods you could just create the shortcut, as
| |
| − |
| |
| − | described above, for the alternative file instead of the "'''JWildfire.exe'''"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | file...
