what .zip?

I just double-click on the .jar file and it all happens auto-magically

(.jar file is in my main minecraft folder, not sure if that makes any difference though)

Hmm. Minecraft.jar wants to open with WinZip :( I'll keep fiddling.

A jar is a (java) executable, but it is also a archive container. Sounds like your file associationsbarebfucked.

Renamed it to minecraftlauncher.jar from minecraftlauncher.jar.zip and it loads, but still won't let me on the server.

I can't get back on now either

I have been using http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/minecraft.net to check if the minecraft authentication server is online too

I can see a map now.


Or at least the small portion of it which spinning plates is viewing, I guess.

If only I could zoom in more.. this is almost like online stalking. :D

Probably because you downloaded it with IE, and IE is shit and likes to fuck with things like that.

WHY ARE YOU USING SHITTY IE!?!?! :@

There's still plenty of life in it! The game hasn't even finished development yet - so even if everyone here did get bored tomorrow (not going to happen), you'd have a spurt of Teh people playing it at least for a while when it is actually fully released.

Get it! Get it! Get it! :@

It just died.

I fell to my death digging out the pool and when I respawned I was floating in space for a while with no terrain at all, then it booted me out and I can't reconnect now :(

Yay!

But it looks like some of the map data has corrupted, we now have huge bits of terrain in the middle of the pool that weren't there an hour ago.

Oh well, time to get the TNT out again.

They don't. A jar is a zip archive.

It's an executable zip file.

A browser's default behaviour should be treating it as an executable, because people that know/care they are zip files (the minority) will know how to override that behaviour, whilst people that don't will get all confused.
