WorldsPlayer help

Post by DemonLordx64 »

I'm not sure if this is the right category, but there was only 2, so I chose this one.
I installed WorldsPlayer at http://www.worlds.com and the install won't work. It makes 2 files appear on my screen, a .Ink file and a file with no .filename, just a Wine icon and the game's name. Neither are openable, no matter what I do.
I've been trying to play this for quite some time, please help!

According to http://www.worlds.com/support.html, the game requires Java 6. You would have to install the 32 bit Windows version of Java in Wine, which is likely to be a problem, as downloads for Java 6 are no longer publicly available from Oracle and the game will not work with Java 7 (I tried).
