I wasn't even aware of fuhquake until this post, and it's made my gaming life at work much easier. (No more having to find a windows PC to play after work.) I ran into the same problem that you did and did some research. It seems that the installer only accepts JVM's versions 1.4 and lower. I am running a 1.5 JVM which is causing it to not work. I just downloaded the 1.4 JRE and installed it in a temp directory and pointed the installer to it with the -is:javahome option, and now it's working fine. If you still haven't managed to get it working I'd suggest you give it a shot. Now I just need to see if after it's done installing it'll actually work. :) p.s. Sorry for the CC but as the original post was from 8 days ago I just wanted to make sure that you got the response. -- Alex Malinovich Golden Technologies, Inc.
