===== Download and Launching JXClient on Windows 10 =====

This page is a HOWTO for downloading and launching the [[jxclient|JXClient]] on Windows 10 for use with the Crossfire.

An installer including the required JRE is available from [[https://crossfire.weeger.org]], updated daily.

 
An occasional bug with this client is that the screen may load completely black, a current work around is to create a shortcut to jxclient.jar and add the following to the "target:"
  "C:\**Change to where Crossfire Is Located**\jxclient new.jar" --no-full-screen

  * The latest stable binary (.jar) and snapshot release mirror list is [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/crossfire/files/jxclient/|at SourceForge Project Page]].

If you are having trouble running the .Jar, install the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) from the [[https://www.java.com|java website]] .
