I have forgot on how to get it running on Chrome....

what I did was...click on Monkey folder then click on Bin Folder then
double click on config.winnt.txt then

I type out

'HTML_PLAYER="${TRANSDIR}\mserver_winnt.exe"
HTML_PLAYER="${TRANSDIR}\chrome.exe"

I want run on Chrome instead of crappy internet explore...

It should be something like this:
HTML_PLAYER="C:\Users\<INSERT YOUR USER ACCOUNT NAME HERE>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

Doesn't it just use your default browser? If Chrome is set to default, mserver should use it. That's how mine seems to behave.

Hey Amnesia,

Yeah I did that but this what I got

TRANS monkey compiler V1.16

Semanting...
Translating...
Building...
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

Process Complete

Open chrome

Click options
click the "make google chrome my default browser" button

I have done that no problem but

when I run the sample program in Jungle IDE and it say


TRANS monkey compiler V1.16
Parsing...
Semanting...
Translating...
Building...
ERROR:The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Compilation without errors!

If you want it to run on chrome with no mserver being launched, you should point to chrome.exe wherever it is located (check the shortcut to Chrome on your desktop/taskbar/All Programs or whatever location you happen to have a shortcut to chrome).

Otherwise, let it run on mserver and set chrome as your default browser as raz said. MServer should launch it then.

I have set chrome to default when I went into option. My Chrome is on the taskbar

HTML_PLAYER="HTML_PLAYER="Desktop\taskbar\chrome.exe"

then I run the program and I get this

Building...
The system cannot find the path specified.

he said check the short cut not copy its location. This is what you need to do:
right click on the chrome shortcut
select properties
copy the address in the target

paste it to your configuration file.

Hotshot, this is incorrect:
HTML_PLAYER="HTML_PLAYER="C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

Try this instead:
HTML_PLAYER="C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

anyway, I would advise you to use the mserver and modify the default browser, as the mserver will allow local data storage and some other required things both on Flash and HTML5.

EDIT: Replace USERNAME with your windows real username.

YAY It is working fine now :)

Thanks Ziggy :)
