Problem

[Devekta]

For some reason i can't play poxnora on steam? Im a really old player and i play poxnora from the website without any problems, but it seems that i can't play poxnora on steam because everytime i try to launch the game, it always shows poxnora but nothing ever happens...
Does anyone know a fix to this?

You can try re-opening the app by right clicking (run as administrator) there does seem to be an issue at the moment, which the devs are trying to fix.

That has worked for some people though. Are you able to play via www.poxnora.com?

"i play poxnora from the website without any problems"

Yes, and just tried right now and still works fine, but on steam it doesn't :S

Did you try reloading it by right clicking run as administrator?

That's just pointless when the problem is based on the steam launcher and not the oficial website.

[MentalMoles]

It worked for some, right clicking the steam app and run as administrator

You mean run steam as administrator or run the game as administrator?

[MentalMoles]

The game app, it should create a shortcut to open the steam version when you install it right?

If not go to Start > Programes > Steam > PoxNora (right click run as admin)

If that does not work for you please go to www.poxnora.com and create a support ticket, They are currently investigating the issues and need to ask you some questions to find the cause

I already did the first thing and the second.
The first one you can't actually run it as admin, there's no option for that.
The second one i tried and opened poxnora without steam and tried to login and showed me a global error.

ok, Sounds like you're going to need to create a support ticket on the poxnora.com website. they will sort it out soon enough.

First off, ♛LordP€dr☺Dark♛ I am sorry you are having a problem.

What moles was correctly suggesting was try running steam as an administrator. For anyone just searching the web i'm going to write out some steps more fully here.

1. Fully close steam
2. Right click on steam, and you should see the option to "Run As Administrator"
3. Launch steam as normal
4. Find Pox Nora in your game list and double click it.

Apparently its possible to install steam under permissions that does not give the JVM (java virtual machine pox runs on) full access to the temp directory! If this fixes the issue for you, then know we are looking to a nicer, more long term fix.

If this does not get you rolling please post again and we can try and solve this problem!

Great work Gedden, i'll make sure to let more people know exactly what to do if they have the same issue.

I would like to thank you for trying to be an active dev and try to fix our problems with the game.
Although, the problem still persists and its seems that it didn't fix my issue, im still suck at Poxnora and doesn't go further than that.

[Devekta]

I would like for the devs to fix this problem if possible, given that im still unable to play poxnora from steam.

[Sablestar]

I think a bunch of us are in this boat, with expectations of being able to play games on Steam that we download on Steam.

uninstall the original client then try the steam app
