The game doesn't open

[Łukasz Jakowski Games]

The game can now only be run as a aoh3.jar - Java file.

Use first option to run the game without the need to install Java when launching the game via Steam

Or:
In the game files:
Right-click on aoh3.jar -> Open with -> Java

You can use java from game files:
jre\bin\java.exe

Or if you don’t have Java installed, you can download it here:
https://www.java.com/en/download/
or:
https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

If doesn't help:
Uninstall Java with the Java Uninstall Tool and make sure all old versions are uninstalled. Reinstall latest version of Java. Game should run fine after that.

I'll do my best to make running the game simpler, but it might take some time.

Could you make a choice to run the exe file for people that are willing to whitelist the file on their Antivirus

this. the .jar wont run for me

[julianzacharias]

Why won't it let me play. I played earlier and now it defaults to JAR files or something cos it is in my files and not letting me play normally like other games and how it used to be when this game came out

[Upside]

Installed Java, reinstalled the game, clicked Play and it successfully opened. I don't like that I had to download third party applications in order to make a game available on steam run, but it is better than seeing my antivirus ding every time I attempt to play. Probably going to have to keep working on this but for now it appears to be a practical temporary fix.

[Raspyron]

Doesn't work for me.
I tried both to reinstall the game and update java but still it's not working

[RayWilliamJohnsonGamer]

NOO NO ♥♥♥♥ FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

What worked for me was to run it via the command line, so after installing java (an in my case joined the Beta) did the following:

1) Windows Key + CMD to start a command prompt
2) cd 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\'
3) cd 'Age of History 3'
4) java -jar aoh3.jar

It doesn`t work, i can`t play. Just return the exe file
