Also yes, I did download JDK 16

Also seeing this. I'm using the Amazon Corretto distribution of the JDK, specifically jdk16.0.1_9. I can also confirm that my PATH environment variable is correctly set with the jdk16.0.1_9/bin directory listed before any other Java installations.

Further, this seems to affect the .exe distribution of AMIDST specifically. The .jar version works fine.

i also grabbed the windows installer from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk16-downloads.html and added C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-16.0.1\bin to my paths before any other java and i still get

Exe Amidst version is still Java 1.8.0 required. And it doesn't load with only java 16 installed if you don't speficy it in cmd like that "java -jar <path_to_amidst.exe>".

I have the same issue. On my pc I have only Java 16 installed. And when I try to start amidst.exe I have an error "This application requires java runtime enviromend 1.8.0". When I start it via command line it works fine.

wait how tf did you run the command java -jar on a .exe file ?

You've always (for as long as I've been using it) been to do that as long as it's a java binary

Yes that does work just fine :)

you could also make a batch file and just start that

im so confused on what you said lol can you make a video or something to show me how to do it?

Open Notepad. write : java -jar C:/your/path/to/admist.exe . Save it as .bat file. Double click the .bat when you want to open admist

The command line is giving me the same error as the direct launch. The main selection screen launches, the error pops up when selecting 1.17.1

I solved this problem by installing the Java JDK-16.0.2. It installed in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-16.0.2 I did not want to interfere with my Java 8 installation so I created a batch file.

My Amidst 4.7.exe happens to be in @appdata@AppData\Roaming.minecraft\Amidst.

I created the following batch file named Start Amidst.bat

cd c:\Program Files\Java\jdk-16.0.2\bin javaw.exe -jar C:\Users\AlanM\AppData\Roaming.minecraft\Amidst\amidst-v4-7.exe exit

Amidst 4.7 runs and maps worlds from all releases including 1.17 and 1.1711.

Can confirm justTOBBI's suggestion of putting "java -jar amidst-v4-7.exe" in a .bat file works for my system. Thanks.
