Downloading Issues

I'm trying to download version 1.7.2, but its not working for me. I downloaded the robocode-1.7.2.0-setup.JAR, but when I try to open it I just get an error message that I can't read. Does anyone know how I can get robocode on my computer again?--CrazyBassoonist 15:43, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

I just downloaded and installed it without problems on my Mac from this page. Have you tried re-downloading? Or maybe you could try grabbing an older version from here to see if that works? --Voidious 15:33, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

I've tried it many times, and every file I download gives me an error message when I run it--CrazyBassoonist 14:32, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Argh, really? I haven't tried with the latest versions, but you used to be able to manually extract the .jar and just copy the directory over. A .jar is the same format as a .zip, so just rename it to .zip/double click, or open it with an unzip program. Maybe that would work? --Voidious 00:09, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
