Troubleshooting:
Q: How do I open the .RAR file?
A .rar file is a compressed package of multiple files together, you will need a (very commonly used) tool to extract it. You can use either WinZip, WinRar or 7zip to do this, I would recommend 7zip, since it's open source and completely free.
(You can get the "64-bit x64" version, unless your computer is very old and running on 32-bit x86, if you're not sure you can check like this:
Click the Start button, then choose Settings. Select System. Choose About. Check the bit version on the System type field.)
Once you have your tool installed, right-click "MtE v4.00 windows.rar" and find the "extract here" option. After extracting you can run "Max_The_Elf_DEMO" to play the game.
Q: Some of you might get an error like this: (Missing UnityPlayer.dll): the problem could be that the antivirus or malware defender was flagging my game as a potential threat (unknown excecutable file). This makes the defender delete the .DLL file before it can launch.
You could try the following to fix the problem:
- Delete all the files that you extracted except the .RAR file
- Disable your antivirus/malware/defender software. (If you're not sure how, google might help, I'm not an expert on every different defender)
- Extract the .RAR file with the defender turned off.
- Try running the game now and see if you get the same error.
If you find new bugs or problems:
We have a channel on discord (#playtester comments) where you can post your thoughts and findings, You can also message me directly about big bugs but I mostly prefer to be contacted on the discord server.
Coming next time:
- More enemies!
- Boss Fight with Fae!
- More quality of life updates, more sound effects, more animations
- More lore and cutscenes.
We hope you enjoy the update!!
