Vortex thinks I don't have Java. But I DOOOO...

On my laptop, DSR patcher is working perfectly as a tool that I added to my Vortex dashboard and was very easy to install.

 

Now I'm trying to do the same thing with a Vortex install on a newer, better gaming computer but when I press the run arrow it gives me an error telling me I don't have Java installed.

 

Java is in my environment variables path.

 

If I type java -version in cmd I get "java version "1.8.0_201"".

I think my original post may have been ambiguous. Please see edited version.

 

OK, so if you have Java set up on both Laptop and desktop, and you have DSR working fine on the laptop, can't you just duplicate whatever it is you did on your laptop in order to get it working on your Desktop?

 

Such as the TARGET and START IN fields in the Tool in the Dashboard, and having Java in your %app% path etc?

"can't you just duplicate whatever it is you did on your laptop in order to get it working on your Desktop?"

 

That's what I would think. I'm doing the exact same thing, but on my desktop Vortex says I don't have java installed.

 

 

So, you have the same shortcuts with the same TARGET and START IN/WORKING Directories set in the shorcuts.

 

You have the same START IN and TARGET directories set in the DSR tool in the Vortex dashboard

 

You have Java in the %appdata% on comps comps the same, the same version of Java on both comps installed at the same path?

I don't know if both machines have java on the same path, only that I used the same method on each machine to point Vortex to their respective .jar files:

 

- I pressed the "Add Tool" Button

- I pressed the folder icon on "Target" dialogue and navigated to the "Dual Sheath Redux Patch.jar" file in my actual data folder, not the vortex virtual folder

- did the same for Start In

 

On my laptop, it works perfectly. On my desktop, I press the run arrow and it gives me an error telling me I don't have Java installed, BUT if I navigate to the .jar file manually it runs perfectly.

 

Not sure what you mean by %appdata%.

Have you tried this?

your paths will vary
