Which would make sense, if you couldn't just download the server jar right off the damned website without a password. I don't need the Minecraft.jar, I know you can't give me that. But considering the minecraft_server jar can be downloaded without being logged into the minecraft launcher client, and -anyone- can download it, I fail to see the problem here.

As far as calling me ignorant and dumb, I've tried for two days now to get this bloody thing to work, consulting video tutorials and what have you, I am starting to get fed up with it. If you've only insults to offer instead of help, kindly sod off.

Also, yes, I am downloading from minecraft.net.

Following the instructions from http://forum.industrial-craft.…page=Thread&threadID=1366 , I attempted to start an IC2 server for my friend and I to play on, however it seems to defy all my attempts to master it.

The first inconsistancy for me is that it seems to change the extension on the Minecraft.net download of the server jar file into a .zip. I figured that wouldn't be much of a problem, and changed it into a .jar file, and initiated a server using;

@ECHO OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui
PAUSE

The server initiated, and ran just fine. However, when I added the two required mods to the .jar file via winrar, and then put the IC2 server jar into the mods folder, it generated a cmd prompt error.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.VerifyError: (class: net/minecraft/server/M
inecraftServer, method: s signature: ()Z) Incompatible argument to function
Could not find the main class: net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer. Program wil
l exit.
Press any key to continue . . .

My confusion knows no bounds.

If someone wouldn't mind just winzipping a working server and sending it to me, that would just nip this issue in the bud. I am at a loss.
