XxArchAngelxX Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 **NOTE: it has come to my attention that you will not have to turn the UAC off for this to work, but its an annoying thing so if i were you i would turn it off anyway. (thanks Goddie)Disable or Turn Off UAC (User Account Control) in Control Panel*** Go to Start Menu -> Control Panel -> User Accounts and Family Safety -> User Account.* Go to Start Menu -> Control Panel -> System and Security -> Action Center.* Click or right click on Flag icon in notification area (system tray), and then Open Action Center.* Type “MsConfig†in Start Search to start System Configuration, then go to Tools tab, select Change UAC Settings, then click on Launch button.Click on User Account Control settings link.![](http://i397.photobucket.com/albums/pp54/XxArchAngelxX_2009/win7-uac.jpg)Slide the slider bar to the lowest value (towards Never Notify), with description showing Never notify me.![](http://i397.photobucket.com/albums/pp54/XxArchAngelxX_2009/windows-7-disable-uac.jpg)Click OK to make the change effective.Restart the computer to turn off User Account control.2\. Ok Microsoft removed DirectX 7 and 8 for Visual Basic from the System32 directory in vista so i am guessing they did in Win7 as well (if not this wont hurt)you can download them [here](http://www.worldwarproductions.com/Eclipse%20Library/dx7vb.dll) and [here](http://www.worldwarproductions.com/Eclipse%20Library/dx8vb.dll) (from GodLords website so thank him)If you have downloaded them then you should put them in "C:WINDOWSSystem32"Now you can register the two DLL files. You can do this by typing:```cd C:WINDOWSSystem32regsvr32 dx7vb.dllregsvr32 dx8vb.dll```In a consoleafter installing them you will need the Eclipse Library Files (ELI) without them eclipse wont work. you can get the library files [here](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/index.php)after downloading them click the "Run First" file.then "run second" fileand then "run third" file.(there may be a few errors while running the 3rd. but if it is more than 5 errors you did something wrong)with that done you should now have all the things you need to run eclipsenow download eclipse [here](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/ee.php)3\. after you have downloaded eclipse open the "server" file and run the "server.exe" file4.then open the client folder and run the client.exenow you should be able to run eclipse on Window 7extras:here are some alternate methods to disable the UAC:Method 2: **Disable UAC with Registry EditorRegEdit)*** Run Registry Editor (RegEdit).* Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesSystem* Locate the following REG_DWORD value: EnableLUA* Set the value of EnableLUA to 0.* Optional step to suppress UAC consent prompt dialog, locate the following REG_DWORD value: ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin* Set the value of ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin to 0 (optional).* Exit from Registry Editor and restart the computer to turn off UAC.**Method 3: Turn Off UAC Using Group Policy**For Windows 7 Ultimate, Business or Enterprise edition which has Local Group Policy, or computer joined to domain and has Active Directory-based GPO, the group policy can be used to disable UAC for local computer or many computer across large networks at once.* Enter GPedit.msc in Start Search to run Local Group Policy editor.

You don't need to disable the UAC at all, unless you want to get rid of that "feature", which isn't Eclipse-specific.Regards, Godlord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxArchAngelxX Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 lol ok, I will add to the top about not needing to turn it off but i will not take it out, it is one of the only real things i have contributed to eclipse and even if you dont need to change the UAC for eclipse, people can read this and see a few different ways of turning it of off they ever have/want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
