Updater fails to start

[ThiagoTGM]

I can't start the updater. It just says "SocketException: Invalid argument: connect" everytime I open it.

I have all drivers updated and I'm using Java 7u25 (and Java 6u45 because of Minecraft)

Anyone can help me?

EDIT: I installed manually, and I still can't play because of the same thing.

Okay, I found the solution.

Apparently is a problem with Java 7 that it wants to use IPv6 to connect when it shouldn\'t.

To fix, just make a batch file where the content is

java -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar StarMade-starter.exe
PAUSE

If you don\'t know what is a batch file, in short you just need to copy that in notepad and save it with .bat in the end of the file name (ignore the warning Windows give). Note that it must be in the same directory (folder) as the launcher.

Spoke too soon. The launcher works, but not the game itself. F*ck my life.

Okay, so I googled the issue and found a solution.

Assuming that you are on windows, just open Command Prompt and type

\"setx _JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true\"

Now Java will stop doing sumb stuff.
