Well you're running on windows seven, so this could easily be a vista issue since windows seven is just a mask for vista. Try looking through the modding on vista tutorial and see if anything there helps. Link to tutorial : http://fabletlcmod.com/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=7239& ;start=0&

Read the site rules, as well as individual thread rules, stickies and announcements, and use search, or you will have smartassy or exasperated ownage rained down upon you by the site's crack team of mods and admins. Also, you can find all you need to get started on modding here.

Well I dunno what to tell y'all then. I'm not really big on chocolate box because I can't even spawn a chest with it. I still suspect this has something to do with vista/7 but I have no clue what it could be.

I hate you people.

This issue is inherited from AlbionExplorer. ChocolateBox starts up just fine, it's minimized. Click on it in the task bar and it will open. If it does not, right-click|Restore/Maximize.

seriously, you legitimately think that we wouldn't have tried to maximize it, that does not work.

Yea, I seriously do. People overthink things, sure there are a lot of factors such as lack of prerequisites, .NET Framework conflicts, bad registry data, stupid computer, countless and I mean countless user errors, just all kinds of crap to consider. But this one's easy.

Of all the kinds of problems that can be experienced with CBox, nearly all of them can be attributed to user-error or user-stupid... or both. You, however, experience this issue between the points where errors are thrown. You get to the Tip of the Day prompt, that means CBox loaded okay. At this point, if the app is shown in the taskbar but the app does not appear on the screen, it's minimized. That's what it is. There is nothing else.

Again, this issue is inherited from AlbionExplorer so this issue has been around for several, several years. It's nothing new. It's very common.

alright well turns out Stranger was correct, i apologize. open your task manager and hit maximise when using windows 7, as you cannot maximise it from the task bar.

Must have something to do with Vista/Windows 7, as XP has never given me trouble with that. In the end, I'm glad you figured it out.

There are bugs in the application. I'm not going to pretend they aren't there, 'cause they are. If the application crashes while you are using it do not come here shouting "It cr4shes!1!". That's completely pointless. I have no time for that crap.

If you want me to deal with these bugs, you need to find out what causes the crash or bug. You can do this by trying to replicate what happened before the error. Post on the forums about your problem only after you have found out what is the sequence of events that cause the problem.

Make sure you download them using Anything Other Than Internet Explorer.


If ChocolateBox doesn't run when you Try to, See if you have ALL the requirements.

If it still doesn't work try it in Compatibility mode.

If it still doesn't work try downloading the ChocolateBox-x64.exe
[Available in the same thread [first post] ]

If it still doesn't work try it in Compatibility mode

If it still doesn't work, Don't ask me.

Umm, I have the same problem, except when the solution above didn't work. I can open fable explorer (Shadownet) But not chocolate box, all that comes up is the tip thing.
Yes I am using windows 7.


That's ...... AWESOME!

Its actually working, Just that the Actual window won't open

Open up Task manager and then right click on chocolate box (in task manager) and click maximize.

If that doesn't work, the only other fix I found on my own is redownloading it.
