If you get a notepad file when u download launcher...

if its a .txt file, the file name should be.
Launcher.bat.txt right?
rename the launcher and remove the .txt

so it should come up as
Launcher.bat

i got the file as launcher.bat but it is a notepad file. anyways to solve it?

You can make ur own launcher if dat helpz. This is Part of wat Urban was saying in top thread.

NOW , the Launcher.bat .
Basically to make this its very easy
All you have to do is FIRST right click at blank space
Of your Maplestory folder. THEN New>text document
Now double click the text document and type in the following words in it

Start localhost.exe perfectionistms.servegame.com 8484

Now, File>Save as
As For File name : Launcher.bat
Save As type : All Files
Encoding : ANSI
Ok and save it...
Now in the folder you should see the launcher.bat in a batch form
Instead of notepad
(notice the notepad is still there.
you can delete it if you want.
The Launcher.bat will not overwrite the notepad as its in a different format. )

Now double click the launcher and huala you are in the game!
