Hello there, it's a honor to see that you're playing our game TheoTown :)
_/ Troubles running the game? \_________________________________________________
In case you have trouble running the game please try to install Java manually
(e.g. from https://www.java.com/download/). After the installation you may have
to restart your PC for the installation to complete.
If you have tried that but still are receiving error messages you may want to
search for updates for you graphics card and install them.
For Intel GPUs it seems to be a solution to use a specific version of Java:

In case you have trouble with too small UI because of high DPI display you may
want to enable DPI compatibility mode by windows for TheoTown.exe
(Right click on it->Properties->Compatibility->High DPI settings
->Override DPI setting with "System"). The way on how to do that may vary
dependent on OS and language.
In case you get out of memory errors or don't have the largest option available
for region generation you may try to allow Java to use more memory for running
the game. You can do that by adding the following program argument in the launch
settings of the game in the Steam client:
-Xmx1024m
(this would allow the game to consume up to 1 gig of RAM)
_/ Game files access \__________________________________________________________

Maps and plugins are interchangeable with the Android and iOS versions of the
