failed to find the Simutronics launcher

[Ragepriest]

So, I'm coming back to GS after several months, as I always seem to do. I'm trying to install lich and, as I always seem to do, I'm running into some issues.

I installed the SGE Launcher, Stormfront, Ruby and then Lich. Through SGE, Stormfront starts up just fine, but it doesn't see/connect/recognize lich. When I start up Lich, the Link tab is useless, as both options (Website & SGE Launch Chain) are grayed out. So, turning to the Game Entry tab, I input all the necessary info, hit Connect, select my character and lich closes. That's it. Nothing else happens, no windows, errors or anything. I check the latest debug file and see this:

2017-11-25 15:52:04: error: failed to find the Simutronics launcher

Once again, through SGE, Stormfront opens up just fine, but it doesn't trigger Lich. Lich too opens up just fine, but it doesn't trigger Stormfront. Seeing that last line "failed to find Simutronics launcher", I suspect I need to find out how to point lich to the location of the launcher. Any ideas on how to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Wrong ruby version, you want 2.0.0
https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2015/12/16/ruby-2-0-0-p648-released/

Straight from downloads at lichrproject.org
Don't download Ruby 2.1 or 2.2 or a 64 bit version of Ruby. The gems that Lich needs have not yet been precompiled for these versions. (If you know how to compile them and are willing to go through the trouble, these versions will probably work.)
Don't download a version of Ruby older than 2.0. It won't work with Lich 4.6.

Don't I feel like a dumbass... I completely missed that. I saw the 2.x bit and assumed it meant anything that started with "2.x" and wasn't "64-bit".

Downloading and installing the correct version, everything is working fine. Amazing how smoothly things operate when you actually read the instructions, no? When I go in through SGE it still doesn't activate Lich, but when I log in using the Lich shortcut, it all works. A slight sacrifice for the sake of functionality.

Thanks, gents!
