I’m trying out choicescript for the first time, for the most part it’s not difficult to understand, but I cannot figure this out. ---

Please take note of this thread if you haven’t already: > [@Choice Script Changes To Run Tests With Firefox ver 68 ( See Post 12 & 31)](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/choice-script-changes-to-run-tests-with-firefox-ver-68-see-post-12-31/59649/33): > > In the latest version of ChoiceScript up on Github, it’s now somewhat easier to get this stuff to work. You do still have to install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) (one time only). Then, when you download and extract ChoiceScript, you’ll see I’ve added some new scripts to launch the ChoiceScript server. Windows: Double-click on run-server.bat .

Yes I’ve tried that. I opened index in my editor, then I changed the title name, just to test everything for the first time. It still doesn’t seem to work. ---

Ok let’s check this together…you have downloaded choicessript from github? and you extracted the zip file? ![1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/choiceofgames/original/3X/9/d/9d44c2500f78d43b978f5243bc8967477cb7368e.jpeg) ![2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/choiceofgames/original/3X/e/8/e8d49ae1e1c795617ed6c3c71065cbb4599c24dc.jpeg) ![3](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/choiceofgames/original/3X/4/b/4be4631abd37fef32c33e04c87595c1e3a98fa1c.jpeg) Did you get the package with all the folders? like below ![4](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/choiceofgames/original/3X/8/a/8aef893c83036fe851a156b1209798ce7dfda1d1.jpeg) Or if you are using choicescript IDE your files would look different more like this ![5](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/choiceofgames/original/3X/6/2/627e092a03be2721a77fef08cd44c372cc9c089b.jpeg) I used google chrome and windows 10 to download the files… maybe try with google chrome instead of firefox… Also, are you using a Chromebook? here’s a link to extract files on Chromebook…[this](https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-zip-and-unzip-files-on-a-chromebook/?amp) ---

I just used the index in the editor and I had the same error message… You said something about using the index in the editor folder, Can you try using the index that is outside of the editor folder…or the one in the web folder…see below… ![6](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/choiceofgames/original/3X/a/b/aba2fe882da2f366d8c5d39ebb568f2c5ba4ca92.jpeg) Remember that the folder you will work with is the web folder…that is where all your scenes files are… and you can use quicktest html and randomtest html to run tests. ---
