Polymotion Player Installation

Installing Polymotion Launcher

Polymotion Launcher is a utility that allows you to install additional
instances of MHC corresponding to each Polymotion system, such as
Polymotion Chat and Polymotion Player. Follow the instructions to install
Polymotion Launcher:

1.

Double-click

MHCPolymotionLauncherSetup_

x86-v2.6.0.10.exe

or

MHCPolymotionLauncherSetup_

x64-v2.6.0.10.exe

to launch the installer depending on whether

you are doing a 32- or 64-bit installation.

2.

If not already removed, delete the MHC Server and MHC Client
shortcuts from the Desktop screen.

3.

Ensure that you choose the install location as one within the MHC
folder.

Caution

MHC v2.6 doesn’t support backward compatibility from 64-bit to
32-bit installation. This means that once you have installed a 64-bit
installation of MHC v2.6, you may not be able to go back to the
32-bit installation.
