    How to run (GUI environment - for general users)

    The latest version of Oracle Java must be installed to run Air Comic Server.

    How to install Java (Windows/Linux/Mac)

    If Java is installed, download the attached file at the bottom, unzip it and click AirComicServer.jar to launch it.


    Option Guide

    • IP Address
      • The IP address shows all the IP addresses of the computer running AirComicServer. If you are using a NAT router, if it supports UPnP, there will be two IPs (external, internal). You can use internal IP for home connection and external IP for external connection.
    • TCP Port
      • This is necessary for communication. When you create a server in Air Comic Viewer, you must set the same number for TCP port.
    • Password
      • If you want to set a password, you can write down the password you want.
    • Do not Resize
      • AirComicServer optimizes the image size for each Android device by default. If the your server specification is too low for performance, selecting this option will not perform this size optimization, which will reduce the performance load.
    • Do not convert WEBP
      • AirComicServer uses Google's WEBP format to transfer images since v0.9.0 version, reducing data usage by about 40% without degrading image quality. If the server specification is too low for performance, selecting this option will not perform a Webp conversion, which will reduce the performance load.
    • Run at startup
      • Let the server start as soon as you run the program.
    • Runs at windows logon
      • This function is only available in Windows OS and allows the program to be executed automatically when the user logs in after booting the computer.
    • Add Directory / Remove Directory
      • Add or delete directories to share.

    After completing the setting, press the Start Server button and the red box at the bottom will turn green and the server will be changed to running.

    If you see a firewall warning, please select " Unblock ".
