This is the same error that I get.
I'm still getting it even after following all of the suggestions I can find.
I've updated to 1.4 and I can still run Zombie Craft fine. For the people who are getting stuck on the "Done Loading" screen: did you follow the instructions in this post? viewtopic.php?f=1036&t=217997&start=30#p3505359
That's what worked for me when I had that problem.
And to the people with a brief black window after clicking the shortcut: follow the post above the one I linked.

I split the two posts up to make them easier to read and what not.

I found out that you don't just have to run it as the administrator, you have to log on as the administrator account and play. It started working, then said: Fatal error occurred: null or something like that.... WTF????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had this problem myself, and it's trickier than the last one. I tried a lot of things: re-installing it, running as admin, installing ZC then installing MC over it, renaming minecraft.jar to zombiecraft.jar, and a few other things. None of them worked, and the solution was simpler than most of what I tried. It all stemmed from my not having the most recent version of minecraft.exe from http://www.minecraft.net
To fix (or at least what worked for me):
1) Make sure you delete all of the files from your "C:\Users\*your username*\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft" folder (or whatever your install folder may be).
2) Install a fresh copy of ZombieCraft (As of this posting, most recent version is 1.4.1).
3) Run ZombieCraft and update it. If you're reading this, the updating process will get stalled at 69% (Error (4): null).
4) Close the ZombieCraft window. If you try to run it again and say to continue without updating, it will stall near the end, at "Done Loading".
5) **Important** Download the most recent version of minecraft.exe from http://www.minecraft.net.
Link: http://www.minecraft.net/download.jspYES, THIS MATTERS
6) Run the new copy of minecraft.exe you just downloaded. Log in, and when it asks if you want to update, click yes. Allow it to fully update.
7) Close out of your MineCraft window. At this point, if you try to run ZombieCraft, you won't be asked about updating, but it will still hang up at "Done Loading"
8) FINALLY, install ZombieCraft again (this will be the second time). Install it the same as you did in step #2.
9) After that, when you run ZombieCraft, it won't ask you about updating and it won't stall at "Done Loading". It should work fine!
I don't know why the older versions of minecraft.exe didn't work for me, why the updater throws an error at 69%, or why the loader hangs at "Done Loading" after that, and I don't really feel like looking into it.
Feel free to ask any questions.
i did all that and it still stalls
Same here. I have never played Zombie Craft, and if it won't be updated for Beta 1.4, I will never get that chance to play Zombie Craft.

The Exe thing didn't work considering I already have the latest update and everything(updated 20 minutes before this was posted) I tried updating again after initial try and then blanked everything restored it by logging in and updating then I ran zombiecraft and it did not work!
I have reinstalled it and all that crap, but my minecraft screen stays on DOne loading
i tried to delete meta inf
didnt work either
(then i reinstalled again)
Still doesnt work!
Help asap please(sorry to be a hastle)
I got it working with 1.4_01, but i tried it on another computer with 1.4_01, and the second one didnt work. An error message shows up and says that minecraft isnt clean, and to redelete it. I did delete it a bunch of times, and it wouldnt work. Why isnt it working?
When i run the batch file, cmd comes up for a split second, but nothing happens.
That also happened to me. Try running it as administrator. Sorry I kinda forgot how I fixed that one.
Same thing happens with me, and I'm an administrator...
EDIT: I realized it's not yet 1.5_01 compatible, so I downgraded to 1.4_01, when I open the Play Zombiecraft.bat file it STILL doesn't work, it opens for a split second then is gone.
EDIT 2: I have the texture pack working, I'm going to try re-installing the game.
EDIT 3: I think I have it working, the installer told me there would be a shortcut, and I thought the .bat was the shortcut, it's the ZombieCraft Launch.jar file, LOCATED in the .minecraft folder (omg...). So I don't need assistance.
EDIT 4: Stuck at the "Done Loading" screen. (EDIT 4.1: I deleted the video, I just posted it in ragequit.)
EDIT 5: I realized your MineCraft has to be legit, mine isn't because my mom already has too much on her credit card and won't pay it off until about June, but I will get it soon. Because I already feel wrong about pirating the game, yet it's too addicting to delete it.
I ALSO SUGGEST PEOPLE HAVING TROUBLES WITH THE .BAT FILE READ THIS POST (OR AT LEAST THE "EDIT 3" SECTION), IT MIGHT HELP YOU A TON!
so i went on the site and downloaded it i extracted it and everythin but where is the installer? i believe i did everythin it said to do but i can not find this "installer" plz help
If anybody still looks at this, after installing, can I reinstall my mods that I had previous to installing it to the minecraft.jar or will that mess something up?
I also get this every time I go to this page... Phishing much?
You can't
SOPA? How about NOPA
