I have another game that uses rectangles instead of textures which works fine. When I run it I get this error: 

C:\Users\Owner>cd desktop

C:\Users\Owner\Desktop>java -jar FLIPPERFLAP1.0.jar
java.io.FileNotFoundException: res\FlubberFlap.png (The system cannot find the path specified)
        at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
        at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:131)
        at FSMain.MainFS.main(MainFS.java:68)

C:\Users\Owner\Desktop>

In line 68 where I load the texture, I do this :

wood = TextureLoader.getTexture("PNG", new FileInputStream(new File("res/SuperGuy.png")));

It works when I use the IDE (eclipse) but not after exported. The images are in a source folder called res. When I use JarSplice do I have to export the textures in natives or jars?

  • \$\begingroup\$ Your problem is that you are using FileInputStream to load resources. You should use ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream or similar. See gamedev.stackexchange.com/a/50967/2158 \$\endgroup\$

First step is make sure you have the resources bundled with the JAR you create. Try to move the res/ folder inside the src/ folder. And export the jar like this.

enter image description here

And create the fat jar as you did. This gets rid of the Eclipse's JAR in JAR loader.

  • \$\begingroup\$ You should keep it as a package. Just create a package with res as name and drag the files inside your res folder into it. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ You add the jars lwjgl.jar lwjgl-util.jar slick-util.jar and jars of any other libraries you are using. Then add the natives that you have from the LWJGL download. \$\endgroup\$
