Mother's Day Card:My first run at high quality graphics :)

[JavaMan]

Well, after piddling around for I think two years, I finally have something in the area of simulation to post on the project forums.

I put this little "thing" together this morning for my mom.
Here's a screen shot. The island mass and house calmly rotate around the y axis.

Her favorite spot in the world would be on a beach, so I thought why not use my favorite graphics engine to put her there? All in crappy textures.



If you want to try it out. Here it is. The main class is Main and I ran it with -Xmx300m
The jar file does not have the main class specified in the manifest so you have to run it in the command line with say

java -cp jpct.jar;lwjgl.jar;MD.jar -Xmx300m Main

assuming jpct,lwjgl,MD and the lwjgl dll are all in the local directory.

It's a bit awkward to get it to run...or in other words: I can't! I wrote a batch file to start it, with the correct jars included and such, but it failed because the Main.class in the jar isn't in the mothersday-package where it is supposed to be. I've corrected this too and now it starts, but my TFT doesn't offer the requested resolution of 1600*1200, so it fails again...

but it failed because the Main.class

Hmmm. That's strange. Did you run it like something java -cp jpct.jar;lwjgl.jar;MD.jar -Xmx300m Main2 ?

resolution of 1600*1200, so it fails again...

Ok, oops. I forgot some people may not be able to do that. I will upload one that tries some other resolutions.

I've started Main. Should i have used Main2 instead?

Edit: I should have read your post better. Obviously, Main2 is the one. Anyway, i'm still stuck at 1280*1024...

[JavaMan]

Ok, I uploaded a new version. This one allows you to choose a resolution from a list.

Oh, and by the way. I renamed Main2 to Main, so run Main.

LOL cute! I hope your mom gave you a huge kiss

I'll download and see it the soonest possible.

Edit:
It doesn't run. The jar's manifest doesn't specify the booting class...

Hehe, no kiss, but she liked it.

No, it can't be run by double-clicking it in Windows explorer. It has to run from the command line. For instance say MD.jar jpct.jar lwjgl.jar and the lwjgl dll are all in the same directory then I ran it with

java -cp jpct.jar;lwjgl.jar;MD.jar -Xmx300m Main
