Teaching with Stencyl / Re: offical help guide for linux install fails, 2016, need 2020 steps
« on: November 11, 2020, 03:55:49 pm »
I followed what i think was the same path. And was able to get this working on Ubuntu 20.04 without any problems.
I had to do two things. One was make the SW.Jar file and executable. You can do that via per Properties > Permissions "Execute" when running it. Then if i double clicked on that the splash screen came up but nothing happened after that. If i execute it from the command line with "java -jar sw.jar" then it runs. I was able to load in "Platformer" from the sample games and get that to run.
