Hi everybody!
Last year I was developing a game using STS Eclipse with GDX and Gradle. This game is a simple 2D platformer which doesn't require extensive libraries, just the basic draw loop stuff.
I am trying to continue my work on this game but I cannot figure out how to get it working. I have installed Eclipse STS and imported my old project, but I am given some errors trying to resolve gdx classes.
So instead of importing I will create a new project using the most recent libGDX project creator.
1. Download latest libGDX
2. Fill in project builder with correct fields
3. Click advanced and tick eclipse project
4. Click yes
5. Error with Java path. I have been having problems with my Java path ever since reinstalling my OS
6. As you can see Java is installed in the correct path.
How do I fix this?
I have tried uninstalling all versions of Java and removing all traces of Java paths in my sys/user environment variables, BUT I will do this AGAIN just in case.
My OS:
Windows 7 Ultimate
Java:
jre-8u60-windows-x64
jdk-8u60-windows-x64
Android:
android-studio-bundle-141.2178183-windows
EDIT: For my dev purposes (simple 2D platformer) is there a better platform compared to libGDX?
1. Uninstalled java & removed all env java vars
_________________________________________
2. Reinstalled Java JDK 8
3. Currently creating a LibGDX Project (downloading a lot of stuff - this didn't happen before)
4. Load project into STS Eclipse
5. Select Help -> Install new software -> Add
Change location to: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
Select everything and click next, accept, install etc
6. Right click android project -> Properties -> Android
Tick ONE of the Project Build Targets
Done.
