[LibGDX][Android] Random files not loading

Newbie & Debugging Questions
#1

I have a bit of a weird problem here.

I have 75 assorted sprites I am trying to load into the LibGDX AssetManager, I have them as static fields in an Assets class, as well as the AssetManager and a load method.

The problem is, it loads fine on desktop but for android it seems to be failing to load certain ones. I have no idea why really. It seems to first try to load dependencies and that fails, but why for these particular files?..

Here is the stack trace, the files are there, the folders are linked, cleaned refreshed project (and gradle) but still nothing. Sorry for huge wall of text.

i guess the base path is different on the device. maybe what [icode]new File("./").getAbsoluteFile().toString()[/icode] tells can clear that.

Even if I am using internal file handle with LibGDX? For the record this does the same with compiling to Desktop, however it is only 3 Assets out of the 75 that are doing it, compiles fine in Eclipse.

Weird.

#4

Does anyone have an idea why this might be happening?

It only happens with certain files and only on android/exported jar, runs fine in eclipse. All paths are the same and project setup seems to be ok.

#5

Clean and rebuild? Copy the files to a new project and try to rebuild?

#6

are those files really there, in the final .jar or directory pointing to ?

#7

Will try that.

Yeah they are in the .jar, opened it up and had a look.

I put them all in a sub folder called data, made no difference. Removed spaces from all file names, made no difference.

I even tried loading them in directly using:

Texture texture = new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("data/NewAssets/MainMenu/Button_Highscores.png"));

Still can’t find the file, finds it just fine when running from eclipse.

#8

Maybe it has something to do with the way the asset folder is refreshed in Eclipse? I mean, the asset folder on disk and the folder used when run from Eclipse are not always in sync, so just maybe these files may be removed on the disk folder but still present in the Eclipse assets folder?

#9

Found the problem.

My fault, had the file name wrong. Never thought to check it as eclipse was running the program just fine.
