Uploading applets onto GameJolt?

Newbie & Debugging Questions
#1

Has anybody ever uploaded a Java Applet onto gamejolt.com?

I am having some trouble doing so. Namely, what sort of .Jar do you upload (runnable?) and what class do you input into the class field?

If you have, I would like to know how you did it.

Thanks

I would imagine a runnable jar… And for the class i’m guessing the main class that is required to play your game

#3

But it’s an applet… Main class?

#4

I thought even applets had some type of main class…? I haven’t used applets for a couple of months however and that was the only time I ever actually used it so I am not entirely sure

#5

The main class, if you can call it that, is the one that extends Applet/JApplet/WhateverOtherKindOfAppletApplet

#6

Right, let’s say that class is called GameApplet

Would I input “GameApplet,” or “GameApplet.class,” or “GameApplet.java,” or what?

#7

Try googling it.

I’ve never ever made an applet before, but my guess is that it’s your.package.name.GameApplet.class

#8

When using an applet within html it would look something like this:


<APPLET
    ARCHIVE = MyApplet.jar
    CODE = AnAppletSubclass.class
    WIDTH = 300
    HEIGHT = 100
>
</APPLET>

so i would imagine you would write .class

#9

Ah yes! The package! I completely forgot to include the package!

Yes, I included the package directory and it worked!

(Funnily enough, I did Google this and nobody ever seems to have discussed this)

Thanks

I have an applet in gamejolt, try search for Bubo4K.

And it’s exactly same as normal applet.
