I am trying to initiate a BitmapFont, when I run my project it works but when I jarsplice the project and then run it I get this.

Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" com.badlogic.gdx.utils.GdxRuntimeExcepti
on: Error reading file: assets\texture\font.fnt (Absolute)
        at com.badlogic.gdx.files.FileHandle.read(FileHandle.java:144)

        at com.badlogic.gdx.files.FileHandle.read(FileHandle.java:140)
        ... 5 more

This is how I load the font.

fontTexture = new Texture("assets/texture/font.tga");
buttonFont = new BitmapFont(new FileHandle("assets/texture/font.fnt"), new TextureRegion(fontTexture), true);
titleFont = new BitmapFont(new FileHandle("assets/texture/font.fnt"), new TextureRegion(fontTexture), true);

They're all all the fields are public static.

  • Take a look at [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/q/3369794/4125191) - by default files come from the filesystem, not from the jar. – RealSkeptic Oct 20 '14 at 09:06

LibGDX has already a function to get Filehandle directly from JAR. I load fonts like this:

BitmapFont font = new BitmapFont(Gdx.files.internal("texture/font.fnt"));

You should also make sure you have correctly linked assets folder.
