Could you please tell me which operating system you are using?

If it's Linux you could have a look at issue #56.

Otherwise please start JSkat on a terminal/console with the following command:

java -jar JSkat-0.16.0-all.jar

Thanks for the quick response.
I am using Windows 10.
I hve already tried the command, unfortunaly the jar does not start on this command either.

I just tried it myself with Windows 10 and Java 8 Update 191 and JSkat is starting as expected. Do you have the latest Java version installed?

You can find out with this command:

java -version

I actually did not, but instead I had Java 8 Update 192 installed. Following your advice, I deinstalled Update 192 and installed 191, unfortunaly without a positive result. Weirdly, all my other .jar applications are running just fine, only JSkat does not even show any error or notification.

Hmm, it's hard to guess what's going wrong without having any error message. I could think of some incompatibility with your graphics driver and JavaFX that I don't have in my virtualized Windows 10 here.

You could try out whether the non-JavaFX version 0.15 of JSkat is running to prove that assumption:

https://github.com/b0n541/jskat-multimodule/releases/download/v0.15.0/JSkat-0.15.0.jar

I'm currently working on making JSkat compatible with Java 11. You can checkout the latest state from the develop branch and do

gradlew.bat run

in the directory you've checked out.

The non-JavaFX version is working fine, so the problem seems to be my graphic driver. Thanks anyway!

I have built a new snapshot JAR from develop with Java 11:

https://jskat.org/JSkat-Java11-Windows-0.17.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

So you could try to install Java 11 and give it a try with java -jar

Hi, I don't know whether the problem still exists for Jokah16.

I've tested the snapshot with a Win10 machine, java version "12.0.2" 2019-07-16, while starting it from a Git Bash and I was able to play on a local table.

There where just some warnings (ReflectionsExceptions), e.g.:

could not get type for name org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.GeneratedClosure
could not get type for name com.google.gson.JsonDeserializer

and the like.

Since version 0.17 JSkat requires at least Java 11 and is shipped with JavaFX included. So this bug might not occur anymore.
