Lawena doesn't set its own directory correctly and won't launch game [Linux] #128

Closed IAmThermite closed 5 years ago

IAmThermite commented 5 years ago

Issue Summary

Lawena will not launch on Linux. Lawena will save its config files to the home directory /home/<name> and look for the jars in the same directory.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Lawena from any folder.
  2. Choose correct tf directory and a video directory.
  3. Click Start TF2

It appears that Lawena is attempting to load the jar files from the home directory and not detecting the correct location that it is stored in. Technically a workaround would be to have all Lawena files in the root home directory but that seems unnecessary. The config and log files are saved in the home directory as well.

Strangely, it works perfectly when I run through the Eclipse IDE.
