If you type (from that directory):

dir Fight.class

does it show the file:

Fight.class (10,530 bytes)?

If that file is present, and typing

java Fight militia militia

gives you the error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Fight

...then there is some crazy problem that I don't understand, like a corrupt file, or a broken Java installation. Sorry

DIR command gives :


D:\Strategy\dominions2\doc\CombatSim>dir fight.class

Le volume dans le lecteur D est DATA
Le numéro de série du volume est 7FD4-62B6
Répertoire de D:\Strategy\dominions2\doc\CombatSim

Looks Ok..
So it's an alien/broken Java install ? Will reinstall then ..

That appears to be the case. I cannot think of any other possibility.

I would try running Scan Disk first, though.

Seems you hardcoded your path separator instead of using Java System.getProperty ("file.separator").

tsk.

Mac people, do this in terminal:

sed "s@Data\\@Data/@g" Data.class > Data.class.new; mv Data.class.new Data.class

Woah, I'll have to change that. Sorry...

I had no idea the path was specified (in Java) in a different way for different OSes.

Ouch! Neither did I. Who knew you could learn programming by playing games?

No problem. It's a great utility by the way. I'm looking forward to using it to optimize my first recruits. Since I can only play to level 34 while I wait for the rowboat to cross the atlantic with the packaged game.

Okay, v41 was uploaded. It correctly grabs file separators. Also, I changed the psuedorandom number generator from Math.Random to a free Java Mersenne Twister, which is supposed to be a much better random number generator, more suitable for Monte Carlo simulation (which this combat sim does).
