Can't launch VSMC on Linux

[JAGIELSKI]

This is what I get when I try to:

JAGIELSKI@localhost:~/mojeprogramy/vsmodelcreator_linux-x64_18Sep2024> java vsmodelcreator.jar
Error: Could not find or load main class vsmodelcreator.jar
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: vsmodelcreator.jar

I'm on OpenSuse Tumbleweed.

//edit: More info:

JAGIELSKI@localhost:~> java --version
openjdk 21.0.5 2024-10-15
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 21.0.5+11-suse-1.1-x8664)

almost certainly because you're missing the -jar flag:

java -jar vsmodelcreator.jar

java -jar vsmodelcreator.jar
sty 02, 2025 10:21:52 PM java.util.prefs.FileSystemPreferences$1 run
INFO: Created user preferences directory.
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-lookup.c: 106: check_match: Assertion `version->filename == NULL || ! _dl_name_match_p (version->filename, map)' failed!

Still not running, but now there's a different error. Completely forgot about the -jar parameter though. Been a while since I had to load Java programs from command line.

I use the Flatpak version, Or if you need to play 1.20 you will need a program called Heroic or Lutris to get it running through the .exe files

VSMC still requires Java 8 to run. You will need to install it, then, if you don't want to have such ancient version set as your main one, you can specify which binary to use when launching VSMC from terminal. For example, I have OpenJDK version installed and I'm launching VSMC like this:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/bin/java -jar vsmodelcreator.jar
