Loading images so that it works in JAR-Files and NetBeans

I've got a problem with the jar file that's supposed to run the game i'm
trying to create. It's basicaly a major issue with the loading of Images
so that it works in the Jar aswell as Netbeans' environment.
i'm currently using
imgIcon = new ImageIcon(Core.classLoader.getResource("Images/Boss1.png"));
img = imgIcon.getImage();
this works just fine 4 all my enemies the level background and the shots
my various object fire. But if I try to use it on my player class the JAR
file becomes unexecutablem, even thought it still works perfectly in
NetBeans. So did i screw up in the Player or somewhere else because the
Images seem to load with this particular code and only if it's also in the
player the jar is unusable.
Player class to be seen here(I think it's got to be a problem in here that
i overlooked over and over):
package Entity;
import Shots.PlayerShot;
import bullethellreloaded.Core;
import bullethellreloaded.Screen;
import java.awt.Image;
import java.awt.Rectangle;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
public class Player extends Entity{
public int x,y; // public used to make an easy mouse controll;
int xDirection, yDirection;
int health;
private Image img;
private ImageIcon imgIcon;
private Rectangle hitbox;
public static ArrayList shots;
public Player(){
x = 250;
y = 400;
shots = new ArrayList();
health = 5;
imgIcon = new ImageIcon(Core.classLoader.getResource("Images/spaceship
(Redshrike,Stephen Challener).png"));
img = imgIcon.getImage();
}
@Override
public void move(){
x += xDirection;
y += yDirection;
// Wallcollision detection, needs to be ajusted for the size of the
object.
if(x <= 0)
x = 0;
if(x >= Screen.getScreenWidth())
x = Screen.getScreenWidth();
if(y <= 0)
y = 0;
if(y >= Screen.getScreenHeight())
y = Screen.getScreenHeight();
}
public void setXDirection(int xdir){
xDirection = xdir;
}
public void setYDirection(int ydir){
yDirection = ydir;
}
@Override
public Image getImage(){
return img;
}
@Override
public ImageIcon getImageIcon(){
return imgIcon;
}
@Override
public int getX(){
return x;
}
@Override
public int getY(){
return y;
}
@Override
public Rectangle getHitbox(){
return hitbox;
}
public static ArrayList getShots(){
return shots;
}
public void fire(){
PlayerShot shot = new PlayerShot(getX(),
getY()-getImageIcon().getIconHeight()/2, 0, 1,
1,Core.classLoader.getResource("Images/PlayerShot.png"));
shots.add(shot);
}
@Override
public void removeHitbox(){
hitbox = null;
}
@Override
public Rectangle setHitbox(){
int width = getImageIcon().getIconWidth();
int height = getImageIcon().getIconHeight();
hitbox = new Rectangle(getX()+width/2-5, getY()+height/2-5, 1, 1);
return hitbox;
}
public void takeDamage(int dmg){
health -= dmg;
}
public int getHealth(){
return health;
}
drawn in my screen class which is an extended JFrame in the paintComponent
that's invoked by the paint(doublebuffering and stuff^^)
in the following code segment:
}else{
g.drawImage(testlevel.getImage(),0,0,this);
g.drawImage(player.getImage(),player.getX(),player.getY(),this);
// painting the Score
g.setColor(Color.white);
g.setFont(new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,14));
g.drawString("Score: "+ Score.getScore(), getScreenWidth()-100, 50);
// painting out the content of the ArrayLists shots, enemies,
enemyShots
try{
for (int i = 0; i < Player.shots.size(); i++){
PlayerShot s = (PlayerShot) Player.shots.get(i);
if (s.getDeleted() != true){
g.drawImage(s.getImage(), s.getX(), s.getY(), this);
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < Enemy.enemies.size(); i++){
Enemy e = (Enemy) Enemy.enemies.get(i);
if (e.getDestroied() != true){
g.drawImage(e.getImage(), e.getX(), e.getY(), this);
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < Enemy.enemyShots.size(); i++){
EnemyShot es = (EnemyShot) Enemy.enemyShots.get(i);
if (es.getDeleted() != true){
g.drawImage(es.getImage(), es.getX(), es.getY(), this);
}
}
}catch(Exception e){}
}
repaint();
}
I hope thats enough information, if that's not the case please let me know.
