Accessing files on macOS

Hi, in the scenario Atlas the wizard there are some files accessed, e.g. a spritesheet, via: 
SpriteSheet playerSheet = new SpriteSheet(".\\res\\atlas\\playersprite.png", 5, 8, 32, 48);
When I run this on macOS it does not work (error: javax.imageio.IIOException: Can't read input file!). I tried things like 
/res/atlas/…
but this did not work. How do I have to call the paths on macOS?

The backslash is Windows-only so it won't work on Mac, you're right. I would have thought that "./res/atlas/..." should be the equivalent (note the leading dot).

Yes, thanks, this seems to be working! (Although I have still problems getting the scenario to run, probably this one makes problems: 
            mapTokens[i] = Utils.loadFileAsString(layerPaths[i]).split("\\s");
… but this is another topic …)
