[Linux]Cannot open file "fsgame.ltx" Check your working folder about xray-16 HOT 14 OPEN

I have the same problem, I managed to run Clear Sky version by creating a link to fsgame.ltx and the gamedata folder from /usr/share/openxray as the binary created a broken link to "usr/share"/openxray/fsgame and the other files by adding the quote marks to the path.

Anyways, when trying to run the game or the options it crashed again, is not finding some files, Iĺl try to work out what is wrong and update the post.

Run the game from game root, not from binaries folder.

The error disappeared but neither game started.

Can you look at the log, maybe there's something useful?

What do you mean? Can you tell me exactly what to do?

Where can I find that log?
If I launch it from the terminal, this is what I get:

I thought the game was necessary only for compiling, since I didn't scrolled down when downloading the precompiled build.
It is a mod, and it requires the original game. It isn't standalone yet.

The original game is very much required since for legal reasons we can't ship the original gamedata, we only provide an updated engine + our own gamedata for shaders etc. Also strictly speaking you can compile OpenXRay without the original game you just can't play it.

I have the original game files, I have copied them per instructions where these files are needed.

I have the same problem when running engine on Linux. I am using the version dated January 5, 2024.
Previously, I used the version dated October 31, 2023, everything works fine there.

Windows 10, Steam-версия Чистого Неба, ловлю такую же ошибку, fsgame.ltx в корне игры.

@carhub, а ты как запускаешь?

@carhub, а ты как запускаешь?

Сначала пытался с папки bin, потом увидел, что надо запустить с корня игры, но не понял как.

from xray-16.

-_- запускай через ярлык, в котором рабочей папкой является корень игры. Это всегда и везде было на данном движке.

As far as I understand, this behavior started from this 64778f1 commit.

Also, I noticed that the Luabind library is now built as static (.a) rather than dynamic (.so).
