Quoting: NaughtyDeveloperDo the devs intend to bring the game to GOG?

Currently not, they rely on the Steam API for their multiplayer.

Yep, multiplayer works then too.

Ye, asshole because I quit, but I need to get to bed now ;-).

Quoting: elistomodify the run.sh to
LD_PRELOAD= LD_LIBRARY_PATH=linux linux/hl sdlboot.dat
than run
linux/run.sh

Holy shit. That makes even launching of steam possible. Now I'd be interested which damn library is fucking it up.
Good find, thanks! But that would .. basically mean that the delivered libs by the developer have issues...

or not sure if MP really works, but it looks like it in the lobby.

How about a lil' fight Liam? Let's give it a test run?

Yeah, a bit of a launch-mess there. But the game is great. I don't recommend it to the average user for the obvious reason of "not just launching of steam", but it's damn fun to play.

I hope the devs can fix that, shouldn't be too hard.

But there is another issue I'm more worried about. It's launching from steam with a segfault in sdl. That has nothing to do with the other issues. I'll be looking into that, hopefully the developer too, I personally didn't see anything being loaded which could cause that (I didn't see any steam native libs being accessed, and it loaded the sdl which the game delivered), but never say it can't be.

Till now I find the game (only campaign, didn't get it running multiplayer/steam yet) very entertaining. I'd say depending on your budget, it's certainly worth a buy.

I remember when we celebrated every game release on Linux. We've got a a bit critical about it.

For early access: The early access discount in my eyes is for people to test the game early on and give feedback about gameplay, balancing, dynamics, besides being beta-testers on a variety of hardware, saving or potentially saving quite some QA. They're risk investors, so they get a discount and can help shape the product. For me, that's a fair deal. I don't want it, so I pay a few bucks more. That's fine too I think.

Yeah, quite not there

Sad it does not work in steam directly yet, maybe the developer can do something about it. Meanwhile I play campaign and after that I'll try to fix it up with lsi if the developer didn't act.

Got it. The error message is misleading.

It requires libbsd to run. I didn't have that one installed. Quite uncommon to require that on linux systems :p. They should have shipped it.

<happy now>

Quoting: shotgun14Ahai, in terminal:
cd into Northgard directory and run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=linux ./linux/hl sdlboot.dat
And it runs :)

Edit: By running it this way steam wont connect with the game and multiplayer wont work

Not for me ..

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=linux ./linux/hl sdlboot.dat
src/module.c(256) : FATAL ERROR : Failed to load library sdl.hdll

And it does not seem to be a pathing issue but something else... because strace shows clearly it finds the file

Hmh...

Failed to load library sdl.hdll

but it's obviously there
schurl@ggpc ~/.steam/steam $ find . -name sdl.hdll
./steamapps/common/Northgard/linux/sdl.hdll
./steamapps/common/Northgard/linux/hl-1.5.0-linux-static/sdl.hdll
./steamapps/common/Northgard/sdl.hdll

What I find is the startscript, which looks fine to me:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=linux linux/hl sdlboot.dat

I've tried it running it from the linux folder too, still no success.

But it seems hl does not find the hdll files still. Anyone ideas where hl uses to "search" for it's hdlls? (It's hl/jit 1.5.0). Setting HAXE_LIBRARY_PATH or HAXE_STD_PATH didn't help.

I've no experience with Haxe/hl at all...

But some DLCs are pretty fun :-).

It's a game well deserved, played that one for hours, built wonderful cities. Though, I really suck at properly controlling traffic.
