The Long Dark has a big survival mode update in preparation for overhauling the story mode

Played for a couple of hours tonight. The game and sound works but do still get errors in /tmp/dumps/...stdout.txt
along the lines of
AK Error: Plug-in not registered: 8912899
AK Error: Could not allocate effect: 8912899

I think some of the sound banks are missing in
~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/TheLongDark/tld_Data/StreamingAssets/Audio/GeneratedSoundBanks/Linux/

I am guessing this would refer to 8912899.wem that isnt there. Verified game files in steam and all okay. So maybe these were obsolete sounds or effects.

The only other thing I can think of then is to try the 32bit version of the game, the executable is in the same directory in the steam version. Hopefully the same for you. I hope it works because it is a great game. I have lost far too many hours in it. Currently it is running well for me except for an annoying graphical glitch sometimes when moving the camera.

@shmerl try these launch options
LD_PRELOAD=~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSDL2-2.0.so.0 %command%

and libsdl2 ... :)

Great News! I have been looking forward to this, bought it sometime ago as they promised to support us. So glad they are following through.
