Linux missing libraries

Post by TheIronKnuckle »

Hi there,

Firstly, is there a simple ".zip" version of the latest 227 that I can use? This seems to be available for the latest OU UT linux patch and is wayyyy convenient. Having to do VM and WINE acrobatics to get the latest 227 working is a hassle

Secondly, when I try to launch unreal, I get the following:

Code: Select all

theironknuckle@Lola:/mnt/6239499a-63f8-4f10-b8cb-181ce82f1185/Unreal/Unreal/System$ ./UnrealXLinux.bin
./UnrealXLinux.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libXxf86dga.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
and

Code: Select all

theironknuckle@Lola:/mnt/6239499a-63f8-4f10-b8cb-181ce82f1185/Unreal/Unreal/System$ ./UnrealLinux.bin
./UnrealLinux.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I've done some googling but not sure how to troubleshoot this.

I'm on linux mint 20

install the packages that contain libXxf86dga.so.1, libSDL-1.2.so.0 with your package manager.

I'm running linux mint, and even after googling I'm unclear what exactly I need to install.

Also,

Edit:

Managed to solve the error with the following:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libxxf86dga1:i386
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian:i386
However now it fails to launch with:

The log looks more or less the same with both UnrealLinux.bin and UnrealXLinux.bin

What is this "ALAudio" that I'm missing?

I downloaded these libs and extracted to my system folder and now the game boots

UnrealXLinux doesn't seem to have music however.
