./UnrealLinux.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object

[gummyguy]

I've copied Unreal w/ 227h patch to my home folder. Im running Debain Sqeeuze. When trying to run unreal (./UnrealLinux.bin right?) I get this error:
./UnrealLinux.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I've tried different packages but none worked. Could someone help me out?

+edit
its the amd64 version (so 64 bit)

+edit2
I got it already, i needed the ia32-libs package.

But now when I run it the screen goes black and after a second it exits itself again giving this message:

Code: Select all

Processors / Cores 2
Forcing CPU affinity disabled.


History: 

Exiting due to error

Try ./UnrealLinux.bin -log

This way you can see why it crashes. UnrealLinux.bin.log may also help you.

Hmm i havent found anything usefull there, but im able to run it with the -nosound option.
But in the multiplayer menu (with the gold borders) the mouse isn't working. In-game the mouse does work.
Is there another menu which i can use maybe?
Also, in the log file it claims to have found a joystick.. Which i dont have :p Maybe this is the problem.

You need OpenAL 32-bit and freealut-32bit for the audio engine. Also read this:
http://www.oldunreal.com/wiki/index.php?title=Oldunreal_227_Linux_FAQ

What console are you using in Unreal? Check your Unreal.ini or do a "cat Unreal.ini | grep Console".

[gummyguy]

There is no freealut package for debian :/ But several (like 30) hits on OpenAL.

I've tried all consoles. And the mouse doesn't work in each of them.
UBrowser.UBrowserConsole, UMenu.UnrealConsole, Engine.Console (which actually doesnt use a mouse, but is there a way to join server with this without having to know the ip adress?) and with UPak.UPakConsole it crashed on start up.

I've followed the faq the first time, but the packages dont match with the debian packages.

For audio i tried FOM, but it stopped after a while saying: FMOD couldn't set 100 buffer size!

And i got kicked twice and now banned for a map at HyperCoop ! :/ LOL

In that case search for any 'alut'. If you can't find it, then go to your Help folder, find "conveniencelibs.tar" and take alut from there.

In your INI, do you have "grab mouse" enabled? You can try toggling that, and I believe there are two settings for that there.

[Smirftsch]

there is in Section:

[SDLDrv.SDLClient]
CaptureMouse=True
IgnoreUngrabbedMouse=True

depending if you want to run it usually windowed or fullscreen you have to toggle these.

Also as GreatEmerald said, all maybe additional needed libs are in the convenience package in the help folder

Also be sure to check the FAQ for more details, you may have to switch between ALSA and OSS to make it work on your distro.

I did a quick try but it didnt work out. I'll try some more when i come back from my vacation, you'll here from me when its working perfectly.
