General Discussion / Re: How did you discover UnReal World? -- 10 choice poll

« on: November 19, 2018, 12:03:36 AM »

I was querying the Arch Linux package manager for urw-fonts to install (https://ctan.org/pkg/urw) when one of the search results descibed itself as "UnReal World is a unique low-fantasy roguelike game set in the far north during the late Iron-Age". I installed the game instead of the fonts, without really knowing what to expect, and immediately did a straight 8-hour run in my first ever gameplay... :-D

This was 3.32 in August 2016.

Yes, you're right. I was afraid it would be one of the libraries urw is using, indeed.

Setting AUDIO to NO in urw_ini.txt does the trick for now.

Thanks a lot!

Not bugs / Segmentation fault

« on: October 07, 2017, 11:12:50 AM »

Hi,

I have played quite a lot in the past, but it has been a couple of months since I last found some time for it. This morning, I fired up the game, but didn't get far: Segmenation Fault (I'm playing on Arch Linux). Hm, strange, it was still the same installation as before.

I went to download the latest version from the website, but alas, both the Arch packaged version (64bit) and the tar.gz gave me binaries that segfaulted at the same point. From the GUI, it looks like the segfault happens at "Loading audio: wind", and a strace tells me the last thing happening is openat(AT_FDCWD, "GAME.NFO", O_RDONLY)  = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) (GAME.NFO doest exist however, at /usr/share/urw3/GAME.NFO symlinked to ~/.config/urw3-Linux/GAME.NFO).

Sooo.... I'm really yearning to continue the adventure, but am stuck, I'm afraid.

I'm a bit lost for what to do next, but I'd be happy to try your suggestions.

Thanks!
