ubuntu's vertion won't start

Post by gwlegion »

hi .

fist thing, i'm french, so excuse some lack of language and try to be easy when you try to explain something. Thanks you

I'm an ubuntu user, and after installing unvanquished, it won't start with this error code :

cp: cannot stat /home/matt/.Unvanquished/pubkey': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat
/home/matt/.Unvanquished/main/guid': No such file or directory
/usr/games/unvanquished: invalid URI: %u

someone can help me ?

Hello because you are French and my too, I think this is more easy if I speak french.

Salut, donc tout d'abord avec quoi a tu installé le jeux ?
Si c'est avec un paquet (playdeb ?) refait l'installation avec le script .sh

Une fois que c'est fait (ou si c'est déjà fait), va dans le dossier d'installation et lance le script unvanquished
(par défaut si tu a lancer l'installateur en mode normal c'est dans ton home,
sinon si tu l'a lancer en root c'est dans /opt)

tu peut éventuellement faire un script shell qui te fera un raccourcie, ou tu peut aussi créé un lanceur avec je ne sais plus quel logiciel

en éspérant t'avoir aidée ;)

I don't speak french, but I do run Unvanquished on Ubuntu. Which version are you running? I run 12.10 beta 64bit. I installed it from the sourceforge installer, the launchers it placed on my desktop don't work, but when I run daemon from the unvanquished directory it runs fine. Does running daemon produce your errors or the launchers?

merci a tout le deux.

Effectivement, j'ai installé le jeu en passant par playdeb ...

Comment je fais pour l'installer via le script d'install ??? que dois je telecharger ???

Merci d'avance

(Google translate)
thank you to all the two.

Indeed, I installed the game through Playdeb ...

How do I install via the install script??? What should I download???

Thank you in advance

il faut que tu aille dans le bouton download de la page d'acceuil (pas le logo ubuntu qu iest en dessous) ( http://unvanquished.net )

tu désinstalle le paquet playdeb "sudo apt-get remove unvanquished" dans un terminal (afin de ne pas avoir de conflit ou de lanceur)

puis tu lance le script (soit en double cliquant, soit en invite de commande avec "sudo ./nom_du_script" ce qui te permet d'installer dans n'importe quel répertoire)
et le scrip va te crée 2 lanceur sur ton bureau (utilise le vanilla si ton ordinateur est vieux)

note : vérifie peut être si ta carte est compatible openGL3
si la réponse est non, essaye avec le vanilla render

In your unvanquished.desktop file (Mine is at /usr/share/applications/unvanquished.desktop) try changing the %u into uppercase %U. My file looks like this:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Unvanquished
Comment=First-person shooter game - aliens vs humans
Icon=unvanquished
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Exec=/usr/bin/unvanquished %U
Categories=Game;ActionGame;StrategyGame;
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/unv

Note that your binary path is probably /usr/games/unvanquished instead of /usr/bin/unvanquished!
If it still doesn't work, just remove the %U and be aware that unv:// links (that let you connect to an unvanquished server via a webbrowser) won't work anymore.

Yes but if he have installed with playdeb he have an old version of the game (the 0.7) so it is best if he reinstall the new version after have remove the playdeb version

ok ... reinstallé avec le script .run , mais maintenant, quand je le lance, il tourne dans le vide ...

Pour la carte video, j'ai 540M (pour mobile ... ) donc je pense que l'openGL3 passera

No. %u is for a single URI; %U is for many URIs.

Debian and Ubuntu packages (squeeze, wheezy, sid; 12.04, 12.10, 13.04) may work on derivatives

OFFEND! … no, that's not right… ATTACK!
