Khazaar 9 years ago I installed Zero-K lobby on Win7 without any problem. Now I want to install it on my Linux Mint 17.1 (Ubuntu based) laptop, everything gets fine until I try to join a game. It start downloading engine 98.0.1 and gets stuck at 12.1 Mb. I restarted computer, copied the 98.0.1-451-g0804ae1 directory from my Win install, but yet it starts downloading over and over again, and always gets stuck at the same point. Any idea of a probable cause/solution on this issue ? +1 / -0
aeonios 9 years ago Hmm, sometimes the file server is dumb like that, but the game is currently using a more bleeding-edge dev version of the engine. If you create a new game in multiplayer you should pick that up automatically. +0 / -0
ehje 9 years ago (edited 9 years ago) try installing the package "p7zip-full". Solved it for me in Ubuntu 14.04 +3 / -0
Khazaar 9 years ago (edited 9 years ago) Thanks ! I grabed the package from the adress in the log and installed it manually, it works fine now. I had to struggle a little further with the "white texture" bug but found the workaround in the forum. Time to play ! I will try to install the p7zip-full package for automatic install in the future. +0 / -0
