Title: Launcher/Mod Tools dependencies?
Post by: daedra descent on December 13, 2013, 11:15:41 pm
So I've been trying to get Launcher/Mod Tools to work on Ubuntu (V10.04 LTS) forever now. I always get to the point where it gives me the option to choose my .prj file but then it gives me an error on startup for Radiant. Launcher just refuses to load altogether.
So my question is, does anyone know where can find what i need to make these programs work?

Nothing can be determined from an unhanded exception window that has no fault information. The tool was not written to be used in a linux environment, so it doesn't surprise me that it found something to crash over. The tools are hard enough to get working in Windows, I don't envision using them in Linux to be an easy/pleasant experience.

try to run it using the terminal. it should be like this when you run any kind of software from terminal, it'll most likely show you the cause of error. just copy the error message on terminal and search it through the web, i'm sure you'll find a solution to this.

alright, but whats the directory command for getting to the bin folder? I've tried this:
but it gives me a bad token for (86x).

oh god i didn't know that. i still think you should type the directory's name in quotes but there's one thing i forgot to mention. linux is case sensitive when it comes to directories and files. so make sure you typed every letter in the correct form.

eyeyey.
Try to use \ as a space: call\ of\ duty\ world\ at\ war
Although I would recommend using no spaces in the pathes at all. - big mistake there. ( it seems also you forget that linux is case sensitive )
You can also cd and tab until you reach your destination. Use ls for the all available files / directories.
Oh and you can't cd to a file. cd is for directories.
Next time google might help aswell.
Btw what do you try to accomplish?

TBH, i'm not even sure. All i really need is what the program needs to run (dependencies). I've gotten Radiant to work before, i'm just now sure how i did it.
