I installed the game from these packages: hedgewars-data_0.9.14.1-1_all.deb and hedgewars_0.9.14.1-1_amd64.deb. When you start the game can not start the match. The screen will flash either, and I just returned to the menu or get an error message similar to the picture. Could someone advise me how to correct the problem? Thank.

I suppose, although I can't think of what could be causing it.

I suspect a bad package - try building your own.

For copy and paste build instructions.

To build 0.9.14.1 add:

hg update 0.9.14.1

just before the cmake line.

BTW, in the linked issue the person said installing off of playdeb worked for them.

I proceeded according to the instructions and enter

Quote:

cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-g" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$HOME/games" -DDATA_INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/games" -DWITH_SERVER=0

I get this error terminal

That would be the:
liblua5.1-dev

Part of the sudo apt-get install

Either you didn't install it or your distro is missing this for some reason...

sudo apt-get install fpc

You forgot to install pascal compiler.

Press any key to continue, or any other key to cancel.

I'm questioning whether he copied and pasted the entire sudo apt-get line or just typed what he saw without scrolling Smile

He's the only person I've linked to that post who has ever had problems w/ this btw. Wink Smiley

Reason for the package error.

This suggests the bug can be fixed by fixing the PNGs.

Let me know if you want me to whip up a one-liner to correct the files in your local install.

Also, I don't think we've gotten any complaints from people using PlayDeb - you might want to use that repository instead.
