Game does not start on FreeBSD

Post by welkin »

Hello

I installed Globulation 2 on my FreeBSD 7.0 box. Installation went fine. But I cannot start the game.
When I execute Glob 2 i get this error message:
readlink() error: No such file or directory
Settings::load("preferences.txt") : error, can't open file.
Fatal error : while loading "data/texts.list.txt"
Assertion failed: (false), function load, file src/GlobalContainer.cpp, line 436.
Abort trap: 6 (core dumped)

Any suggestions?

It looks like it cant find the data directory. Globulation 2 needs more information show show where its looking and where it installed. Until then, try compiling but dont install, and see if the src/glob2 binary runs ok.
