Hey Guys, brand new on gaming on Linux/Ubuntu.

I installed Sauerbraten on an ubuntu 64 8.04.

No matter what server I jump on to, I get massive amounts of \"could not load texture...\" and the game is completely unplayable.

What am I missing?

Screenshots are looking nice though, hope to be up and running soon..

you're not using the version distributed in either the universe or multiverse (I forgot which, and I'm too lazy to check :P) repos are you?

Thanx for responding,

I first installed the version from the ubuntu 8.04 repo's. Couldnt play online as all servers ran a different (later) version. I then picked up the 0.0.20080620-0 version from getdeb.net.

Compiling the latest from this site didn't work either, couldn't compile it without errors.

When I restore my cookie for my original account I can always see the post form but posting doesn\'t do anything other than take me back to the page. So I lost my reply to you. [Second attempt by just changing the name and e-mail didn\'t work either...good thing I copied the response. Let\'s see if it works now that I\'ve cleared my cookies.]

The reason for the errors compiling the \"true\" version from this site is because you\'re missing the development versions of the libraries. For example, you need not just sdl_image1.2 but sdl_image1.2-dev or something like that. I just check the compile errors and try to figure out what package I need from that.

I\'m guessing you have 64-bit Linux? 32-bit binaries are provided. I\'ve compiled 64-bit binaries fine, so just sort out those missing libraries and it will work.

Ok, I see...

It would be... practical, if this site would just link to any new libraries in the download section if any new ones are needed whenever a new sauerkraten-version is released.

Thanx anyways.
