Unable to run the game (Linux).

Post by Giorgos »

Hi! :D

I was unable to run the game on Mint 17.3 x64 KDE.
Trying to run the game, returns the error:
"./ZeldaROTH_US: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_gfx.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" (although libSDL is installed).

Obviously the binary is 32bit and can't run on an x64 system (although the compatibility layer ia32 is installed). :o

Also I couldn't properly run it on Wine.

OK! It is a known problem, that on latest x64 systems, ia32 is broken.
Also latest Wine versions are problematic for no high definitions games.
Games who lower the screen resolution, can't be played on Wine. :cry:

- Any workarounds for this specific problem?
- Any thoughts for releasing an x64 version?

Also I downloaded the source, but I'm not a C++ expert!
Any guidance on compiling it?

TIA! :D

PS. Seems to be running perfectly on Win 10 x64.
I grow old ever learning many things. Solon.
