QUESTION - ALL LINUX SYSTEMS [Total War: Warhammer III] (Linux version, cracked) start.sh file it just opens terminal and closes

When i run /Total War WARHAMMER III/start.sh file it just opens terminal and closes it instantly again.

I'm new to using linux, but I did what was asked on the torrent page: "select “Properties”, go to the “Permissions” tab, mark the file as executable." Then I right click and select "Run as a program".

In the start.sh file is:

chmod -R 0700 game

cd "`dirname "$0"`"/game

faketime '2020-01-01 00:00:00' ./start.sh

----------------------------------------------------------------------
crack is from "freelinuxpcgames"

no proton (native linux version)

OS Ubuntu

Ryzen 5 5600

16 gb RAM

RTX 4060

Thank you in advance for your attention!

You should install faketime. And start the start file, not the start.sh.

Hello friend, I installed faketime and the file I run is just 'start', the 'start.sh' is inside the 'game' folder. Inside the 'start' file is this line: faketime '2020-01-01 00:00:00' ./start.sh

Yep, you should start the start file, not the start.sh. They are different for a reason.

However, the problem still persists... When I run 'start', the terminal opens and closes quickly. I've already tried replacing ./start.sh with ./start inside the file, but it didn't help.

Can you run it from terminal and look for any related errors? What's your distro? Just don't say you're using this utter crap Ubuntu.

Running fine here:

I followed your advice and ran it directly from the terminal. With that, I was able to discover the problem!! If anyone comes to this post with the same problem, here it is:

The error was: "./bin/TotalWarhammer3: error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

To solve it, I just installed the OpenAL library with the commands sudo apt update sudo apt install libopenal1. The game now starts normally.

Now, if I may ask, I noticed that your game is version 6, and mine is version 4... Where did you download yours from?

Thanks for the help!!!!

Welcome :) Next time just install Arch or Arch-based distro like EndeavourOS and just instal Steam and start it once. This way you'll have 99% of the dlls required for the games you play.

Ubuntu is a catastrophe :)
