Closed Game won't open!

I've already told you. This is not a good idea for a solution. And if you're on Linux, why in the bloody fuck are you not using the Linux binaries.

 

Executed and it seems that nothing has happened...

 

Did it create a starbound.log? You might have to check the directory you ran it from and the root starbound\ directory.

 

No, there's just the starbound_server.log.

 

The server says it started success fully.

What does the client report ?

 

I start the launch_starbound.sh and nothing happens. No new files are created or anything,

 

yea i know you told me but for some reason this way worked for me

 

Any suggestions?

 

After attempting to run the .sh file through the console, this is what I got.

epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~$ sh launch_starbound.sh
sh: 0: Can't open launch_starbound.sh

 

Is there even a launch_starbound.sh file in your home directory?

 

Woops! I forgot to mention that I ran the command below before those other two. And yes, that is where my launch_starbound.sh file resides.

epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~$ .steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32
bash: .steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32: Is a directory

 

You need to actually change to the directory. I haven't touched linux in a while, but I believe you want the "cd" command.

 

Here's what I've done. I don't think I did it right...

epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~$ cd .steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32
epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~/.steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32$ sh launch_starbound.sh
./starbound: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

 

It's a working directory issue.

cd ..
sh ./linux32/launch_starbound.sh

 

I've fixed it now. Here's what happened:

epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~$ cd .steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32
epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~/.steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32$ sh ./linux32/launch_starbound.sh
sh: 0: Can't open ./linux32/launch_starbound.sh
epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~/.steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Starbound/linux32$

 

Sigh.

You didn't perform "cd ..".

 

Sorry. As you can tell, I'm quite new to Linux. Perhaps you could show me what it should(roughly) look like?

 

Code:

cd ..
sh ./linux32/launch_starbound.sh

Just execute these two commands

 

I get the same issue when trying to launch the linu2 version. I'm guessing Starbound doesn't provide it's own copy of libSDL-1.2? My linux64 version definitely seems to be using the locally installed libSDL.

Try installing the SDL libs from the repositories. In Ubuntu, it should be the package called libsdl1.2debian.

 

Here we go:

epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:~$ cd ..
epik@Victor-Satellite-L755:/home$ sh ./linux32/launch_starbound.sh
sh: 0: Can't open ./linux32/launch_starbound.sh
