Great work.

I installed the libs
$ sudo apt install libsdl2-2.0:i386 libsdl2-ttf-2.0:i386 libsdl2-mixer-2.0:i386

Installed steam
$ sudo apt install steam

And downloaded your prebuild file:
devilutionx

I also bought a copy of GOG Diablo 1 Which I had to install on Windows, then copied the diablo directory onto my Linux machine.

Copy devilutionx file to the diablo directory and run.
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/.steam/bin32/ ./devilutionx 👍

This is a known sdl2 bug in Ubuntu 18.04

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libsdl2/+bug/1775067

Another workaround is to run the game like this:

DBUS_FATAL_WARNINGS=0 ./devilutionx

Oh, I got it.
libsdl2-ttf-2.0:i386 and libsdl2-mixer-2.0:i386 are not buggy, and installing through apt is OK.

After installing them, the game runs normally, thanks!

[AJenbo]

Thanks.

Good point about having to install the GoG version in Windows. I will ask my friend if he can document how he extracted the files from the GoG setup file.

Stick around, the next release should be fairly exciting 😈

Hi,

After installing steam, there is only libSDL2-2.0.so.0 in ~/.steam/bin32.
libSDL2_ttf-2.0.so.0 and libSDL2_mixer-2.0.so.0 are still not found.

Is there any idea how to get the missing libraries?
Thanks.

[AJenbo]

@DCsunset did you try installing them threw normal means?
sudo apt install libsdl2-ttf-2.0:i386 libsdl2-mixer-2.0:i386

[AJenbo]

@DCsunset thanks for confirming the solution.

[AJenbo]

Thanks that's a simpler solution.

Closing this as we now support native 64bit builds in stead.
