+ I recently bought Northgard, because the store page says that\r
+ it supports Linux, I downloaded it, tried to launch it, and it\r
+ didn't work. Does anyone know what needs to be done to get it\r
+ to work?\r
+ \r
+ I tried running the run.sh file from the CLI, but that did not\r
+ work. The output it gives me is ./run.sh: line 1: ./linux/hl:\r
+ No such file or directory\r
+ \r
+ ./run.sh: line 2: ./linux/hl: No such file or directory\r
+ \r
+ So, I'm not sure what to do at this point, I'd like to keep\r
+ it, as I got it on sale, but if it doesn't work, I guess I'll\r
+ have to refund it.\r
+ \r
+ EDIT: There was a patch, it seems to be good now. I didn't do\r
+ anything to fix it.\r
+\r
+\r
+ ** liamdawe\r
+ It was fixed in another patch.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ Good to know!\r

+ ** OnceInATre0n\r
+ I can only suggest the classic things to try, but maybe they'll\r
+ help:\r
+ \r
+ Try validating game files\r
+ \r
+ Try running steam in a terminal and see what gets printed out\r
+ when you try running the game. Maybe it'll give you a hint.\r
+ \r
+ Try rebooting, especially if you haven't rebooted since you did\r
+ a system update.\r
+ Maybe also check the game's Steam discussion forums, chances are\r
+ someone else is having the same issue.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ I've already done all the other things. Just checked the\r
+ community page... A LOT of people are having the same issue.\r
+ So, I guess it'll probably get fixed.\r
+\r
+\r
+ ** arijitlive\r
+ Wait, I followed this game for awhile before removing that from\r
+ my wishlist. That was long time back in windows-time. I didn't\r
+ know it's available in Linux. Thanks for the nudge.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ Heh, no problem! Hopefully this issue gets fixed soon.\r
+\r
+\r
+ ** Shished\r
+ Does this file presents there? If yes, make it executable.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ I'm not sure I totally understand your suggestion.\r
+\r
+ ** Shished\r
+ Open game folder and check if linux/hl file exists. If it\r
+ exists, make it executable (right click, properties,\r
+ permissions)\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ AH! Thanks! I'll definitely try that when I get a\r
+ chance.\r
+ Edit: They do exist, and they are executable.\r

+ If you paid for it then you're entitled to tech support. Contact\r
+ the creator?\r
+ I can tell you that it works great for me in Ubuntu 18.04 with\r
+ Padoka PPA. You didn't describe your setup so it's hard to help\r
+ you.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ That's fair. My drivers are all up to date, just about every\r
+ other game works, and I'm on kubuntu 18.10\r
+\r
+ ** Nurgus\r
+ Kubuntu 18.10 isn't released yet so still a beta. Are you\r
+ using nvidia or amd hardware?\r
+ I can tell you that Northard works great in Ubuntu 18.04\r
+ and Mesa 18.1.\r
+ Are you able to try it in anything resembling that?\r
+ I do urge you to contact the official tech support.\r
+ They'll know better than anyone what logs the game can\r
+ kick out.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ Yeah, I'll talk to them later today. I'm currently at\r
+ work.\r
+ And I'm. On nvidia, most recent drivers, and I actually\r
+ did try it on 18.04 before. Not joy then either.\r
+\r
+ ** Nurgus\r
+ Ok. I can't advise you on Nvidia related stuff. Good\r
+ luck. It's a nice game. :)\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ Yeah, I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually.\r

+ ** bitstoppa\r
+ You should try it from the Northgard folder instead from the\r
+ linux folder and run it with './linux/run.sh'.\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ I think I tried that.\r
+\r
+\r
+ ** headless_cyborg\r
+ Works great for me on Arch Linux. What's your distribution,\r
+ drivers, hardware?\r
+\r
+ ** T0RB1T\r
+ Kubuntu, Nvidia gtx 1070, drivers are 396.54, intel 4790k.\r
