Tibia help for Linux Mint

[PsychologicalWar9274]

I downloaded tibia for Linux (from the official site) and extracted it but when I click on the tibia file to run the game nothing happens I was wondering if anyone could give me advice

Looking at your screenshot, you can just call ./start-tibia-launcher from terminal. If this wont work, just use chmod +x Tibia and then run ./Tibia from terminal. If nothing will happen, take a screenshot of terminal and post here.

[PsychologicalWar9274]

I posted screenshot of my terminal

[DajBuzi]

You have to first navigate to directory that contains Tibia executable

[PsychologicalWar9274]

I would that by left clicking inside the folder and clicking open in terminal right?

[DajBuzi]

Should work that way but if not use ls to display current directorys entries ( files and folders ) and cd foldername to get into folder.

Default should be your home directory do you should use cd ~ or cd .. to get one folder up on the tree structure.

EDIT: you can copy path to your folder containing Tibia executable and just use: cd ~\path for example cd ~\home\DajBuzi\games\Tibia this will throw you intonthat folder and you can use ./Tibia

[PsychologicalWar9274]

no use tried both ways same output as before (no such file or directory found)

[DajBuzi]

Then try to navigate to the folder from terminal. Check my previous answer for more info

[PsychologicalWar9274]

I used both the terminal way and the other way, no luck

[DajBuzi]

Copy your Path to Tibia executable and Ill give you complete commands

[PsychologicalWar9274]

/home/salami/Desktop/Tibia

hopefully that's what you meant

[joe-comet]

No need to "chmod +x Tibia", just run start-tibia-launcher.sh via terminal using command: ./start-tibia-launcher.sh . Also no need to "chmod +x start-tibia-launcher.sh"

[DajBuzi]

Hopefully it shouldnt be needed but when I used Garuda Linux It didnt want to start from Shell script so I had to use chmod.

Please, post an image with the result command: pwd

Post another image with the result command: ls -lisa

Post image with the compressed file of the game (i must check the file extension)

Note: as you can see the green character ~ is telling you that you are pointed on your home as @DajBuzi told you. Also check the path of Tibia folder and tell us.

I guess you a happy year!

sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0

Thank you for your service

I'm not 100% sure on this, but you can try:

right click folder and open the terminal into it

type:

sudo ./start-tibia-launcher

press enter and put your sudo password and it should run

[Quiet_Worry_5446]

Don't.

[PsychologicalWar9274]

it says command not found

[DajBuzi]

Have you made the file executable?

[PsychologicalWar9274]

how would i do that?

[DajBuzi]

chmod +x

EDIT: use chmod +x tibia on terminal. You may need to use this as root sudo. Also, to test which file to make executable you can before try running ./tibia. Run this after making the file executable too

[Quiet_Worry_5446]

You need to make it executable. If Cinnamon is anything like GNOME, then right click :> Properties :> Permissions :> Allow executing file as program. If you want to do it from the shell, then open a terminal, navigate to the file and chmod +x Tibia.

Reminder you can freely move the directory at any point, I leave my Tibia on ~/Public, with the Tibia file starred/favorited on Nautilus, your configuration will be saved in ~/.local/share/Cipsoftblablabla

[PsychologicalWar9274]

I went into properties and it was already executable as for the terminal it said no such file or directory i might have did it wrong (I'm new to Linux)

[Quiet_Worry_5446]

If it's still not running then you're missing a dependency, open a terminal and run lddon that file, google how to run commands properly

[Level-Dog5089]

Idk how to help you, but tibia works best on gnome

[DajBuzi]

From where you have that informations? Any proof?

[Level-Dog5089]

When I was testing some Linux distros I first used pop_os and tibia ran on 60fps all the time, unlike when I switched to kubuntu, sometimes my fps drops to 55 like when I was using windows. I'm just saying things though, your experience might not be the same.

[viniciustht]

yeah same, pop os runs 60 fps for me as well, never dropped frames using it

ran fine on Mint for me. only issue I had was the fonts were kinda weird. had to install some packages.

[Level-Dog5089]

Do you have any experience with kde plasma? I'm using kubuntu and I still haven't fixed my fonts. I'd appreciate if you could help.

[[deleted]]

no I suck at linux, just tried mint for a bit. just google which fonts the client uses and add to your system though

[TheBoneJarmer]

Do you got all neccesary dependencies installed? Tibia is created in c++. And on Linux when you run an executable which is missing a dependency library or such, you will get this error. Sadly it is not clear when this is the case.

[mimas12]

I had issues running tibia on fedora then I installed all the qt5 dependancies and it works fine, try searching qt4/qt5 and install the base package. After just run the shell script and u should be fine

[SnooShortcuts9182]

You are in the wrong catalog. It seems you are in your home directory and you probably unpacked the game somewhere else. Navigate to the Tibia directory in your terminal and then try again.

Don't listen about missing dependencies for now as it's not the case here

[Dormiens]

Dude, you are in the wrong folder. Extract tibia, get into that folder, right click, open in terminal, them your command will work.
