Shank installation problem

  • 772

after several attempts I was not able to install Shank.I've download the bin and .deb (for 64bit architecture) files. The bin shows this message on launch: "No such file or directory". The Deb not installed correctly. If someone managed to find a solution or workaround to install this game I hope will help me too. Thanks for your time and support.

  1. I've found a solution: by installing the deb for 32 bit I realized I was missing some libraries (in addition to ia32-libs and libc6). I first solved this problem by giving this command: sudo apt-get install -f.

    Then I got another error: Message: SDL_GL_LoadLibrary Error: Failed loading libGL.so.1

    Obviously, these libraries were properly installed. Without going into details I had to link the libraries by hand. I realized then that could also an easier solution through Synaptic install the following packages: libgl1-mesa-glx:i386, libgl1-mesa-dri:i386.

    After that the next problem was the black screen while playing, which I solved by replacing the executable in /Shank/bin with this: http://treefort.icculus.org/smb/smb-linux-mesa-hotfix-test.tar.bz2.

    I hope it will be useful to someone. If you need more help or more details please feel free to contact me.
