SDLDrv not found

[devilsclaw]

So by default on my system witch is void linux after the install and running from the .desktop file or going to

cd ~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/System
./UT2004

Can't find file for package 'SDLDrv'

History: UObject::SafeLoadError <- UObject::StaticLoadClass <- UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine

Exiting due to error

The easy fix it to do

LD_PRELOAD=./SDLDrv.so ./UT2004

I edited the .desktop file to have
in the environment section
LD_PRELOAD=~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/System/UT2004/SDLDrv.so

and then ran it from the .desktop file and it worked

I'll need to spin up a Void Linux VM to test, but that shouldn't be required.

Without the added variable, what's the output of ldd ~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UT2004/System/UT2004?

I am experiencing this same error on a fresh install of Kubuntu with a fresh install of ut2004 via the install script. The LD_PRELOAD trick works for me as well.

I experienced a similar pattern of error with unreal gold, but complaining about PhysXPhysics.

./unreal-bin-amd64 
WARNING: Not using preference directory

Exiting due to error

Adding 'LD_PRELOAD=~/.local/share/OldUnreal/UnrealGold/System64/PhysXPhysics.so' to the desktop file's environment variables resolves this as well.

Whatever is causing this appears to also prevent the ut99 installer from finishing. It errors when reaching the unpack maps step.

I tried running the decompress command manually, and it resulted in this error message:

./ucc-bin-amd64 decompress "../Maps/AS-Frigate.unr.uz"

Commandlet decompress not found

According to https://www.oldunreal.com/wiki/index.php?title=Commandlet#Decompress decompress comes from IpDrv.so, I added an LD_PRELOAD for that library and the extract completed:

I modified the install script to add the LD_PRELOAD, and it was able to complete the installation.

When trying to run ut99, I predictably got another library related error that prevented it from launching.

Exiting due to error

Adding an LD_PRELOAD for SDLDrv.so worked as in UnrealGold.
