Title: Not starting under OpenSuse Leap 42.2
Post by: blesst on May 12, 2017, 05:04:05 pm

Hi,

I installed xcom on my OpenSuse Leap 42.2 and the 1klick installation worked out fine and also when I tried it with Yast the installation was not a problem. But when Itrie to start that game it crashes down.
When I use the terminal without sudo it shows "error geodata/palettes.dat not found"
and when i trie to start as sudo I will get just a black screen and the whole system breaks down.

Can somebody help me?

Did you copy the original datafiles as described on: installation instructions on https://ufopaedia.org (https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Installing_(OpenXcom)).

Those files are required in order fr the game to run
