When i try to launch the game from steam nothing happens.
For me to be able to launch from CLI I have to create a file called steam_appid.txt with the content 1084020 in the game folder.

But even then i can't launch the game from steam, I have to launch it from CLI.

I'm on arch Linux, on the latest version of steam.

I described the problem here too:

How to run the game? :: TheoTown General Discussions

The game does't start, I have java-17-openjdk and java-8-openjdk installed and see that there is an version of the JRE that comes with the game. I'm on Linux, and there is no error message, or crash logs.

Since i can launch the game from CLI, this is not a big issue, I can wait for a fix.

Closing steam and opening it through the command line should show the game launch logs and why it does not run into the standard error of the console.

Here is the console log

📎 message.txt

#

there is a java exception at the end

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk/lib/libnio.so: /usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk/lib/libnio.so: undefined symbol: reuseport_available

#

Ah

#

It's environment related

#

Game cannot find certain libraries

#

I had this issue myself

#

fixed it by specifying the java library path

#

~/.profile
# Fix Java was broken
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/jvm/default-runtime/lib/server/

#

If that doesn't work

#

You might prepend that to launch arguments
