Hi,
A while back, when I used Windows, I bought the game Undertale (never finished it lol) on a physical CD (NOT Steam) and I really liked it.
Since then, I've stopped playing it because of... reasons. I've also, during that time, switched to Linux.
Recently I wanted to get back into Undertale, and I copied the Linux folder (containing all the assets and the executable) to my home directory.
Upon attempting to execute it via PCManFM, it did nothing. No process was spawned, nothing happened. Told it to run via the terminal, and gnome-terminal reported There was an error creating the child process for this terminal
Failed to execute child process “/media/whom/UNDERTALE/Linux/UNDERTALE”: Failed to execve: No such file or directory
But yet, the file was in the directory, it was 4.7MiB, so not an empty file, showed up with ls
, etc.
Attempting to launch it via bash gives bash: /home/whom/undertale/UNDERTALE: No such file or directory
However using chmod x UNDERTALE
works fine, no errors! Same with touch
, so the file definitely exists.
The same issues occur when launching the executable directly from the CD, so the file isn't broken.
Any help? I don't really want to use WINE because it's probably better to run natively.
Oh, and I almost forgot: This is on Debian Testing, game is version 1.05, and the CD is in okay condition (not brand-new, but not bad by any means)
Edit: i tried launching Undertale with Wine from the CD and it froze my computer lol
