Problems running this game on Linux
Hello everyone. I just purchased this game and it will not run. I get a small popup window that says "an internal error occurred". No error numbers.

I am running Linux Mint the latest version. I am a bit of a newbie to linux, just changed over from windows, because of Microshit. LOL

I can run many other games just fine. This is the only one I am having an issue with.


I ran steam through the terminal, and this is what it says.
michael@MINT-DESKTOP:~$ steam
Running Steam on linuxmint 20.1 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Pins up-to-date!
Steam client's requirements are satisfied
WARNING: Using default/fallback debugger launch
/home/michael/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam

I appreciate any help with this.

Also I have uninstalled and reinstalled 2 times. I have verified the steam local files.

Hopefully a Dev will be monitoring this and can provide some information, however your best bet is to use the support forums or even contacting the developers directly on their website and asking for direction on what to do as the general forums are not really the right place for this particular problem to be resolved as this sounds like it will require a Dev's knowledge of the system to help fix.

Ok thanks. I have found the dev for this (urban games) and I have just sent a support message to them.

You are probably not using the right version of the proton emulator. Just right click TPF2, select properties in your STEAM library and navigate thru the options until you find the compatibility tool, and select version proton 5.0.10, instead of experimental or higher 6.X versions.

STEAM will launch a download, just wait for it to finish and enjoy TPF2.

TpF2 is linux native. Proton isn't needed.

I assume you are using an Nvidia GPU? This may be your issue, try using a different driver.

It's funny you say that, since I've just upgraded tp linux myself, and installed TPF2 on this new PC, and that download, plus a common redistribution addon of some desciption, was forced upon the first launch of the game here. Then, I may have spoken too fast on this topic or just had an hallucination that it did. Now I just wonder what it is I got.

If(and that ''if'' maybe be removed) you are right about TPF2 being linux native, this is great news still, and thank you for the information anyways. I'm totally done with microsoft crap and BS anyways...
