Wakfu won't launch under Linux.

[SANIC]

I successfully downloaded the launcher and the game updated completely. When I try to launch the game nothing will happen and I'm a little stumped.

I'm running Fedora 31 and using MESA drivers with an AMD RX 460.

Same here on Debian 10. Messages on CLI :

user@chihiro:~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Wakfu$ ./Ankama\ Launcher-Setup-x86_64.AppImage
[2154:0221/213611.562477:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /tmp/.mount_Ankamamy6QRX/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.

Problem solved for me :
- First issue : the launcher won't start. Add "--no-sandbox" in steam game properties / launch parameters.
- Second issue : the launcher was up, wakfu installed, but the start game button in the launcher won't start anything. Solved after Installation the package "openjdk11" (debian package). The game needs java. On command line if you type "java" and get "command not found" then you need to install openjdk11.

Doesn't help here. Pu "--no-sandbox" to game propertoies Launch options" - java 11 already was installed ("java -version" showd Java 11). But it still does not start anything.

Noticed that files in /<InstallationDirectory>/jre/linux/x64/bin did not have Linux executable bit set. Gave all files execution rights. But it still does nothing when clicking the play button in this stupid game launcher.

I'm using debian 10, and when I start the luancher a get something like this:

I fix'it using running the following command every time I want play:
sudo sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1

This is much more secure than "--no-sandbox"
I hopes it works for you

I run Linux Mint 19.3. and have the same problem. The play button does nothing, even with those fixes above.

the problem over new lancher is one dependency with google guice 5.1.0, latest wakfu game include this version that does not contain some class definition, I resolved temporary this issue and report to Ankama but still not resolves or Ankanma ignore me, the solve is move next jars from lib game path to backup folder or delete: guice-5.1.0.jar, guice-assistedinject-5.1.0.jar , guice-multibindings-4.2.3.jar and copy old dependency jar files of guice-4.0: guice-4.0.jar, guice-assistedinject-4.0.jar ,guice-multibindings-4.0.jar over current lib game path. Help me to explain this situation to Ankama to resolve bad dependency version of jars.
