I'd recommend trying a different set of drivers for your graphics card. That error is in trying to create the window, something basic is missing from the driver.

I am using the offical open sourced amdgpu driver. what other graphics driver is out there?

I found a fix for it. The issue is that the one of the c++ library is so old, it is incompaitble with the newer graphics card driver. This happens beacuse the developers are too lazy and lack the incesntive to update/maintain the game for linux.

Anyway, this is the solution to the problem:
Go to the games directory. Go to bin, go to lin64, rename libstdc++.so.6 to libstdc++.so.6.BAK which i bleieve force the application to use the built in libstdc++ on linux system.

You can also do this on the terminal. cd into lin64 directory and then type "mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.BAK" without the quotes

Your judgment of developers for this old game is really not nice.
If you havent noticed, game studio is closed. They even released patches and help afterwards.
But to judge someone lazy because they havent updated the game after studio disbanded......nuts.

Might want to install x86 drivers as well as x64 or an older version of drivers, ♥♥♥♥♥ always wonky on linux, you gotta learn what the errors mean xD and find a work around. Ahhh i miss my linux gaming laptop

I´m using Win7 64 bit and am suffering from the same problem. I am unable to launch the game since 2 years and tried every suggestion in this forum without success.

Set up a new user account in win7. Try as admin there
