Neverwinter Nights Installation

[ItIsMe]

Whenever I try to run Neverwinter Nights I get a message saying;


: command not found
: command not found
: command not found
: command not found
./nwmain: error while loading shared libraries: libmss.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Does anyone know how to fix this?

Use the ./nwn script. It sets up your LD_LIBRARY_PATH properly to include ./miles, which is where it is located.

Next time try to google (http://google.com/search?q=libmss)

What code am I meant to type in?

muhammad@ubuntu:~$ cd NWN
muhammad@ubuntu:~/NWN$ ./nwn
Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed)

@ItIsMe - As advised, open a terminal and go into your nwn directory. From there, type nwn. That's it.

@Muhammad - If you are getting segfaults when you try to launch Neverwinter, you have bigger fish to fry. Are you sharing this install in any way with a Windows install? Did you copy files over from a Windows install? Neither of those work in my experience. You need to do the Linux install from the ground up. See http://nwn.bioware.com/downloads/linuxclient.html.

Following these instructions seems to fix most nwn problems. Mine at least.

Did you copy files over from a Windows install?

Yep, I guess this is my problem...

Running the checks showed that some files were corrupted and even missing. I also used files from a Windows install. Everything runs fine now.

Stop digging up old threads folks.
