    [SOLVED] Trouble with game download instructions

    I am trying to download the Linux version of the game Fighter ace..
    The link to the download instructions are here:
    http://linux.ketsujin.com/index.php?...d=19&Itemid=35

    I cant get tarball to unpack, I get this:

    $ tar -jxvf PATH_TO/FighterAce-3.x-112.i386.tbz2
    tar: PATH_TO/FighterAce-3.x-112.i386.tbz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory
    tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
    tar: Child returned status 2
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

    I dont know enough to deviate from the instructions,,can this game be downloaded in Ubuntu?

    Why not jus double click the file which will take you to the archive manager and hit extract? Its a much simpler way for those who are new to linux.

    Download to you Desktop?

    cd Desktop

    ls (should see the file)

    tar -xvf FighterAce-3.x-112.i386.tbz2
    Then just continue with the step-by-step instructions on the site.

    got it to extract, but all of the other instructions are met with no such file or directory replies

    after extraction, I get a file called opt,,
    I cd into it to do the other instructions right?
