Opensonic FATAL ERROR: couldn't load spritesheet

Frabato · 2012-04-06 15:36:49

Hi All,

I'm trying to get the Opensonic game running for my son, it was built from AUR and when I try to run it I get "FATAL ERROR: couldn't load spritesheet "images/spring_pads.png". The website says:

- Installation instructions:
Copy & paste (overwrite if needed) all the folders/archives to your opensurge directory.

But I don't know where the directories are or where they should be copied to.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Would this be as simple as putting the image into /usr/share/opensonic? The PKGBUILD makes it look like that's the data directory.

Thanks very much for your reply. I found the image /usr/share/opensonic/images/spring_pads.png and I put it in /usr/share/opensonic but the error message remains. Again, the website says to: Copy & paste (overwrite if needed) all the folders/archives to your opensurge directory, but I don't see an opensurge directory. I'm pretty inexperienced at this so maybe someone can spot a simple oversight. Here is the output of pacman -Ql opensonic:

Oh well then the file was already in the right place. Are you sure the website instructions need to be followed by users of the package? That sounds like installation advice - stuff you would only use when you're making a PKGBUILD. To see where the image is being looked for instead, it might help to run "strace" on opensonic and look for lines that refer to png files.
