Robocraft freezes on login screen, freezes steam with it

Robocraft (Installed via steam) works fine on my machine on kubuntu and windows, so I know it is not a hardware issue. It freezes at about the same time as the steam overlay opens, but freezes even when the steam overlay is disabled.

Output of starting robocraft via terminal:

everything works fine up until

Is there a way to get more debug info? Or maybe someone knows the solution to this problem?

Re: Robocraft freezes on login screen, freezes steam with it

There are some core libs that are incompatible with the new libraries in arch and the older ones that are in use by steam. If you install steam-native-runtime and steam-native and then start steam with steam-native as opposed to the normal steam, does that help?

Steam native is missing a bunch o libs, installing those now

Re: Robocraft freezes on login screen, freezes steam with it

even after installing all those, steam will not launch with the steam runtime disabled (via steam-native)

Could not load module 'vgui2_s.so'.

Re: Robocraft freezes on login screen, freezes steam with it

EDIT: running the native runtime via the actual steam-native-runtime package instead of the native runtime that came with steam works fine, strange...

So now the native runtime works, but the issue persists even in the native runtime.

Re: Robocraft freezes on login screen, freezes steam with it

The reddit article sounds as if this could bail you out:
https://geekscloud.wordpress.com/2012/0 … e-command/

You'd need to figure the "vanilla ubuntu" uname and fake that (for I assume this is what they check, given the discussion over there), but frankly: rather claim your money back and play something else.

PS: you'll have to fake more than the nodename
