[Solved] Official OpenMW package not working

I installed openmw with

# pacman -S openmw

and I can't launch it.
Here are the logs:

This

[23:12:10.713 E] Error: unknown global variable: gamehour

is the error that pops up when I launch openmw outside of the terminal.

Re: [Solved] Official OpenMW package not working

I am very dumb and you're supposed to run

$ openmw-wizard

and

$ openmw-launcher 

My apologies.

Not too dumb to eventually figure it yourself, apparently

Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
