Troubleshooting


I can't compile U61, help!

Problem

U61 configuration scripts are not perfect, and compilation might fail for various reasons since U61 depends on a fair amount off libraries, some of them not being - yet - available on every Linux distribution (ClanLib, Hermes, Lua...).

Solution


When I run U61, I get protection faults 8-(

Problem

This often happens when data and/or configuration files are not installed correctly. It may also happen if you have installed a new release of U61 over an older one.

Solution

Under Linux, remove the following files/directories:

Once you have removed these, reinstall the game and and try and launch it again.


I installed u61-data, but I can't see the new themes/scripts

Problem

You have installed u61-data, but when you run U61, only the default theme is available in the Options/Themes menu.

You have probably installed "u61"and "u61-data" in different directories.

Solution

Under Linux, remove the "~/.u61" directory, and re-install the packages in the same directory (for instance /usr/local). Check that the binary you are using is the right one by typing "which u61".

Under Windows, unzip in u61-data in the directory where u61 has been installed. Basically, files from the u61-data package should overwrite files from the base u61 package.
