Succumate v1.03
1. Download the Linux launcher from OP and the game.
2. Copy over the game's www folder in the launchers folder.
3. Set permission "Allow executing file as program" to "nw" file (right click -> properties -> permissions).
4. Open Terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) and drag and drop "nw" file into Terminal's window and hit enter. (Note: trying to launch the game via Game.desktop won't work.)

so that works kind of I get a lot of errors and same outcome if ran in browser but it does this in opening and if I skip and just play the game it will hang after a while and keep me locked in a loading screen with the same error message Screenshot from 2020-12-02 03-27-32.png

The missing fonts errors in Terminal are normal.

Whenever you come across a "Loading Error" check the path shown -> "www/img/pictures/Open the door_008.png".
Now we see that the file is named "Open the Door_0008" with an capital d and not "Open the door_008". Means, dev was lazy to use the same names in his code and files (case sensitivity isn't important on Windows but on Linux it is!).

Solution: Rename the file as shown in the "Loading Error"- Message => Open the door_008.rpgmvp and click on Retry.

Use Ubuntu's on board tools -> mark every file you want to rename -> right click -> choose "rename".

The same thing happened with Lida's Adventures. Taking ownership of the save folder (chown) fixed the issue.
Take Lida's Adventures for example, on Linux you can't access dev's provides saves, because you are not the owner of the save folder. Fixing permission (chmod) didn't help; what I had to do was to get ownership of the folder (chown) or create my own save folder and then copy over dev's saves.

Hey pk2000,

Regarding the pixi.js stuff, I have four questions:

1) Your instructions in this thread's first post is to put the "pixi-patch.js" file in the "libs" folder.
Did you mean the "lib" (with no "s") folder? Because I cannot find any folder called "libs."

2) When you tell us to "replace the default pixi.js with the versions v4.5.6 or v4.8.9," are you saying that we should replace the "pixi-patch.js" file we placed in the "lib" folder with the version v4.5.6 or v4.8.9 "pixi.js" file?

3) It seems that there are newer versions of pixi.js as seen in this . Should we use those versions instead of the ones you have provided?

4) Last but not least, the zip files you provided for version v4.5.6 or v4.8.9 each contain both a "pixi.js" and a "pixi.js.map" file when they are extracted. Should we copy both files ("pixi.js" and a "pixi.js.map") into the "lib" or "libs" folder?

Thanks for your help!
