Arch Linux User Repository

================ INTRODUCTION (updated) ================

Arx Fatalis[1] is a proprietary first-person role-playing game for Win32.

The game executables have been open-sourced, and meanwhile ported to Linux (and improved) by the Arx Libertatis[2] project. This package provides the latest stable executables released by said project.

However, the game data is still proprietary and can only be acquired by buying the full Win32 version of the game[3]. The following AUR packages exist for installing the Arx Fatalis game data for use with the Arx Libertatis executables, depending on the source:

@MartinX3 I just updated the package to Arx Libertatis 1.2. Try it now.

Hello, I've been having trouble building the package. It fails at 73% on the CrashHandlerImpl.cpp.o file.

Here's what the output has to say:

Thank you for your help !

You. Are. Awesome. :-)

Updated :)

Unfortunately the build fails with the following error:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:453 (check_include_files): Unknown CMake command "check_include_files".

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I had a look at the log files, but since I don't know anything about CMake I couldn't decipher any of it into something that would give me a clue.

The much older (last update in 2016) arxlibertatis package fails to build with the same error.

I'm running into the same CMAKE error.

With the last update being March 2016, and this being an ancient game, I imagine the maintainer has long since lost interest in this package. It would be massively appreciated, however, if he could please have a look at this.

I still had this installed.
Starting it fails:

arx: error while loading shared libraries: libGLEW.so.1.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

- installing glew1.13 fixes that.

BTW, an attempted reinstallation failed with the same error as below.

Can't compile anymore:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:453 (check_include_files):
  Unknown CMake command "check_include_files".


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

404 file not found. Seems sourceforge changed again....
