Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
Did GOG change their installer?

A more round-a-about way you can do if you'r comfortable is to install FS2 using the GOG installer (make sure not to install into Program Files or other protected OS area.

After than you can run Knossos and simply point it to where GOG installed FS2. It should be able to setup from there.
That seems to have done the trick, thank you. However there isn't a play button for FSO, is this normal? Will it just run the FSO upgraded version of the game if I click play on retail in Knossos?


In case it matters, the exe file I downloaded from GOG had the following name "setup_freespace_2_1.20(32720).exe"

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
Yes, that's normal. To play FS2 with updated effects you need to download the MediaVPs mod and run that.

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
To add info; Knossos differentiates between builds and mods/games. You don't just run an FSO build. You choose a mod/game and Knossos will launch the appropriate build for it automatically.

Go to the Explore Tab to find and download from a huge list of ready-to-play mods. As Mongoose said, if you want to play FS2 with all the bells and whistles, find the MediaVPs mod and install that. Then play it.

Or just click here.

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
Glad to help. It's worth noting that Knossos' Settings has a option to hide FSO builds. (At least I think that's available in Knossos 13.3.. if not, it will be eventually.)

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
:bump:
Bump.
 
I'm getting a weird error when I try to install a couple different campaigns from Knossos 0.13.3 in Linux Mint.  "A critical error has occurred! Knossos might not work correctly until you restart it.  The error has been reported and will hopefully be fixed soon."

I haven't tried every possible campaign to install yet, but I keep getting it consistently with "The Mantle" and with the recently reuploaded "Friends and Foes" campaigns.  I posted this awhile back in Bomb3rman's release thread, but he isn't sure what could be the problem.

Are these issues actually getting reported to someone somewhere?  Is there anything I can do on my end to help diagnose?  I know Linux is probably not the preferred platform for Knossos or FSO, but for the most part I've been able to get both to work!  Just a couple befuddling exceptions, which is unfortunate because I really like both of these campaigns!  (An aside shout out: if you haven't played Friends and Foes or The Mantle yet, do yourself a favor and DO SO!  Solid, quality missions with good writing and characterization!  And they are fun to play!)

Are these issues actually getting reported to someone somewhere?
Uh, yeah... about that...

Just sorting through that and figuring out which of those are user mistakes and which are genuine bugs takes a lot of time. And even then it can be hard to figure the root cause out.

Is there anything I can do on my end to help diagnose?
Can you send me your ~/.config/knossos/log.txt?

I know Linux is probably not the preferred platform for Knossos or FSO, [...]
Knossos actually was developed on Linux initially, later on I switched to Windows to fix a few bugs there that I couldn't reproduce on Linux.

 
Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
@ngld, Sorry.  I could definitely have worded that better.  I am very grateful for any help you have time to give! 

I would love to send you my ~/.config/knossos/log.txt  Unfortunately, I have no idea where it is.  I've been using Windows my whole life, and I only switched this PC over to Linux a few months ago.  I've tried searching my local drive for "Knossos" but the only hits I'm getting that are directories are inside my ~:/usr/share/knossos/ directories.  And all of those are *.PY files (because Knossos was written in Python?), no "log.txt" to be found.  I've tried hunting around to see if I can find it on my own, but I'm just not familiar enough with how Linux does these things yet.  My intuition for nosing around in a MS OS is not helping me here.

Does Linux Mint store configuration / log files in a different place than Ubuntu, maybe?

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
The ~ is a shortcut that means your home directory. 

If you're running Mint 19, you should be able to open that file by doing the following:

Open "Text Editor"
File -> Open
Press CTRL-H to see hidden files
Open .config/knossos/log.txt

Now; not that I want to disagree with ngld, but I can't actually find that file on my Mint 19 system :) For me it's at ~/.knossos/log.txt; but everything else is the same for finding it there instead.

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
Thanks, niffiwan!  I did not know about CTRL-H to show hidden files.  It is going to take me awhile to get used to this.

I found the Log.txt file exactly where ngld said it would be.

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
Has anyone had any success with Debian with Knossos?

One would intuitively think that it would have a high compatibility out of the box, but I just kept looking at those repository command. If had a bad time with adding to the repository list when it doesn't say Debian compatibility out of the box.

Any comment from an experienced user would be appreciated. Would love to install The Babylon Project again, but I just don't have enough years under my belt to start another fight with the terminal : D.

 
Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
Can anyone tell me the best way to do a complete clean slate reinstall of Knossos onto a Linux Mint 19.2 system?  I'm convinced something has gone wrong with this installation.  I must have done something wrong.  I'm only able to download and install roughly half of the mods on the Explore tab.  The rest give me error messages.  Even mods I was previously able to download are not allowing me to anymore.

So, short of reformatting my hard drive and REALLY going full scorched earth, what is the best way to remove Knossos any any traces of settings it might leave behind so I can truly start over from scratch?

I've been trying to install the retail using the GoG installer, but it gives me an error.

I'm using Manjaro

Edit: It seems to have worked when I installed through Lutris.

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
I am getting the same error as Vida on Windows. Should I log a ticket on the GitHub repository or is it already logged?

I think the recent addition of Polish into the installer broke the process.

For some reason Knossos can't launch FSO-19.0.0-RC1 at all, just get a brief FSO IS LAUNCHING... and that's it.

I believe this can occur if you do not have either RC's or Nightlies selected in your "Preferred Engine Stability" in the Knossos options.

So, I've been trying to figure this out for over a month now, and I'm no closer now than when I started.  For some reason I cannot figure out, I am getting the following error message whenever I try to install certain mods, "A critical error has occurred! Knossos might not work correctly until you restart it.  The error has been reported and will hopefully be fixed soon."

This is happening for Blue Planet, Friends and Foes, Shadow Genesis, Between the Ashes, Trimurti, The Mantle, Derelict, Bolitho Command and The Last Stand, Exile, JAD 2.21 and 2.22, Uncharted Territory, among others.  Can anyone help me figure out what on earth could be going on and how to make it stop?  Here is a copy of my .config/knossos/log.txt.

Seriously at my wit's end and need help.  I've done everything I can think of short of reformating the hard drive to give Knossos a fresh install.  Sudo apt-get purge knossos, followed by sudo apt autoremove to get rid of orphaned configuration files.  Wipe out the FreespaceOpen directory... none of it works.  I have to reinstall Knossos, sure, but it is still acting like it has all of the old settings.  First time I ran Knossos after I installed Linux, it ran me through an introduction wizard.  It isn't doing that now.  What's more, it seems like every campaign I successfully download and play is not something I can get to install next go around.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
I hear you, Knossos is pretty broken on my Mint 19 install as well, IIRC I can't use the explore tab and I can't update anything on the home tab. I suspect there's a bug somewhere in the code (hopefully client side; not server side otherwise I doubt there's anything I can do) but I haven't summoned up the motivation to investigate it yet.

Re: PUBLIC BETA: Knossos 0.13.3 (combined launcher/installer)
If you are logged in and have any private mod access I suspect it's the same issue I have, I think it affects all platforms.  I can't view the Explore tab on Windows or macOS now.  Haven't really been able to use Knossos since that started happening.

I don’t have a login or any developer access. Sounds like this may be more complicated than I thought!  :(
