How to launch on Linux?

[Jamz]

other people say you can play sm64coopdx on Linux and there is a Linux version but I have yet to be able to launch it myself.

I have tried to use wine it just gives me an error saying:"File not found." about ten times.​

You need to give the game execution permissions. To do this in the terminal just do chmod +x sm64coopdx. To do this in the gui, right click on the game executable and go to properties, then select "Execute as program"

I worked! Thanks.

As one fully converting to Linux, I've given the game permission to run, but nothing happens. sm64coopdx ran on my Steam Deck in desktop mode before as well as on an old Mac, but not on my other PCs (one with Pop OS and another with Debian). Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

as Paradox says do this:
"You need to give the game execution permissions. To do this in the terminal just do chmod +x sm64coopdx. To do this in the gui, right click on the game executable and go to properties, then select "Execute as program""
you can look up of what some of this means and you can figure it out

Launch with --console to get a more detailed explanation as to why it isn't working. I would assume you're getting the glibc error, which is something you'll get if the distro you use has a lower glibc version than the one that was used when compiling the precomp. If you do, you can't fix it without compiling the game and CoopNet manually or by waiting for the next CoopDX update, which will be soon.

My Linux Desktop Entry:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=sm64coopdx
Comment=Super Mario 64
Exec=bash -c 'cd /home/dizzy/sm64coopdx_v1.4.1 && ./sm64coopdx'
Icon=/home/dizzy/Applications/sm64coopdx.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Game;

If I try to run the game from outside the unzipped directory, it fails with this message:
./sm64coopdx_v1.4.1/sm64coopdx: error while loading shared libraries: libdiscord_game_sdk.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

But if I change into the sm64coopdx directory and run it (like my Desktop entry above's Exec line), it works.

I had the same issue on my Steam Deck - needed to use a Desktop icon like this w/ Steam ROM Manager to get it added as a Non-Steam Game.

Good luck!
