Nanthiel Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Hello!I downloaded Shank 2 from the Humble Bundle 7 page, and I must be crazy or something, but I can't find an actual executable for Shank 2 in my .tar.gz download. There's just library files and resources. How do I run it?Thank you, Nanthiel Edited December 20, 2012 by Nanthiel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patkoscsaba Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I have exactly the same problem. It seems like the archive is corrupted. It is not a download issue, the file as present on the servers is corrupted so it doesn't matter how many times you check it or download it or with which application.As with the previous persons, I have correct md5sums but the file is still corrupted and can't be extracted. I found no way to recover or repair the archive so please fix this as Soon as possible because we payed to play this game.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Same problem here OS: 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.32-1 x86_64 GNU/LinuxGZIP: 1.5-1.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patkoscsaba Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 For the original poster: Can you please change the title of this into something like "Can't extract archive Shank 2 for Linux" so that more people can easier identify it? I think there will be a lot of comments here Soon... I hope a fix will also come Soon. I actually bought the Indie Bundle for this game only.

patkoscsaba Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 By the way, did you get the file from torrents or direct download? I've downloaded the torrent, trying the direct download now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there will be a lot of comments here Soon... I hope a fix will also come Soon. I actually bought the Indie Bundle for this game only.I had no problems unpacking the archive. But seems it's a more common issue than the missing file. I don't know why I didn't get an error. Will update the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patkoscsaba Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 @Nanthiel - You have the same problem as we do. Some GUI archiving tool may suppress the error, or just show something neutral message. I was also able to extract a lot of file, but at some point it just can't find / extract the rest of the files. This is when the error appears in the console and this is why you had no executable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanthiel Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 I used 'tar -xf $fname' in the shell. But I tried it again now and I do get the same error that was mentioned. I must have been so eager to play the game before that I simply ignored output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the archive in the torrent. To start a game, do the following steps. Open your console in the current folder archive game and type:gunzip shank2-Linux-b10.tar.gzKonsole freezes for a few minutes. Decompression in the process. Аftertar xvf shank2-Linux-b10.tarThis will create a folder named Shank 2. Go to the / bin and run shank2-bin. Enjoy.PS. I forgot to say I have Kubuntu 12.04. Should work for all versions _ubutnu 12.04. Edited December 21, 2012 by my1ord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pholklore Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 This will create a folder named Shank 2. Go to the / bin and run shank2-bin. Enjoy.It's a bit silly to have to cd into bin first.Can the script please be adjusted to be able to launch it from any directory, please?You just need to put something like this at the top of the script (after the shebang): DIR=`readlink -f "$0"` cd "`dirname "$DIR"`"I've hacked my copy that way.A .desktop file would be super too.
