I went on IRC and people referred me to John. John had a couple ideas that didn't work (he's pretty busy with Darwinia+), but he suggested trying it in Wine.

It works flawlessly in Wine, so I guess I don't really need the native version working anymore. Thanks for the help, though!

Okay so I managed to find an old Windows computer of mine and test the Windows version of that. It worked, but was really slow (yeah old computer). I copied over the *.dat files from that machine to see if it was an issue with the Linux dat files. It gave an error saying certain files were missing, ...

Okay I've looked around and I can't find anything. I'm out of ideas. Here are the MD5s of my data files, just to make sure they are not corrupted: ffad6b6072bcae93037c16d88739dd6c darwinia.bin.x86 4542374e788333d08df18242c73cbe02 language.dat 7d8420ed1b9299e4939a0e81db96844e main.dat 723b1b70cd0d3bb...

I tried out the beta and it's exactly the same.

EDIT: I feel stupid for not reading the FAQ first... I'll go through that in a bit and see if that fixes my problem. If not, I'll report back.

I found a few sources that mention version numbers, and it appears that the numbers are: 1.5.11 Windows, 1.4.2 Mac, 1.4.0 beta 9 Linux. http://stellarmatter.net/darwikia/index.php/Darwinia/GameUpdates I tried out the beta and it's exactly the same. I also tried your other rendering modes. 1 = no lan...

I just installed 1.3.0 patch and it's the same thing.

I saw a link somewhere at some point to a 1.4.2 patch, but when I clicked it, it was a 1.3.0 download link... is there a 1.4.2 build for Darwinia or is it just 1.3.0?

I just tried the demo and it's doing the same thing (segfault vs. no land).

THANK YOU!!! That allowed me to enter into the game! The only issue is that the ground doesnt render at all... screenshot here: http://bcable.net/darwinia_bug.png Any ideas? I assume this is because you changed the landscape rendering mode :). I'll poke around in that file a bit more to see if I can...

I am running Debian 64-bit linux with an NVIDIA graphics card using the nvidia-glx_185.18.36-2_amd64 graphics driver. I have ia32-libs installed and also ia32-* installed, just to be safe. Originally, Darwinia threw an error about my GCC version support which I fixed with the following: mv lib/libgc...
