Linux - Error: Game Path is not valid
Closed this issue · 7 comments
Running on EndeavourOS/Arch Linux, I get an error when entering the game path.
The path is correct but it isn't being accepted by the program.
Is it when you go to the settings tab to change the path?
If so, this is a bug specifically on Linux sorry about that. It is already patched in the newest update which should be released soon.
I think if you manually input the file location in config.ini it should work
It's right at the first startup
The config.ini is empty but if I try to paste it in anyway, it spits out errors and doesn't launch at all.
Oh wow I'll take a look, sorry about that
Try copy/pasting this into config.ini and customize it to your liking and see if you can get past it (This is my config file)
[OPTIONS]
game_path = D:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/PAYDAY 2
mmm_update_alert = True
color_theme = dark
windowsize_w = 1143
windowsize_h = 800
Hmm. For some reason pasting and editing your config with my path still doesn't seem to work.
When I open it, all the other settings apply but it still prompts me for a path and won't accept it.
I know this might sound a little silly, but I just came to realization that there's a chance the program might be allowing escape characters through.
Try replacing / with \\ in the ini file
I removed the requirement for detecting the executable for payday 2 in the newest patch which is out right now
If there are any other issues let me know
Ok, I updated and now it sees all my mods/mods_overrides without having to change anything. Thanks!
