After Update to 2.1.0 .dat File is Missing in Flatpak on Linux
Closed this issue · 3 comments
Hi,
After the Flatpak Update today to Version 2.1.0 the Game is missing the .dat File. The former Version was running perfectly as Flatpak on opensuse Tumbleweed.
Best Regards
Hello
this is not a software problem. I tried to downgrade to previous version and flatpak warned me that
Error: Wrong size for extra data https://archive.org/26/items/pinball_202007/Pinball.zip
so my guess is that after the great archive.org heist, file paths were changed on archive.org and the software can't find the original data files (these files can't be on Github for legal reasons) in their previous place.
I have duckduckgoed the file for ya:
https://archive.org/details/pinball_202007
download the Pinball.zip file, unzip it (I mean the files, not the Pinball directory) into
~/.var/app/com.github.k4zmu2a.spacecadetpinball/data/SpaceCadetPinball
and it will make Pinball run again.
Update: opened flathub/com.github.k4zmu2a.spacecadetpinball#31
Same issue on Mac OS, thank you @WrongProblem that worked!
Edit: for anyone else on Mac, move the .DAT and .WAV files from the above Pinball.zip to /Applications/SpaceCadetPinball.app/Contents/Resources
Thank you @WrongProblem.
It worked for me.
