    Savage 2.0 the battle for newerth install

    I was trying to install Savage 2.0. I wondered if anyone had successfully installed it.

    I found the instructions here

    http://www.evolvedclan.com/forums/in...pic,259.0.html and the main website here http://www.s2games.com/savage/downloads.php

    However the linux instructions say just install each as you go but all packages are in various formats, If you have got them going I would love a little more verbose instructions on what you did.

    Or if you know any good games like this let me know. I am i the mood for gaming.

          I created a desktop to launch it using the command "kdesu ~/savage" and that works fine. I probably should have just chmod +x ~/games/savage and then it would have run as savage. I am installing an update from here http://www.notforidiots.com as http://www.notforidiots.com/autoupdater/SEP-3T.tar.gz so will see how that goes its suppossed have extra weapons and effects.

          Did you put the $@ in the silverback.bin file as in

          Alter ./savage.bin to read ./silverback.bin $@

          For example; #!/bin/sh
          # Needed to make symlinks/shortcuts work.
          # the binaries must run with correct working directory
          cd /home/czar/games/Savage
          #LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ./savage.bin /home/czar/games/Savage
          LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ./silverback.bin $@ /home/czar/games/Savage
          exit 0

                    This one works for me:

                    It's the easiest method. It also warns against installing the EX2 patch, as it is not maintained well. SEP works great for me...current version is SEP-3T+
