    Can you help this Newbie with an install prob

    I downloaded a game called Soccer Slam 2006 game
    http://www.bolzplatz2006.de/en/downloads.php
    It's a tar.gz.
    I extracted the file with ARK into a folder called Soccer game.
    '/home/defaultusers/Soccer game/bolzplatz2006'
    I can't find any install instructions.

    there is a Licence text.

    The read me text says: 'Java 1.5 or higher is required to run this game.

    For more information see tutorial.html'

    The setting SH. says:#!/bin/sh
    java -classpath "game.jar:lib/jirr/irrlicht.jar:lib/lwjgl/lwjgl_util.jar:lib/lwjgl/lwjgl.jar:lib/dom4j/dom4j-1.6.1.jar:lib/sdl/sdljava.jar:lib/vecmath.jar" -Djava.library.path="lib/dom4j:lib/jirr:lib/lwjgl:lib/other:lib/sdl" com.xenoage.bp2k6.tools.settings.SettingsTool >log2.txt 2>&1

    And the tutorial says: Slam Soccer 2006 - Tutorial


    Welcome to Slam Soccer 2006!

    This short tutorial helps you to learn the most important things about Slam Soccer 2006. If you have further questions or problems, then visit our forum at: http://www.xenoage.com/bp2k6/en/forum.php


    Game Modes

    Friendly Game

    If you just want to play a match, this is the right mode for you. You can play against the computer or against a human opponent, or you can even watch a computer-vs-computer match. Before the match starts, you have to select the two teams (both football clubs and national teams are possible, you can choose between more than 80 teams!), a stadium, the weather and the referee. Then the match starts.

    World Cup

    In this game mode you can play the football World Cup 2006. Choose one of the 32 national teams and first play the 3 group matches. If you place first or second, you are qualified for the round of sixteen. If you win the final of the World Cup, you can register in the online hall-of-fame on our website.

    Career

    This is the game mode for real football enthusiasts. Start with a team of your choice, but start from scratch. You play in the shabby "village league" and have a small and muddy stadium, but you can improve your situation step for step. You get money for won matches and good marketing, and you can invest into your stadium and build new stands and attractions. With some mean tricks you can make it a little bit easier... But the most decisive thing is your sportive success, and that means: Champion of the premium league! If zou even win the international Allstars League, zou can register in the hall-of-fame on our website.


    Multiplayer

    Nothing is more fun than to play again a human opponent, that's why we integrated a multiplayer mode in Slam Soccer 2006. To make things easy, both players sit in front of the same screen and computer. Ideally two gamepads are used (Slam Soccer 2006 finds them automatically, if they are correctly installed in your operating system), but you can also play with one gamepad and the keyboard, or even both players with the keyboard.


    The Matches

    Let's now talk about the most important part of this game: the football matches! We have tried to keep the control as simple as possible. The following paragraph describes the default configuration, but you can change it in the "settings" menu as you like.


    Player 1 Keyboard Gamepad
    Run left Arrow key left Left
    Run up Arrow key up Up
    Run right Arrow key right Right
    Run down Arrow key down Down
    Pass, without ball: tackle L Button 1
    Shoot, without ball: player change K Button 3
    Sprint J Button 2

    Player 2 Keyboard Gamepad
    Run left F F
    Run up T T
    Run right H H
    Run down G G
    Pass, without ball: tackle D Button 1
    Shoot, without ball: player change S Button 3
    Sprint A Button 2

    Re: Can you help this Newbie with an install prob

    You need to run the script called bolzplatz2006.sh. There is no installation as it runs from the folder you extracted.

    You can run it directly from a terminal:
    Code:
     sh '/home/defaultusers/Soccer game/bolzplatz2006/bolzplatz2006.sh'
    or create a desktop icon to it:
    Right-click on your desktop, select : New - Link to Application. Enter a name for the link.
    Then click on the Application tab, and in the command box, browse to the file bolzplatz2006.sh.
    then, in the work path box, browse to the game folder (/home/defaultusers/Soccer game/bolzplatz2006 in your case), and click OK.

    You can select an icon by going back to the "General" tab and clicking the icon button in the upper left corner, and either poking around for some stock System icons icons, or click "other" and browse around, there may be some in your game's folders so poke around in there beforehand to see if there are any you like

      Thanks for you quick reply.
      It won't work I get this error
      'No such file or directory'
      Maybe my file is corrupted?
      I deleted it and
      I re extracted it to a new folder called '/home/defaultusers/bolzplatz2006'
      I then tried ./home/defaultusers/boltzplatz2006/boltzplatz2006.sh and I still got the same error.
      I also tried it without the ' . ' at the beginning of the command and still no luck.

        Try method 2 as it saves on typing time, or see my edited post above for a command string that actually works

          Thanks Claydoh.
          The shortcut worked.
          I still had some issues with it opening, the graphics were slow.
          i updated my Nv card Via Automatix and it froze during loading.
          I have it working now, it just hangs slightly during startup. Must be a graphics issue.
          Thanks for your help.
          Cheers

              I un installed it as the graphics are too slow.
              It works fine on XP with the Windoze version.
              Oh well, back to the drawing board.
