At this point I don't know what quite to do. I'm hoping some other linux autist that knows how to debug games is on /wsr/.
I'm trying to get the linux version of Heavy Gear 2 to run on my Steam Deck, I've gotten it to a point where I can boot up the menu and dick around with the settings and keybinds. But the moment I try to get into the game itself it crashes with a segfault and core dump.
I've tried all sorts of voodoo magic from using sdl12-compat to wrap the SDL 1.2 functionality to SDL 2. Trying to use the patch libraries from https://github.com/liflg/hg.2_1.00b-english_x86. My suspicion tells me it has something to do with the libgthread-1.2.so.0 library that I got from the github link above, but the game wont launch without them. What's bizarre is that I can actually get the demo version of Heavy Gear 2 to run just fine. All it needed was the SDL wrapper. Another oddity is that the game seemed to launch just fine on my old linux mint laptop, I'm wondering if something about SteamOS and it being Arch based is causing the game to crash.
