Could not load OpenGL library
« on: Tuesday, June 13, 2017, 16:20:30 PM »
Update
When trying to run the game itself I get error "Could not load OpenGL library" .. "Exiting due to error" ..

Anyone knows what could be the case?

There's been a number of threads on problems (and a few solutions) with 25Assist under Ubuntu/Linux.

I.e:
http://aao25.com/forum/assist-support/i-can't-install-the-game-or-start-25assist-in-ubuntu-14-04-02/
http://aao25.com/forum/aa-support/cannot-get-aa-running-und-ubuntu-14-04-lts-64-bit/
http://aao25.com/forum/support/linux-assist-2-5-no-acceleration


I would like to point out that in the last thread, I managed to get the game working on Ubuntu. I didn't read the thread thoroughly, but I do remember there being issues of not having the appropriate 32bit libraries for the game (which had to be downloaded manually given the :i386) and I remember I had some other problems as well.

Also, I don't think I've managed to run it without sudo, unfortunately.

Thanks, I managed to run Assist, but now the game just quits after the logo comes up. I installed all the libs I could find!

The command to run assist is
Code: [Select]
sudo ./25Assist

I am getting error "Could not load OpenGL library" when I run the armyops-bin .. what's the matter?

I installed all the libs and it shows green for OpenGL acceleration in Assist.

I found a 13 year old post about a similar issue:
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/131907-33-armyops-load-opengl-library

Let me start by saying I'm not a Linux expert.
However, from reading the link above, it sounds like something similar to what I did in the old thread (where you also posted), so making a symbolic link of something (and don't ask me what) might remedy the situation.
Or just reinstalling it as suggested in the link within this post.

Also, you might get more information if you
Code: [Select]
export LD_DEBUG=libs before running armyops. Again, not sure if the output will be of use.

This solved it!

`sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx:i386`
