Hello,

I have a problem with the linux version of the game: the game crash while loading the world (just after character creation), and I have this in the terminal:

Unable to preload the following plugins:
ScreenSelector.so
libCSteamworks.so
libsteam_api.so
Display 0 '0': 1366x768 (primary device).
Logging to /home/aristoxene/.config/unity3d/Editor/Player.log
[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.
[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; unable to locate a running instance of Steam, or a local steamclient.so.

Any idea ?

edit : I have installed the steam version on this computer sometime ago ( the steam version is for the "big" computer, and the gog for my laptop on linux ), maybe it's that.

edit 2: Well ... i think the true error is here ( in Player.log ) :

Edit 3 : Solved ! The solution is here : https://www.gog.com/forum/caves_of_qud/anyone_else_unable_to_play_latest_linux_versions

I don't understand why GOG doesn't include that workaround (only LC_ALL=C is needed) in their start script. It is necessary for Unity3d games and GameMaker: Studio games (like Cook, Serve, Delicous! 2!!). Back when linuxvangog was still workin here he claimed that they test the games on different locales, but most of these issues are visible at once. Some games crash, others like CSD2 don't mess up the volume settings, Tangledeep gives too much starting JPs, Big Pharma has rendering issues and more.
