Trying to launch Expeditions: Conquistador results in an error message:
The reason is revealed when looking into the Desura scripts at desura/common/expeditions-conquistador:
Since the $BIN_PATH variable includes a space (the game executable has a space in it), it fails to launch, since everything after the space is interpreted as an argument. To fix that, $BIN_PATH should be enclosed by quotes. Note that doing so makes it possible to launch the game from the terminal, but the Desura client still gives me the same error. |
