Any help?

Hi!
Sorry for the delay, i wasn't around for some time.

I have 2 questions:
1. What OS are you using?
2. Can you send us your log.html (can be found in OGStudio/Mahjong in your home or documents folder)? You can send it to bugs@opengamestudio.org.

Hi!

We need some more information to help you.
Please send log.html (you can found it in ~/.OGStudio/Mahjong) to bugs@opengamestudio.org.

Ahoj,
file log.html not found.
Folder OGStudio or Mahjong not found.
I found only folder desura/common/ogs-mahjong.

Hi!

The game stores it's settings and logs in that folder: <home folder>/.OGStudio/Mahjong.It can be hidden, if you're using Gnome Nautilus or KDE Dolphin to view your home folder, dut you can still access it by entering the path manually.

If there is no such folder, then it may be the reason of the crash, that you encountered. If the game can't create this folder, it will not start.

Unfortunately, this forum doesn't inform me of a new replies, so i can't answer you quickly. Send us an email (the address was in my previous post), we'll try to solve the problem.

Ahoj,
hidden folder home / .OGStudio / Mahjong not exist. The game is saved in the home / desura / common / OGS-mahjong.
Subfolders lib, res.
Log.html file does not exist.
The answer does not hurry and private communication will not be visible for others forum members, who are looking for an answer to the same question.

Okay, let's try something else.
Try running the game from terminal.
Just run the desura/common/ogs-mahjong/desura_launch_Play.sh file and if you'll get the error message, post it here.

Also, if the message will be like this:

error while loading shared libraries: libssh2.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


then you need to delete this file: desura/common/ogs-mahjong//lib/libcurl.so.4
and then try to run the game again.

Yes!
terminal, that's right
xxx-desktop:~/desura/common/ogs-mahjong$ sh desura_launch_Play.sh
/home/xxx/desura/common/ogs-mahjong/lib/mj-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I deleted libcurl.so.4
I play a very nice game. :-)
thanks for your help
