Problems in Arch (crashing and stuff)

TheAverageMan

Hello, I recently downloaded this game due to the drop in prices with steam sales but I am sad to say that when I tried to play this game it didn't work!

When I started up the tutorial it went through Loading, Initializing and Loading Maps on the screen, it crashed on Loading Maps. I got these errors: WARNING: Corrected case of '/home/rabble/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Natural Selection 2/ns2/materials/eclipse/eclipse_Main_Area_A_B4_Spec.dds' and some of these
warning: The VAD has been replaced by a hack pending a complete rewrite.
I got a boat load of corrected case errors.

I am running a Archlinux 64bit machine if that info helps at all. I was guessing that the problem may be because you are running openGL(Beta) but I'm not the most technical person so my guess probably isn't to good.

I should also mention that it was sort of laggy on the menu.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this and sorry if my writing seems messy

my linux knowhow is next to nothing.
But I would verify steam cache to start.

There appear to be issues with the 3.12 kernel. More details here: http://forums.unknownworlds.com/discussion/133356/linux-natural-selection-crash-on-optimize-and-loading-new-map
