1 I upgraded to the newer version of Ubuntu and tried to run Zero-K. The loading prompt would show up(for steam), then nothing would happen. 1 I upgraded to the newer version of Ubuntu and tried to run Zero-K. The loading prompt would show up(for steam), then nothing would happen.

19 I figure from the first error that its a missing library problem or some library Zero-K used for debian systems is simply missing from this release. I have not tried running the game on a fresh install of 21.04, but it could possibly not be unique to me. 21 I figure from the first error that its a missing library problem or some library Zero-K used for debian systems is simply missing from this release.

22 I did try to verify file integrity, which did show missing files, however this didn't do much in regards to steam. But it does allow me to boot the game manually. 24 I did try to verify file integrity, which did show missing files, however this didn't do much in regards to steam.

26 Don't really want to reinstall the game at the moment, that'll take an hour or two for me. Manually starting the game is working just fine thankfully. 28 Don't really want to reinstall the game at the moment, that'll take an hour or two for me.
