Sounds like you need to look at how you installed it. I did so with this command: ./steam -command update -game ship -dir theship
Thus, I have folders like such: ./theship/bin ./theship/ship/bin The engine_i686.so file resides in theship/bin (again, "theship" is because of what i specified as the dir in my steam command). So if you used "steam -command update -game ship -dir ." then your files might be in unexpected places. -Joe On Jul 26, 2012, at 3:30 PM, Saul Rennison wrote: > I'm pretty sure that The Ship utilises its own engine.
