Game crashes after player init

[Wildflower_aka_Sandie]

Three days ago, I played early in the morning with no problems, when I tried after lunch, the game keep crashing, this is both old saves and with a completely new game.
I have no mods installed and verifying game files does not solve the problem.

 

I have the game on running Linux (Debian 11)

This is in singleplayer
I have Nvidia Graphics
I have more than 2000 hours in game and have never had problems before

 

This snippet from the log-file makes me think it is mono related:
"Got a SIGSEGV while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries
used by your application."

 

I can post the full log-file if needed?

 

Tried asking on the Steam-7dtd-forum, but apparently no-one reads them, other than other players with the same problem?

I got this fix from Grim42 on the Steam-7dtd-forum:

 

start steam (if not running)

open a terminal

cd (steam library)/steamapps/common/7 Days To Die

bash ./7DaysToDie.sh

Same problem here. I use Linux Mint. After a Steam update 7 Days to Die won't launch anymore.

The commands for me would be:
 

cd ".steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/7 Days To Die/"


bash ./7DaysToDie.sh 

 

This can't works because "7DaysToDie.sh" is missing in this directory.

Don't know if Mint keep steam in the same folder as Debian11

 

If you open steam and right-click on 7dtd, select manage/browse local files

this is where your 7DaysToDie.sh should be located

My bad, it's works. 7 Days to die was installed with windows files on my Linux.
I have installed it correctly and run the command.

Thanks for your help. 7 Days To Die still crash but i use the script below to launch the game from my desktop. So it's not that bad.

I am on Linux Mint 20.3. Updating to 21.2 broke too many things so i prefer keeping 20.3.
 

#!/bin/sh

#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
#export MALLOC_CHECK_=0
cd ".steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/7 Days To Die/"
./7dLauncher.x86_64 $@
