Dear fellow Linux users,
I have recently installed ET on Linux but i'm running into a problem when loading mods.
For some reason the game seems to be copying the 'etmain' *.so files to the directory of my mod, over-writing any which the mod wants to load. All other files are unaffected (so menus work for example).
Example from console:
copy /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/etmain/ui.mp.i386.so to /home/ethr/.etwolf/etpro/ui.mp.i386.so
Sys_LoadDll(/home/ethr/.etwolf/etpro/ui.mp.i386.so)... ok
Sys_LoadDll(ui) found **vmMain** at 0xe728bf40
Sys_LoadDll(ui) succeeded!
]/quit
This happens as soon as the mod is loaded.
Does anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it?
thanks

Edit
Sorta fixed...I applied the version fix and I can connect to ETPro servers with out any apparent issues. Its still strange behaviour though.

this is *mine* I don't know if your version is the same, but it should be for 2.60b
the game copies etmain if the software thinks the version is not right
remember to copy back the original .so from etpro pk3 after you fix it, if you still have etmain ones
cant really understand why ET would want to do what it does in your case anyway, are you injecting anything? (like a bot or smth)
i found the same thing happens if you have a pk3 with no *so files in it but i dont think that is related
I never ever had any bot installed on my hd (my motto is better low than cheater :p), yet I had that problem on Linux (and I fixed it as I wrote above)
