Troubleshooting
- Missing library errors: install corresponding -dev or runtime packages (e.g., libsdl2-2.0-0).
- Crashes on startup: run from terminal to capture stderr, check for missing dependencies or permission issues.
- Multiplayer version mismatch: confirm all players and server use build 1449 multi9.
- Performance issues: try running with native GPU drivers and check shader/mono configurations.
- Installation: Download the
tModLoaderLinux binary from GitHub (v2024.06.1.1 or later). - Compatibility: Calamity Mod, Thorium, and Magic Storage are fully compatible with this build.
- Important Note: Do NOT mix modded assets from a Windows Proton install with the native build. The texture pack format differs slightly. Always use the native tModLoader found in
~/.local/share/Terraria/ModLoader.
