Hello,
I went under Linux recently.
I installed stream then baldur's gate. All function well.
However the game is not in French.
I find a mod "bg2eetrans-0.6.67.3.tar.gz" that translates this game.
But, this archive has a setup.exe.
I have browsed forums but I have not found linux type installation.
I know I can use "wine" but the game works directly under linux.
If someone has an idea. Thank you.

Je te conseille de poser la question de l’installation de ce mod de traduction directement à ses auteurs, sur le forum de La Couronne de Cuivre.

Question asked in another thread:
One question remains, I'm playing the game for month but I would like to customize the installation path to e.g /opt/games. Is there a posibility to do that. Maybe a line in the script?
 
You can do it with the --prefix option, an example would be:
./play-baldurs-gate-1.sh --prefix /opt/games
 
You can read more about this option by giving it "help" as an argument:
./play-baldurs-gate-1.sh --prefix help
--prefix=$path
--prefix $path

        Game installation path choice

        This option accepts an absolute path only.
        default path: /usr/local

After the dist-upgrade of the new Debian Stable I face this issue again "libGL.so.1 cannot open sdl...". Is there any kind of refresh to do? Some softlink which has to be "renewed" to fix it?

Thank you

What’s the game that’s giving you this issue?
I guess it is one of the Enhanced Edition games, but which one?

Hello vv221, it's Baldurs Gate 2, and yes it's Enhanced Edition ;-)

OK, can you give us the returns of the two following commands, so that we know which version you installed?
apt policy baldurs-gate-2-enhanced-edition
grep '# script generated by' /usr/local/games/baldurs-gate-2-enhanced-edition
