Hi, I am unable to start the game. I am running Linux Mint 20, and whenever I try to boot up the game it always ends up crashing. Is there any way to fix this?.

Do you get any output from Terminal when executing the path to the executable?

Hi, follow these steps:

1) install openjdk8

sudo apt update
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk

2) Open the game directory and delete the "TalesOfAndrogyny" file

3) open a text editor (gedit, xed), paste this code into it and save the file in the game directory as "TalesOfAndrogyny" (without extension)

#!/bin/bash
ARCH=$(arch)
JAVAAMD64=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
JAVAI386=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/java
if [ "$ARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then
    if test -f "$JAVAAMD64"; then
            /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java -jar ./TalesOfAndrogyny.jar
        else
            notify-send "Please install the openjdk-8-jdk package."
    fi
fi
if [ "$ARCH" = "i386" ]; then
    if test -f "$JAVAI386"; then
            /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/java -jar ./TalesOfAndrogyny.jar
        else
            notify-send "Please install the openjdk-8-jdk package."
    fi
fi

4) Find permissions in the file properties (TalesOfAndrogyny) and check "executable file"

Thank you!

New location as you need to update with version:

sudo apt install openjdk-17-jdk

And in code snippet new Java location will be:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-21-openjdk-amd64/bin/java

That need to change out:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-i386/jre/bin/java

 In the orginal fixe.
