I downloaded from this thread. Double clicked deb file to use built in software manager to install. I was able to get through the installer, log in, apply license, download updates/content. I then get to the main menu. I try to create a campaign using 5e, LAN, port 1802 and hit start. I get the loading window with "hamburger" icon and folder icon in the top left. But I never get to the FG desktop.

@Jiminimonka,

Where did you get those modules and/or images? Do they load on other OS versions of FGU?

Thanks,

Right clicking on the map and "Revert Changes" seems to fix that issue.

The module is my own, and so are the maps. But I appear to have fixed it - Revert Changes did it so must have been some tokens from combat tracker or something interfering. IDTenT user error.

The same module loaded into FGC with "altered" maps didn't throw this error and worked fine. In FGU the error also doesnt load the image, so tokens and markers are on a blank (or masked) map. (I have seperate drives for FGC and FGU Data folders, not sharing them).

I have a Linux system running Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS which is a variant of Ubuntu.

There are two issues that I have noted so far.
Neither is debilitating, merely a nuisance.

1) The scroll wheel operating in reverse in relation to Windows. This behavior is unique to FGU for Linux.
The version for Windows on my Win7 system operates as expected.

2) On both versions, Linux and Windows, FGU does not allow the Dice to be re-positioned within the work area.
Classic does allow Dice to be re-positioned anywhere within the main window and is not covered by a sub-window.

Thanks.

Welcome
Others have reported #1. It sound like its an issue in the Unity Engine itself. Hopefully there is a fix soon. #2 is as intended, that capability is not present in FGU.

The mousewheel issue is really bad actually. It works OK but in reverse on the launcher but not at all (at least to the human eye) in FGU. So no map zooming, no scroll down pages. The UI deisgn is highly reliant on the mousewheel, scroll bars are tiny or no existent on most UI elements so the mouse wheel is essential.

Still I've switch to FGU now.

cas206, I'm seeing the same thing. I've got a clean Ubuntu system (just bought the hardware yesterday) and I've not been able to get past that. I've tried both local and cloud/private.

The version is v4.0.0 STANDARD (2020-09-04). I've not moved move my GPU over yet, so I'm just using integrated graphics for now, but so far I've not seen anything which would tax that.

For me, the mouse wheel does not work at all, regardless of direction.

Thanks for confirming that it's not just my setup.

Addendum: Trying to load sample 5e campaign gives same result. Never gets to desktop.
