Still Can't Play 0.9.23 Because of Error 217
This wasn't supposed to be a rant, but it ended up being one anyway. I have a question for the devs:
How frustrating is it that the blame gets shifted to you when this game becomes unplayable?
I mean, I have made this account solely for reporting that I've been receiving Error 217. The reply I got was somewhere along the lines of "You've got an outdated libphysfs.". I saw a somewhat related problem on this thread, so I think I understand what's going on.
This basically meant that you're receiving flak over a problem that isn't even your fault. How do you handle this kind of situation?
I'm already aware that I have two basic options:
1. Wait for the Debian/Ubuntu Maintainers to update the (Xenial) deb files; only Bionic Beaver is updated.
2. Build the game myself.
End rant.
I think I had similar problem, and for me, upgrading to Debian 8 helped.

Please try the builds in Locutus of Borg's PPA, linked off our download page.
He's attempting to address, I think by building with our copy of physfs... See if it helps.

Ah, yes. I have been watching Locutus' PPAs for a while, actually. Gonna download the latest and I'll report.
Hello! The game still shares the same error on my machine. I forgot where my preview0 file went, but here's the game0 log:
I apologize that people like me are making you guys do extra work these holiday seasons.
Huh... The log seriously stops right there? Nothing more?
That's odd since there's an "ok" to the load of 2 images.
The very next log line is:
0: [Con] Getting game config...
Which happens after loading the localisation....
The localisation asserts might not be going to the log though. Hm...
Do you mind terribly doing:
ldd `which hwengine`
? (just to see what it is actually loading against)
Also, try running:
hwengine test.53.hwd
Against http://m8y.org/hw/test.53.hwd
And send me the output of stderr too..

@nemo
I think I need a lot of spoon-feeding of what to do when it comes to what you're saying. I think I have to follow the instructions on the Support thread regarding test.53.hwd.
Anyway, I just found out that preview0 doesn't appear when I start a "Quick Game". Here's are the log files when I was trying to start a Normal Game.
game0
preview0
Run:
cd /tmp
wget http://m8y.org/hw/test.53.hwd
HOME=/tmp /usr/lib/hedgewars/bin/hwengine test.53.hwd &> output.log
==========================================================
Then send me /tmp/output.log and /tmp/Logs/game0.log
The HOME=/tmp is just to test with a clean ~/.hedgewars ...

Took me a while, but here's what I got:
