Hey, once i downloaded Nexiuz i open it and it says " You have reached this menu due to missing or unlocatable Data, You may consider adding -basedir/path/to/game to your launch commandline" What should i do?

Where have you downloaded it from?
Which os do you use?
How do you extract it?

It should like nexuiz(.exe/.sh) and data folder at the same level. dataDATE.pk3 inside data folder.

Yup, I have the exact same problem on my Fedora computer.
I downloaded it from the Nexuiz site, unpacked and ran the game. There is a data folder and inside it the whole game content is located (data20080511.pk3).

I think someone told me the solution however, I forgot it .

Anyway, specs of the computer:
Fedora 9
GeForce 4 Ti 4800 (or something, at least it's GeForce 4 Ti).

The drivers are NOT the latest, I don't even know if I have any installed. I never got around to do that :p I will as soon as the update finishes.

Just giving some info of this, I'll be switching to Ubuntu soon enough.

EDIT: Oh by the way, adding -basedir path-to-game did not work.

I'll be switching to Ubuntu soon enough.

May I suggest LinuxMint instead? It's an Ubuntu fork, thus compatible to its packages/repositories/whatever, but seems to be a little more polished than its big brother.

Thanks, after reading a bit about it I might as well try it.
I have tried many distros, and this one will be a treat to try, hopefully

I downloaded it from the link from the website.
os, no idea
Extract it? just Right clicked zipped file, and selected Extract

OS - operating system, probably windows based on your explanation.
Create a shortcut to nexuiz.exe, then properties and in target field add -basedir C:\Nexuiz, where C:\Nexuiz is the place where you've extracted Nexuiz.

Target field should look similar to this:

Code: Select all

nexuiz.exe -basedir C:\Nexuiz

Check that the data folder is named correctly as data too. As well, that you've downloaded full version and not a patch.
