Renowned Explorers: International Society
Tested with version renowned_explorers_international_society_522_26056.sh from gog.com. It can be played with steam-run, but it needs some libraries that are not normally included in Steam's FHS environment. One way to solve this is to add an overlay:
nixpkgs.overlays = [
(self: super: {
steam-run = (super.steam.override {
extraLibraries = pkgs: with pkgs;
[
libxkbcommon
mesa
wayland
(sndio.overrideAttrs (old: {
postFixup = old.postFixup + ''
ln -s $out/lib/libsndio.so $out/lib/libsndio.so.6.1
'';
}))
];
}).run;
})
];
Adding libxkbcommon, mesa, and wayland is straightforward. The game expects the shared library sdnio.so.6.1 to exist, so we need to create a symbolic link after the installation of sndio.
