    Hey all, I started to play the game today after i finally managed to get it installed. Now when i play, if i press tab and after that a key i get the following message:
    Error: exceptions.TypeError.len() of unsized object

    Is there anyway to get rid of it?
    Grtz T. W.

      Hello!

      I often hear that the game is not easy to install. What is the reason? Is some documentation missing or are simply the many libraries the problem?

      Concerning the exception:
      And can you give me some more lines of the exception? (The traceback is very important)
      If you have got the current dev version (http://secretstar.de/stuff/reality-python_1.1.0_dev.tar.gz), there should also be some information in the file "output.txt".

      Well i know what the problem is.
      With the files u compile with ld using:
      -lGL -lX11 -lGLX etc. use a -L/usr/X11R6/lib
      i had to copy the libraries from my X11R6 to /usr/lib before it worked. so include -L before the -lGL -lGLX -lGLU etc and it would have less problems.

        Hmm, sorry, but those libs are not linked at all.
        I link a dynamic library, so it is only linked against libc and ld-linux. You have to adjust /etc/ld.so.conf so that ld.so searches your X11 directories.
