Make sure that the i386 architecture is enabled for you, as libopenal1 requires the 32-bit version, and Ubuntu does not enable 32-bit support by default.
To patch your copy of (Windows) AM2R v1.1, place the `AM2R_11.zip` (case-sensitive) file in the same folder as `patcher.py`. After installing the required dependencies for the version you would like to patch to, execute `patcher.py` via `python patcher.py`.
During the installation you will be asked, if you want to patch it for Linux or Android. Press the corresponding number for that.
## After patching
Navigate to the newly created folder.
If you have other questions/issues, please open an issue, post to [r/AM2R](https://www.reddit.com/r/AM2R/), or join the [Official AM2R Discord Server](https://discord.gg/YTQnkAJ).
## Android installation instructions
You will need an Android device with a file explorer application installed, and a USB cable to connect said device to your computer.
1. Enable installation of apps from third party sources on your Android device. The location of this setting varies from device to device; our example device has it under the Security Settings, but some may place it under Application Settings or another location.
The option is usually called "Unknown Sources" and may need to be searched for.
2. Connect your phone to your computer with the USB cable. Select "Media Transfer" on the popup window displayed on your Android device.
3. Mount your phone (either via a file manager or via a terminal), and go to where it's mounted.
Move `AndroidM2R_1X_X-signed.apk` to a location such as the Downloads folder of the Android device.
4. Disconnect the Android device, and open the device's file explorer app. Locate and open `AndroidM2R_1X_X-signed.apk`.
This should prompt you to install the application; after this point it should behave like any other app.
If for some reason, you are not able to access your phone, you can use the adb (android-debug-bridge) instead:
1. On your phone, make sure, that developer options are enabled. If they aren't move to the `About Phone` section, search for your build number, and click on it 7 times.
2. Plug in your phone via a USB-cable, go to the developer settings, enable the `USB Debugging` option and trust your Computer.
3. Install the adb package. The name is different from distro to distro, so search your local package manager for `adb` or `android-tools`.
4. Open a terminal and type `adb devices`. This should show your phone. If it does, type `adb install [path-to-apk]`.
## Manual installation
This section, is if you don't like appimages, or want to run the game natively. Unless you have a very good reason for it, please use the AppImage instead!
### Dependencies
As said above, these dependencies are **only** needed if you want to run the game natively.
Make sure that multilib is enabled, as this is a 32-bit application and Arch does not do so by default.
To enable it, go to `/etc/pacman.conf`, search for `[multilib]`, and make sure that both this and the next line are uncommented. After that, install the following packages:
On newer versions (Debian 10+ or Ubuntu 18+) you may have to do the below command instead. Please make sure first, that you neither have `libcurl3` nor `libcurl4` installed.
If you cannot run AM2R after installing the packages, use `ldd` in order to find out which packages are missing.
After patching, if you want to launch AM2R via command line, make sure to do it like this: `env "LD_PRELOAD=libcurl.so.3" ./AM2R`.
However, there is also a .desktop file with the above command included (this one has the AM2R logo). You can just double click on that in order to start the game.
