the problem is that you don't set the rights for /opt/tibia anymore, so the selfupdate of the launcher fails in this directory, not in the home ...

Hey ZeusesBeard,
I have noticed when Tibia updates it bricks the install. To fix this, i copied over the Tibia install in /opt/tibia with the updated tibia install direct from tibia's website
Unfortunately, there is no way for me to control this. We don't want to be messing around with the user's home directory, so once Tibia updates, we are left with this problem. I am not sure if there is another way of solving this.

Hi, ZeusesBeard.
Can the game be installed inside the home directory?
Not as a package tracked by pacman. It is an absolute no go to touch or place files in $HOME.

Can the game be installed inside the home directory? It looks like when there is an update the game tries to update itself, but cannot as it does not have root privileges and being installed in /opt means it is owned by root. You can download the newest release from tibias website and cp it over the install in /opt to also fix it

I've made some changes to this packages, and hopefully this works for everyone. I've added a few optional dependencies which namcap raised and changed how we deal with installing the package.

Tibia no longer ships the package with the start-tibia-launcher.sh, which breaks this package. Here's the updated version:

Is it possible to add ttf-ms-fonts as dependency? it turns the UI smoother https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ttf-ms-fonts

Theres a bug when click in spell list and trade with npcs unable to buy something or check the spell list. The bug occurs also in any word clickable on NPCS. It opens and close quickly. Please fix this bugs.

@lukinhasb, regarding the client you downloaded from the Tibia website, try removing some temp files: /tmp/qipc_sharedmemory_* . This worked for me and I was able to start the application again.
