I have zero understanding whatsoever of Linux, so apologies if this is an idiotic question! I downloaded the latest release of Ren'py and attempted to run the renpy.sh file, but got the following:
Ren'Py platform files not found in:
/home/dextop/renpy-7.3.2-sdk/lib/linux-aarch64
Please compile the platform files using the instructions in README.md
or point them to an existing installation using ./after_checkout.sh <path>.
Alternatively, please set RENPY_PLATFORM to a different platform.
Is Ren'py not compatible with this version of linux, or am I just being an idiot? I have no idea how I'd go about recompiling anything. Thanks in advance!
It's running on a Samsung Tab S4, but Linux on there is only in beta at the moment, so I guess it's not a shock that it's not supported. Thanks for the reply, PyTom!
