Hi,
I've bought Natural Selection 2 on steam (i'm running linux) and i'm having some difficulties running the game.
When i try to run the game, a window is asking for me to optimize the game (nothing unusual), but, when i click on the window (to optmize), the game starts to optimize and when the message "Loading Map..." or something like that shows up the game crash, the crash (until now) has come to 3 different states:
-> one: just close the game with no error.
-> two: close the game with a error message called "Fatal Error" but inside the message i just got alot of squares, like [].
-> three: the game freezes and does not goes anywhere.
Oh, and if i click on Skip then try to open any map or game, the game have the same behavior.
I've search on the net and found anything about this problem, then, i've made all the things that NS2 Wiki says to do on a linux machine, the first thing there is to run the game then find the process that is running ns2, is for my surprise is two differente, i don't know why (i've tryied to killall ns2_linux32 and then relauch to make sure that steam is really launching two processes and it isn't and old one).
So, i've made a gdb from the two processes, for my surprise, this time the game just froze, then, the first process crashed and the second one is still running, the i've get de gdb of both and i will post all the logs here.
-> The NS2 log (found at /home/artur/.config/Natural Selection 2/): http://pastebin.com/7FBRm9uq
-> The gdb for the first process (6135), that close after the game freeze: http://pastebin.com/8Vzb8szS
-> The gdb for the second process (6154), that i have to kill manually: http://pastebin.com/vT34S1JM
-> The console output (on steam) while running the game (i was running steam from console): http://pastebin.com/cAgxW94r
And a screenshot of all consoles running after the game crash but before i kill the second process:

Some info about software:
Nvidia Proprietary Driver 331.20 installed.
Arch Linux x64 updated, with 32Bits compatibility lib.
Steam 32Bits (since there's no steam 64Bits for linux).
kernel Linux 3.12.2-1-ARCH
Desktop environment KDE 4.11.3
Some info about the hardware:
AMD Phenom II x6 1090T (3.2GHz), 4x2GB Corsair 1600MHz (DC Mode).
Asus GeForce GTX770 DirectCU II OC Edition 2GB GDDR5
My games (including natural selection) are installed on a 2TB Seagate SATA III disk (i have 5TB at total, 2x2TB and 2x500GB).
Nothing is overclocked, only the videocard has a factory overclock of 12MHz.
I have one LG Flatron screen of 23" and 1920x1080 resolution.
Sorry about my bad english, english isn't my native language. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it a lot
