I'm running Ubuntu 17.04. I haven't played since a couple of weeks after launch, when the game was working fine. I can open the launcher(from steam) just fine, but whenever i try the resume or play button to start the game, the launcher just closes without starting imperator.

I tried launching the imperator binary from /common/ImperatorRome/binaries/ on a terminal and it gives me the following error:

./imperator: error while loading shared libraries: libc++abi.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Anyone know where I can go from here?

Code:
Sudo apt-get install libc++-7-dev
 
Thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately I get
Code:
E: Unable to locate package libc++-7-dev
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libc++-7-dev'

When I try to run that. I also tried downloading it from https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/libc++-dev/download but I'm not sure its the correct thing because it doesn't make a difference.
Try to install at least something similar
Code:
sudo apt-get install libc++
libc++1          libc++-7-dev     libc++abi1-7     libc++abi-8-dev  libc++-dev
libc++1-7        libc++-8-dev     libc++abi1-8     libc++abi-dev    libc++-helpers
libc++1-8        libc++abi1       libc++abi-7-dev  libc++abi-test   libc++-test
 
I have the same Problem on Linux Mint 19.1
./imperator: error while loading shared libraries: libc++abi.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I will try to install libc++

edit: after installing 'libc++-7-dev' i can run the game from the launcher again. Thanks Ujin.

Cicero update : the launcher is still broken.
Nevertheless the following bypass works : Add LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libc.so.6 %command% in the steam launching options.
