installed BattleTech Sept 6 2020... have not tried to run it until now only to be met with a fullscreen black screen with some audio playing... wanted to switch to windowed mode at 1920x1080 to see if that helped but can't find the config file to edit so started digging through similar problem report via google... have applied "-force-glcore" with no change... also moved libSDL2-2.0.so.0, libasound.so.2, libc.so.6, libopenal.so.1, and libsndio.so.6.1 out of the BattleTech_Data/Plugins/x86_64 directory with no change... following the next step, i did validate the files and the 5 i moved out got pulled back in with identical named and sized ones... according to steam, i've spent 47 minutes in-game but it has all been nothing but the fullscreen black screen with some audio playing while i have tried to find a solution to this problem...
