The recently committed (and awesome) openrct2 built correctly,
but cannot currently find the needed language and shader files
for the game and therefore crashes. To make it work, I currently
have to invoke it via a command like
`--openrct-data-path=/gnu/store/<hash>-openrct2-0.1.1/share/openrct2/',
which imho is not optimal.

I dove into the source of openrct, and it seems there are still
some vestiges of the cmake flag we want, namely
ORCT2_RESOURCE_DIR. Sadly, support for configuring this variable
seems to have been removed about 4 months ago.

I opened an issue upstream regarding this[1], but maybe there is
an easy workaround we can use until a fix is hopefully released.
I was thinking of either a phase which calls `wrap-program', or
adding the required flag back via a short snippet.

p.s. Besides these rather small issues, I can confirm that OpenRCT2
works.

Are you talking about the game assets, or is it something different?

(Did you see the discussion at
<https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=28794#8>?)

Cheers,

Hi Ludo,

No, I am talking about resources such as shaders and
language packs, which seem to be included in openrct2 itself.
IOW, even *with* the data files from the proprietary rct2, our current
openrct2
does not run without the command line flags I added to my first posting :-).

Cheers,
Jelle

Oh, I see.  Rutger, does that ring a bell?

Hi Ludo and Jelle, 

I've attached a patch that fixed the issue for me by changing some
references from /usr/share to /gnu/store/<hash>-openrct2-0.1.1/share.
I can now run openrct2 without the additional parameter.
