Game suddenly stuck at menu screen (went away on its own) - banano - 08-18-2026 Hey, this morning while mapping and opening xon in between builds, i noticed that the game was stuck at the menu screen after loading. The menu GUI elements themselves (singleplayer/multiplayer/settings) do not load, and the window becomes unresponsive (to close, I have to wait for the 'not responding' prompt or kill the process. When starting from console, Ctrl+C  doesn't exit the game. The problem started this morning, now every time i try to start the game it freezes like this. Things i've tried, to no effect: move my .xonotic folder re-download the game and launch from newly unzipped download reboot run different executables (linux-sdl, linux-glx, even the windows exe with Wine) Since this problem happened in the middle of mapping, a software update has likely not caused this. My system: Fedora Linux 44 with XFCE Running Xonotic 0.8.6 pre-built, downloaded from the website: https://dl.xonotic.org/xonotic-0.8.6.zip Console output of running the game: https://pastebin.com/raw/gs62j1dF journalctl output while the game was running ($ ./xonotic-linux-sdl.sh): https://pastebin.com/raw/AdtkidFq Thanks RE: Game suddenly stuck at menu screen - banano - 08-18-2026 I tried running the game now, and the problem suddenly went away and I can play. means i don't exactly NEED HELP anymore but i dunno about marking thread as SOLVED
