As far as I know you are the only one reporting this issue so far, but I could be wrong
This affects everyone using a 600 series or newer nvidia GPU on Linux(sorry, just discovered the thread as I don't frequent the XR forums). nVidia's shader compiler became more strict over time and this issue is obviously just a typo which older versions of the shader compiler let slip which is why nobody noticed until nvidia got more strict,(pre-600 series gpus are only supported by a driver package where the shader compiler is still more lenient). It's just that there are very few people still playing Rebirth while using this forum.

Thanks. The devs have acknowledged the issue and will seek to correct it in any future XR update or hotfix.

If the X rebirth demo version doesn't work then you can even expect it from the purchase version. How to get shaders working.

Demo version.

A fatal error has occurred and X cannot recover:
Shader::Compile(tag.f) '0(610) : error C0151: EOF inside comment'
Version: 4.00 - Code revision: 208346
Please inform EGOSOFT GmbH technical support.

Using Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS Nvidia GTX 770, 470.103.01 drivers. 8 gb ram (8 gb swap)
by the way: X4 foundation 4.20 version working, it has some bugs. But working.

test log say ERROR: ld.so: object '~/.steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

Two years have passed, and this bug is still there. No, thats not an incomplete file: its an error in shader file: viewtopic.php?p=4979651#p4979651. There are even a patch in subsequent comments.

I only noticed it yesterday for the Steam version: My joysticks didn't show up any more. It worked just fine before and I still have a valid keymapping config from the last time.

I disabled Steam Controllers (Input) for this game via override and all started showing up again. I guess Steam made a virtual gamepad out of it (AGAIN :evil: ) hiding the real thing resulting in zero found joysticks.

Note: "Real" joysticks as in with plenty of buttons, not gamepad controllers or something.
