Jun 22, 2018 So I was searching for this fix myself and found many old links that didn't work, including someone claiming the Origin version of Sim City 4 Deluxe could not work widescreen with custom resolution. While the Origin client does offer a built in way to add additional command line arguments it.

Alright, I have ran searches throughout this forum and come up with mixed results all over about attempting to install old Loki games and running into glibc issues. None of these threads have really helped me at all and are just really confusing. This link seems to have the closest thing to an answer for what I am trying to do, but I still have no idea what it is talking about; plus, it is for gentoo and i don't know if the command syntax should be different.

I am attempting to install Simcity 3000 Unlimited. when i mount it and run
sh setup.sh
in the working directory, i get
This installation doesn't support glibc-2.1 on Linux / x86
Please contact Loki Technical Support at [email protected]
So, apparently I need to trick the system into using an old version of glibc with 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'...? I heard mentions of using 'LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.26' to run it as an old kernel version.
I thought myself to be fairly competent with Linux but it is just one of those annoying things about Linux that if you are infamiliar with a command, then you are totally screwed unless there are some ubuntu-gurus around to help out. So, if anyone can shed some light on LD_ASSUME_KERNEL or let me know if that's even the right way to go about this, then please let me know.
