NAME

       arx - Arx Libertatis, a cross-platform port of Arx Fatalis


SYNOPSIS

       arx [-hnl] [-d data-dir] [-u user-dir] [-c config-dir] [-g debug-spec]


DESCRIPTION

       arx is the main executable of Arx Libertatis, a cross-platform port of
       the first-person role-playing game Arx Fatalis. You will need the data
       from the original Arx Fatalis to run the game. See
       http://arx.vg/Getting_the_game_data.


OPTIONS SUMMARY

       Here is a short summary of the options available in innoextract. Please
       refer to the detailed  documentation below for a complete description.

       Generic options:
               -h --help            Show supported options
               -g --debug LEVELS    Set debug output levels

       Search path options:
               -n --no-data-dir     Don't automatically detect data directories
               -d --data-dir DIR    Where to find the data files (can be repeated)
               -u --user-dir DIR    Where to store user-specific files
               -c --config-dir DIR  Where to store config files
               -l --list-dirs       List the searched user and data directories


OPTIONS

       -c, --config-dir=DIR
              By default arx will store configuration files in directories
              specified by the XDG Base Directory Specification.  This option
              overrides the directory where config files are loaded from and
              saved to.

       -d, --data-dir=DIR
              Arx Libertatis will look for data files in directories specified
              by the XDG Base Directory Specification and in the directory
              containing the game executable. Besides the system-wide data
              directory, data files are also loaded from the user directory,
              which can be set by the --user-dir option.

              This option adds additional directories to search for data files
              before the detected system-wide directories, but after the user
              directory. To override the detected data directories combine it
              with the --no-data-dir option.

              The --data-dir option can be repeated to add multiple data
              directories, in which case they are searched in the order
              provided.

              See http://arx.vg/Data_directories and the --list-dirs output
              for more details.

       -g, --debug=LEVELS
              This option can be used to enable debug output for debug builds
              of Arx Libertatis. For non-debug build, this option is not very
              useful but recognized for convenience.

       -h, --help
              Show a list of the supported options.

       -l, --list-dirs
              Show the data, user and config search directories and how they
              were determined. To adjust the search directories, use the --no-
              data-dir, --data-dir, --user-dir and --config-dir options.

       -n, --no-data-dir
              Disables looking for default data directories. Default user and
              config directories and data directories provided using the
              --data-dir option are still searched. This option can be used
              for portable setups where user, config and data files are all in
              the current directory:

              arx --no-data-dir --user-dir=. --config-dir=.

       -u, --user-dir=DIR
              By default arx will store user files (saves, etc.) in
              directories specified by the XDG Base Directory Specification.
              This option overrides the directory where user files are loaded
              from and saved to.

              Configuration files are not stored in the user directory, but in
              a separate directory that can be set by the --user-dir option.

              The user directory will also be used to load data, overwriting
              resources from the system-wide data directories amd from
              directories specified by the --data-dir option.
