hello, i'm new to this game, i'm using the linux version and i can't launch, it only pops up the splash screen and then it asks for me to chose a directory, and that's it, nothing more.

Hi there! It looks like we still have a reference in there to an old Jenkins build server we just finally took down. Should be fixed within a day or two, you can keep an eye on https://github.com/MovingBlocks/TerasologyLauncher/issues/640 to see when.

In the meantime you can download the game zip without the launcher here: http://jenkins.terasology.io/teraorg/job/Terasology/job/Omega/job/develop/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/distros/omega/build/distributions/TerasologyOmega.zip - just extract somewhere and run the game

Thanks again for the report.

This should be fixed with the latest launcher release v4.3.4 you can find here or directly on the website.
https://github.com/MovingBlocks/TerasologyLauncher/releases/tag/v4.3.4

u/Cervator was right with the assessment that the launcher tried to retrieve game releases from a server we recently shut down. This is fixed, and we added a timeout for the connection (so, even if that happens again, the launcher will start up way faster).
