Thanks @tx00100xt. Unfortunately the screenshot shows only a black screen. Does this application work when there is no internet connection?

[tx00100xt]

No internet connection needed. AppImage works without it. Instead of a black window there should be a window like this:

I added a patch that creates a SDL2 window if there is no game data. If there is game data, the game starts. https://github.com/tx00100xt/dhewm3-appimage/blob/main/patches/0001-dhewm3-AppImage.patch On the live DVD(ubuntu-18.04.6-desktop-amd64.iso )the window is displayed correctly:

appimage_livedvd_test.webm

appimage_without_internet_test.webm

Screenshots are also in the metainfo files. https://github.com/tx00100xt/dhewm3-appimage/blob/main/AppDir/usr/share/metainfo/org.dhewm3.Dhewm3.appdata.xml Github Аction recognized them: https://github.com/AppImage/appimage.github.io/actions/runs/8030743687/job/21938371983?pr=3318#step:5:917

Our test on the headless server just shows:

Since this is a game, maybe it needs some fancy GPU?

Hello.

No. A regular VirtualBox adapter is enough. I assume that your system may not always take the right screenshots. On any real hardware, VirtualBox or VMware will have the image shown above.

Thanks for letting me know. It is very well possible that this is an issue with the test itself, but at the moment I don't know how to fix it.
