The game starts, but I have no mouse nor keyboard, seems it is not "focused". Tried on i3 and lxde, I tried to press "Alt+Tab". Any idea? Thanks
Edit: It now works but... no idea why! Edit2: Maybe I just waited the cinematic ends.
I had an issue with wrestool missing. I had to install icoutils for the build to complete.
Afterwards, I also had to install lib32-mpg123 and lib32-libpulse to have everything working.
lib32-mpg123 was necessary to have the mouse working properly lib32-libpulse was necessary to get the sound working.
Now, the game seems to be freezing my comp after some time, time to see what happens

Make sure to set 'user_allow_other' in /etc/fuse.conf
# echo user_allow_other >> /etc/fuse.conf"
@Martian I like the solution you proposed so I cherry-picked some of your changes.
@czert You most probably got this messages because you didn't add your username in "games" group and restarted your PC
I don't suggest anybody to run the game with sudo
P.S. I just got hit by the same issue and I was in a playful mood so I modified the version of bwrsandman with one using unionfs-fuse to make a 'rw' data branch of the game data in $HOME/.local/share/gog-heroes-of-might-and-magic-3-complete-edition. This should not require the user to be in "games" group or to reboot. Also I updated the version to 4.0.25024 as this was the only available in my GOG account for some reason.
