Solved: 8 Years, 2 Months, 1 Week ago RE: Penumbra: Overture - Segfault near the end

Changing the permissions of the entire installation directory structure didn't help ( chmod u+rw -R <install dir> ), however, I remembered that the game was originally installed on a different home directory than the one it currently resides in. At the time I just copied it over from /home/olduser/opt/PenumbraOverture to /home/newuser/opt/PenumbraOverture. Removing the directory and re-installing the game on the new location worked.

Maybe the installation location is somehow hard coded somewhere when it's installed, and in this particular spot in the game it's trying to read/write something in a location that doesn't exist anymore? It's odd because I played through the entire game just fine up until this point.

Anyway, it's solved now, thanks for the pointer!
