Thank you, it helped. Exactly as you wrote, there was missing whole bin folder with executable file.

Hello,
I bought SA DLC, and after installing it, the game doesn't recognize the SA expansion and force me to disable mod ElevatedRails primary. (and after that also the leftover SA mods). There is in log: Error ModManager.cpp:1738: Mod elevated-rails requires Space Age expansion.
and also: Error ...

So, command with chmod was doable, but still nothing happens, on terminal also nothing, command only finished. In directories still no log file. The same situation with version 2.0.9.

It's not possible to run that file from the terminal, it refuses it and says : command was not found.

Hello,
I have Linux Mint 18, x64. I updated Factorio from version 1.1.105 to 2.0.8, that passed ok, but after closing and restarting, nothing happened. I tried also standalone version 2.0.7 downloaded directly from Factorio server, after unzipping tar archives, game doesnt launch. Nothing happens ...
