Issue with RUNNING Need for Speed Most Wanted Black Edition [Fixed... I think]

Hi, so I was trying to install the game. I’m using the files from MyAbandonware and the installer for the Black Edition. When the installation process started, I got this line:

/usr/bin/chmod: cannot access ‘/home/todor/.cache/lutris/installer/need-for-speed-most-wanted/install’: No such file or directory

And then the installer stops. What’s happening? Please help!

Edit: Solved. The solution turns out to have been much simpler than I thought it would be. I created an empty folder called “install” in the place it was missing and that was that. Honestly kind of pissed how stupid simple a solution this is but anyways.

Edit 2: After resolving the original issue, i.e. installing the game, I then tried running it and it refuses. Here’s the crash log:

According to it, there’s some variable in the executable that’s fucked up. Or at least that’s what I’ve been able to parse. I don’t know jack about coding.

Edit 3: Just tried running the game randomly and… it works? I have no idea why. I had restarted my computer a couple of times before now. Was that what fixed it? I genuinely have no fucking clue. Whatever, problem solved, I guess.
