Crash after please wait screen

just like this #422

im using both a Pi5 running debian bookworm 12.
and a Pi4 running retropie-buster
when i run ./fallout2-ce the screen just goes dark and i have to kill the PI to break out of it
I have also tried using xinit and i get the same thing.

here is what i can get before the pi locks

its odd since i know when i first made the script it was working great and i tested it again in april last year and it was working 
i also when back a tried older commits and i still get the same thing 

Fallout 1 works fine, there is a few small screen issues during the intro but thats it.

Can it be something because of case-sensitive file system or backslashes in config files? Did you try other game distributions, for example mods like Nevada or Sonora?
You can also try to run this version https://github.com/fallout2-ce/fallout2-ce , maybe that particular issue is already solved there

it should not be, nothing has changed other then updates to the OS on the backend. My script makes the config file so the user doesn't have to mess with that.

ill take a look at the fork you posted.
