Hello, I'm new to this forum so I don't know where to post this, exactly. I'm playing Jedi Academy on an Arch Linux 32-bit ultrabook, through Steam and Wine, so I expected a couple bumps along the road.
HOWEVER I was experiencing constant crashing when I faced enemy Sith - arguably the best experience in JA . The crashes were not prohibitive - they happened rarely during the fights, which meant I could save scum through the duels. It also crashed more often against the green cultists. However, running the openjk_sp.i386 from the terminal, I noticed it always crashed with a floating point exception. So I run the game with valgrind, activated god mode, and stood still facing a orange and a green cultist, until the game crashes and valgrind outputs to me:

So the game has a division-by-zero on the Force Throw method that's crashing for me. I would like to notify the developers, and also to know if anyone else had this problem and solved it. Thanks!
