Missing a custom theme.
2 explanations.  You are on a machine without the custom theme, or you have an 
alternate Hedgewars config dir that you did not specify when launching the 
demo...

nope, this is something that I don't understand, because:

1) I created the demo with the same computer/hardware/hedgewars version
2) I can play it with no problems at all inside hedgewars
3) I do not have this Autumn_v1 theme in /usr/share/games/hedgewars/, neither 
in ~/.hedgewars

how do you explain this? shouldn't hwengine be able to be called also from 
outside, right?

Autumn v1 is one of Luelle's themes
It'll be in NewThemesByLuelle_v2.hwp probably.

But playing in hwengine vs playing in hedgewars itself strongly implies 
different paths.

Try hwengine --user-prefix "$HOME/.hedgewars"

Just verified exactly same behaviour over here w/ a luelle pack.
Unsurprising since cDefaultPathPrefix is defined in the engine from 
HEDGEWARS_FULL_DATADIR which is derived from cmake -DDATA_INSTALL_DIR= etc

However the user directory is not defined.

That said, when you use the "associate" button in the frontend which associates 
demos and saves with hwengine for use in file managers and browsers, it does 
add the user directory.
So, that should work just fine.
Running it otherwise does require adding that tho.

yes, I was using --prefix instead of --user-prefix...

it works, I'm wondering if a fallback into the user home is feasible or not...
anyway seems not a bug :)

thanks!
