    use these commands.
    # chmod a+x filename
    # ./filename
    I guess "PlaneShift-v0.4.03-x86.bin" should be the filename.
    Never make any misteaks.

    I tried that, it said it couldn't find it, it is a torrent file if that helps.

    Is that a torrent root file to download package using torrent client or a PlaneShift package downloaded through torrent client?
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Alright ! As b2bwild suggested already, open Terminal and navigate to folder having PlaneShift-v0.4.03-x86.bin, execute chmod command.
    Let say, that file is on Desktop.

    Code:
    cd ~/Desktop 
chmod +x PlaneShift-v0.4.03-x86.bin
./PlaneShift-v0.4.03-x86.bin
    Post output here.

    * Type Plane and hit TAB key twice. If file exits in that location, filename will be auto complete by shell. Linux is case sensitive. Take care if Lowercase and uppercase alphabets in filenames.
