Startup Issue with Counter-Strike 2 - counter strike 2 Instance wont run

Hi Tom,

Thanks for providing the logs. The error message we're interested in is this one:

Launcher Error: A CPU that supports the SSE4.2 instruction set is required.

The error means that your processor architecture doesn't support SSE4.2 instructions, which are required for running the game. As you're using a virtual machine (QEMU KVM), it's likely you'll need to enable these instructions in your virtual machine settings.

If your physical processor supports SSE4.2 but your virtual machine doesn't, you will need to reconfigure your VM to enable SSE4.2 support. If your physical processor does not support SSE4.2, I'm afraid you won't be able to run the game on this machine.
