Unable to download 7d2d server on 32Bit Linux

I wish to run a server on a 32 bit linux machine, however steamcmd refuses to download the server. According to the FAQ there are minimum requirements for 32bit servers, which suggests that they exist.

Code: 
#! /usr/bin/bash

STEAMPATH="/opt/steamcmd/linux32"
STEAMUSER="FalcoGerServer"
STEAMPASS="*********"
GAMEPATH="/opt/steamcmd/7d2d/"
GAMEID="294420"

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/steamcmd/linux32/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" "$STEAMPATH/steamcmd" +login "$STEAMUSER" "$STEAMPASS" +force_install_dir "$GAMEPATH" +"app_update $GAMEID validate" +quit


Code:

Afaik, 32 bit support was removed in A18. Can you upgrade the computer to a 64 bit os?

Alpha 15 actually. 

Will need to upgrade the server OS to 64-bit, or stick with the older versions.

If the server cannot be upgraded to 64-bit because of the hardware, then the system is very likely not capable of running the current version anyway.

 
Actually I'm running a 64bit OS.

The issue is a bit more complicated.

I'm running box86/box64 on a raspberry pi4 (arm64) with Ubuntu 20.04 64 bit.

Code: 
steam(pi):~>./run_steamcmd.sh
Box86 with Dynarec v0.2.3 c04aeec3 built on Aug 23 2021 19:56:33

I don't know how steamcmd determines that the machine is 32 bit, but steamcmd itself is a 32bit application, which is ridiculous, by the way. So it's emulated/dynamically recompiled with box86, which of course loads the 32bit libc for armhf (the 32 bit arm architecture).




My best guess is that steamcmd checks for amd64 and x86_64 in the architecture and concludes that way that it's a supported 64 bit operating system, otherwise it assumes it's 32 bit.

 
Testing it now. I'll update here.

Update:

It's started. I ran the default serverconfig.xml.

Trying to connect gives me "Server still initializing."

I'll wait a few minutes. Nothing seems to be happening.

Update 2:

Checked the logs.

Code: 
206729|0x64911f20: Unimplemented Opcode (91) 82 04 80 D2 EF FF FF 17 61 14 00 B0 21 00 39



after about 5 minutes after startup. Then segfault.
