Public bug reported:

There is a file that used to work for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS but in 14.04 LTS
and 14.10 it dont run which is a .Run format file at this website

https://unigine.com/products/valley/download/

its does the same to any other .Run format file, Done tryed the thing u go into propertys and tell it run as a program but still wont open normally it installed and ran through the terminal.
But when one tried to run it or open it, it only runs it like a .txt format and opens it as a gedit text format 
what this program is, it is a more Advance very graphical benchmarking too to test Graphics and FPS (frames per second) Counter to check see how fast one's computer is.
