Blank launcher screen on startup?

[ri13yj]

I am playing on a mac and whenever I click the launch button in the launcher the window turns white and blank. I have tried restarting my computer and reinstalling starmade multiple times to no avail, does anyone have a solution?

Does the launcher turn white and blank when you press the "LAUNCH" button, or does the game start up and go white?

White and blank when I press the launch button.

Are you playing StarMade with Steam, or not?

 

[ri13yj]

I am currently not using the steam version.

Same pb here, yesterday all was fine... I use starmade with steam and the last launcher. Anyone have an idea ?
[doublepost=1489191921,1489190145][/doublepost]Pb diseapper with a reboot... just a bug ?

Edit : Same player shoot again... blank screen after launbch is come back ! (and don't see anymore in the launcher.log)

Edit 2 : game started with the old launcher (but crash)... but not with the last launcher. Don't understand why, no recent update have done on it... confusing...

Edit 3 : re-installing the game...

Edit 4 : same problem. Annoying...

That looks slighlty weird in the logfile

Adapter: null
Driver Version: null
Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL Version: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 378.78
Renderer: GeForce GTX 970/PCIe/SSE2

as if the game cant find something there ??
did you lately change or update the NV GPU drivers ?
if so reinstall them fresh maybe
and did you reinstall the game by using the brower to overwrite every file ?

Thx for your sugestion.
I take the pb by the end.
_ Try to re-install SM with your advice : not good, same pb (blank screen after launch).
_ Rollback the NV driver (last one 378.78 to 376.33)
_ reboot my computer (oh, sound resume !)
_ Start SM... holy shit, same pb... I'm not bad to understand some pb, but, on this one, really out.

Don't waste your time with this, and thx for your help, let me forget SM :p

hmmm ... weird

open the settings.cfg file with notepad and change the following line accordingly

PLAY_INTRO = false //Play Intro

then try again and see if it gets further in the logfile (or maybe starts the game)

Huhu ^^

_ Change Java to the 64 bits version, and use it in the option in pre-launcher.
_ Launch the game... IT WORKS !
_ Close all, try again... IT DOESN'T WORKS ! Why just one time ?!?
_ Make your change in settings.cfg... same pb.
Attached the log... try to restart my computer and tell what...
Edit : can't attach a file... I'm a lucky man, really. Here to pastebin.

Please create a new separate directory and extract the new launcher in it.
Example: C:\Starmade

Now tell the launcher to install the game to C:\Starmade too
it will then setup an installation in C:\Starmade\StarMade

Now try to start the game.

Send us the launcher.log file from C:\Starmade
and the logstarmade.0.log from C:\Starmade\StarMade\logs

Will look into the process and possible system problems then.
