Can't run game after 0.199.472

[TechECoyote]

After coming back to Starmade after a work induced break, I find that the world will not load. The game tries to load and crashes at 100%. After some trial and error (updating drivers, java, etc.) I find that the game runs fine up to 0.199.472. Every build after will not load the world. I think it may be an open GL issue (in which case I'm screwed), but I want to be sure.

For clarification: The game runs smoothly on the older build (at low settings and away from planets), but will not load on the new builds. I am running this on a Laptop that is 5+ years old at this point. I have tried to get a crash report, but I can't quite figure it out.

Specs:
Windows 10 x64
Intel i5 - 2450M @ 2.5 GHz Quadcore
6GB Ram
Intel (R) HD Graphics 3000 (yay, integrated GPUs...)
All drivers and plugins are up to date and working.

Is there any chance for me, or am I too outdated? While I am willing to keep playing at this level, I was looking forward to the new power update.

It may be a shader issue, similar to here Since 199.646 Open GL crash on a Mac

Go into your ./StarMade/logs folder and look for logstarmade.0.log and graphicsinfo.txt (or graphcisinfo.txt), upload both files here and it should be more clear for us what's going wrong.

Found them. Does the fact that I've been playing the old (working) version for a bit matter? I can retry the new version if that changes the logs.

those are logfiles of .472 ... what is needed is a logfile of a game startup with a non working version.


edit:
and are you sure you are usong the very latest (2 year old :/ ) drivers ?

Downloads for Intel® HD Graphics 3000

My bad. Here are the logs from when I try running the very latest release (0.199.654a). I think I am as up to date as I can be on the drivers, but I will try the ones you suggested.

You seem to have the same issue that OP had in the thread I linked a few posts ago.
This is what fixed it for him (link will bring you to my post):

Just tried the game with the drivers linked above (copied here). No dice. I did get the crash screen to stay up long enough to get a look at it.

WARNINGL 0:3: extension 'GL_EXT_gpu_shader4' is not supported
ERROR: 0:5: 'attribute' : cannot be int
ERROR: 0:41: '&' : syntax error syntax error

There is also something referring to cube/quads13/shadowcube.vsh

Did you try out that shadowcube.vsh fix I've posted too?
[doublepost=1510263825,1510263604][/doublepost]Hm, use this one instead of the one linked in that post.
In your ./StarMade/data/shader/cube/quads13 folder, replace shadowcube.vsh with the file I've uploaded here, make sure to extract the zip as the file is inside it.

Just attempted the first shadowcube.vsh fix posted and no luck. Going to try the second shadowcube.vsh fix.
[doublepost=1510264200,1510263951][/doublepost]FIXED. The second shadowcube.vsh fix worked. I have re-uploaded the fix here for those who follow.

edit: FOR THOSE WHO FOLLOW:
1: updating drivers did not work (For this problem)
2: First Shadowcube fix (for mac) did not work
3: Second shadowcube fix (uploaded here) did work

Edit 2: For clarification, the game is confirmed to run up to 0.199.654a, which is the current release version.

Great! We'll look into it a bit more thoroughly to fix it for the next release.

Thank you. I appreciate the support for old computers like mine.
