    Then please do the following
    search for the folder starmade/logs and copy the latest log.txt.0 (timestamp from latest crash) and the graphcisinfo.txt into one zip and do add it here with "upload a file"
    and please give an info about your systems hardwar, what cpu is in use and if any what gpu is installed.

    I think I knew that. Just in a rush and a little frustrated.
    File attached, although the log shows as 0 bytes.

    Pentium 4 3.20 GHz
    3 GB ram (although there really 4 in there--I know, there's a glitch)
    NVIDIA GeForce 6800

    So, you can see my system is old, and by old I mean ancient. Try to contain your laughter. It's a Dell XPS from 2005 or 2006. I'm not really able to upgrade at the moment. But StarMade ran on it until recently, and it ran somewhat smoothly with just about everything turned down to bare min. I could cope, and it was fun enough.

    I did have the same thing happen during the last update, but I uninstalled/reinstalled Java and it worked.

    I've done that this time, but no dice. :(

    I would have expected an Intel iGPU problem :/
    and yes .. your hardware is very outdated

    Are you sure your GPU drivers are up to date ?
    The latest i could find is http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/82701/en-us
    I guess that you are running a 32bit system .. because you are only using 3 of your 4gb memory

    and its this:

    Is there an option to use a more recent driver?

    For our side:
    We use the GLSL in version 120 aka GLSL 2.1, which is dated September 2006.
    Thats the bare minimum your driver needs to support.
    With 2005/2006 hardware there may be a good chance there is a driver available to support this.

    I believe my drivers are the latest ones (6.14.13.783).

    Now for the really hilarious part that I failed to mention: I'm still running WinXP on this machine.
    Yes, I might as well be living out of a box. Probably the box this machine came in.

    I had hoped to find something like Omega Drivers that would work, but the sight seems down. I did that for something in the past (which I can't remember). Unless there's some third (fourth?) options, you happen to know?

    At this point, if you feel like there's no hope (e.g., upgrading the OS is the only way) then I'll have to be okay with waiting it out.
