Bug Loading from "data/./textures/block" ???

[Maxaxle]

I have no clue what to make of this, but the game keeps trying to load textures from a path that doesn't make any sense (and Java comes up with ResourceException errors).

Screenshot from the last time this happened:

Log from just a few minutes ago:
# # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIG - Pastebin.com

search for the folder data/textures/block and delete it
then use the launchers options and repair - "download normal" to repair the installation.
just make sure you did select the correct game version from the drop down menu first.

 

[Maxaxle]

Just tried both of those, no luck. I think the issue might be the game attempting to load textures from a directory that doesn't exist.

 

[SmilingDemon]

please add a logfile from starmade/logs here. rename it to .txt only and drag and drop it in. maybe there is a clue in there what happens.

 

[SmilingDemon]

you are using the pixel texture pack by default i do assume
that one is broken right now it seems.
and the unpacking of the textures seems to be broken too.

go to starmade/data/textures/block ... there are two folders with Default and Pixel they should contain stuff that looks like the following in there 64/128/256 folders


if there are only zip files, please unzip them manualy to those folders

 

[Maxaxle]

Sorry about the slow response, it's been a busy few days for me. Anyway, I don't see either of those folders, and I'm not seeing any .zip files either. Any idea on where else I should look?

 

[SmilingDemon]

hmm ... completely broken then. those folders should be created on download of the game already.

change the installation path (first launcher) to something like c:/starmade (if it isnt already there) and install again. just make sure it isnt in a place protected by te OS (programs, desktop etc.)

if you are using steam to do this, maybe try the launcher from this webside to install. there have been continues problems with steams file delivery for starmade. (so i hear ... not using steam myself)

 

[Maxaxle]

Weird. I'm using Debian (64-bit, Jesse), and I got the client off of Steam.

 

[SmilingDemon]

ok .. great .. i have only a very (VERY) limited understanding when it comes to Linux .

try to use the linux client from this page then: StarMade
try to reinstall with that one (gets the game from a different server)
maybe steam is delivering trash again

 

[Maxaxle]

For some reason, I'm having the exact same issue. That said, the intro movie is no longer missing.

 

[SmilingDemon]

i am very much out of ideas here.
it isnt a general problem with the game afaik ... otherwise more people wouldnt be able to play.
please add the Log.txt.0 file from one of those failed starts here (found in starmadeinstall/logs, just rename to .txt) for support

 

[Maxaxle]

Will this help?

Max axle can you look in these folders again now?

you are using the pixel texture pack by default i do assume
that one is broken right now it seems.
and the unpacking of the textures seems to be broken too.

go to starmade/data/textures/block ... there are two folders with Default and Pixel they should contain stuff that looks like the following in there 64/128/256 folders

Hey,
I was having this exact same problem. After a bit of investigating I noticed the game did not have the 128 folder in Pixel. I simply copied the 64 file to 128 and the game booted.

cp -fr ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/StarMade/StarMade/data/textures/block/Pixel/64 ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/StarMade/StarMade/data/textures/block/Pixel/128

 

[SmilingDemon]

It didnt had a 128 Folder in Pixel because there isnt a 128px set for the Pixel texture pack ... that was completly fine that way

 

[Maxaxle]

Max axle can you look in these folders again now?

I have 64, 128, and 256 folders under Default, but only a 64 folder under Pixel. Changing the texture pack option (under Graphics) to Default actually lets me play the game (no sound, though)!

 

[SmilingDemon]

thats OK .. there isnt a 128px for Pixel available .. it only has 64px.

 

[eosrei]

The "out-of-box" settings.cfg has invalid values:
G_TEXTURE_PACK_RESOLUTION = 128 //Texture Quality (Resolution)
G_TEXTURE_PACK = Pixel //Texture Pack

Agreed, changing to anything valid fixes it.

Is anyone still having this issue, after re-downloading or replacing these texture packs? I'm way late to this posting but I'm currently having this issue one 1 of two computers I have. Works great on my other machine.

You may have downloaded a very old version.

Make sure to always use the version with the "(latest)" at the end in the version dropdown of the launcher.
You may also delete the file named: settings.cfg from your starmade directory.
This will revert to default settings that should work properly.
