Are you running the launcher from within a zip archive? NoClassDefFoundError is usually thrown if that happens, as some of the default extract tools of windows, only extracts the file that is being used and not all of it. It can't find the files the launcher depends on.

If that's the case, extract the launcher zip completely and it should run fine.

Side note, you're using 6000MB max memory in the launcher, lower that to 4096MB

[TheRealAxel]

For anyone with the same problem/issues in their log:
On the new installer i did a full overwrite update and Starmade is up and running.
I connected on a better network and made sure the update downloaded completely.
I hope i can help someone with the same issue its very frustrating.

 

[AndyP]

Well, that log is odd, at this point it should start loading blueprints and the java libraries.

So there are two possible trails to follow:

a) Did the installation work before?
If yes, please try a completely different directory for the install path, and let the launcher create a new installation.

To change the installation directory use this:



b) Do you use a custom java path?

Make sure the field marked with 2 is empty, and 3 is showing "Using bundled java version" before launching.

Please upload a new log after trying both options.
