    Normally I can figure these things out, but alas, the solution evades me.

    Ive updated the game to latest, and when i click on play game, nothing happens. Ive tried reinstalling java, the game entirly, anything i could think of, but no good. Anyone?

    Its probably something glaringly obvious that ive overlooked.

    logs?
    If there are none, try to launch StarMade manually from the console(use cd to get to the installation folder, then to "java -jar StarMade.jar -client")

    Hmm, I had some trouble too when I tried to update at 5 PM (GMT+1) this afternoon. It went very slow and in the end when I tried to run StarMade I got a Java ZipException error of a not recognized GZip file, never seen this before so I presume an overloaded download server.
    Luckily I had made a full backup as always, so I set that back and tried again some 20 minutes ago and now all went well.
    So if you have a backup maybe time to try again now the big rush seems to be over.

    Greets,

    I noticed in the log it mentions the file "jinput-dx8.dll". I looked for it and found it, but it is zero bytes. im guessing a failed download?

    Same goes for the files jinput-raw.dll (zero bytes) and OpenAL32.dll (less than 1KB)

    Odd enough I have it working on 2 other computers from when I downloaded it yesterday. Copied them over and all seems to work...


    I think it may be related to my nvidia display drivers. I just updated them to 350.12 and it keeps failing. Screen goes black for a second and a message pops up saying the drivers failed and were recovered. Im gunna downgrade them again...

    Driver downgrade and reinstall of game, still no dice.
