Bug Singleplayer stuck at "connecting".

[darktoes]

I decided to start playing Starmade again recently and have quickly found a fairly major problem. Whenever I try to start the game in singleplayer it pops up the connecting window and does nothing, it simply sits there. No programs are run and nothing appears to happen, it just sits there until I close the window. I'm running a completely fresh install and tried downloading the latest version manually. It seems to work perfectly until I get past the options window and hit ok, but then the window pops up.
The bug seems vaguely familiar and I seem to remember having it before but since the old forums are gone I can't find any way to fix it whatsoever. Any help would be appreciated.
(I apologise if any of the text seems wrong, it's near midnight by me and I stayed up till 4 AM last night.)

Seems the solution that works 90% of the time is putting Starmade on your primary (C: ) drive instead of another one.

(By the way, the old site and forums are still accessible from http://oldsite.star-made.org/ )

 

[darktoes]

I already had the files on the desktop but moved them to the program files folder which made no difference. I read somewhere that running it in administrator mode might fix it but it hasn't and I tried everything I could think of (which wasn't much admittedly). I did a search on the forums and found a few other posts where the person just moved the files to the main drive but I've already put them there and the problem persists.

 

[AndyP]

You should move them to C:\Starmade

The programs folder is protected by Windows too.

But, for single player, do you see the 'dedicated' server window showing up?
(The window shown when clicking on "start dedicated server")

In case there is no second window showing up, please restart your computer and make sure there is no stalled Java-program in the background (task manager) and make sure you selected 'sandbox'-mode not multiplayer and trying to connect to localhost.

In case the window is showing up, please check your firewall settings.

[darktoes]

I moved it to C:\Starmade and that did nothing. When I run it the server window doesn't show up and I already checked for other Java apps although I never restarted my computer but I was having the same problem yesterday and I restarted since then.

 

[AndyP]

In this case, please try running it by clicking on 'Start dedicated server'.

It should show up then.
If not, there should be something wrong with your database/server-files, please go to /logs directory, delete everything in it, and then please try again. After that, you should have some files in that directory again. Please send them to me (preferable zipped and uploaded).
(Its okay to start via conversation, or post link here. Anything you like.)

- Andy

 

[darktoes]

Well I ran the dedicated server and the window popped up and ran fine, although if I tried to run a singleplayer game from there it told me the game was already running and trying to connect with localhost:4242 just did the whole stuck at connecting thing. I cleaned out the logs and made a new one and it should have what's needed. I had a look myself and this part seemed the most important;

Direct compare to my log, shows:
Next thing should be joystick and connection itself.
As you are running a fresh install, may you remove the 'Settings.properties' and 'cred' in your user-file-directory? (for windows go to: %appdata% and then doubleclick '.starmade'.)
As it may be caused by some joystick settings being messed up somehow.
But thats a bit of a guess, since it looks like your client is starting and the 'fullupdate' should also come from the server itself. (Maybe a firewall is interfering, but just to make sure, you should try to remove all saved settings by the launcher.)

Also it may help to run the Starmade Diagnostic Tool.
And post the Report here.

- Andy

 

[darktoes]

Well I checked in .Starmade and deleted the cred file (which did nothing) but there wasn't a settings.properties, which is odd I suppose. I tried running it with my firewall off but nothing changed. For some reason the forums aren't letting me upload the .txt file so I'll just post the results here;

[darktoes]

I'd really like some help here...

 

[AndyP]

oh, somehow this got out of my trails.

Sorry.
May you please try to connect to a multi-player-server?
Any from that list stating version 0.1421 will do.

The only real reason I can imagine is a somehow broken local universe. (As you exited the program 10seconds after it reached its last step, quite long enough for local host.)

- Andy

 

[darktoes]

I tried connecting to the two servers at the top of the list and neither of them worked, it just sat there saying connecting.

[AndyP]

So this seems to be a persistent problem.

Please read this, and create the predictable game state then try starting sandbox games,
and don't click on 'cancel' when stuck at 'connecting' for at least 1 minute.
Then send me the complete logs directory, including server.cfg and settings.cfg from /starmade directory.

Thanks in advance.

- Andy

 

[darktoes]

So the forums are stupid and I hate them because they just generally suck and don't work well (for me, maybe I'm alone in this)... Oh yeah, and they won't let me upload the files separately so here:

Seriously, fuck these forums.

Yes, pasting stuff in, is really hard when being used to hold shift while pressing enter (avoid double line jump in some editors), as it sometimes reverts the paste.

Back to topic:
Hm, there is really no reason it is not connecting in the logs.
So I assume you have some sort of security software installed (firewall, virusscanner) that actively prevents java or in special starmade to connect.

There seems to be no other possible reason for it.

What I meant was that when I tried to upload the log file as an attachment to the post it kept throwing me an error.
I tried running it with both my firewall and antivirus off. It didn't help.

 

[AndyP]

Please check your assigned memory settings.

User proper powers of 2.

Max: 2048
Initial: 1024
Earlygen: 256

maybe something went wrong in that.

- Andy

 

[darktoes]

I don't actually know where to check or change that, could you give me a hint?

 

[AndyP]

Start the laucher, and before pressing "start"
go to the top menu bar, and click on "settings" then "memory settings"

check both tabs for sane values.

- Andy

 

[darktoes]

Well I checked them and for some reason the values were all at half that, except the initial memory for the dedicated server was at 1024. I set them all to the values you posted and it made no difference.
