    Is this before it gets to the menu?
    or before you create / enter a singleplayer world?
    or when you're connecting to a server?

    As soon as I press launch from the launcher menu it says loading at the top left corner.

    Search for the settings.cfg in the starmade install path and open it with notepad (or what ever is used for it on MAC )
    then change the following lines accordingly and save it. Then see if it works.

    PLAY_INTRO = false //Play Intro
    TUTORIAL_PLAY_INTRO = false

    I've found the settings.cfg, but for some reason it's blank? Whenever i open it in notepad, nothing pops up... Can you maybe send me a copy of the default settings.cfg, and then maybe i could copy it to mine.
    [doublepost=1494872740,1494871994][/doublepost]Never mind I found it! Thanks so much, it turns out you have to use textedit, as notepad won't work! I'm gonna go try it now and see if it works!

    Hmm .. sounds like something else then .. but anyways here is a default one with both lines already changed.

    if this isnt working ... in the logs folder should be a logstarmade.0.log file (newest timestamp) drag and drop that into an answer here then

    the mentioned logfiles might be useful here.

    otherwise .. how long did you wait for the game to start ? ... it has to generate the universe and setup files on the first start

    AH! I figured it out! Ok so i figured, since last time the issue was with the startup intro features, i figured it might be with this case too, so i disabled the tutorial, and it works perfectly now! Thanks for all the replies!
