Hi, I hope this isn't another instance of me being silly again but when I start up the game and click qualia & open my world, the window goes black and I'm also completely unable to move my cursor outside of the window. I can't record it because if I do so before the freeze, it won't even load the game menu to begin with and if I try to record it after the freeze I can't because my cursor is trapped. Only way I can even close the game is using command + option + esc and pressing enter a few times. Earlier this morning I was actually able to play it and it worked fine except for one tiny bug where there was a flickering shadow under one of the hot bar slots and I'd actually tried getting on a few minutes ago to take a recording of that only to run into a big problem. I'm not really sure what to do. I don't know how to find the app data stuff either since I'm using Crossover.

I'm on a MacBook Pro using, as mentioned, Crossover. I know it's not meant to run on a MacBook and totally understand if this is something you're unable to fix. Please let me know what details I should go find that could help, I don't know enough about any of this to know what would be useful information.

#

I don't know if this is useful or not but I was on it this morning (roughly <t:1773494409:t>) and can confirm it did work as someone using a mac and crossover to play

#

but it doesn't seem to work anymore and idk what changed

hmm, can you send the crash logs? on windows they are on the appdata folder, unsure of the equivalent for mac + crossover

I was looking for that earlier and I don't know where to find it cry I opened steam and the local files but I'm just really not knowledgeable about this stuff to know where to find it in my files

#

Aha wait I might've found it

#

Is it "godot.log" txt file,?

#

I am seeing several of them

#

does this work? i thiiink this is right? Or do I need to send all of the logs

#

I finally managed to get a recording of it. Your game also seems to have the ability to make a recording automatically stop because I didn't press the stop button it just forced the recording to end

#

It also froze my entire mac and force quit wouldn't even work so I'm restarting it now

  • hand cursor only appears when I click something
  • after I press start it just stays on that black screen no matter how long I wait and it also traps my cursor making me unable to move it outside the window to do stuff like close it
#

I created a new world and for some reason that works. wtf. is my first world just bugged then?

#

it could be that a certain block/entity is crashing something GPU-wise

#

i would try saving/quitting often just in case

Ok sounds good

#

The random dark patch keeps appearing and I got a white lamp, placed it, and there's so many flickering dark spots everywhere. This was the bug I was originally going to try to report

#

The screen recording is downloading

#

I've tried troubleshooting via toggling various visual settings but they didn't seem to have any effect on the dark patches

#

Things I've tried:

  • changing graphic settings to lower settings
  • changing shadow quality
  • toggling global lighting
  • toggling indirect lighting
  • toggling reflections
  • toggling ambient occlusion
  • toggling bloom
#

I will go get the log rq
