try running starbound.exe as an admin

jolly stream Jan 9, 2023, 2:05 AM

#

Didn't work, still gives the same fatal error

opaque echo Jan 9, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

maybe your machine is out of memory? you could try closing other programs so your machine has more resources to work with. the reason it's crashing is that it can't open a player metadata file. you could try deleting said file too

#

/starbound/storage/players/metadata

#

(instead of deleting it, try moving it to your desktop in case you need it again)

jolly stream Jan 9, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

The player file is completely empty

opaque echo Jan 9, 2023, 2:09 AM

#

oh

#

uh

#

that's odd. it should automatically make a new one. when I get home, I can try sending you a generic metadata file for that folder. I'll be home in an hour and 20 minutes

jolly stream Jan 9, 2023, 2:09 AM

#

Alright sounds good!

#

I'd hate to bug or bother but are you able to share the metadata file? I have to be asleep now but I'd be able to partake in stuff in the morning

opaque echo Jan 9, 2023, 9:09 PM

#

oh-- I forgot, sorry! sending one right now

#

📎 metadata 📎 statistics

#

they're both as empty as you can get-- I put the statistics file in case you need it

#

It seemed to have worked just fine in the beginning when i added the metadata, but if I were to change any settings like putting it to fullscreen it starts to get fatal errors again
