so i dont know what to put this under, but my starbound application/.exe file is just straight up gone and i dont know how to get it back
i've tried every possible fix i could find, and none of them have done anything

#

usually its in that folder but it just vanished and i have no idea why

knotty berry
#

the exe is usually in win32 or win64

dusky trench
#

its in both of those but it refuses to launch through steam, and when i launch through win32 or win64 it doesnt load any of my mods

#

im hoping the issue is that it can only work if the exe is in one and its trying to launch both and freaking out because i vaguely know how to fix that

knotty berry
#

verify files in steam

dusky trench
#

i already have like three times

knotty berry
#

what the heck

dusky trench
#

i dunno man

#

i would send a crash log if i could but it doesnt even make it to the Chucklefish logo part of loading

#

it stays open for at most 30 seconds before just closing on its own

knotty berry
#

does it not still generate a log

#

ik there’s a way to make a shorcut that uses steam mods bc i have one let me check

dusky trench
#

im not tech literate in the slightest where do i find the log

knotty berry
#

storage

#

it should be called starbound with file extension .log

dusky trench
#

i have config and text file

#

no log in sight

knotty berry
#

idk why youd have had an exe here theres nothing

dusky trench
#

oh

#

i mean the game still wont run so-

#

and to be fair to me, every other steam game i own has an exe in the main folder

knotty berry
#

what is in your storage folder

#

have you been able to run the game previously on this installation?

dusky trench
knotty berry
#

if you show file extensions i think the text doc will be a .log type file

dusky trench
#

ah you're right

knotty berry
#

send?

#

you can just drag and drop the file

[15:19:17.756] [Error] Application: exception thrown, shutting down: (StarException) Asset source 'open_ui' is missing dependency 'opensb_base'

#

i think you aren't using openstarbound but you have something that requires it

#

had you used osb previously / used this mod list without issue before?

dusky trench
#

im gonna be honest i've never even heard of openstarbound
and no i havent had many issues with this modlist

knotty berry
#

you probably either have to ditch open ui or get osb

dusky trench
#

thank you for the help
i thought this was a mich bigger issue than it was

knotty berry
#

does it work now though

dusky trench
#

yes

#

i didnt even know i still had open ui i thought i uninstalled that 😭

dusky trench
#

starbound exe file is gone [solved]

dusky trench
#

starbound is being weird

#

alright more issues yay

#

no idea what its yelling about

#

it finally loaded my mods and it isnt happy about it

[01:47:54.088] [Error] Exception caught loading asset: /objects/protectorate/objects/protectorateship/protectorateship.animation, (AssetException) Could not read JSON asset /objects/protectorate/objects/protectorateship/protectorateship.animation

#

im thinking this is an issue with a race mod you have installed maybe/

#

it's an issue with a vanilla file, but this kind of thing can be caused by patches done by mods

dusky trench
#

ill go see if i can find which one

knotty berry
#

what were you doing when it crashed

#

the issue is with the ship that appears at the end of the graduation intro mission

dusky trench
#

thats weird because that error apparently stops the game from loading the title screen for some reason

#

ok i think i found the source

knotty berry
#

what was the issue

dusky trench
#

it was a race mod
i dont know why as i dont remember it even using that ship sprite

#

anyway, its working now
thank you for the help (again)
