upon entering some rooms in the drought mod, the screen becomes like this. slugcat disappears and I can't do anything, have to quit the game to restart.

#

what region are you in? (if it's Garbage Wastes then it's probably a conflict with a specific mod)

Lizard Customizer, since it conflicts with certain modded lizards and creates this kind of error

alright, then exceptionLog will be the most useful

#

?exceptionlog

Close the game and upload the exceptionLog.txt file that you can find on your root installation folder (next to the .exe, default Steam path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Rain World).
To send the file, drag and drop it into the Discord window. Do not copy and paste the contents of the file.

I've got to leave my pc so I'll do it later

small meadow
#

there you go

vapid swan
#

ah, looks like you didn't fully install Drought

#

it should've come with a folder called 'Rain World' which needs to be merged with the vanilla Rain World folder

#

although actually that's normally how the regions are installed as well, which if you were able to successfully start the game then you must've merged it somehow?

#

when you did the merging, it should've said something like 'there are a bunch of files that already exist, do you want to replace them?' and you should select the 'replace' option here. My best guess is that you did not?

small meadow
#

When I installed drought I just inserted the Assets and World folders, not the Rain World folder itself, then selected the replace option.

vapid swan
#

that should be fine, but for some reason it hasn't properly replaced some of the asset files

#

I'd recommend doing it again just to make sure everything's in the right place

#

I've done it at least 3 times now before I submit the post, though I'll try one more time

vapid swan
#

and I assume you're completely restarting the application in-between attempts?

in Rain World\Assets\Futile\Resources\Atlases there is a file called rainWorld.txt and an associated png

This file is in vanilla and it's a collection of various sprites. Drought adds a few sprites to this, and the specific error here is complaining that it can't find one of the added sprites named 'MoonMark'

#

oh yeah, seems worth mentioning that I always spawn underwater too for some reason, which causes me to die

#

this wasnt happening earlier when I took the first photo

vapid swan
#

Huh, you're supposed to be spawning up where the orange pearl is. Strange.

#

does exceptionLog appear the same? if not, you should send it again, might be a different issue now

small meadow
#

it's still rambling about not having the MoonMark

#

I'll try find it in Drought's folder pre-merge, I wonder if it's included in the .zip at all

#

atlases folder is empty.

vapid swan
#

huh, that's a problem

#

perhaps the zip extraction or download messed up somehow

small meadow
#

i'll try redownloading the .zip

#

oh hey, it works now!

#

no broken rooms / spawning in weird places

#

lets goooo
