so i've been playing downpour for quite a bit a couple of months ago and it was working perfectly fine.
yesterday, i've decided to come back to it but the game just didn't want to launch at all. it was just stuck at the black screen before any logos even show up.

after reinstalling the game, it seems like the issue was gone and the game launched fine, until i realized i'm not able to activate any mods and the game just throws this message at me. the base game works perfectly fine

nope, didn't fix the issue unfortunately. I've tried changing proton version, reinstalled the game multiple times and tried various launch options that were suggested at protondb.com, it still doesn't work :c

very odd

#

is it the exact same error every time? it always says Could not find part of the path [...] Rain World\RainWorld_Data\StreamingAssets\mods\rwremix at the top?

shy lake
#

mhm! im pretty sure it's the same error every single time

tender vector
#

can you check for that folder? Rain World\RainWorld_Data\StreamingAssets\mods\rwremix?

#

anything specific you'd like me to check in there?

tender vector
#

no, just it existing is enough thonk

#

it could be a permissions issue perhaps, or something with an antivirus i guess?

#

the game is mad because this folder doesn't exist but clearly it does exist

shy lake
#

yeah...

#

i'll try troubleshooting a lil more but i doubt i'll be able to find out what the issue could be

#

it's very confusing
