#opening olympus
134 messages ยท Page 1 of 1 (latest)
For some users, Olympus freezes on a white or black screen on startup for unknown reasons. You can attempt the following fixes:
-If you have a third party antivirus, check if it's blocking/quarantining Olympus.
-Restart your PC.
-Delete and reinstall Olympus.
If none of those work, no fix for this is currently known and you have to use one of the following alternate installation methods:
-On Windows, the old graphical Everest installer is available at https://gamebanana.com/dl/430740.
-Mons (https://github.com/coloursofnoise/mons/) is a command line based cross-platform installer that is similarly powerful to Olympus. However, it requires some base familiarity with the command line.
-Alternatively, you can use the manual installation method described under "Cross-platform manual installation" at https://everestapi.github.io/.
ok ill try to restart pc
and then reinstall
thx
installing the old graphical everest helped
nevermind
make sure you're installing 3650, 3651 doesn't actually exist
upload the error log
System.BadImageFormatException: Format of the executable (.exe) or library (.dll) is invalid.
validate your game files through Steam, then try again
tried that a couple of time but still same error
uh
delete the orig folder and validate?
still error
i deleted the orig floder in celste forder
it had another celeste folder in it
you're still getting an invalid exe file error?
yea
even after deleting orig and verifying game files?
can you send the log from this attempt?
yeah, it's generated by the installer as a backup of the vanilla Celeste.exe
oh
Running MonoMod for C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Celeste\orig\Celeste.exe
that still says it's using theorigexe
huh
do this sequence again, then install and upload the error log
can you dm me the Celeste.exe file?
yea
the file doesn't seem like it has any issues
maybe this is a new issue with the old installer
can you try the cross-platform manual install method?
that?
yes
wait so how do i open it if its a zip
what do you mean?
Not EverInst
that's for Linux
the stable build is fine
im stuck on this screen after i dropped the stable branch zip into the olympus file
Did you follow the cross platform install instructions?
ok so i followed the instructions, im not quite sure if i understood it right but i need to drop the main file into here right?
into the Celeste folder
The contents of main.zip need to go there
so it should look like that
Sorry, the contents of the folder need to be in the Celeste folder. So Celeste.Mod.mm.dll should be next to Celeste.exe
Yes
so how do i move it next to celeste exe
That is in the correct place
I don't think you're following the cross-platform instructions
those are telling you to run MiniInstaller.exe, not Everest Installer
i am following that
why is this showing up then
idk
i dont see any of the instructions telling me to use it and idk how to instal it
the instructions are in this screenshot, directly after telling you to extract the zip
if you extracted the zip, it should be in your celeste folder
most of it is intructions for how to run MiniInstaller.exe on mac/linux because .exe is a windows format
on windows you just double click the file
wait so where is the download for MiniInstaller
it's in the zip you extracted here
it should already be in your celeste folder
try starting celeste
Among other things, the window that pops up when you run MiniInstaller
that?
Correct
and what does that mean?
Those instructions are for Linux, you've already run miniinstaller
No, you've already run MiniInstaller
What does it say?
this
Is Celeste open?
Close it
the terminal closed and it seems like nothing is happening
What displayed on the terminal before it closed?
Anything else?
nope
Is there a miniinstaller-log.txt file?
yes
Upload that
Format of the executable (.exe) or library (.dll) is invalid.
Somehow your Celeste install is just cursed
try the following (do all the steps in order):
-delete the orig folder
-verify game files on steam
-follow the complete everest install instructions again
What does "More Info" say?
oh i can run it anyway
when i click it
ok so i think the terminal wrote 1 more line than before and then closed
what did you do after verifying game files
installed the main again, replaced the old files from the celeste folder and ran miniinstaller
can you share miniinstaller-log again?
Can you send a screenshot of what you're doing to verify the game files?
hmm idk your PC is haunted
i started the installer again before that btw
its in german btw
the bottom one
