Was previously able to launch everest with no problems, now it crashes, trying to upload the log file but discord keeps rejecting it, I scanned through it and didn't see anything tho, will keep trying to upload just wanted to get a thread open and see if I can post here but not in my DMs

I have two log files, log.txt and logSharp.txt

#

it looks like logSharp was the only one being modified though, I accidently moved it and am trying to find it, but its not beign recreated on new crashes 🤔

#

logsharp is mostly used when installing everest in the first place

lime cedar
#

doing pastebin now

#

it just cuts off at line 46 and not generating new logs anymore 🤔 that's how it looks in the file too

#

it hasn't been modified since last night, everest was crashing and I just tried to verify thru steam and reinstall it, the same crash is happening from before and after I reinstalled it tho

#

or at least, a crash that seems the same I should say

#

i get the error log on crash though, telling me to reach out here and copy my log file

lethal wave
#

that's the olympus log.txt rather than everest thinkeline

lime cedar
#

oh

#

my b my b

#

where is the everest log located?

lethal wave
#

~/.local/share/Celeste/ I think everest log would be here?

lime cedar
#

kk ty sorry 😅 i'll upload those logs now

#

navigating folders on a steam deck is silly, shouldve just grabbed a keyboard rofl

#

so I don't see a log.txt

#

only an errorLog.txt, that syas "Yo I heard you like Everest"

#

I can check in CLI to see if its just hidden

Yo, I heard you like Everest so I put Everest in your Everest so you can Ever Rest while you Ever Rest.

In other words: Celeste has encountered a catastrophic failure.

I don't think that's what you want but figured it wouldn't hurt

#

thinkeline there's a couple of issues that could cause this which is a bit difficult

lime cedar
#

I'll start by updating Steam OS and reinstalling Celeste and Olympus/Everest

#

Deleting Celeste thru steam rather than verifying just to rule out dumb issues

lethal wave
#

I wouldn't start with that

lime cedar
#

ah I am up to date, is it worth going to the beta channel from stable to see if its a steam client issue on linux? 🤔

#

word word

lethal wave
#

three most common are fmod issue, oom or openfiles issue

Having too many large mods installed (especially collabs and mods with high resolution images) can cause out of memory errors, which can appear as crashes or texture corruptions.
This can be fixed by disabling any mods you aren't using, which you can do by toggling them in the Olympus mod menu, adding their filenames to the blacklist.txt file in the Mods folder, or if your game can launch, by turning them off in Mod Options.
If this doesn't fix the issue, either you haven't disabled enough mods, or (less likely), it's another type of error.

#

Everest is opening too many files at once due to Fast Texture Loading. To prevent this, change the line FastTextureLoading: true to FastTextureLoading: false in the file modsettings-Everest.celeste in your Saves folder, which can be found at ~/.local/share/Celeste/Saves/ on Linux and ~/Library/Application Support/Celeste/Saves/ on Mac.

this did break after I installed strawberry jam thinkeline

#

Or at least, I installed strawberry jam before trying to launch

lethal wave
#

yh makes sense

lime cedar
#

is two collab mods just a bit much for the deck potentially? (Winter collab 2021, and strawberry jam)

lethal wave
#

potentially 🤷‍♀️ - in general you should try to only ever have 1 collab enabled

lime cedar
lethal wave
#

use the blacklist.txt instead of deleting the mods

#

well, mine does load, but crashes right after

#

@mighty nexus i switched to just having strawberry jam installed, but that eventually stopped working, this step #1078741323647045692 message made it work for me though!
