#

launch olympus > everything is fine. i can download mods, find the exe for celeste and such.
click the "everest" button > it starts up everest, gets to almost done and closes.

#

i cant find any logs. im currently just trying to launch without a single mod and it still fails to startup. ive tried both the aur package and the first option. neither seemed to work.

#

this log has info but nothing of value as far as i can see. the log.txt is empty.

📎 log-sharp.txt

#

and celeste does launch without the modded client. it also does try to launch from steam as when i click on everest > it starts up celeste through steam but then refuses to launch it

#

i think thats all the info i can give?

#

realising that the exe olympus found quite possibly isnt the correct one

#

nope. no dice :D

#

still not working

#

and now its refusing to launch the vanilla client

#

sighhh

#

did a quick verify installation. vanilla client launches

There are two types of logs; crash logs and log.txt.

Crash logs are generated when you see an "Oooops! :(" crash handler screen. They contain extra information which regular logs don't.
To access those, there's a button that says Open log file folder, which should take you to where they're stored. Make sure to grab the latest one!

For more subtle issues, non-crashing problems or other miscellaneous stuff, log.txt is checked. To find it, do the following:

Open Olympus.
Press the Manage button in the Installations panel on Olympus' main menu. (it's to the left)
Press Browse to open the Celeste folder.
Look for the file named exactly log.txt inside that folder. Do not grab error_log.txt or look into the LogHistory folder as those are not the log.txt you're looking for.

Your username may sometimes show up in those logs. If you're concerned about that, remember to censor it before uploading. Every text editor should have a replace function, commonly opened with Ctrl+H.

#

there is no "oops" screen

#

it just closes

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:41 AM

#

#

thats why it says there's two types of logs

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:41 AM

#

that file is empty

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:41 AM

#

where are you getting the file

#

did you follow the instructions in the command

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:42 AM

#

olympus > options > open log and config folder > log.txt

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:42 AM

#

that's not what the command says

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:44 AM

#

give sec.

#

its not detecting the exe so im dealing with that atm

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:47 AM

#

sharp garnet nope. no dice :D

i wasn't sure whether this meant that this was resolved

#

in that case open the installation files

#

log.txt is there

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:48 AM

#

currently having an issue where everest and launch celeste have poofed

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:48 AM

#

click on the blue rectangle

#

it's some weird bug when managing installations

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:48 AM

#

ah

#

right now im trying to get it to launch via everest, even with a crash

#

now im getting this im using steam

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:50 AM

#

is there a Celeste (no file ext) file

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:51 AM

#

even steam cant find the executable

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:51 AM

#

hm

#

check the folder ig

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:52 AM

#

#

its in there. bottom left

#

there is a second celeste.exe in the "orig" folder

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:53 AM

#

this awfully looks like steam installed the windows version for you

#

iirc there was a steam for linux bug about that

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:53 AM

#

weird

#

ill try a fresh install real quick and launch without launching olympus

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:54 AM

#

can you force the use of a steam compatibility tool and use linux runtime 1.0

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 6:54 AM

#

get celeste to work :p

#

if in the case that a fresh install doesnt work ill do the steam compat

#

okay it launched

#

celeste has launched. vanilla

#

#

okay we back to full square one

#

linux runtime. and then select what appears here

#

?

#

lmao what

#

so, after my what third fresh install

#

it just works LMAO

#

apologies for wasting your time @midnight basalt

#

all working now

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 6:59 AM

#

including everest?

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:00 AM

#

including everest. give me a second to try a mod

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 7:00 AM

#

oh wait i see the everest

#

check lua cutscenes because ik this is a sore spot

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:00 AM

#

will do

#

launches

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 7:01 AM

#

sharp garnet apologies for wasting your time <@205069548595052544>

i wouldn't call it wasted if it works in the end

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:01 AM

#

#

with lua cutscenes installed.

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 7:01 AM

#

nice

#

ik lua cutscenes caused segfaults on linux but its since been fixed

#

anyways

#

it works

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:02 AM

#

indeed. trying a more obvious to tell "if mods are functioning" mod

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 7:02 AM

#

i love english

#

(i think your cursor moved back by accident)

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:03 AM

#

having it written like that makes more sense

#

#

#

#

#

@midnight basalt im happy to mark this thread as resolved

midnight basalt Jun 16, 2025, 7:07 AM

#

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:08 AM

#

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:52 AM

#

@midnight basalt apologies. i dont think theres a point to opening up a new thread. heres the log file. game crashes (doesnt give the oops screen) when enabling the connect to celeste.0x0a.de option for celestenet.

#celestenet message

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 7:57 AM

#

hmm yeah ill check it out. it seems to be a mod conflict though

#

good chance i can resolve this on my own pretty quickly

crude bridge Jun 16, 2025, 7:58 AM

#

It's not a mod conflict, it's everest cache error

sharp garnet Jun 16, 2025, 8:01 AM

#

yea

#

cache was the issue

#

thanks :D
