#Everest and Celeste don't start

When I install Everest, both Celeste and Everest don't launch (Olympus says Everest is starting but nothing happens). When I open Celeste manually it opens and closes immediately. After Everest deinstallation Celeste starts to open and everything breaks again in the same way after Everest reinstalling.

#

Not sure if I can provide logs because I couldn't find any

Nothing in log.txt?

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.

Also idk if this helps but my everest installer looks like this:
and though I installed the latest version it still has this weird exclamation mark

You’re running macOS, I see. You don’t get any errors after Celeste closes immediately?

#

No popups?

About a year ago I had Celeste and Everest installed and everything worked fine, then I deleted Celeste, and now I reinstalled it and Everest doesn’t work

#

Idk, maybe I’ve broken something when deleting it

#

That’s odd! I’m going to @tough perch if he doesn’t mind

#

I haven't touched macOS for over a year unfortunately

#

Which distribution of Celeste do you have?

#

Steam/itch/etc

#

I'm wondering why it says manual in the list and hasn't automatically detected the installation

#

Also which version of macOS?

tough perch

steep kettle

It worked for me though some time ago

#

At least I’m from Russia and I can’t even put money on steam

tough perch
#

i see

#

no DRM

#

it's also frequently in bundles

steep kettle
#

(Itch too)

#

I can’t put money on foreign services

tough perch
#

well, modern everest won't work on cracked steam versions

#

unfortunately the only advice i can give officially is to purchase the game

#

🙁

#

Will it work if I’ll install some old version?

#

I remember a year ago it worked well

tough perch
#

maybe, but that's not something anybody on this server should help with

steep kettle
#

Yeah sure

#

That’s the only hope ig

tough perch
#

get a friend to buy it for you
