game will not open, just closes immedietaly

[dark steeple]

once i click the play button on steam, it just opens for a few seconds and then closes. How do i fix this? (log included)

[verbal barn]

@dark steeple could you upload the log-file as a text-file?

[verbal barn]

@dark steeple Could you upload the Storage.rsf file from the System subfolder?

[verbal barn]

Strange, it looks intact to me

[dark steeple]

ive tried many things, ive reinstalled it many times, ive run the .exe file as administrator, ive verified the game files integrity, and ive even reset my computer.

[verbal barn]

Try renaming the Storage.rsf file

[dark steeple]

i renamed it, but now it took longer to close

and also every time i open the game, it just creates a new storage file

[verbal barn]

Yeah the storage-file is your progress and settings

[dark steeple]

what do i if the renaming didnt work

[verbal barn]

I'd say wait to see if Petri can find a bug doing this or something

[dark steeple]

Hi!
The game.rsf might have gotten corrupt.

Can you do the following:

1. On Steam, disable Cloud Save on the game
2. delete the game.rsf file
3. launch the game to regenerate it
4. enable Cloud Save for the game (if you desire)

[verbal barn]

Checked the file, doesn't look corrupt to me

[misty arch]

oh, strange, it looked corrupt to me

ah wait.. i know..

[misty arch]

Could you share game.rsf?

[verbal barn]

Is that basically a backup of Storage.rsf?

[misty arch]

storage.rsf is deprecated, and game.rsf is the one being used.

[verbal barn]

ah

[misty arch]

storage.rsf if used to generate a new game.rsf file, if the game launches and detects that storage.rsf exists. It will run the migration to game.rsf based on this file.

if the game launches without finding either file (normal for new players), the game.rsf file will be generated

[dark steeple]

thank you for the help, this worked and now my game has been fixed

Gave +1 flight-hours to @misty arch (current: #3 - 370)

[misty arch]

Woho! I'm so happy, thanks for the help, this issue has been on my mind for a bit.

[verbal barn]

Is the switchover basically just to go away from the encrypted storage or?

[pine shore]

I'm having this same issue, but apparently I'm way more ignorant as I cannot fine the storage.rsf or the game.rsf files. I've searched the entire Reentry folder. It's also not clear to me that if/when I find these files, do I delete them?
