brittle gorge
#

i was getting the same error as you until i renamed it to that

visual gyro
wheat grove
#

I created a new Folder with that name and it worked for me thx elluna_heart

visual gyro
#

wahh why is it working for everyone else 🥲

brittle gorge
visual gyro
#

yes, in the c drive in it’s own folder (i only have one drive), on documents folder, on desktop folder

#

nothing

#

i have a post related in bug report and support with all the details

mortal finch
#

thanks

#

apreciatted guys

#

it needs to be named exactly "Project Loki Production"

#

case matters, spelling matters

#

for example, this was my install path: "E:\Games\etc\supervive\Project Loki Production"

visual gyro
#

it was a second folder i made to test it but if case and spelling matter i’ll give it one final try when i get home

#

the launcher automatically creates a folder named project loki production, that’s what i did the first time and it still did it

#

oh i had this issue as well, I had to change the path to something other than the root of a drive (so i made mine d:/supervive/

#

when i was just trying to install it on my d drive it wouldn't work

#

zamn

Can you dm your logs from %APPDATA%\theorycraft-games-launcher\logs?

Sounds good. There are a couple of things that are common problems:

  • Folder permissions don't allow your user to write to the selected location
  • The selected folder already has files inside of it
#

We're working on making these errors visible in the launcher as soon as possible

visual gyro
#

is there an eta on when these errors will be visible? just so that others don’t run into the same problem

sick spade
#

We're aiming for a launcher patch by tomorrow that shows them

visual gyro
#

thank youu CheekyCashCat i will still dm you those logs later today

Hi, i just click on the exe, it starts loading and after a few seconds it crashes

#

Hi again, i followed what it is in "(SOLVED) Error: Crash! The Launcher has crashed. Please send ... to the support team" post and it worked for me. But for sure this workaround must be checked since creating manually a folder in C:\Users[User]\AppData\Local and granting permission of everything doesnt seem ok

I just created a "Project Loki Production" folder in my "D:" drive and it started installing.

i have experienced the same problem as @visual gyro with the only difference being i tried using a different drive, i moved the whole launcher folder to G: and opening the launcher as admin seems to have worked

I've very much got the endless "updating" error and tried the various proposed fixes without success
To note that my computer only has got a C: drive, and that there was no log file anywhere

#

ah nevermind i did find the logs

mortal finch
#

Thanks for everything guys

We just pushed a launcher update. Error messages on failed installations will now appear (some of the messages aren't great). You may need to restart your launcher which may require exiting by right clicking in the system tray and selecting quit. If you're encountering problems try exiting and restarting and sharing the error message you see.

fresh install, still not seeing any error, just the endless updating
the logs keep complaining about app.asar
