Closed (Solved) Starbound stuck on the Loading... Screen!

The Bug:
Well I am really upset because I want to join this RP server but whenever I start up starbound it goes past the chucklefish logo and then freezes at the loading screen.
I tried everything, Restarting my computer, Restarting Steam, Verifying Game Cache and removing the mods. None of them worked. Not even re-downloading the game!!!

Possible Causes:
Well I accidentally clicked cancel when the game was verifying at 78% but I re-verified it.

starbound.log:
http://pastebin.com/9mP3meJe

Solution: Checked assets folder, Found a copy of a folder, Deleted it. Fix!

EDIT: Deleted local game files and re-downloaded starbound. Still, I am stuck at the loading screen... Perhaps this has to do with something else?

EDIT: Removed compatibility mode on steam and starbound, Still no luck.

 

Does it "freeze" for two minutes before actually loading the game, or does it not load the game at all despite being left to its own devices for a while?

 

It does not load the game whatsoever. I have let it sit for half an hour and still, Nothing.

 

Bump

 

Usually when this happens it [the game] will log whatever error occured into the log: starbound.log.

It's usually caused by either an incompatible mod or some changes to the assets folder you may have made.

I would also recommend "Verifying game files" through Steam. That should, at least, correct the assets folder.

 

Try turning off the compatibility settings on Steam and Starbound

 

Alright Master Porky. I will try.

As to you Synthlight thanks for your help but I already verified the game files. I will put the starbound.log right now

 

Alright, I turned off the compatibility settings (Through regedit) and restarted steam, Still no luck...

 

Amg thanks for the tip to check the logs, I had forgotten I copy/pasted goldsword making a goldsword1 lol, now I can play

 

Bump

 

You deleted your local files? Can we get a starbound.log that is current, then? The one you've posted says you have at least one bad asset, or a bad mod installed.

 

This starbound.log is the result of me deleting local game files of starbound and downloading a fresh copy

So this is a fresh log

 

http://pastebin.com/9mP3meJe Here is the log I just checked a second ago.

 

why do you have all these Correcting path entries in your log ? a normal startup does not do this at all

 

I have no idea, Thats why I posted this. I am no coder so I really don't know anything whatsoever about this. I just want to be able to play again

 

nvm I think they are normal, but I think this could be the error

Code:

Error: Exception caught in Thread Async root loader: StarException: Duplicate projectile asset typeName burningstatusprojectile. configfile /projectiles/burningstatusprojectile/burningstatusprojectile.projectile

do you can show content of /projectiles/burningstatusprojectile/burningstatusprojectile.projectile ?

 

Sure.

It does.

You have a duplicate key in an asset.

I don't see any duplicates in what was delivered by Steam, so this is either:
1) A file that you didn't delete before you reinstalled.
2) A mod on your machine
3) A mod on the server to which you're trying to connect
4) A bad file in your player or universe directories

----------
The duplicate isn't in the burningstatusprojectile, there's another file which contains the same projectileName. You may have backed up a file before modding it or something.

 

Looks good

I think you have a folder Debug: Correcting path from /projectiles - copy

should not be there

Did you tried to just delete /assets completely, then go in Steam > Starbound > Properties > Local files > Verify integrity

 

Well heres the thing,
1) I deleted local game content via steam
2) mods folder is empty (besides the modsgohere file)
3) This could actually be the problem, But only if starbound has a directory outside of steam that steam didnt clear.
4) player folder is also empty
