    [ FIXED? ]: completely by itself.
    nothing i did, specifically, fixed any of these issues. the game just suddenly decided to work... but i'm guessing one of my mods corrupted something, since trying on the mods again made the issue return. removing them again fixed it again.

    edit[24.apr.2016]: blargh.. it's doing the thing again x.x; blank window, then instantly closing
    PS: it's completely modless right now

    getting an error....
    "CreateExpBtn, err:A call to an OS function failed"
    anyone got any ideas?
    i had another one before that but installing vc_redist seemed to make it go away... and bring this one in xD

    ... huh. oddly enough, i just tried to relaunch it... nothing happens anymore - no error, just a window that quickly disappears.
    i'd paste the log but it's not generating a new one.

    still not working.



      • tried moving the Sbbot.config file from win64 to win32
      • tried verifying files on steam
      • tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it
      • tried deleting it and reinstalling it
      • tried completely removing all mods
      • tried moving mods from storage to root folder
    both win64 and win32 versions open a white window and closes very quickly
    tried deleting the logs to make sure, no logs are generated... at all. not even empty ones.

    Any mods installed? Are they modpacks, if so?

    one modpack. should i remove it?

    edit: removed all mods, still launches a window very quickly and closes... also still no log.

    Modpacks don't work on Nightly at the moment, but I think you should also verify the integrity of the game cache.

    If you unpack the the modpack file, the mod will work... probably. Provided that it isn't broken by Nightly, anyway.

    i reinstalled it. it still won't launch.

    BUT.

    i accidentally noticed the 64 bit version does work now.... even though... it doesn't see any mods as being installed
    xD
    http://prntscr.com/aj5kxm

    i used to play the 32 bit version before, since the 64 bit version never worked lol

    anyone running into the same kind of issues? moreover, anyone knows how to get mods working with the 64bit version?

    Please make sure you install the mods into the correct folder, since giraffe_storage no longer exists and there is a mods folder in the main /starbound - unstable/ directory.

    Also, log file please.

    when i put the mods in the Starbound - Unstable/mods folder, it got moved to Starbound - Unstable/koala_storage/mods after i opened the 64-big version of the game to test if it could see the mods
    regardless, the log file wasn't generated at all

    PS: the koala folder wasn't there before lol

    Yeah that happened to me as well for whatever reason, but moving them back fixed that.

    Please specify if you're launching the 32-bit or the 64-bit version. You need to manually copy over the sbboot.config file from the Win64 to the Win32 folder if you want to launch the 32-bit version.

    Also all mods are now in /mods/, rather than /storage/mods/.

    either one is just opening a white window very quickly before it closes. none stays opened anymore, not even 64bit (this, after i deleted the entire game folder and re-downloaded the game... BEFORE putting the mods back into the base foldder...)

    If it opens a white window for a moment, it should generate a log in /storage/Starbound.log . If it doesn't do that... well, not sure how to help you. :\

    Go to youre starbound unstable (nightly) folder and copy the file (Sbbot.config) from win64 folder to win32 folder. It worked for me.

    I am having the same issue. I tried the copy thing but it didn't work. Here is what my .log says:

    Seems there is an issue with the packed assets? Not knowing much about that stuff i'm at a loss.

    Edit: sorry about the faces, I copied/pasted from the log to here and I guess the emoji thing turned some of the things into them.

    That worked, thank you(though I'll miss my mods).

    Did you delete your modpack mods?
