    Great success *cough* I think it was meant for the half of the chucklefish forums to not be able to play the game after the release *cough*

    Installed 1.0.3
    Starting via Steam still makes the game crash with the "Illegal instruction encountered" fatal error.
    Starting from the game folder, and the game still running with a ridiculously low amount of fps.

    This starts to remember me the 3 laws of thermodynamics:
    1. You cannot win.
    2. You cannot draw.
    3. You cannot give up the game.

    Still can the third, but I don't wanna :S

    I have given up on you chuckle fish. Even though this was one of my favorite games, I guess I won't be able to play it anymore... :(

    After downloading the 1.03 update my game has been crashing primarily when I interact with the stargate or the tech station. I have been playing it on my mac and when I played it on PC it did not have the same (the only problem I have is the FPS on the PC otherwise I would play it primarily on PC).

    I may start a Live Help Support IRC soon for Starbound users and other related games with Opengl/Direct3D, D3D/Software/Hardware/Execution etc problems.
    I am planning to make a massive list of 100.000's of solutions to fix games with by typing certain commands/help messages in that specific irc..

    Stay tuned.

    Anyone got a clue what to make of this? trying to help a friend out

    Update
    I've found a Semi-Fix. You need to close steam, then open it from the files. Make sure that steam is entirely shut. You can atleast get in this way.

    Our "old" computers worked fine before they just decided to ditch Directx and move to OpenGL 2.0.

    I honestly don't know what happened to mine... Was working fine this morning... Now it doesn't do anything when I try to open it. So I tried what the Dev said andreinstalled.. And it didn't work. I am using the linux and GoG version of Starbound.

    Is there a way to autoupdate or update within the game itself? Or will I have to download the new version every single time from humble/gog? If I have to download it every single time, do I just unzip/unpack to the starbound folder or am I going erase my progress every time there is a patch?

    for mac/linux will I have to chmod x+ the starbound.sh every patch because of the weird zipping/packing that strips that permission?

    would I be able to use the linux server install guide to update my client side files? the login to steam via terminal run the:

    Code:
    ./steamcmd.sh +login <username> <password> +force_install_dir <starbound server directory> +app_update 211820 validate +quit
    
    and update say a drm-free linux/mac client this way?

    Going 9 days without so much as a post to say they are looking into these issues? They deserve my ire at this point.
