    Sorry for the late response, Demonoid. Can you do a few things for me?
    1. Find your crash log. It's a file called starbound.log located in your Starbound directory, which you can find by right-clicking the game in Steam and clicking Properties -> Local Files -> Browse Local Files.
    2. Open up the crash log, CTRL+C its contents and upload them to Pastebin.
    3. Reply with the link so I can document it.

    Thank you demonoid. Do you have any mods installed?

    no mods , never use them in any game I play . Like I said in the first post , I had been playing for 48 hours total with no issues , those last group of patches that took the lockers away , I couldn't launch that day , so deleted and reinstalled Starbound 3 seperate times now to no avail...

    1) Delete your starbound.log

    2) If you can't delete it, check Task Manager and make sure there are no starbound*.exe processes running

    3) Click the "Diagnostics" button in the launcher

    4) Fix any problems it mentions.

    5) If it still crashes after fixing everything, run the non-OpenGL starbound and post a new starbound.log

    Well , that was odd

    I went and deleted the starbound.log , ran diagnostics , didn't have to do anything and now the game runs fine , tried it 3 separate times now .

    Thanks very much two both of you for taking the time to help me out , now I can actually play again...but of course now I get it working again on the same day my Theme Park Studios early access comes up ;)
