    Hello, I've had this problem for a while now, but I tried making my own gun mod like a month ago, and got a slight problem; I cannot open Starbound whatsoever.
    I freaked out, and just uninstalled Starbound and reinstalled it, but it did not fix the problem I have.
    If any of you know how to reset Starbound data in Steam or fix this problem, please reply to this post :)

    Thank you all!


    I've finally got it working, thank you all for helping. I would've never figured it out without you all :) Thanks!

    so many questions were do i start, guess i should make a list

    • what operating system are you using
    • did you receive any error messages
    • are you clicking " Launch starbound " or "launch starbound (OpenGL)"
    • do you currently have any mods active

    check your player.config for any nonexistent items that came from your mod ,and if all fails uninstall again then check to make sure everything from starbound was deleted and reinstall
    ( a bit of advice for future reference if you decide to make another mod, plan out your mod first and create a backup copy of any files you plan on altering)

    1.) I am using windows 7
    2.) Yes I did recieve an error message:
    JsonParsingException: Error parsing json: bad object, should be ':' at
    4:12
    009A4642
    (E:/Steamworks/Starbound/git/starbound/source/core/StarVariant.hpp:
    15)
    007E38A9
    (E:/Steamworks/Starbound/git/starbound/source/game/StarRoot.cpp:5
    8)
    004DBBD1 (c:\SDL-1.2.15/./src/main/win32/SDL_win32_main.c:318
    3.) I clicked 'Launch Starbound'
    4.) I deleted the mod I made, so no

    I'll check my player.config, but I don't think that is the problem... :/
    Thank you for your time helping me by the way.

    i think when you uninstall starbound the mod folder isn't deleted...

    did you deleted your "custom gun"?

    in your steam library right click starbound -- options -- local content (i think its in english) -- verify cache integrity

    it will locate any missing files and/or size mismatches and replace the files with the vanilla ones.
