    I've been playing Starbound for countless hours, never messed with the game files, never modded, just plain vanilla Starbound but recently Starbound has refused to launch now. I click launch, it brings up the window with a white box and then closes. I've been trying to fix this on my own for a bit, tried searching through forums to try and see if I could do something they suggested to help and I've had no luck. I just made this account to seek help for this issue I've been having. I already put the log in from the files. Does anyone know what's wrong and preventing it to start. QUICK EDIT: This log is from the regular (not unstable) version.

    It seems like the steam overlay fails to initialize. Try launching starbound as admin.

    No doubleposts please. :nuruhappy:

    Its deffo an overlay issue. You can try to disable any overlay you dont need (steam, discord, etc).

    Don't have Discord overlay enabled, Disabled Steam overlay, restarted steam. It's still doing the same thing. Even tried running as admin on both steam and starbound.
