    I've been working on my own custom race mod and while testing it I kept getting errors, the most recent one making no sense whatsoever

    Code:
    Error: UniverseServer exception caught: ObjectException: No such object named 'dimentrexcaptainschair'
      005F9333
      005F9E6F
      005F9F1A
      0069C664
      00A953F7
      004FDE28
      00500476
      009681DC
      7C80B729
    
    This is the error I get even though I'm looking right at the object folder and file. What I want to know is, what the heck is going on here!? I followed the structure of another mod with a custom captain's chair (Kawa's Felin mod)

    The files and folders are spelled correctly, yet the game continues to say it doesn't exist.

    Can you post the whole log file, please? Sometimes the "final" error isn't as helpful as the errors leading up to it, if that makes any sense.

    If the object is appearing OK in game - you can ignore that.
    I have ran a server and got like 100 of those messages for various modded objects, yet they appear in game for more than 2 people (server + client side) and they're totally playable without any issue. Still messages for those kept appearing in the server console on initialize of the server.

    This is singleplayer and my own mod. I can't even get into the game to see if the object is there.

    Since putting the log in spoiler tags didn't work(froze and/or crashed my web browser each time) I'm going to upload it and just put a link to it here.

    It does that when there is an error in the object file. It could be as simple as forgetting a comma somewhere.

    *edit* looking at your log that seems to be it.

    Code:
    /objects/dimentrex/dimentrexcaptainschair/dimentrexcaptainschair.object
    caused by: JsonParsingException: Error parsing json: bad object, should be '}' or ',' at 19:3
    Going to take a wild guess and say that this line is the one missing the comma in the dimentrexcaptainschair.object
    Code:
    "inventoryIcon" : "<iconimage>.png",

    Actually the line that was missing the comma was the one with the dialogue for what the Dimentrex race would say when examining the chair from 2 lines up(one line was empty) It only says that early of a column if it's an error from a previous line.

    Where in the log did you find that?

    All errors fixed, got my mod up for download now here
