Summary:
Tried IB’ing the blacksmith building. Crashed the game after a while. Left blocks I couldn’t mine for some reason on the floor. Saved the game. Reloaded and could then mine said blocks. Then game crashed again and took away sound for entire game. Even when starting it from scratch, validating files etc. Friend said it happened to her and it eventually came back so I’m praying. Can’t load any save files now without having them completely crash the game. Might delete the game and restart.
Notes:
Other games, videos etc work just fine.
Version Number and Mods in use:
Alpha 24.10.2 Release 848
Smart crafting and the Miner mod where its a profession.
Hey @ISPARTAN253I, welcome to the forum 
Sorry to hear your having crashes.
Could you upload your stonehearth.log? It’s inside C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stonehearth
Do you have a crash.dmp inside that folder whose date corresponds to your last crash? If so, please upload it too.
It could also be that one savefile or template has become corrupt and it’s causing the issue.
I also tried deleting the game completely but still no luck. EDIT: I got sound back. Its possible that after reinstalling the game and wiping everything out brought it back. I’ll try adding my saves back to see what happens.
Could the default blacksmith house be bugged? When I drag it around it shows these red marks all over. Even the floor of the blacksmith house seems house bc everytime I have problems its with that template.
I actually sometimes have this while testing my mods. Restarting the game seems to fix it for me.

That’s the VFX of the forge. The particles have a long lifetime so they stay there for a while.
Not sure if intended, will ask the devs.
Didn’t have a fix to my old saves. Basically had to start from scratch and am avoiding using the blacksmith template to prevent my future saves from possibly crashing. I still have the old save files that do keep crashing but I’m technically ok for now. I’ll check on this post if you need anything else from me for a couple more days. Will keep playing today to see how it goes.
mmm we somehow both broke our sound for the game completely 
Friend made a template and we eventually got her to place it after trial and error. We’ll prob just redownload the game again while saving our files to see what happens.

I’ve had an issue like this for a while. On occasional boot up there just isn’t any sound. I have no idea the reason why. Restarting the game usually fixes it but it can occur at random.
