Just updated to b1658, the game will not open. I get a “Stonehearth has stopped working” notification. I’ve deleted local game content, reinstalled, same issue.
I clicked on the info box as well (if it helps):
My Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo T5800, 2.00GHz
4.00 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GS
Vista
When I try to debug or tell Windows to give me more details, it says something about an unhandled win32 exception in Stonehearth.exe [6856]
Could it be related? Can some dev check it?
Why would it be specific to laptops per se? In general, laptop hardware is very similar to PC hardware - just not as powerful, due to volume/weight/heat issues.
AMD are behind the Radeon graphics cards though, which is why I linked their site . Also, their update software doesn’t always like keeping the graphics card drivers fully up to date, so if you use a Radeon you may want to check anyway .
Anyway, assuming it’s not that for the moment… hmm. Some info on your version of Stonehearth (see bottom left corner of the main menu, be sure to include the revision/build number too - latest is 1658) & Windows, CPU, RAM and graphics card may offer some clues, although the fact that it could run before is puzzling. Have you tried a clean install (ie, making sure the folder below is deleted)?
Obviously Steam may not be installed in C:\Program Files, but the rest of the directory structure is accurate for Stonehearth. Anyway, if you uninstall Stonehearth, delete the Stonehearth folder in your SteamApps\common folder, and re-install using the latest update (right-click Stonehearth in Steam, go to Properties, then Betas, then choose the latest option), does that help at all?
Edit: I know you’re using the unstable / latest version already, just want to make absolutely positive that it’s installed cleanly after a full uninstall .
Thinking at this point that it might be worth paging @not_owen_wilson or @sdee (devs, as opposed to us mere fans ^^ ) to see if he can shed any light on this. It certainly sounds like something’s changed at the Stonehearth end, and @not_owen_wilson’s probably the best person to shed light on what’s going on.
