AshteriskGaming Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Hey guys; was hoping I could figure out everything on my own, but I was going to have a major problem at some point. I've looked up my issue and haven't come up with any results; I am making my own character mod with Dleowolf's Extended Sample Character Mod, and I decided to try to test it in-game now that everything else seemed stable code-wise in the selection screen and the clothes screen, but I got stuck on this blank beige screen after going through both. Spoiler This occurs immediately after selecting the character and starting the world. (currently using an offline world) I will be attempting to add two character companions with summoning items for them (not ghosts, but still similar to Abigail in behavior) to my character later, but that can wait for another forum topic, if need be.

DarkXero Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 In those cases, you go get the MyDocuments/Klei/DoNotStarveTogether/client_log.txt You can try reading it yourself or upload it here so we can take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you trying to make a server with or without caves? Try deleting the client_log and getting a fresh one right after the games crashes and you close it.

I haven't a clue what half of this log means; My character's name is Itsuki, so any information related to that name should be important in this particular situation. It's not getting stuck anymore, but now it just crashes. It still only does it with this mod, but I do have others installed; just not enabled in the world I try to start. client_log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what's wrong. :/ [EDIT: It's saying that when it tries to index "itsuki" it returns a nil value.] Edited July 7, 2016 by AshteriskGaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely missed the one on line 49 and I thought line 45 was something it wasn't. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragolantis Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I had the same problem, but when I changed my characters name in the code to lowercase, the game crashed, significantly worse than before. My character has 2 words in his name, and I put an underscore in between the words in his name, just in case that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Die Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Uhm i'm not sure but this was from 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragolantis Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I made new versions basically undoing several updates, Might my issue be correlated to the files still being called esctemplate or that my character is invisible when I load up the game? I'mma try to rename the files, if that doesn't fix the issue, I don't know what to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndRay Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 So, there is a whole tutorial on debugging in the Tutorials and Guides section of this forum, that would help you a lot. But basically: go to your Documents/Klei/DoNotStarveTogether folder and grab the error logs. There is the client one that is enough if you're hosting a solo world without caves, and inside the cluster folders there is the server one otherwise. Every print statement you make will appear in one of those files. They also have the very helpful lua crash handler and stack traceback so it's much easier to correct mistakes. So, do a bit of messing around with prints and then send us the exact line that causes the crash, coupled with the error message that appears.

Hiru315 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) The esctemplate character invisible in the game is normal. Just keep doing and don't be bothered by that. It'll work. Edited November 10, 2020 by Hiru315 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragolantis Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 What I did, was I stripped it down to the bare bones, which was basically making the mod as is, with adjustments to name, version, and description, and renaming the stuff, and I guess also one extra tag, but it isn't much, and the screen freeze issue is still happening, is the extended character template outdated? It worked fine on the weekend. Also, where exactly are the error logs stored, if it is something on my end? I'mma try to remove the tag and see if that fixes it, hope I can fix it on my own!
