Loadout Crash

[icantevenname]

I'm still working on the same mod I keep running into problems with. I've recently found out about the .png to .tex conversion program. I'm glad I did, because I had no idea why the various character icons wouldn't change for weeks, though there's still something I don't understand. I convert the .pngs and stick the oval portrait and name .texs into their respective files. When I get to my character's loadout screen, the game crashes. Yes, I did change the name and oval portrait .xmls like I was instructed to. I must be missing something, but don't know what.

If you follow the instruction about "search the log for error" what do you have ? Usually it gives clues about what is wrong.

If you can't solve your problem with this, post your mod because people can't guess what is wrong without that.

The problem is that there is no log. The whole game crashes. The log screen isn't able to show up.

Also, I don't wanna post my mod unless someone says that they're willing to help. But it seems you've been here for quite a while, so I might as well. If you or anyone you know can help, I'll be pretty thankful. Especially because this is the only thing that's keeping me from posting my character onto the Steam Workshop.

I'll see if i can help later today (can't promise), but the point is : i don't speak about a log screen. I speak about a log text. Even when the game crash with no log screen, or a "don't starve has stopped working" (or something like this, my error message is in french so i'm not sure), i usually have a more detailled message about what is wrong in the log. Sometime the client log, sometime the server log.

It's why log are useful, because screen have only limited information (and sometime none) when i don't remember a moment when the error was nowhere in the logs (text)

So i must admit i can't find any error in the log, which is strange because it doesn't happen usually. I just found this :

[00:00:47]: ../mods/Toonakie/images/saveslot_portraits/toonakie.tex is 120x104 but compressed textures must have power of 2 dimensions.
[00:00:47]: ../mods/Toonakie/bigportraits/toonakie_none.tex is 491x708 but compressed textures must have power of 2 dimensions.
[00:00:47]: ../mods/Toonakie/images/names_toonakie.tex is 876x434 but compressed textures must have power of 2 dimensions.

But i don't remember this being a cause of crash (especially since the crash happen when trying to create the character, not at character selection screen).

I still have no idea what to do, is the problem with the images themselves? Is it because how I exported it from GIMP? Is the length and width wrong?

@icantevenname Sorry i didn't answered before.

The problem is : i don't even know if this is the reason of the crash...  If you didn't change the base size of the image, the size should be right, so maybe the problem is with the .png to .tex conversion. But i'm not sure.

When the game started to crash ? What did you change ? Do you have a previous version of the mod still working ?

I do have an earlier version, but it's just what it was before converting the previously mentioned .pngs. And it worked fine at that point. Honestly, I do plan on uploadin' it without the oval portrait and name image, they're not that important. Though, I'd still like to know why this is a problem to begin with.
