When I run the game in 64 bit mode, I can create Forest only servers but cannot resume them. The game gets stuck at the "Launching Server" dialog box with the loading dots at the bottom cycling forever. If I hit the cancel button, the dots stop animating and the whole game becomes unresponsive. I can't create OR resume servers that contain caves (gets stuck at the same dialogue box).
I can create and resume servers while running 32bit DST with or without caves. I can also use the 32 bit exe to resume servers that were made with (and cannot be resumed by) the 64bit exe.
I am running windows 10 with a Ryzen 5, 32GB of RAM and a GTX 3070.
Things I've tried:
- Uninstall all mods from Workshop and delete all mod files from "Don't Starve" and "Don't Starve Together" on steam/common/..
- Verify game files via steam
- Uninstall/reinstall entirely
- Run the 64bit exe directly using elevated permissions ("Run as administrator")
- Added exceptions for the exe to Windows Defender (that is my only antivirus)
- Disabled Windows Firewall entirely
- Ran the exe in compatibility mode for Windows 8 and Windows 7
The server logs look unremarkable to me, but the client_log.txt might be interesting. It always ends with this set lines repeated 10 times:
[00:00:24]: [Workshop] ModQuery got 0 results
[00:00:24]: [Workshop] ItemQuery finished all queries, moving to download phase
[00:00:24]: [Workshop] ItemQuery finished downloading everything
[00:00:25]: [Workshop] ItemQuery got this many results: 0, matching: 0
And then ~48 lines with messages about [IPC] with the final four being:
[00:00:29]: [IPC] Signal 'DST_Secondary_Kill' created #0000000000000F04
[00:00:29]: [IPC] Clearing pending signals #0000000000000F04...

[00:00:29]: [IPC] Clearing pending signals #0000000000000F08...
I've attached the server and client logs
caves_server_log-serverWithCaves-noLaunch.txt client_log-serverWithCaves-noLaunch.txt master_server_log-serverWithCaves-noLaunch.txt
