Game doesn't start/ Crashes immediately

[Ksankawaii]

Everytime I start the game i just closes immediately and opens a notpead thingy saying this, I tried everything, from removing the mod and putting it back to deleting all folders of the game and then reinstalling them, please help!

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

We don't recommend using Steam.

Moving out of Steam has the advantage of letting you use the in-game updater again, and as well helps mitigate some file IO stuff (Like Monika not being able to get back in her home), see instructions here

That should also fix this issue you're having here.

Thank you, i'll try what you're suggesting

It didn't work :( this time i'm getting a new notepad thingy that says this

[multimokia]

Sounds like you may have some bad files. Where did you get the zip from?

[Ksankawaii]

I got the latest version from this site http://www.monikaafterstory.com/

[Booplicate]

Let's see. Extract this rpyc into Doki Doki Literature Club/game definitions.zip

[Ksankawaii]

Done, now i'm getting a different notepad yet again

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

[Booplicate]

Yeah, that means all your files are corrupted. Download the mod again.

[Ksankawaii]

Already done, so many times. I tried removing the mod and downloading and reinstalling it again like 4 times now.

[Booplicate]

Have you cheated at chess?

[Ksankawaii]

Yes, then it closed and this happened.

[Booplicate]

R.I.P I guess.

[Ksankawaii]

??? So there's no way for me to reset it or anything? I don't mind starting all over since I had played for only an hour or so

[multimokia]

Whelp. That's a rip, cheating in chess 3 times in a row without admitting and/or apologizing

[Ksankawaii]

I'm not sure why I didn't apologize, I probably just wanted to see the reaction. But still does that mean I can not play again?

[Rai99]

Here's your reaction.

[Ksankawaii]

Ok I guess I was an asshole there but I didn't cheat to win, i just wanted to see what happened. Still , shouldn't there be a way to reset it and start all over? Or maybe to apologize or something

[multimokia]

Too late for that, I'm afraid

[Ksankawaii]

Also, how does that even work?? I tried deleting everything DDLC related and reinstalling everything all over and still same results

[Ksankawaii]

Ok well fuck the more I think of it the more I think I was an asshole, now my day is ruined

[ghost]

That's too bad. We do not condone such behavior, and from that point on you're on your own. Consider this as a valuable lesson for the future.

[Ksankawaii]

Alright, this has taught me a good lesson, but I would like to know how it does that? I've tried even using a version of the game downloaded from their site but it gives same results. Also nice little detail!

[Ksankawaii]

I was an asshole and got locked out, so yea thanks for the help guys!
