[Bug] - Game doesnt start #644

Closed Reaper367 closed 6 years ago

Reaper367 commented 6 years ago

When I put the files in the game and launch it it says it runs then stops nothing happens on screen other than that.

If DDLC doesnt open, then check game/ for a folder like Monika After Story. If it is there, please take the files out of that folder and put them in game/. (The mod files cannot be in a subfolder in game/). Then delete the folder Monika After Story. In addition, delete the files in game/cache/ to force the game to reload everything/

I did what you said and it still isn't working.

ThePotatoGuy commented 6 years ago

Do you have a subfolder like Monika After Story in game/?

HcaekNoiva commented 6 years ago

there was one but I took the files out of the subfolder and deleted it

HcaekNoiva commented 6 years ago

I also deleted the game cache and still nothing

that's the issue, because you would have needed some of the original files in it to run the game!

@HcaekNoiva if you don't have a copy of the original /game somewhere, I'd say do the following:

  1. get the DDLC .zip (either find or redownload it) and extract the /game folder into your DDLC folder
  2. extract the Monika After Story folder within the Monika After Story zip to /game (don't delete anything)
  3. during the extraction process you should(?) be asked whether you want to replace certain files: hit yes

hope this helps :)

  1. If ddlc doesn't run when the mod is installed, then the mod files are almost certainly installed in a subfolder in game/. The mod files cannot be in a subfolder in game. This is the only known cause of ddlc not running when the mod is installed.
  2. If ddlc runs, but it's still the stock game (the mod doesnt seem to be working), then the mod files were probably installed in the ddlc/ folder instead of game/. The mod files need to be in game/.
  3. If ddlc crashes on start, look in ddlc/ for log.txt, traceback.txt, and errors.txt and upload those files here (if you have them). Or take a screenshot of the error message the crash shows and upload that here.

Monika's screen opens but she does not appear, only thing that appears is a chair :(

... when you tell monika that you are taking her out another MONIKA file is created in the characters folder if you don't bring that "MONIKA" file to the characters folder she'll not be there.

I've tried everything that you all have reccomended me to do, nothing seems to work. All I get is this message: I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
