Starcheat crashing. Don't know why.

[Kohai524]

recently downloaded starcheat again. only problem is that when i open it, and press yes to rebuild the assets index, or even no, it crashes and I get this

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/s232501/Desktop/starcheat.app/Contents/Resources/boot.py", line 399, in File "/Users/s232501/Desktop/starcheat.app/Contents/Resources/boot.py", line 336, in _run File "/Users/s232501/Desktop/starcheat.app/Contents/Resources/starcheat.py", line 83, in File "/Users/s232501/Desktop/starcheat.app/Contents/Resources/starcheat.py", line 80, in main File "gui/mainwindow.pyc", line 154, in init File "gui/utils.pyc", line 103, in check_index_valid File "gui/utils.pyc", line 64, in build_assets_db File "assets/core.pyc", line 127, in find_assets File "assets/core.pyc", line 156, in scan_asset_folder File "starbound/helpers.pyc", line 213, in open File "starbound/helpers.pyc", line 220, in read_stream File "starbound/btreedb4.pyc", line 119, in initialize File "starbound/sbbf02.pyc", line 89, in initialize AssertionError: Invalid file format

If anyone could help, that'd be great.

You're using a pre-1.0 version of Starcheat with a 1.x version of Starbound. Please see the instructions here for building a 1.x version of Starcheat.

is it possible to do this another way? I cant directly install homebrew because i don't have access to admin on my computer. @medeor413

Unfortunately, I don't use a Mac, so I can't help you there.

You shouldn't need admin rights to install homebrew, as one of it advantage is being sodoless.

In theory you could install starcheat outside homebrew after installing all its dependencies, but the official Qt binaries will require admin rights for Installation. So unless you want to spend hours on building it (and it dependencies) from source I highly recommend getting it via homebrew.

I followed the directions and pasted the line of code into my terminal but when i hit run all it said was that it required administrative rights to run @chrmoritz

can you get a screenshot of that message?

oops, didnt mean to close it

[chrmoritz]

Looks like you didn't uploaded the screenshot correctly, but I would guess that there is already another homebrew installation owned by another user of this machine in /user/local.

What is the output of whoami && ls -la /usr/local/?

[Kohai524]

instead of a screenshot, i'll copy exactly what it says.

and then this is the output of what you wrote.
