Every time I go to hyperspace my game ctd
« on: January 14, 2022, 04:53:16 PM »

Every time I go to hyperspace my game ctd. I tried using the console command mod to teleport to a different system, then go to hyperspace but the game still ctd. What should I do to fix this?

Hi - I'm sorry about the trouble!

What operating system are you on?

Does the game produce an error message, and is there a stack trace at the end of starsector.log after it crashes?

Is there an hs_err_pidXXXX.log file (where XXXX is a bunch of numbers) generated for each crash? If so, it would be useful to see its contents, but this file would only show up for crashes that don't produce a stack trace in starsector.log.

Ok I tried replying twice already with my log file and its not going through so I don't know whats going on

The error is "FATAL: null". I'm assuming I cant post the entire log since it hasnt worked twice so is there some part you want me to post? or?

The stack trace is at the end, but it might be simpler to just email me the log file.

Thank you! Fortunately, easy solution: update to the latest version of the game; you can download it here. You should be able to just run the installer and have it install over top of your current version.
