Blank screen after about 15 seconds

[Siphalor]

Hello ladies and gentlemen,

Since the last update (1.3.12) the game screen freezes after about 15 seconds after start. Before the blank screen everything works just fine.
I was unable to locate any log file but if you can tell me where I can find it, I'll provide it.

I really like the game and hope that's not a heavy bug

Sorry to hear that!
You should be able to find the log file in the game folder. Please also let us know your hardware/os.

Thanks

Hello Riad,

I found the log file (tce-log.txt) and disabled all mods manually in their mod.hjsons.

It's also quite a bit random when the blank screen occurs but it's after between 5 and 15 seconds.
The game then doesn't respond to any input anymore when the screen gets blank.

Thanks in advance

Hello,
Unfortunately that log didn't contain any useful information. Could you try creating a shortcut to the game exe, and then adding '-console' (without quotes) do the 'Target' in the shortcut properties (this is for windows).

You should then see the game start with an extra infobar on the right side of the screen. There should be a console tab - click on that. Once the black screen happens, right-click on the text in the console tab, select Save As, and save the file and send it to me at isaac@maschinen-mensch.com.

Thanks.
