Non-workshop mod RunTime error - WALP - 02-22-2016 http://prntscr.com/a6doop FUGA a mod of mine has been having a lot of technical issues for users downloading from moddb rather than steam workshop, but I have had trouble getting information that might help me resolve those issues, and since the mod has worked fine in all of my tests, I have started to strongly suspect issues with the implementation of non-workshop mods in itself. A player recently sent me the error linked above, does anybody know what this might mean, especially in a SOMA mod context. I have asked the player to send me specs, hpl.log and launcher.log as well, and will add them to this thread later if I receive them. RE: Non-workshop mod RunTime error - Abion47 - 02-22-2016 It means the game crashed. That's pretty much all the information you can glean from that dialog box alone. So yeah, if you can get that log information, that might paint a clearer picture of what's going on. RE: Non-workshop mod RunTime error - Romulator - 02-22-2016 Yep - Runtimes are generally "The application didn't load" or "The application crashed". hpl.log will pretty much tell you everything you need to know. The only thing the crash log is good for is telling the user what processes are running in the background, potentially to communicate if another process is causing errors to the game. Of course, it has its perks on detecting pirates, but I haven't quite figured out the pattern yet~ RE: Non-workshop mod RunTime error - WALP - 03-01-2016 alright finally got some information to work with, I think I may located some things that might be the issue, but I am not quite certain about the specifics.

Something which might also be an issue is that his hpl.log from the FUGA mod folder states it is version 1.00, but my own hpl.log states it should be version 1.10 It might have to do with his game not being properly updated, but I doubt it since GOG should auto update as far as I am aware. RE: Non-workshop mod RunTime error - WALP - 03-02-2016 BUMP: I now have confirmation from the player, that the log above does indeed cut off after creating engine modules.
