seems to fixed
going to test

this is a duplicated report

-QA Testing-

The install path question was added to make people aware that it is possible to change that,
and make them choose a good place to install the game.
However .. changing that path was always possible and still is

OK .. nothing we here can do about that i do assume.
we are only testing the Launcher itself and the game here ...
i will redirect this to someone who may have a clue about that steam client connection thing.

You did download the new launcher succesfully?
Is the Launcher than not starting ?
or can you go through the entire Launcher process ?
(agree to terms, install directory, login then options screen with launch button)
and it isnt after that starting the Game after hitting Launch ?
if you do have a JAVA JDK installed .. please try to change the custom java path under options to that as a test.
could you be more precise here please ?

Logfiles are being found under starmade/logs .. just delete everything in that logfolder.
then startup the game save a blueprint of the thing that causes the crash when activated.
then crash the game.
now get everything from the logs folder and the saved blueprint folder of your sample, zip that all and attach it here.

Weird stuff with redo and undo and linking happening

removed the embedded java and linked in the options to my installed java version.

I cant reproduce this in anyway on a Win7 or Ubuntu14.04 in 64bit

Quick check .. not on my win764bit at work ... made a twice as long foldername than the sample here ... and it wasnt shortened.

is this happening in singleplayer or multiplayer ?

i did tried it last with download 79 ... will try again when there is a newer one

Blueprint ?
Logfile?

I cant reproduce that
please provide a bluepeint that causes this problem
and the logfile from the crash (from starmade\logs)

checked again
the browse and selection of install location is a bit wobbly on ubuntu ... but it works.
its only a somehow unexpected behaviour for me as primary windows user i think.
given explanation next to browse helps

Starting the Launcher as a fresh install without a Steam client installed crashes when trying to Login.
Skipping the Login part lets you start it just fine.

did a fast test

-validated-

removed the launcher settings and replaced the launcher with newest version and it asks just fine where to install the game.

no response.
rejecting

pushing in queue with logfile info

This then:

add it as a comment

Please start your game again and crash it once more ... then search for the log folder within the Starmade install and add (drag and drop) the latest (with the time stamp from that crash) log.txt.0 file to this Report.

did you already tried to rollback to an older jave version ?

not starting on Ubuntu 14.04 for me
