tModLoader doesn't start

[Minor]

It doesn't start at all. No errors there, just won't start. The same thing was with Terraria itself, but there was fix to launch manualy from .exe file in the game's folder. But with tModLoader it doesn't help.

[Minor]

I press the button, a few seconds Steam thinks what it was launched and then just nothing. My log everytime the same:

I tried everything already. I also reinstall the game a few times, manually install Mf .NET 4.8 and tried to clean the launch parameters. PLEASE HELP! Devs, fix this hell please!

Same issue here

[Minor]

Sorry if I spamming or something, but there was a new patch and it won't start as before. Just "launching" (Steam) status, then few seconds, off.

[LillCrazy]

hmm simmilar problem here, if i start it it..shows me the steam shop page for tmodlaoder and just doesnt start, no matter if i use steam or the .exe file, no errors,not starting -.-

[Minor]

Now it starts - despite the fact that through Steam, both the game client and the tModLoader do not start, the .exe file of tModLoader started manually now, after today's update! Thank you devs for your work, very grateful!))

[Zairou]

I reinstalled it and it works now for me

Thx, for your feedback! I'll check it then update 1.4 comes, because now I don't remember what's what anymore.

[Epnetic]

I'm getting the same issue too

[Вељаtz]

I'm having the same issue
It wont start, I remember that once I opened it and after 2-3 hours it was still displaying that I'm playing it on my profile, but the game wasn't running.
I discovered that when I run the game many times at the same time, then the game sometimes opens
Also yesterday it started displaying that I dont have connection, while I'm having it. Tried reinstalling and what not, still the same

[Pigon]

Yeah had the same problem but I found out how to fix it for me after i saw sombody say it here https://issueexplorer.com/issue/tModLoader/tModLoader/1840

[Doomdestine]

Hey, pigon, the site your linking is dead, and tmodloader won't open no matter what i do, so can you try to explain how they fixed it?

Edit: Nvm the issue fixed itself.

What was the fix?

[Ja morants comfort pistol]

i uninstalled and reinstalled on another hard drive and it worked, ive been having the same problem and this fixxed it for ,e

[Minor]

Of course, I lost hope a long time ago, became disappointed and abandoned tmodloader... but maybe someone over the years has found a solution that would suit me too... (of course not, but still)

Just for info:
For this period, the errors looks like those:
1) This occurs when starting via steam:
The message in the error window is: "SteamAPI.Init failed. Try logging out of Steam and restarting it."

In the Natives.log:

Setting breakpad minidump AppID = 105600
SteamInternal_SetMinidumpSteamID:  Caching Steam ID:  *numbers* [API loaded no]

In the terrariasteamclient.log:

[18:34:13.633] [Main Thread/INFO] [TerrariaSteamClient]: Working Directory: *\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\tModLoader
[18:34:13.640] [Main Thread/INFO] [TerrariaSteamClient]: Args: *\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\tModLoader\tModLoader.dll -terrariasteamclient 1576
[18:34:13.640] [Main Thread/INFO] [TerrariaSteamClient]: Setting steam app id to 105600
[18:34:13.640] [Main Thread/INFO] [TerrariaSteamClient]: SteamAPI.Init()
[18:34:13.747] [Main Thread/FATAL] [TerrariaSteamClient]: SteamAPI.Init() failed
[18:34:13.748] [Main Thread/DEBUG] [TerrariaSteamClient]: Send: init_failed

2) This occurs when launching the .bat file directly:
No any error window.

Only in the Natives.log:

Setting breakpad minidump AppID = 1281930
SteamInternal_SetMinidumpSteamID:  Caching Steam ID: *numbers* [API loaded no]

P.S.

If anything, I've been familiar with this solution for a long time and that it helped some, but not me. I've tried to fix tmodloader for myself a lot in the past.
