Need a bit of help

[Humpwell]

So i bought this app, started for the first time, it was fine. Then i started to make a map, saved it to continue later, but now the app wont boot up. It is stuck on the screen, where it says "Made with Godot".

I uninstalled it, reinstalled it, but no luck :(

Any help would be appreciated

Hi!

I'm very sorry!

In almost all cases I know of, the graphics card is the decisive factor. Especially the VRAM (memory) of the graphics card.
The load on the VRAM increases with the graphics settings and every application you start.

The graphics are automatically set once at the beginning.

There is a config file in:
users\user\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Canvas of Kings

This can also be read by humans.
For some people only the window mode seems to work. Try setting is_windowed to true in the config file and restart.

Or delete the config file and restart my tool.

I hope it helps! Thanks a lot!

I'm running into a similar issue, but on Mac. I cannot find the config file anywhere within the "AppData" equivalent folder "Application Support". Is there another solution for the Mac version? I have been unable to boot past the "Made in Godot" screen at all.

Hi
Sorry.
What kind of Mac are you using?
The first start can take longer because the shaders are loaded. Can't you find the folder or don't you have a Canvas of Kings folder?

I'm using a 2019 Macbook Pro. I've tried to start multiple times and it gets stuck on the grey icon screen for about 3 minutes each time before crashing. I can find the folder using the browse local files function on Steam, but all it has is the shortcut for the game (which I can open up by using the "show contents" function). However I cannot find the correct file within those file folders. There is a "userdata" folder within the Steam folder, but I cannot find a folder for Canvas of Kings, although that is where I would expect it to be as there is a "Godot" file within the Luck Be a Landlord folder.

Hi!

Sorry to hear that.

As far as I could find out on the internet, the 2019 MacBook Pro has an Intel CPU (+iGPU) and maybe an AMD Radeon 5300M or 5500M. Unfortunately, I have little experience with this. I myself use a MacBook with M2.
My tool requires Vulkan. This is provided by Apple/MacOS via an additional software interface.
Can you update the graphics card(s)? The drivers are supplied by the manufacturer.
Can you choose whether to work with the Radeon or the integrated Intel graphics card?

A Canvas of Kings folder is created in the Godot folder. First shader files and then the config file are created in this folder.
If the folder does not even exist, then it is probably due to the graphics card. That's why you can't start it.
At the first start it may take a little longer because the shaders are loaded and created.
The folder path on macOS:
/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/Canvas of Kings

I hope I can help you.

Many thanks and best regards
Hannes
