Game crashes on startup (Mac)

[Yonderwolf]

This game use to work for my computer but ever since the update that's supposed to fix bugs it made the game impossible to start up. From what I see is that it tries to start it up, but immidietly backs out of the game and gives me a note saying (Game quit unexpectidly) any fix for this by chance?

Hi! Unfortunately, there are currently issues with Mac that will take us some time to resolve. Some may be worked around, though – please see more info here! https://trello.com/c/yVXzx00A/287-crash-on-startup-on-mac-workaround-included

I have tried this method even though I have no mods installed or subscribed it didn't work. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the game it does not do anything.

Sorry to hear that! In that case, it sounds like it's probably related to the changes Apple has introduced, also described in the same card. Unfortunately, the most I can say about those for the moment is that we're working on it!

It seems I'm also having this issue, but there are not solutions posted on that trello card? The game was working fine earlier today, but crashed while I was setting up a server, and now it crashes on startup, before even opening a window. What can I do?

Oh, here is the crash report it generates:

Barotrauma Client crash report (generated on 6/16/2020 11:26:34 PM)


Barotrauma seems to have crashed. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Also worth noting the game opens fine on my macbook, running the same OS as my desktop, but my laptop isn't capable of running the game.

@hazza049, the problem you were having should be fixed for the next update! You can see the relevant ticket in our issue tracker here https://github.com/Regalis11/Barotrauma/issues/3122, and as a workaround, deleting "Data/hashcache.txt" in the game files should allow the game to launch correctly.

Ah fantastic, thank you for your reply, and the service to the game!
