Issues & Support
This discussion was created to solve issues with the mod. The mod has been tested on different PCs and in multiplayer, so if any issues occur, it might be on your side and not the mods fault. You can post your problems here and add an error message from the console, I will try to help you solving the issues.

Hello Abdrhmanarar,

the chapter "Magma Eater" is not available in the reworked edition of this mod. I assume you are trying to play the old version of the mod "The Sirian Star". I do not support the old version anymore. But the the error message you posted said, the large lava elemental mod is missing. Please subscribe to the "Large Lava Elemental" mod from the workshop. You can search for it with the mentioned name and should be able to find it.

Please make sure to NOT SUBSCRIBE to both versions of "The Sirian Star", as it will lead to errors. You have to choose one version you want to play and deactivate the other version in the meantime.

Cannot load level 7. Apparently, there's an error message "Cannot load femalegnaardebris" or something.

Hello artzpiip,

I will investigate that when I am back home. Could you send the exact error message which is shown in the console? It may be a missing mod, have you made sure to subscribe to all necessary mods? A friend of mine tested it before release and it worked fine. I will analyse it anyway.

In the meantime, please try to subscribe to every mod listed in the dependency list. You can use the collection for that to make it easier. I know that some mods are mentioned by me as optional, please subscribe to them, too. It may be that they are not as optional as i thought they would be. In that case, I would change the mod description.

Upon starting the first level the game crashes and the following error message appears:

Cannot load
'Content/SeriousSam4/Levels/RDLC/Presets/Effects/Weapons/BurnerParticles/LaserPointer.bmf': Cannot open file
Content/SeriousSam4/Levels/RDLC/Presets/Effects/Weapons/BurnerParticles/LaserPointer.bmf.

I have only Sirian Star Reworked as well all of it's required and optional mods installed.
I have tried verifying game files.
Mod worked prior to new update.

Thank you for the feedback. It seems that it could be the same issue artzpiip mentioned, as your console mentions the package "RDLC", too. I don't know where this comes from, but I will check it when I am back home
Struppi  [developer] Jan 31, 2023 @ 5:57am 
Could you try to unsubscribe to all mods that are not needed for this campaign? it would help me verify if it could be an issue with another mod which changes enemy behaviors or something like that. Do you have other mods enabled?
artzpiip Jan 31, 2023 @ 6:16am 
Maybe. I have to check later. Though can't really check later.

Not sure if this is directed to me also but i'll give quick feedback. I went nuclear and uninstalled all mods and reinstalled only what's necessary for the mod to work. Still got the same messsage.
Struppi  [developer] Jan 31, 2023 @ 8:55am 
Thank you. A friend of mine did the same and also got the error. Trying to fix it now. I will release a fix as soon as possible
Struppi  [developer] Jan 31, 2023 @ 10:01am 
I found the issue and fixed it. See update section for more information. You can try again now. If you still have issues, please let me know about them :)

Sorry but the hotfix didn't work. It still crashes the game. Same error.
Question: Did you rename all the levels? Do I have to reset level statistics?

By the way, all 3 new reworked levels have the same issue.
Also, can't really test if it works with only workshop packaged specific to this levelpack enabled due to gamer's terrible search.

I renamed all levels and they should be locked in order to avoid errors with level statistics and savegames. How are you able to test the later levels? ;)

I released the hotfix yesterday and it worked for two friends of mine, who had the error before and now do not have the error anymore. Can you try to resubscribe to the mod in order to get the newest version? If it still occurs, I have to investigate further
