Im having a horrible problem with this too. this is what im getting after the diag.
diag
? JVM version: 1.8.0_301-b09
? Game directory does not exist
Please use the ‘gamedir’ command to help the editor find your game installation directory
? File does not exist: database\database.arz
Cannot find file: database/database.arz. Please set the gamedir properly and make sure all GD game files are present in the game installation directory
? File does not exist: resources\Text_EN.arc
Cannot find file: Text_EN.arc. Please set the gamedir properly and make sure all GD game files are present in the game installation directory
? File does not exist: resources\Items.arc
Cannot find file: Items.arc. Please set the gamedir properly and make sure all GD game files are present in the game installation directory
Oops! Please fix those errors before using the editor!
and when it starts up
gd-edit 0.2.0-SNAPSHOT [build 11ff8f6]
save directories:
c:\program files (x86)\steam\userdata\83125510\219990\remote\save\user
c:\program files (x86)\steam\userdata\83125510\219990\remote\save\main
Game directory cannot be located
The following locations were checked:
c:/program files (x86)/steam\steamapps\common\Grim Dawn
Some editor functions such as db queries and changing items and equipment won’t work properly.
Looks like you’re running steam. Is GD installed somewhere other than the C: drive? If that’s the case, would you mind sending me a copy of a file from your machine?
This is the file the editor is reading to figure out where you’ve configured your steam libraries folders, so it can figure out where GD is installed. The format of this file seem to have changed recently. While it doesn’t crash the editor or anything, it does stop it from locating GD properly.
Anyway, I thought I fixed it with this latest build, but apparently, it wasn’t quite enough. It’d be a great help to be able to see how/why the editor is failing.
I’m not sure if the file can be posted on the forums directly. If not, please use dropbox or whatever file-sharing service you’re familiar with.
Well i feel foolish. I’m not use to looking up where everything is located, file wise, on my computer. and the above gamedir is fine. had to connect it to my G:. I’m such a fool! lol Thanks for always helping us all out on here. I always check back from time to time, and especially if I’m having issues.
for me still it doesn’t work,it couldnt find my gamedir and i know for sure my gamedir is “D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Grim Dawn” i think my editor’s version is out of date if so where can i download the newest one from?
To get the latest version of the editor, you can run the command “update” from within the editor. It’ll download the new version and relaunch. You can also manually grab a new copy using the link in the first post. The link will always take you to the latest build of the editor.
It’s very slimmed down versus what your program can do. It’s just meant to be a quick easy reference or tool for those that are not comfortable with command line at all. All credit still goes to you!!!
I’m having issues again. Trying to load the editor has it pop up for a second then it just vanishes.
I’m lost on how to fix it. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
