Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Versions:
What happens:
When I try and open the Field Manual, Minecraft freezes and then crashes. I have tried reinstalling and reloading. Nothing thus far has fixed this. Please let me know if this is something wrong with the mod or just my pc. Thanks.
What should happen:
Field Manual should open and Minecraft shouldn't crash.
Logs (if necessary):
Additional Comments:
This would be one of those occasions where Logs are necessary.
What version of Java are you on? The one bundled with MC (Java 8u25) is known to have a ton of issues.
8u171 works perfectly for me.
This crash also happen to me
Can someone post the log at least?!
What language is being used, I may just have to make it crash myself >_>
I don't have logs because it's not really a crash: my game just freeze indefinitely :/
I tried to open the manual in French, once with a right click and another time with a right click + Shift.
Thanks!! I’ll look into it when I can (on a big vacation)
This happened on Geolosys 1.9.1, but on 1.9.2 this doesn't happen for me anymore - can someone confirm?
I didn't specify but this happened to me in Geolosys 1.9.2. And even in English language open the manual cause a crash.
Is it related to Java version or something like that?
Quite Possibly. I've opened the guide in Chinese (simplified), French and English to see how it handles when book translations are and aren't available. It works fine either way; English is the fallback... so I'm genuinely confused.
I'm using 1.9.2 and opened the guide in English (I haven't used any other language, can't confirm for the others), and it only freezes. I have to crash it manually to get out of it. WTH?
Edit: Okay, just a work-around until this is fixed. You mind if I make a wiki page here with the contents of the manual so that people can read it w/o having to open it? It may be a bit inconvenient, but it should help for now. Also, testing with java 8 u172 to see if it fixes things. If so, advise that everyone update their java version manually, as 172 won't be auto-updated to.
The crash is due to OptiFine, I just removed it from my mods and the manual works perfectly in English (where the book is translated) and also in French (where the book is not)
Really now? That's weird, no idea how Optifine would mess with this mod,
though can you pinpoint a particular setting that causes this?
Edit: Just made an issue in the OF github. Hopefully sp614x will take a look.
Huh, it probably has to do with the font renderer I’m using now for the Unicode font.. closing because it’s not something I have control over — sorry all :(
And yes, I’ll make a plaintext wiki probably on my website or here. I’ll comment here once it’s up :)
Optifine cannot support Unicode font, so reverting to your old font would honestly be better to do. You could still keep the clean code and the custom texture, just revert the font.
Also, I think I narrowed the cause down to be potentially Optifine's Custom Font option.
@Yanis48Try turning off the custom font option then right-clicking the manual.@darthvader45I tried it on my environment with Custom Font option disabled and it still froze up. Only removing optifine entirely seems to prevent it so far (i haven't tried every setting yet...)As a temporary workaround (possibly), try testing it with Geolosys 1.9, the
last 1.12.2 update before the manual was changed. That should at least
allow it to work with Optifine.
So, since the Optifine dev is known to not give 2 craps about incompatibilities (and neither are other modders... but that's for another day), I've pushed a "fix" that allows you to use the default font that didn't break the game, previously.
Nice, thank you dear dev!
Thank you so much, I really like the fact that you still care about us
minecrafters. I am quite happy. Sure, it does make it uglier (in your
opinion, imho default MC font is just fine, and gets changed via resource
pack anyways), but with a resource pack it'll still look awesome because
any book that uses the default MC font has the font changed to what the
resource pack uses, as it literally replaces the font in-game.
Golden rule in Minecraft: Never dig straight down.
