itch.io

So many it was discouraging, to be honest. For starters, the gym area went to a black screen when I tried to load up tutorials and forced a hard reset, even though I could hear my character walking around in the background. The next reset, I decided to wing it and went forward, and it crashed during the wave combat section. The next reset, it didn't register my WASD keys. The reset after that, I managed to get all the way to the end (though an enemy flew up to the top of the level and wouldn't come back down during the wave section, only for him to vanish and the arena to skip wave two entirely and jump straight to three), and when I went into the portal at the end of the level nothing happened. My character vanished, but the game didn't change screens or start loading anything else, and I could no longer open the menu or use any controls.

The game is just entirely broken, really. It barely works at all.

Okay, something has indeed gone horribly wrong.  I reinstalled Strive from the .zip I downloaded yesterday from the Itch.io page, and then disabled Aric's mod (which was tagged as active in the mod screen despite having not done the replacements in this new game version), then reset the game.  When I loaded it up again, it gave me the same errors.

Edit:  I deleted my appdata folder and reinstalled from scratch, and it seems to be working now.  Something I did differently this time was deleting the 'important files' from their location inside of the mod folder after I moved them.  In addition, I think I had...some kind of mods left over from an earlier installation of the game I forgot about, because previously I had other things in there that weren't just 'Constants.'  It was probably a conflict of some kind there, and my bad.

New errors appear when I try to access different options.  Like clicking New Game causes the newgame_creator_reset and advance_stage error, and clicking mods gives me the 'invalid get index 'setfolders'" error.

Whenever I replace the vanilla game's mainmenu.scn, it immediately breaks the game and makes it so that I cannot load games, start new games, or even look at the active mods.  I don't have this problem until the mod becomes active.  Any idea what's going on?
