I'm on Windows and after the latest update clangen just,, wont close? Or even go to the menu? I have to restart my pc to exit it. Thought it might have been because i literally never save between moons, but that didn't help either. Anyone know what might be causing this and how to fix it without deleting the file?
hi! so i tried to enable the full screen option in settings while i was playing, but the game closed me out? i tried to replay it again, but a notification on my screen said something along the lines of “already running game.”
i really like this game and i would love some help solving this issue!
Just press the Windows key and type in task manager. Open what comes up in the first slot. Make sure you're on the Processes tab and then look for Clangen. Right click and hit End Task. You're now a tech wizard! :D
HP Chromebooks run on ChromeOS. To put it a little bluntly, ChromeOS is kinda stinky so programmers don't really support it when making game stuff. You're out of luck my friend; best you stick to the web version.
i am using a linux operating system (or debian) and I try to execute the linux download with terminal, but it keeps saying ' cannot execute binary file' how can i execute it?
this wont work for me i looked thru all the comments for help but they were all the same and didnt work? i really want to play this game but its bad bc i cant please can we have a fix on the game if its that or can i have some help with logging in?
(i used the ClanGen-windows_10.zip (69 MB) download, im not sure if this applies to others) Download the ZIP file and extract the entire "Clangen" folder, using an application such as winzip or 7zip. Just extract it to your desktop.
Once it's extracted, open the folder and scroll until you find the .EXE file called "Clangen.EXE". Run that and you'll be in the game!
is this safe if yes how do i run it when i press clangen and run it it showed me this i extract it all already it just showed "Microsoft defender smartscreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your pc at risk"
I've got a MacBookPro and this does not work at all, I can get into my applications folder but I can't open it from there. It says 'APPLE CAN NOT CHECK IT FOR MALICIOUS SOFTWARE' if you have any suggestions on how to get around this plz let me know cuz the website keeps crashing on me. :(
does it say "macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware"? if you right click+open the app, you should get a different popup which lets you choose to open it anyway
Try right clicking and selecting 'Open' from the menu, if that doesn't work, you should be able to go into your system settings from the apple menu and allow it to run from the 'Privacy and Security' menu. Hope this helps!
I'm not that educated in software, but try uninstalling it and trying again. I believe a file is missing because extracting things can sometimes remove files and it takes a while for them to appear again.
go into system settings -> security -> scroll all the way down -> you should see a pop up that says like “oh we can’t detect clangen waaah” and select open anyways
If you're on mobile, you can play the online web-site version, but I'm pretty sure it's broken atm. Some ppl are saying it just takes a while to load but I'm not a patient person and haven't figured out if that's true yet. 🫠
hey, I'm unsure what version of windows I have, but when I go to open the file, it just gives me a list of like assets of something? I've tried all 3 windows files there are, and all the same thing. I don't understand?
Hey, when I used the online version, it just showed a black screen and won't even load at all, is it a glitch? Cause it happens whenever I change the settings for it.
it'll show the opening tab and it'll show the game choice and the folder for applications but the game choice has a circle and a line one bit like i can't play it.
Hey, I'm on mobile and every time I make a new clan it shuts down my game for like 12 days ._. Ive been trying to turn it back on for a week now and every time it just stays a black screen and does nothing. Any solutions/suggestions/similar problem?
Not sure, there are only a few devs who work on the web version and it’s been broken for at least a few weeks, so it will probably be a while unfortunately.
hello, im a bit confused on how to download this it says i have it in my downloads but it dose not let me do any thing with it nor can i extract it. can someone please help
I think there is technically a way to download on Android but it's not recommended. Better to stick to a computer if possible; it's a heck of a lot easier and less convoluted.
ain’t no way I got a fresh clan and now I got 12 pages of cats no joke. bro I can’t even move why is this happening is there a way to delete a clan or just live with it. even outside the clan at the main menu I’m frozen why. or how do I overwrite it, just making a new clan.
Um, is it intentionally or a mistake that I can make dead cats mates??? I just realized I could do this...Yeah, my StarClan cat and DF cat are mates now??? Can they have kits????
you can, i consider it a roleplaying option and no they cannot have kits once they are dead. (as far as i am aware) for example if you want to roleplay it as 'these two cats were mates in life and were separated in death by their actions in life, they still meet up and the starclan border and consider eachother mates even now'
Hi! I've been playing for a couple days now and the cats recently encountered events that put them into shock. It says they've been hurt for "1 moon" but it's been several moons now and they're still in a state of shock and can't be used for patrols. Is there something I'm needing to do, is it oddly timed out, or did a bug happen? It's been 13 moons for three cats and 11 for the other.
Even when sending out patrols to gather herbs and they bring back the one that specifically says it helps cats with shock, they never get better. Could it be because I'm playing Classic Mode?
yup- classic mode cats aren't meant to have conditions. There was a bug that would give them the shock condition, and because classic mode isn't supposed to have conditions, they can't recover. I'd suggest joining the discord to ask for help removing the conditions.
Could someone help me find the game in my files pls? I found the executable file on my pc, it is called 'clangen' with a paper plane icon, it asked me if I wanted to execute the file, I clicked the execute button but it wouldn't do anything. (I'm on a raspberry pi 4 with linux 32-bit OS) Someone pls help me I've tried looking it up everywhere but nobody on the internet has posted anything about it for Linux

can you possibly make an ios version?
I don't think it's possible for them to make a mobile version due to the way the game is set up
Yep, and they said they wouldn't.
I'm downloading on windows8 and got all the way through but when I went to open it it said python.38 dll not found

It would be easier to get help if you join the Discord :)
How do i open my last save on the updated version?
Do you mean transferring saves?
hi! so i tried to enable the full screen option in settings while i was playing, but the game closed me out? i tried to replay it again, but a notification on my screen said something along the lines of “already running game.”
i really like this game and i would love some help solving this issue!
Try force quitting the game in task manager then open it again. That might help
okay thank you, do you know how to do that though? i’m not a big tech person lol
Just press the Windows key and type in task manager. Open what comes up in the first slot. Make sure you're on the Processes tab and then look for Clangen. Right click and hit End Task. You're now a tech wizard! :D
thank you so much! i actually managed to fix it before you replied - but i’ll use this for future reference :)
You can also open the task manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc ! (the more you know!)
im not sure which one to download either or if i even can
how do i download it on HP chromebook ? i tried linux but i dont know how
HP Chromebooks run on ChromeOS. To put it a little bluntly, ChromeOS is kinda stinky so programmers don't really support it when making game stuff. You're out of luck my friend; best you stick to the web version.
you can download on Chromebook- I'd recommend joining the discord to ask for help with it if it's not working :)
i am using a linux operating system (or debian) and I try to execute the linux download with terminal, but it keeps saying ' cannot execute binary file' how can i execute it?
Which file are you trying to execute? The one that runs the game is called "main" (without the quotes)
is the discord link going to be unpaused any time soon?
It's open now
this wont work for me i looked thru all the comments for help but they were all the same and didnt work? i really want to play this game but its bad bc i cant please can we have a fix on the game if its that or can i have some help with logging in?
(i used the ClanGen-windows_10.zip (69 MB) download, im not sure if this applies to others)
Download the ZIP file and extract the entire "Clangen" folder, using an application such as winzip or 7zip. Just extract it to your desktop.
Once it's extracted, open the folder and scroll until you find the .EXE file called "Clangen.EXE". Run that and you'll be in the game!
i also used windows and i have already done what you said it doesnt work
make sure you're getting the right download! if you're on Mac, the windows download isn't going to work :)
is this safe if yes how do i run it when i press clangen and run it it showed me this i extract it all already it just showed "Microsoft defender smartscreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your pc at risk"
did i download the right file i downloaded "
ClanGen-windows_10.zip69 MB"
It is safe to download, I just downloaded it myself.
Download the ZIP file and extract the entire "Clangen" folder, using an application such as winzip or 7zip. Just extract it to your desktop.
Once it's extracted, open the folder and scroll until you find the .EXE file called "Clangen.EXE". Run that and you'll be in the game!
Just click the button that says "Run anyway".
thx for all the tutorials on how to download(aimed to the comments)
my small ahh brain stopped working
I was able to download the game
is the discord closed? my computer says its unable to accept invite
It's open now
How do I maximize the clan gen game? like how can i play it full screen?
There's a button in the top-right corner of settings to toggle full screen!
Anyone know when cruel season comes out, or if I have to re download it to get the update? Love this game btw!
It's still in dev, might be a while before it's complete.
I've got a MacBookPro and this does not work at all, I can get into my applications folder but I can't open it from there. It says 'APPLE CAN NOT CHECK IT FOR MALICIOUS SOFTWARE' if you have any suggestions on how to get around this plz let me know cuz the website keeps crashing on me. :(
does it say "macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware"? if you right click+open the app, you should get a different popup which lets you choose to open it anyway

everytime i go to open it this error pops up, i use amd radeon software to run this, should i uninstall and try again?
I'm not that educated in software, but try uninstalling it and trying again. I believe a file is missing because extracting things can sometimes remove files and it takes a while for them to appear again.
how do i play after downloading? :) (im on windows 11 btw)
Go into files, right click on the zip file, press Extract, once it's extracted go into the uncompressed folder and double click on 'clangen.exe'
i tried but it didnt work for me
How did it not work for you?
my computer says you need to update it bc it can't search it plz fix this ty
go into system settings -> security -> scroll all the way down -> you should see a pop up that says like “oh we can’t detect clangen waaah” and select open anyways
How do I even play the game after dowloading it
when you download, you should get a .zip file. right-click and press "extract all", then go to the not-.zip file and find clangen.exe and play.
Im on mobile.. I dont understand?
sadly, the game doesn't work on mobile atm
If you're on mobile, you can play the online web-site version, but I'm pretty sure it's broken atm. Some ppl are saying it just takes a while to load but I'm not a patient person and haven't figured out if that's true yet. 🫠
Can you get clan gen on Chromebook?
yes, there should be instructions in the discord
Ok, but i do not have access to discord
hey, I'm unsure what version of windows I have, but when I go to open the file, it just gives me a list of like assets of something? I've tried all 3 windows files there are, and all the same thing. I don't understand?
you have to find the Clangen.exe file! it should be in there somewhere :)
Hey, when I used the online version, it just showed a black screen and won't even load at all, is it a glitch? Cause it happens whenever I change the settings for it.
The web version is currently broken
its not! it just takes a while to load :)
you may just have to reload the website :)
I am, it just shows a black screen.
And I reloaded it 3 times already.
huh, maybe its loading? idk
The same thing happens to me on my iPad, and I don’t think it’ll be fixed anytime soon
It won't let me play it after downloading on my mac.
right click open and make sure it's in your applications folder :)
It lets me open it in applications but it won't show where to play it.
if it opens you should be able to play it? if you keep having issues you might want to join discord so you can send screenshots
it'll show the opening tab and it'll show the game choice and the folder for applications but the game choice has a circle and a line one bit like i can't play it.
I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out what you're talking about- is it possible to send a screenshot, either here or on discord?
How to add things to cats history
There is a second tab underneath it, where you can out notes/write history. Just press the little check mark to write and save
ty
i appreciate the help
Hey, I'm on mobile and every time I make a new clan it shuts down my game for like 12 days ._. Ive been trying to turn it back on for a week now and every time it just stays a black screen and does nothing. Any solutions/suggestions/similar problem?
Well I don't think the games fit to run on mobile? unless they've added it very recently
Yeah, the web version is not made to support mobile and the devs are not planning on making an app anytime soon, sorry be the bearer of bad new :[
Unfortunately, if you're using the web version it's currently broken.
Oh, Ty! That explains it. Do you know when it will be back up?
Not sure, there are only a few devs who work on the web version and it’s been broken for at least a few weeks, so it will probably be a while unfortunately.
its not, it just takes a long time to load
you can’t download the newest version but you can get a version that isn’t as good but still the same mechanics
how do you get it
is there a way to download on iPad or is that not possible
no, Clangen cannot be downloaded on an iPad, and there are no plans to make it a mobile game anytime soon.
hello, im a bit confused on how to download this it says i have it in my downloads but it dose not let me do any thing with it nor can i extract it. can someone please help
Same!
Try redownloading, you should be able to extract it and play. If you still can't figure it out, join the Discord server.
Drag it out of the downloads onto your desktop, then right click and look for extract all, idk what else could be wrong :P
I really love that they added family trees and more backgrounds! I really love the game! I hope you can add more soon!
veo que esta la opción en español pero no se implementa, hay algún estimado para verlo en accion?
¡Hola! Podría ser capaz de ayudarte. ¿Puede decirme qué está pasando?
A pesar de seleccionar el idioma en español, el juego sigue en ingles
Hola, espero que estés bien. Como se mencionó anteriormente en la pagina del juego, esta función aún no ha sido implementada.
Can this be downloaded on Android or is this only for computers?
I think there is technically a way to download on Android but it's not recommended. Better to stick to a computer if possible; it's a heck of a lot easier and less convoluted.
can you tell me a way to download it on android
Unfortunately no, because I don't know how :)
oh ok that’s fine
ain’t no way I got a fresh clan and now I got 12 pages of cats no joke. bro I can’t even move why is this happening is there a way to delete a clan or just live with it. even outside the clan at the main menu I’m frozen why. or how do I overwrite it, just making a new clan.
go into your switch clan screen and click the X next to the clan name. That should delete it.
alternatively, dead cats create much less lag and problems than living cats, so you can go on a killing spree and that might also help.
Um, is it intentionally or a mistake that I can make dead cats mates??? I just realized I could do this...Yeah, my StarClan cat and DF cat are mates now??? Can they have kits????
you can, i consider it a roleplaying option and no they cannot have kits once they are dead. (as far as i am aware) for example if you want to roleplay it as 'these two cats were mates in life and were separated in death by their actions in life, they still meet up and the starclan border and consider eachother mates even now'
but that is up to you
thanks! I was so confused :(((

Ah okay! Thank you!
this happened to me too, xD i just retired them since they were fairly old
Is there a way to make clanmates kill each other?
Click the cat you want to kill, go to the tab marked "Dangerous" and click "Kill cat".
make sure your killer is bloodthirsty, make them hate each other via a mediator, and then hope for the best. Murder is a lot of rng
how do I make them hate each other using a meditator? I’m really confused. I have a meditator, but I can’t change any relationship with different cats
there's a little symbol above the mediator if you look on the Cat List. If you click it, it'll let you sabotage or mediate 2 cats' relationship.
Thank you!
