Uncaught InvalidStateError: Failed to execute 'drawImage' on 'CanvasRenderingContext2D': The HTMLImageElement provided is in the 'broken' state
Got this error right after the start options
This is a known issue, but the cause is unknown. Generally if you try running it again, it will clear up, but occasionally it takes a couple of tries.
This is one I've reached out to the game engine vendor about, but no real luck yet.
Googling the RPGmaker forums suggests a version conflict, if the version the client is running is newer than the version used to create the project?
i'm having this issue, and it's extremely tedious to need to quit the game every single time i change zones and relauch the game, sometimes multiple times in order to successfully change areas.
The error message in the messages you googled may be of the same error message but I don't see how that can be the cause of the issue. There's not a distributable runtime like there used to be with games written with RPG Maker VX.
I suspect it has something to do with the encryption scheme that I used when deploying it.
yeah... turns out there's no RTP since MV bundles the shared files with the game. So it's all dev-speak and without learning to code in MV/javascript, i'm never gonna figure it out. sucks, unfortunately.
there was another popup about a MV file that indicated an outdated file which may have thrown off my sleep addled brain, but the invalid error i have no knowledge in MV how to help with, so i guess i'm stuck with just.. .being unable to run the game.
Was it about an older/newer version of nw.js? Something about user profile?
Go to %LOCALAPPDATA%
Delete the nwjs\ folder (it's up to you if you decide to make a backup or not)
If you also see a folder named KADOKAWA, go into that, then to RPGMV (this may not be here since you don't have RPG Maker, but it could be because it's possible that maybe it puts the folders there when you run an RPG Maker created game. I don't know for sure)
If so, then delete the Web Data and Web Data-journal files
If you don't have those files, then deleting the nwjs folder will probably resolve it although from all reports I've seen, it does not have any effect on the game.
