itch.io

alright! knowing my luck it probably won't work so I'll copy the savefiles like a billion times over

something similar happened to me, but when I clicked on settings the app's icon changed and it wouldn't open even though the computer said it was an executable, I've never seen it happen to anybody else and I couldn't fix it since.

btw which OS u on? bc it happened to me in macos high sierra

try copying the save files over and reinstalling the game, then u can put the savefiles exactly where u found them. I can't guarantee it working, but it probably will. it's better to research the topic before u try anything tho.

I found them in the _MACOSX folder, in the saves folder inside it

The game still won’t open either

also question: since the computer thinks the clangen file displayed in the dock is an executable, would running the clangen.exe file fix the issue? I didn’t try anything that I didn’t know its function, so maybe it’s simple as that? I don’t want to reinstall it because convincing the computer to run it in the first place was hard enough

I’m on version 2.7.5, and when I checked the game’s files again to try and find a solution I found that my budcats.txt file had turned into a .json file- this is really confusing

also I checked my cats that are listed in the .txt file and they all look fine with no visible signs of corruption or anything like that, so I’m pretty sure what I’m about to try will work, but as I said I’ve never done anything like this nor know what I’m doing, so I might make the problem worse

haha don’t u love when clangen crashes when u click settings and the computer doesn’t even acknowledge it, then the game decides the default mac os app icon is way better and refuses to work in any way???? Totally normal move by the game right there, like who would that possibly happen to couldn’t be me

This is not a joke this is a cry for help I’m gonna reinstall the game and put my savefile, which I will copy and backup like a million times, in the exact spot I found it BUT Idk what I’m doing so I’m afraid of losing BudClan forever- help pls bc I don’t have discord

I’m on macOS high sierra (ancient Ik) and uh if yk how to fix this pls help me out

surprisingly, I couldn’t find anything on the internet relating to my problem so I am now convinced that I’m the unluckiest clangen player there is :D
