Lastlog file not working

Post by coryktm450 »

Since i have installed the new 1.4 update(possibly unrelated), lastlog only shows the information i have pasted below. I have tried several times to re-install, even after finding the user data for mxs and removing it so it wouldn't automatically add the tracks and config to my personal folder. It's not really a big deal except that my pc has been crashing ingame and i would like to check the lastlog to see what's going on...

The last snapshot has a small change that will fix that problem when the game exits normally. There's something else I can do but I was avoiding it because it's a Microsoft extension and I was also afraid it could cause hitches when log messages were written out. (Microsoft's C library requires you to pass an extra non standard option when you open a file to inform it you actually want fflush() to work.)

For me if I delete the lastlog, it will show correctly the next time, but you have to do it every time you restart the game.

Thanks for the help guys. I deleted the contents of the lastlog file and it did show correctly the next time... All though after testing several times, it now seems to display correctly even if i don't delete the contents.
I'll also now update the snapshot and see if we have prevailed.

I have found that the lastlog file only displays the correct information after being deleted while the personal folder is open, with or without the latest snapshot.
