I got also a crash with 0.14.1 with Star's decal mod.

System.Exception: Error building text geometry for string: "plain-000&025-02" ---> System.Xml.XmlException

The reason is he used special character in the file's names like & and %.

Brank

Lafiel I think that's the problem. but I couldn't find the crash log, I might have to deliberately crash to get the log

Lafiel

Brank Yeah, same error, same problem. Cosmoteer doesn't like special characters especially these that represent system command functions on various OS.
Star simply f*ked up when naming these files. He should have named and ordered them like vanilla and then add the extra bits and use something like + instead of all the above.

That_Angry_Man

Didn't realize adding a & in the name would crash the game. Will fix that when I roll out the new update to the mod.

Lafiel

That_Angry_Man Don't forget %. Not long ago it would also (and still does for code, part names) when - is used. - is a common DOS/Terminal option command. Underscore is safest but - is fine for images, too.

Though it's kinda weird how I never got a crash with my decals.
