[SOLVED][0.16.16] Crash on startup, failed to load sprites ("File not found" error)

Posted: Sun Jan 21, 2018 7:16 pm

Hello,

After starting up today, I receive the following error:
0.981 Error AtlasSystem.cpp:1050: File not found: __base__/graphics/decorative/green-asterisk-mini/green-asterisk-mini-00.png
Multiple restarts do not matter. Disabling mods doesn't either. I tried to verify the game files via steam, which goes on in an endless loop. When I press play during this process, steam also gives an error for the same file.

Reproduction: I have no clue. Problem came out of nowhere, have played on this version before. Only thing that changed is my save games, as I played on an other computer too.

Any help appreciated...

-EDIT-
Tried reinstall. Same error, but now the game won't start. Steam just gives me that error now, and also tells me an update is required.

Did you try to validate the setup?

Right click on Factorio in the library -> properties -> local files -> check files for errors.

Yes I have.

-EDIT-

When finding that file in windows, it does not exist. I can't even access the folder, or even delete it.
Properties of the folder tells me it is 0 bytes.

-EDIT 2-

When deleting factorio. The green asterisk mini folder is not deleted. As are these two:
green-croton
green-desert-bush
Both folders have the same properties as the green asterisk one, so will probably give the same error.

Ah i see you tried to update which failed due the erronous picture file.

Probably you must deinstall and install from ground.

Also done, sadly...

What if you manually remove those files, and then reinstall?

After googling about, since this was clearly a windows problem, I ran a disk check. This has solved the problem.
How the problem started, still no clue...

if you are running a spinning hard drive these things sometime happen, because they get bad spots after some time of operating, if is still under warranty, suggest that you look into an RMA, after running the appropriate tests.

if you have had your drive for more than 3 years (even if it is an SSD), check if any spots on the drive have been marked as bad, if so highly recommend replacing it soon.

It's an ssd of about 1.5 months old. I don't think that would be the problem....
