Share Log File
Why we need the log file
The log file contains detailed information about any errors that have occurred, and that helps us determine where to look in the code as a starting point in our bug-fixing investigations.
Log file names
We always need the game log as it contains hardware details and detailed error reports:
output_log.txt
(Windows)Player.log
(Mac / Linux)
We also need:
TMPE.log
- usually in same folder as game log (see [[TMPE.log]] for details)
Log file locations
Location depends on operating system...
Windows:
The game log is called output_log.txt
. Location depends on the game portal you use to play the game (click portal name below to show paths):
Apple Mac:
The game log is called Player.log
and can be found at:
The <username>
folder is normally your login name.
Linux:
The game log is called Player.log
and can be found at:
Custom location
The location of the log file can be changed with the -LogFile
launch option (standard Unity feature). The TMPE.log
will be also placed in the same folder.
Obtaining list of mods
If using TM:PE v11-alpha3 or above, a list of mods can be found in your
TMPE.log
file. In the list, an asterisk (*
) denotes enabled mods and exclamation marks (!
) denote mods which are known to be incompatible with TM:PE.If using TM:PE v10.21.1 or earlier, subscribe and enable the Mods Listing mod; it will add the list of mods to the game log file.
If you want an HTML file that lists mods, subscribe the Stream It! mod (read workshop page for details of how to use it).
Sharing your log file
Where are you contacting us?
On Steam:
Log files are too big for Steam, so you'll have to upload the file somewhere. Here are some upload sites that people commonly use:
Drop file on to panel at Uploadfiles.io - free, no sign-up, can handle large files
Paste contents in to Paste.ee or, if file is too big, use ZeroBin instead
Do NOT use: Pastebin (too small size limit), Dochub (very slow to read files)
Make sure the file is publicly viewable, then share the URL in a comment.
In Discord chat:
Drag the file in to the #support
chat window to attach it. Also tell us why you're sharing the file, otherwise it's just a random file, and we have no idea what we're looking for.
On GitHub:
On your issue ticket, drag and drop your log file in to the large text box. Wait for it to upload (the text will change from [Uploading ...]()
to something else), then click the green button (Submit new issue, if you're creating a new issue, or Comment, if you're posting to existing issue).
