StarterScript doesn't load

Bug Reports Studio Bugs
#1

I’m getting this in the output right when I open up a place in edit

External Media

I press “Play Solo” and the screen turns gray. Started happening after I logged into my friends account then back to mine but I’m not sure if that’s linked to the problem. I have un-installed and re-installed studios and its still happening.

EDIT: Better title

#2

Check if the ‘OverrideCoreScripts’ setting is enabled.

#3

If “OverrideCoreScripts” is disabled can you try reinstalling studio to see if that helps?

#4

I can’t seem to repro this, could you give more detail if possible?

#5

It’s disabled.

I don’t think I can. If you need any files or anything I can send that.

#6

Would it be possible for you to:

  1. Remove the C:\Users\Snyder\AppData\Local\Roblox folder entirely
  2. Reinstall studio (by playing a game from the web site and then running Studio)
  3. If the issue persists, creating a zip file out of the said folder and uploading it somewhere? (Google Drive maybe)

If you can’t upload the entire folder, can you upload just the folder with RobloxStudio.exe (version-71b69…)?

1 & 2 seemed to fix it, thanks! I will keeps my eyes open if this happens again.

#8

I’m getting the same issue:



To reinstall Studio would mean resetting all my settings (script editor, layout, etc.) and having to reinstall my plugins…

Is there another way to resolve this? Perhaps manually downloading and placing the correct assets in the version folder?

That actually appears to be a plugin error - it’s trying to load ‘RbxUtility’ which (apprently) doesn’t exist.

#10

This may be a timing issue… do you know which plugin is spitting these errors out?

#11

Plugins do run (for me they did some time, not keeping track) before the libraries get loaded.

Also, line 5 of the script in the plugin that TraeMan7 is using that causes the error:

 local library = assert(LoadLibrary("RbxUtility"))

In my plugins where I use libraries, I just do: local NAME,e = LoadLibrary(“NAME”)
Then if NAME is nil, I print the error.
(or “Unable to load the library NAME”, if it doesn’t return an error, I forgot if it acts like pcall or not)

LoadLibrary() can return two things - the library, or nil plus an error message

Yeah, wasn’t sure if it did that or not, then I probably do something like printing the error and terminating the script.

#14

Oh, I was getting this same thing yesterday. I had been messing around with CoreGuis at the time so I thought it was just me. Reinstalled; works fine now.

#15

It’s not just those error messages in the output that’s the issue:



This happens whenever I click run or run plus (haven’t tried play solo).

You don’t have to remove the entire Roblox\ folder - it’s enough to remove C:\Users\You\AppData\Local\Roblox\Versions. Settings and plugins are in other folders so they should not be affected.

I removed the Versions folder and ran Studio. It updated, but the same problems still persist.

Since the settings and whatnot are in the other folders, do I copy the entire ROBLOX\ folder (Versions excluded), reinstall, then replace the new ROBLOX\ folder with my copy?

#18

I renamed my Versions folder and re-downloaded studio and the problem was resolved.

#19

I was having this issue earlier today. In addition, the terrain tools were not functioning. Completely uninstalling ROBLOX, player & studio, fixed both issues.

#20

Created a 1-week pinned thread in the Technical Issues forum to tell people how to fix this. Let me know if the steps are unclear or need more information.
