"Waiting for an uninitialized event."

Hello,

I am trying to update my Dutch localization mod, but run into an error message "Waiting for uninitialized event." when I select my mod. When clicking "Ok" the editor shuts down. What does this message mean, and is there a way I can troubleshoot this?

For completeness, I have recorded a small screen video what I am doing:

It seems like this is a problem with loading the jpg file for the thumbnail. We are looking into this.

The log file shows the editor is stuck loading the mod's preview jpg image. Can you put the jpg image somewhere for us to download it? The editor loads our jpg images fine, we need your jpg to test why it causes the problem.

My first reaction was "jpg? it's a png". Taking a closer look:

daniel@commandchair:/media/spel/steam_windows/steamapps/common/The Talos Principle/Temp/Workshop/257510/Published> ls -al totaal 344 drwxr-xr-x 2 daniel users 4096 13 jan 21:08 . drwxr-xr-x 3 daniel users 4096 9 dec 00:16 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 daniel users 336580 13 jan 21:08 zz058948d0de33c877.jpg -rwxr-xr-x 1 daniel users 197 9 dec 00:16 zz058948d0de33c877.txt daniel@commandchair:/media/spel/steam_windows/steamapps/common/The Talos Principle/Temp/Workshop/257510/Published> file zz058948d0de33c877.jpg zz058948d0de33c877.jpg: PNG image data, 1920 x 1080, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced

.png got renamed to .jpg! Let's convert:

daniel@commandchair:/media/spel/steam_windows/steamapps/common/The Talos Principle/Temp/Workshop/257510/Published> pngtopnm zz058948d0de33c877.jpg | cjpeg -quality 90 > tmp.jpg daniel@commandchair:/media/spel/steam_windows/steamapps/common/The Talos Principle/Temp/Workshop/257510/Published> file tmp.jpg tmp.jpg: JPEG image data, JFIF standard 1.01 daniel@commandchair:/media/spel/steam_windows/steamapps/common/The Talos Principle/Temp/Workshop/257510/Published> mv tmp.jpg zz058948d0de33c877.jpg

Problem solved!

What I think happened: During initial upload I selected the .png image (the file browse dialog has no problems with that). Could it be that because of the .png extenstion, the editor actually treats it like a .png file? At least during initial upload everything works fine.

However, after initial upload the file is renamed to .jpg, and when you try to update your mod, I suppose that the editor tries to handle it like a jpeg file, and because it is not, the jpeg loading routines crash.

So the error was on my side, sorry!
