Did you attach your log file?

• Yes, I attached my log file to the text box above.
• No, I could not find a log file at {Game_Directory}\MelonLoader\Latest.log

The latest release of MelonLoader has been recently removed from GitHub for an unknown reason and you're running an older version of MelonLoader. Please install MelonLoader manually from https://github.com/LavaGang/MelonLoader/releases/tag/v0.5.4

If you don't know how to manually install MelonLoader, refer to https://github.com/LavaGang/MelonLoader.Installer/blob/master/README.md#manual-zip

Update: The latest release is back. You can simply reinstall MelonLoader using the official installer to fix your issue

now i got it to work. but i had to do it manually by downloading all the github files manually by getting the urls and the locations from the logs. it seems like all my webclient requests are all aborted(?) for some reason
