I tried to open the manual to read about something, and as soon as I opened it, the game crashed. I restarted the game and tried to open it again and got a crash again.

I have included the crash reports.
crash-2017-08-01_16.43.25-client.txt
crash-2017-08-01_16.50.00-client.txt

That has something to do with it. I extracted the jar and duplicated manual.txt to manualUS.txt and everything looks like it's working.

Although I do get some text that looks like {ri:smartwrench} on some pages that I assume should be replaced with something.

Yaay, I'm glad I helped somehow hah.

I think this is called by using too old versions. There were some changes around manual.txt around that time and there may have been a mismatch between the version of McJtyLib used back then and rftools

just happened to me too

It is not useful to add 'me too' type comments to this issue. I know it happens. No idea why but I think it is solved in more recent versions. The pack needs an update

I will close this issue as this is all with very old versions of RFTools. The packs are simply outdated

Working on the manual issue still?

Just had it happen to me. Latest version of the pack.
Age of Engineering: 1.1.1c
Forge-12.18.3.2477
Minecraft 1.10.2
Java.. hmm have to look
Version 8 update 131 (build 1.8.0_131-b11)

Open the book, frozen screen, crash to launcher, happened twice.

Anything else I should include in any future reports?

Thanks

I need to know rftools version

He edited the RFT version into his comment, but I think is correct to close it if it's solved.

Well I have no idea if it is solved or not but this has only been ever reported for ancient versions of RFTools. As far as I know nobody ever got this bug on recent versions so until then I consider this bug squashed :-)

What version?

@McJty I believe it is version rftools-1.1x-5.92 of rftools. This happens to me as well. Same crash. Both on a server and in a single player instance. If you are curious about the version of Age of Engineering it happens in, it is 1.0.4

#1314 is a duplicate.

Very weird. I don't understand why this could happen. Does AoE do anything special with the manual or something?

It doesn't do anything special from what I can tell. Default crafting recipe.

The same thing happens to me. Age of engineering version is 1.0.5

Same here with Infinity Lite.
Minecraft: 1.10.2
RFtools: rftools-1.1x-5.91
McJity: mcjtylib-1.1x-2.4.3

Same here with Age of Engineering 1.1.0
Minecraft 1.10.2
RFtools: rftools-1.1x-5.92
mcjty: mcjtylib-1.1x-2.4.3

crashing when trying to open the manual

also crashing when trying to access the manual from a power cell for example

although the error seems to remain the same

Hi there, Using Age of Engineering 1.1.1c
Same issue as everyone, this case with the crafter (tier 3) on the ? click:
crash-2017-10-26_15.44.47-client.txt
crash-2017-10-26_15.49.44-client.txt

Also, here's the log:

fml-client-latest.log

The log has some interesting reports around MineTweaker, it may have something to do with the error.

If you need anything else feel free to ask.
I don't really know what mod could cause this interference.

Hey @McJty my log file says something like this:

[15:49:40] [Client thread/ERROR] [mcjty.lib.varia.Logging/]: Error reading manual text
java.io.FileNotFoundException: rftools:text/manualUS.txt

At line 23798
I think is the root of the issue. Hope that helps.
