Stellaris Dev Tracker

I'm not sure if it's the same for Mac as on a Windows machine, but even though I'm the admin/only user on my machine, I still need to do the "run as admin" thing for certain actions (some unrelated to gaming). Can you try it and let me know?

This is normal. We keep only one rollback branch in the 3.9.X series.

Originally posted by whereisscott: It was running fine for me until the hotfix that just was issued. Now it's saying the DLC is missing and I can't open my savegame file. I've verified the game, but the issue is persisting.

After verifying the files, can you please right-click Steam and run as administrator, and let me know if that resolves your issue?

We just deployed a fix for the ownership verification for Astral Planes. If you had those issues, we ask you to verify Stellaris Game files.

In order to do so, right click on Stellaris on your library, then Properties, Local Files and Verify Game Files.

Additionally, there are another couple of steps you can take:

-- Right click Steam, click "Run as Administrator", check the DLC ownership through the game.
-- (In Windows) Go to Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall Paradox Launcher V2, then relaunch the game through Steam.

We want to thank all the affected players for their reports, in particular those who helped us troubleshooting the issue on Discord. If you continue having issues, please let us know!

Are you able to start a new game, and if so, is the Riftworld origin available to select?

Thanks for the assistance.

Edit: Looks like everything's working now, so, uh, never mind! Have fun!

Our team says that the launcher may be taking some time to update -- as long as your "additional content" page has updated and shows ownership of Astral Planes, you will have access to the new DLC.

Originally posted by Lucullo: I too have this problem. I verified the files and restarted Steam a couple of times but it is still there.
However, the "unable to verify ownership" flag appears only in the launcher (DLC tab) while the "addtional content" page says "owned".
I've not yet tried playing.

Our team says that the launcher may be a little wonky, but as long as the "additional content" page has updated, you will have access to the new DLC.

@avilob and @Xentor, can you confirm that you have updated to 3.10.0, and are not using an older branch of the game?

Hi everyone -- the fix for this seems to be to verify your installation, and then to restart Steam (in that order). Please let me know if that doesn't resolve your issues!

Originally posted by avilob: yup did everything, redownloaded the game, restarted steam, verified files

Are you still experiencing issues after verifying the files, and then restarting Steam (in that order)?

Please restart Steam after verifying your files! Let us know if that doesn't resolve your issue.
