SMM Won't Launch Game
When I click "Launch Satisfactory" in the SMM, nothing happens, and about 10 seconds later that button turns green again, like it does when you close the game. Epic, Early Access branch.
I've restarted my PC, restarted SMM, verified my game files in epic, cleared the cache in SMM, and now generated the debug mode. I'm not seeing any crash/error text.
I have the experimental branch installed and the early access version via steam as well, if it helps to troubleshoot.

try launching via steam. SMM just calls that anyway. it won't be that that's the root issue here
(the log you sent is from the steam copy)
oh yeah, I see that now
The SMM is still pointing at epic though, that's just what generated. Can I make it generate epic instead?
it always grabs the most recent log, so try to launch epic again then make another one
Try to launch via epic launcher or SMM?
either, because in theory they both do the same thing
I've never used SMM to launch through Steam, I don't think. Gotcha, ok
Sorry, I'm a dunce about this stuff.
I tried launching via steam per Borketh's comment, it's taking forever to download the files.
all good, the point of SMM is to not have to worry about that kind of stuff
I misread, so steam isn't relevant here if you're trying to launch epic
gotcha, no worries

hmm, still says steam. But I'm launching epic
Solution
seems like it isn't even making it to the game launching?
