I have a problem where I launch tapi (the latest version) and it makes the sound as if it started but does not appear on my screen and then exits soon after. If anyone knows how to fix this please tell me.

Please go to "My Documents -> My Games -> Terraria -> tAPI -> Logs"
Usually the most recent log is the one on the bottom :) .
Just copy the text from the most bottom log in the folder and paste it here.

It's pretty simple, the file 'Craft button. Png' is not found, these are usually caused by tAPI looking into the wrong Content directory. (For example, let's say that the Content folder that tAPI needs to look into is called Contentbad, tAPI is only programmed to look into a folder named 'Content'. So when it starts, it sees 'Contentbad' and it won't recognize it. But then it finds ANOTHER folder called 'Content', that is not the right one, so it caused an error.)
This bug is simple to fix, rename the folder that tAPI needs to look into to 'Content'.)
If this doesn't work please don't hesitate to ask for more help. :)

thanks, I did not see that.
I guess that means we will probably get official mod support in a future update ;) Until then we have tMod.

maybe.
no actual indication of that though. don't read too much into it. all it means is that tapi is dead now. but theres tmodloader and prisim coming eventually at least

The texture Is redirected to "Item/"Your item here" "
It must be "Items/SyvariLongBow"

It is looking into the wrong directory, Make sure tAPI is able to access the 'Content' folder.

If it's not, tAPI will fail to load, which causes the error you have.
It's not 'drag & drop', You will need to reinstall tAPI in the right folder that has 'Content'.

So I select in the installer the content folder? If I do in the installer it shows an error and cant install
[DOUBLEPOST=1439397369,1439397273][/DOUBLEPOST]It only says "The selected directory is not the right terraria directory". Do I edit it in the game launcher?
