  1. I don't know if the thread is still taking in suggestions but I've have one that I think alot of people enjoy if implimented into the game. An option to lock inventory boxes into place. Now I know this seems like a small thing to add, but the fact that whenever you're messing around with your inventory, there may be instances where you accidently move it. "Well all you have to do is move it back" I get that, but sometimes the inventory box will just completely disappear (literally just happened to me a few minutes ago) for no real reason, or (which I'm sure is pretty common) you accidently move the top of an inventory box past your computer screen boundary, leaving you unable to access it. I think putting a small feature like this into the game will make things a lot less frustrating. Either the suggestion above, or create a boundry so that things on the HUD cannot go past the edges of of your screen. Either one I'd be grateful for lol
  2. lol yeah if kind words worked that way it would sure save alot of money on food I'll tell you that right now. Really, without the help I would have wasted 10 dollars. It was my first online purchase ever since I started working, so I guess it's always good to start on a high note. You have a good night though man (or woman), couldn't have done this without you!
  3. @EnigmaGrey Yep, I was just about to say that I switched from low on the Video Memory, to INSANE, and was about to go see the results until I saw a reply. But I'm pretty hopeful it works. It should though, I assumed Video Memory meant the lower you go the better the performence ( I was wrong) so I'm pretty confident to say the least! I definetly don't run that much stuff on my computer anyways so If INSANE is to high I'll play around with it for a while. Also is there a way to rate a moderator, I definately want to show my appreciation!
  4. @Rathlord I definately will! I was looking through a "usermade" survival guide and saw alot of the cool features the game offers, but of course I want to make sure everything runs pretty smoothly. I just changed "Video Usage" I think its called, to low, and it was a little jagged. I set it for insane and was about to see what happens before I saw that there was a reply and didn't want to keep anyone waiting. I'll definately look through threads on how to speed things up a little If I'm still having issues!
  5. @EnigmaGrey I checked the options menu earlier but it doesn't go any lower than 1024x768 so it's a little jittery whenever I go to play it since my laptop is over 4 years old but I'll deal with it lol. Maybe running less applications will make the game run alot faster? and thanks for the extra information, If I ever want to use an earlier build for whatever reason that'll definetely come in handy!
  6. I just downloaded AMD Catalyst and instead of "generic driver" it now displays "Advanced Micro Devices" and without even restarting everything uploads perfectly! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for taking time out to help me with my issue. You don't know how frustrating it is to buy something, have something go wrong, and then no get any assistance with it. I almost said to myself "you know what? You're going to come out here and post a thread and no one's going to even respond to it so why bother?" I'm so glad I decided to go through with it, you've have been really helpful and patient with my issue! Heck I already paid 8 bucks for the, now all I wanna do is get each of your PayPal accounts so I can start start sending some joy your way! Know all I have to do is figure out the resolution, which should be in the options menu? Other then that one issue I'm good to go!
  7. While installing AMD Catalyst this message came up: "kdbsync.exe had stopped working" I'm not to sure what that means? Anyways I'm going to restart and see what happens!
  8. I'm going to begin following the procedures you've all stated. Hopefully something happens. I was able to get a picture. In the meanntime though I was able to get a picture of what I was talking about earlier ("black window") and I've added it as an attatchment! It's very white since I could only take a picture when the program stops responding. I couldn't get a FULL log but most of what I couldn't get in the picture seems like it loaded alright.
  9. Just walked through the door! and thanks for responding! I'm going to relax for a while and then follow what you said. Hopefully after following the directions the problem will go away lol. I'll post here the results after everything is done. Maybe around 8:00pm American Eastern time I'll post here so that you don't have to go back here and then to other threads back and forth to see if you got a response lol
  10. I tried using the WINDOW option and the FULL SCREEN option and every time it only gets half of the command screen and (I guess is what you call it) everything loads way to fast to be able to capture everything. my father does have a video camera so I can definately go with that option. and yeah it's unfortunate, I assumed Window users were in the majority, I guessed wrong lol But this website has treasure trove of Mac users. Which is good because you never know what problems may pop up for something that was originally made for one system and is now being put on another. But anyways I'll go and grab the camera and hopefully that will give you a better Idea. I just learned the camera my father had broke a few weeks ago so I won't be able to take that route. and the cell phone camera isnt advanced enough to capture images or video of a computer screen. I'll look around the forums a little more and wait on a solution for now! I appreciate all the help (to both of you) regardless if It didn't lead to fixing my problem lol
  11. @Rathlord For whatever reason I cannot get my print screen button to bring anything up, I'm holding shift also but still nothing. The command window I guess it's called is just so long that unless I can stretch out the entire window, the snipping tool wont be able to scan the entire window. @Robomat Hey, any assistance I can get, no matter how big or how small, I definately appreciate it! I'll try to look up a tutorial on how to acess the console and then hopefully I can get the information you need from there! To clarify, whenever running Project Zomboid from Desura, it'll give me 4 options to choose from (play 32, play 64, compatibale 32, compatible 64, something slong those lines) and whichever one I click a black window will come out and start loading something, then all of the sudden it says Pixel format not accelerated and alot of other things. There is no way to scroll up (since the program no longer responds) but I think once it gets to the bottom that's where the real problems are. I can definetly get that and post it on here, though I don't know how long it will take since I can't just copy and paste. Sorry the information was not brought up sooner!
  12. @Robomat The screen will turn slightly white and you can still see the bottom part of the "black window" screen, but since it's slighty white I can't scroll or do anything with it. Project Zomboid64.exe has stopped responding is what comes up. I don't know how to use console commands or anything like that. But if you told me how I can access my console and where I should look while in the console I can definately help! and sorry for not being able to come up with this information quickly! I'm not a tech specialist if you can tell lol
  13. @Rathlord Whenever I try to run the game It'll say: Loading etc etc etc Loading etc etc etc Loading etc etc etc and when the error (or what I suspect the error is) shows up the entire screen for the command window goes slightly white (Which I guess means somethings stopepd working) and there's no way to acess it, you can't right click it or do anything with the window once it turns slightly white. I'll try your other suggestion since the snipping tool isn't able to capture everything!
  14. Thank you so much to both of you for responding quickly, and also for the warm greeting! I don't know all the specifics of what would be needed but I'll definately try my best to put down all of the relavent information! OS - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) System Manufacturer - Hewlett-Packard System Model - Presario CQ61 Notebook PC Processor - AMD Athlon II Dual Core M300 (2 CPU's), ~2.0GHz Direct X Version: DirectX 11 Driver - AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Sorry for not having the information upfront! I will try to get a picture of the "log" after I post this!
  15. I've read through the forum and read many suggestions and none of them so far have worked. I've tried upgrading my driver, uninstalling ALL java programs on my computer and installing the latest one with no results. I've deleted Project Zomboid, used Desure to install it again and still no improvment. I even downloaded the Alpha file of PZ and tried running it from there (even as administrator), still the same result. I just bought the $8 version of the game yesterday, and messed around with it for over 2 hours before going to bed for work. There is something that pops up in the "black window" when trying to run the game (sorry for not mentioning this earlier) and it may explain what the problem is but I don't know how to go about fixing it. If someone could tell me how to upload an image of the "black window" I think it would make the process of fixing this MUCH easier. Thank you!
