  1. What the issue is: I've been playing with sprinters enabled. Occasionally, I'll load a game up, and the zombies will be automatically reset to shamblers. This happens more often if I've died and created a new character in that game world, but it isn't exclusive to it.

     

    How to recreate the problem: Start a game with sprinters, die, and create a new character. The zombies should be shamblers now.

     

    Am I playing with any mods? Some map extension mods, and some mods that add objects to the game (i.e. a silencer mod). I'm also playing with superb survivors, but I don't see why those mods would impact the zombie spawn type.

    Well, it looks like the driver number changed. Did the installation complete successfully? Did you restart your computer once it was done?

     

    If so, what's your computer's specs? I'd like to see if I have something that comes close to matching it. 

     

    How's it crashing? Do you get a white screen or "not responding" message? If so, try waiting it out for a few minutes, as it finishes loading. For example, in the log from 25-11-19 14:55, it looks like the game  almost loaded successfully then was closed normally by pressing the X button. 

    Hate to bug you guys, but could somebody get back to me?

    The game kind of sort of loads (if that makes sense). The black screen stays for like, 15 minutes, but the theme music plays in the background.

     

    I'll upload my specs when I get home from campus.

     

    I have not updated my drivers in the time period between postings.

     

    It is not crashing at all. It is "kind of" loading. The black loading screen just never turns into the main menu anymore.

    It would be good to again send the game logs after that happens. Though I dont have many ideas as it could just be a graphics card issue, maybe future optimizations will prevent it from crashing so much.

    I recommend starting the game with the "ProjectZomboid32.bat" file found in your game folder "Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid"

    I also recommend disabling the Steam overlay (rarely causes black screens)

    Open the Steam client and navigate to the Steam > Settings/Preferences > In-game tab. Uncheck the box next to Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game.

    Okay, did that. Same problem. I've attached the logs. Any feedback at all would be helpful. I don't see how it could be my graphics card. This doesn't seem like a really "high-graphics" game, even with the anims but I guess I could be wrong.

    Hmm some textures seem to fail to load, which usually indicates low vram or other graphical issues. Since it ran before just fine, maybe you changed some settings that would cause the crashing?
    Replace the options.ini file in the Zomboid folder with the attached one, it should lower a bunch of your settings and then maybe you can get your game to start at least, then you can switch the settings back how it was before the crashes.
    options.ini

    Thanks. I downloaded the file and the game boots up and stays running (so no crash). However, the screen stays black (left it running for like 5 minutes to see if it was just loading, and nothing). I can hear the music running in the background, however, so progress. Any ideas?

    Try going to "C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid" and delete all the files there except the "Saves" folder, as we dont want to lose the saves. Or you can just move them out as a backup, since it stores your configuration / favourite servers and such.
    This should stop any mods from loading (it is better to provide logs without any mods), and clean out potential files that could cause these issues, since it these crashes didn't happen before.

     

    Done. Here are the log files (I included the entire C:\Users\djack\Zomboid folder minus the "mods" folder, for reference).

    I'll try this and get back do you. Do you want me to re-upload the logs?

     

    Also, the 11/12/19 or 11/11/19 log files SHOULD be without any mods enabled (I'm not sure which date, but it's one of those two).

  9. Basically, the title. Every time I start Project Zomboid, the screen goes black like the game is starting up.

     

    Then, after about 10 or so seconds, the game crashes to desktop with no clear reason.

     

    This happens even after I disable and delete all workshop mods.

     

    It started about 2 or so weeks ago.

     

    My hardware had absolutely no problems running PZ IWBUMS Build 41 before that, so unless you MASSIVELY upped the hardware requirements, that should not be the issue.


    My driver software is completely up to date (as up to date as possible, anyway; the hardware manufacturer doesn't release new driver updates anymore as I'm using a 2014 desktop with an integrated graphics card).
