matheuscoosta_ Posted June 9, 2024 Posted June 9, 2024 Hey guys, when i start the game with steam it says its running but doesnt open. i've tried everything and when i try to use the Alternate Launch (May work when default fails) can u guys help me?
Beard Posted June 10, 2024 Posted June 10, 2024 Can you share your console.txt file found in C:\\Zomboid? Since that should be the new location for the logs as set by the cachedir command.
matheuscoosta_ Posted June 10, 2024 Author Posted June 10, 2024 i found this console_log.txtconsole_log.txt is that it? i found zomboid folder only on steam/steamapps/common. couldnt find any Zomboid on mt C
Beard Posted June 11, 2024 Posted June 11, 2024 That is unusual, can you first try running the game again using the Standard launch? This is because the Alternate launch that shows the console as seen in your screenshot does not use the parameters you applied. After that, check the C drive again for the Zomboid folder, since it is possible you did not use the standard launch before applying the cachedir parameter.
matheuscoosta_ Posted June 14, 2024 Author Posted June 14, 2024 Sorry for the delay, I was very frustrated with not being able to play. I tried running it like this and there is no folder other than the one I created. Do you have any idea what it could be?
Beard Posted June 14, 2024 Posted June 14, 2024 Try changing the path from C:/Zomboid to the D: drive instead, then launch using the standard launch as you show in your screenshot, then check the D drive for the Zomboid folder.
matheuscoosta_ Posted June 15, 2024 Author Posted June 15, 2024 i dont have any D driver. i only have C
Guest Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 Try -cachedir="C:\Zomboid" From the first screenshots, you can see that the equals sign is missing and so the game is treating it as two separate options, so it never gets applied. I'm not sure if you made the change to start options after those screenshots or before, since the = is present. Otherwise everything should be in the following path, not Steam\Common C:Users\mathe\zonboid\
matheuscoosta_ Posted June 15, 2024 Author Posted June 15, 2024 I pasted what you sent here, but even so, the game didn't run. I did it like this, is that right? but the only path I found on my computer about Zomboid was C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid. Do you have any ideas?

Beard Posted June 16, 2024 Posted June 16, 2024 After writing that command, you have to run the game through your Steam Library > Play. Do not select Alternate launch there or use the .bat files, since the new cachedir will not apply. Your error basically shows that it cannot create the Zomboid folder in the User folder. The cachedir command changes it to the C drive instead.
Beard Posted June 17, 2024 Posted June 17, 2024 That is unusual, try going to your game install location and run the ProjectZomboid64.exe file as an administrator in that case.
matheuscoosta_ Posted June 18, 2024 Author Posted June 18, 2024 It worked!!!!!!! On the weekend I'm going to test it to see if I can play, but if everything is correct, is it just starting the game through the exe?
Beard Posted June 18, 2024 Posted June 18, 2024 Yes it should be. You can also test if you can run the game normally through the Play button now, so you do not need to keep launching it as an admin.
