Reinstalling, verify integ, tried looking for an options.ini file in the game directory i find nothing. ive tried looking for a console text file nothing shows up either. ive unisntall gpu drivers for my nvidia gpu 3050 nothing works. ive tried deleting parts of the game and seeing if steam can redownload it and fix it that still doesnt work. i get only a black screen. i just got the game about 4 days ago and i really would love to enjoy this game but i cant get it to work at all. i have NO MODS. im not sure waht to do at this point realkly. NOTHING ive seen on reddit or opn fourms seems to work. please help

go into your "C:\Users\Namara\Zomboid" folder and upload to here the logs.zip file that is in there

fervent flint
modern idol

#

i assume you already verified files in steam? @fervent flint

fervent flint
#

yu;

#

yup

modern idol
#

remove your options changes

#

or, did you already try with defaults?

fervent flint
#

Let me restart pc first. I'll verify integ again. See maybe if a restart does anything new

#

removed launch options for nostaeam still nothign does the nvdia overlay for screen recording screw with it>

#

thryign this again

#

#

thought this was a problem just incase and this is still disabled aalso disabled the overlay for nvida for screen recording

The issue seems to be texture related, do you perhaps have any applications running in the background? I would recommend turning them off

#

Anything Razer related and so on, as those can cause issues with the game display

#

I recommend checking your Taskbar icon tray and just shutting down any apps there

fervent flint
#

ok let me disablke razor stuff i have arazor keybolard and also mouse but im pretty sure they donmt have overlay or anythning. ill also disable wallpaper engine too see if it goes

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LZ00T9aN9hGdXycJW1Udh2sgt3OaH82m/view?usp=sharing so ive seen a lot of issues for black screen. ive tried Reinstalling, verify integ, tried looking for an options.ini file in the game directory i find nothing. ive tried looking for a console text file nothing shows up either. ive uninstall GPU drivers for my NVID...

#

I assume this is yours?

fervent flint
#

yup

barren fable
#

I will delete it in that case since I am helping you here, if that is fine

fervent flint
#

yea no worries thanks

#

you can

#

so samer isssue ive exit all razor apps. also disblae nvdia overlay

#

black screen with music intro and has the cusor showing movment

#

is gpu tweak somethign i should close out too ?

barren fable
#

Oh definitely

#

This specific error is fairly vague as it just shows that the GPU failed to render the textures, I have only come across some applications causing the issues, such as some Razer apps, Asus Tweak apps and similar

#

So any GPU Tweak apps would definitely be able to cause it

fervent flint
#

bet let me force colose it on task man

barren fable
#

With a 3050 I would recommend using the Nvidia built in overclock if you want to tweak your GPU, 3000+ cards have that

fervent flint
#

bet welp

#

unsitallign this shity apop

#

thanks for that

#

holy freaking crap welp gpu tweaks is on my black lsxist now

#

thank you SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH

#

ur a god
