Have them delete the folder, then verify the game files. It would mean there is an update problem on their client side
Can also be a problem with the server update, in which case you need to wipe your server files and reinstall it, so you have all the latest files.
where do they have to delete the files? @humble kayak for me and others it seems to work so its client sided
In the game install folder, following the path in the error
Game is installed in steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid
So following the error, the full path is steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\scripts\xui\defaultskin
Delete that folder, or preferably the whole Scripts folder just in case
thank you very much
That does not work.
we've had to turn off the lua checksum as every single user had the issue
Alright, i´ma try that
that will fix it, but it's not a fix, it's a workaround that could cause more problems as the client could be up to no good
Okay, thank you, a workdaround is all we need for now 🙂
well, lets see
It would imply the server is the issue then
I suggest a full reinstall of it
it's happened to all 3 of my servers 🙃
I assume you have the same update process on all of them?
Since that would be what failed
yes, via steamcmd
Seems like it failed on all of them then, suggest reinstalling it
And reinstall SteamCMD itself as well, outdated SteamCMD can cause issues
As shown in one previous ticket
Does not work on/ with our server

We get the exact same error as before, but we tried getting the file from the server files and put it into our game files for testing and the server finds just other files that seem to be not there xDDDDD
i'd get a ticket open with your provider to ensure steamcmd is up to date, not sure why that wouldn't resolve it as it has for all 3 of the servers we have access too
We are hosting at indifferent broccoli.. Me and my friends will try a bit of stuff and when everything fails we will backup the save files to give the serverfiles a new go
same , the funny thing with this error is, most players can join, but some dont
Haha weird, on our server none of my friends can join
we deleted the server files now and turns out, the update forgot to delete files that are maybe no longer needed with the new update, now everything workds fine
you reinstalled the whole server?
Nom just the Server Files, the lets say save game saved somewhere else. You just have to delete the Serverfiles folder
In the file manager/ there are 2 folders. Server data and server files. dont delete the server data, just delete server files
and then?
And then you just restart the server. It should update the files on its own... Be sure all files are deleted from the server files folder
thank you, i try it
seems not to work, now people have problems with Steam authorization
Let them try to verify the game files maybe..
We did multiple times, we just wiped
We didn’t have to wipe
