Can't see any of my saved server settings

[patent forum]

After the new update I can no longer see the self hosted server settings under the host menu. The files are in the folder and I have backups of them but they don't appear in game. When creating new settings they also don't appear on the list. I've tried validating my files which didn't work. I've attached the log.zip file to my post as well. PLS HELP

The logs show they are corrupted, likely caused by switching between B41 and B42

In which case, can you try doing a full reinstall?
First, uninstall the game, then go to "Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid" and make sure there are no leftover files or folders there.
After that, go to “%UserProfile%\Zomboid” and delete everything there except the “Saves” and "Server" folders.
Then just install the game again and see if that helps.

I just tried that and am running into the same issue... ill attach the log

You seem to have a lot of servers with unsupported names, such as spaces, special characters, dashes and so on

Do you see the "servertest" servers listed?

[patent forum]

oh..... really?

[patent forum]

no the only one i can see is the one in the screenshot i posted

[arctic nacelle]

It's possible the others might prevent loading the rest of it, try deleting / moving the settings files and make new ones

Make a new one just named servertest and see if it shows up

[patent forum]

so i made a new one named servertest as you said and it worked fine... do you want the log file?

and would there be any way to fix some of them? theres really only two that i care about

[arctic nacelle]

What are their names? Did you try just creating them again?

[patent forum]

one of them is "simi and aiden server 3-10-26" i think and the other is "simi server 3-4-26"

[patent forum]

by creating them again do you mean creating new server settings under the same name?

[arctic nacelle]

Yes, since your saves still exist, its just the server settings that fail to show

So if you rename the settings to the same name as the save, the server will load that save

I may be going through the same issue myself

I also tried to create new server saves titled 'servertest1' and they are not appearing in the manage server settings list.

[arctic nacelle]

Delete any of the extra servers in the Zomboid/Server folder

Is it okay if I ping you to my thread? It's where I logged most of the problems I've been going through as of now

hi sorry for the late response ive been quite busy and havent had time to mess with zomboid. I followed your instuctions and was able to get the server settings to show up but when i try to start the server it doesnt get past the initialization phase.
