Hello guys!

After updating to 42.16 I can't start a new game, neither in SP nor in MP. The message says “unexpected error”, I found these records in my console.txt:

I’ve already completely reinstalled the game, deleted all mods, and old server/save files.

On my Windows PC the game is working fine.

Did you manually wipe the game files during the reinstall? Can you screenshot which folders you deleted so I can confirm that?

Well, I completely deleted my ~/Zomboid folder, unsubscribed from all mods (and deleted them from steamapps).
I’m not sure what screenshot I need to do for you

If that is the only thing you did, then you forgot to delete the ProjectZomboid folder in your Steam folder

#

Steam does not delete leftover files, if there is a game corruption, it will stay there until you manually delete the files

Hmm, I used the steam verify installed files function to make sure that everything is correct.. Let me try to delete the game again, but double check if there is ProjectZomboid folder exists
