Hi,
I just downloaded PZ and when i try to host a server via the host button it keeps getting stuck on the initializing part after making backups. I checked the coop-console.txt and first it said to disable the unpn setting if it got stuck there.
So i disabled it and manually port forwarded both 16261 and 16262. but it still gets stuck, I dont know where to go from here.
#Coop server hosting stuck on initializing (linux) (unmodded)

Is Zomboid given full read/write permissions for the $HOME/Zomboid folder?
The third permission did not have create and delete files, i changed it now gonna attempt to host again
it is this folder right?
i have given the one in common full permission as well but it doesnt seem to have changed anything
wait it might have, the .txt is showing a lot more this time around
nvm i was looking at the console.txt instead of coop
Can you try doing a steam file verification?
yep
it said 1 file failed to verify and it refreshed, tried again and still stuck in the same spot
i dont know if its relevant context but some things:
tried to run a coop server on my windows 10 laptop, instantly worked (so not sure if its really my port settings)
im running proton experimental
Can you run it on native rather than proton?
That did it! thank you very much
didnt know that i shouldnt auto proton games
appreciate your time and help❤️
