From Steam I cannot get a new game to start I get the red scrolling message "nullReferenceException" I can join a game I have been playing with friends on a server but not a solo game. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and the same issue. I have the same issue if I start with Vortex (no mods)

Thread 'HOW TO REPORT AN ISSUE ~~ Please Read Before Creating New Threads! ~~'

NOTE: This thread is resurrected from a very old version. I need to update it and make some changes, but it should be mostly correct.

Howdy folks,
If you're reading this, you're probably thinking about starting a thread for help with an issue. This post is intended for you to understand what we need in order to assist you properly, and how you can give it to us.
Threads created without the information outlined in this post are not likely to get you a good resolution. (Most likely you will simply be re-directed to this thread to get instruction on posting the information...
 
I did verify files at Steam. I uninstalled, reinstalled, verified, started 7Days, and had the issue. The issue only happens when starting a new game, when I join a game on a server it works fine. I have joined the game, logged out and started a solo new game and I get the issue. I hope the new info helps

It is one (or more) of your mods. When you join a server you use the server's configuration. When you start your own game you use your configuration. Your log file is full of errors due to messed up (probably old) mods. For example:

One of you mods destroyed the trader configuration bad enough that the game can't understand it.
One of your mods blew away the game's primitive bow.

I did a uninstall of 7days, and vortex. I went and found any files not removed by the uninstall and deleted them (same location as the log files). reinstalled 7days and it works now. TY for your help

Witam. Mam podobnie. Konsola wyskakuje losowo . Ostatnio po wskoczeniu na samochód . Poprzednio lokacja z misją od tradera dała się przeszukać . Ale już po aktywacji zadania nie.

Masz ten sam problem, ale inne mody niż w oryginalnym zgłoszeniu. Twoje stare mody nie zmieniają skutecznie nowej wersji gry i niszczą konfigurację na tyle, że gra nie może nic zrobić. Zaktualizuj lub usuń te stare mody.

Błędy:

2025-07-14T23:08:34 98.180 ERR Could not load file '@:Entities/Zombies/Prefabs/ZCop.prefab' for entity_class 'zombieFatCop'

To jest ten błąd, który się powtarza. Nie można znaleźć zasobu potrzebnego do kucania lub czegoś podobnego. Prawdopodobnie z tego powodu: CopVomitRemoval-JT718 (0.0.1). Zombie mogą teraz kucać, żeby przechodzić przez mniejsze przestrzenie. Założę się, że stara wersja tego moda tego nie obsługuje.
