After updating my game to v 1.0. every time i try to start it the game crashes immediately, i have deleted all game settings and pre 1.0 maps and data and redownloaded my game completely. the game files according to steam when I verify after the game crashes. one file needs to be redownloaded. I needed to mention this in case it is relevant. if you need pc specs aswell I will provide them if needed.

This is due to having spaces in your filepath and using a custom userdatafolder in the command line arguements

2024-07-25T20:07:39 0.093 INF Command line arguments: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\7DaysToDie.exe -force-d3d11 -disablenativeinput -nogs -noeac -UserDataFolder=C:\Users\Game Pc\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie -logfile C:\Users\Game


to fix this, put the entire userdatafolder argument in quotes

so instead of

-UserDataFolder=C:\Users\Game Pc\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie


use

"-UserDataFolder=C:\Users\Game Pc\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie"


or just remove the userdatafolder parameter if you just want default location

Are you launching the game from Steam? If so there's two places I'm aware of you could try checking

In Steam Library, right click the game and select Properties

Under General tab, do you have anything filled out in the Launch Options?

If the text field is empty, try setting the dropdown to "Show game launcher" and then start the game to bring up the below popup and see if you have anything in "additional parameters" field

If you are starting the game via a desktop shortcut, check the properties of the shortcut and see if you have some extra parameters in the "Target". For example I had a custom shortcut that called a separate serverconfig.xml in here
