Stuck on 'Starting Game' screen

[CubanCaffery]

I did the 6.3gb update on steam on the 28th-06-23, since then i cant log into a dedicated server, on the off chance it does log in, it says ive left the game on others screen but it desyncs me and i fall through the floor or cant open boxes etc, ive done the port forwarding and it still didnt help. im lost on what to do.

ive also done this too

Server probably hasn't updated yet.

hello,

its been updated, other friends have been on at the same time i couldnt log in

Give the server a rest, good minute or two shutdown and reverify the files on the server, may have gotten some things mixed up

hello

yeah weve also done this earlier, still the same unfortunately

Next step would be to take a look at the log then, one from a client affected by it and the server

I mean a log file from you and the server, this is a server you are running right? Or did I misread that (quite possible lol)? Your log files are in %appdata%/7daystodie/logs and the server log should be in the main directory. Upload those to pastebin or something similar

Without seeing what's going on in the server log, it appears that the server is busted, you're losing connection in the middle of connecting (I suspect this as a conjecture from seeing your client attempting to keep sending messages to the server, so the server looks to be dropping the connection first). You may want to poke customer support and ask them to take a look at the box

ok thank you, would it be easier to just delete my character and start again?

You should be wiping the entire save between experimental updates. 

Without details and logs from the server, it's hard to tell you more.

 

[Jugginator]

Well there aren't any errors related to bad save files, you never actually made a connection in that log file so not sure.
