im getting a black screen everytime i open my colony, ive tried restarting PC and all that stuff and i still keep getting a black screen, ill put my log file as an attachment and plz tell me how to fix it?

all i have running is my standard programs (task manager, audio mixer, skype, windows media player) and am not using a modded version, if im correct im either using version 9.0 C or 10 F

it may have been the case where i did locate my rim world files and place them into a zip folder so i could take them away on my pendrive( i still have the folders on my computer cuz i havn't found my pendrive yet) could this be the problem maybe? im not too sure

Looks like the file you're opening is corrupt or empty. Perhaps it corrupted on save? This is possible if you terminate RimWorld during save or your power cuts out during that <1s period. I've got a note to implement saving in a safer fashion.

Thanks for reporting.
