Same as that by chance? would you mind running through the same steps suggested in that thread and see if that helps at all?

[bobbyjoejrfred]

there weren't really any steps in that thread could you tell me what you mean?

[Coenmcj]

By steps, I mean what they asked the OP to do, Providing the Output log and moving the install to D:/Games instead of the desktop and all that.

[bobbyjoejrfred]

ok how do I get the output log? sorry I'm not even sure what that is exactly

[Coenmcj]

It's fine, we were all new once.

You want to go to your rimworld folder then to Rimworld###Win_Data and it should be there.

[bobbyjoejrfred]

I found RimWorld671_Data is that it? cause there's more stuff inside that

[Coenmcj]

Should be a text file called Output_log inside of the rimworld###win_data folder.

[bobbyjoejrfred]

Is that it?

[Coenmcj]

Sorry for the late reply!
If you havn't found a fix for this yet, I'm afraid I'm not sure what's going on, hopefully someone more experience in reading the output log could provide some insight, but until then I think you're out of luck. :/

Sorry!

[bobbyjoejrfred]

It's alright, thank you anyway!

[Tynan]

The log looks clean. And you're running Windows on a mostly new PC.

This is incredibly unique and puzzling.

All I can suggest is following the reset and reinstall steps here: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=4805.0
