Windowing:Other

Fullscreen had an issue initially. I had to delete the Config.txt file allow clicking on any menu items. This is likely a bug with the game and ultrawidescreen rather than Proton.

Game crashes when starting a game

3 years ago

Installs:Yes

Opens:Yes

Starts Play:No

I can load to the menu, press "New Game", select an Avatar, name my zoo, but when I press 'Play' - it crashes.

The game also crashes when attempting to change the 'music volume' on start up.

This is the latest patch of the game and the in-game music is currently disabled.

Audio:Missing

A workaround from the dev to play via Proton, was to remove the musics. The sounds effects are still good, so it’s really a minor issue, IMO. No issue since this hotfix.

Audio:Missing

As a work-around to a crash on startup where the game was trying to load an mp3 during the splash screen and failing, the devs implemented a 'fix' that removes the music from the game, but makes the game otherwise fully playable.
