    Simply just updated to the new engine and it goes through the loading and right before the cat gets to the desk just freezes and then this screen pops up. I talked to some discord users and they said to clear cache which I did and still no fix.

Hey there, welcome to the inZOI forum!

Did you use any mods before upgrading to the 5.6 beta? If so, please remove any possible remains of these mods from the game’s folders.

Yeah ive removed all local mods from my mods folder should I just delete all mods to try it? I disable mods manually and through the settings. I just didnt fully remove every curseforge mod.

It might help, so feel free to try that. Have you downloaded the latest NVIDIA GPU drivers yet? I know they released a new one a few days ago.

Yeah I’m super on top of driver updates download them soon as the drop. Ive also just removed all my mods from my folder and still having the issue.

OK so some reason my setting was the issue? i brought my setting that i run normally and perfectly fine down and tweaked the setting and guess I have to have fallback mesh instead of actual mesh (strange)

I was using mods before upgrading to beta but I am not facing this issue, my beta works just fine and I can enter the game, so I do not think it is related to mods. Your specs are generally better than mine so I don’t see how that could be a problem.

Somebody said this in discord:

so for people having issue with the new update not running and crashing before main screen I have a fix that worked for me. In the NVidia drivers ( or what ever driver app you use) turn your settings down the game will work then but your game will look like hot garbage so open your game and go put all your original setting but leaving “ray tracing mesh” as fallback mesh clicked. I don’t know why this worked but was a fix for me now my game runs the update.

Do you think it could work for you?
