Hey devs, I like inzoi, really cool game. But a lot things (it’s ok cuz it early access) need to be improved.
First of all I’ll list the problems (bug) I have.
the game freezes (only zoi and anything except escape button) when I try to run movie on the Movie Sceen.
(I use .mp4 format, short english names and such directory… C:\Users\****\Documents\inZOI\CustomMedia)
Rice cookers are not active for direct use.
When using vacuum cleaners and hair dryers, they are not treated as objects. Their mere presence in the house gives zoi the right to use them as if by magic.
Zois from other families don’t attend festive city events (except private parties).
The game does not allow you to place walls of different sizes, and even half-walls are installed oversized (2+ meters higher than what was selected).
I can’t place a foundation like I did in Sims 3 to build a house or a terrace on it.
The safes are unusable.
When the police arrive and arrest the thief, the game, on behalf of the police, writes that he has escaped.
Hovercraft do not travel over land. Boat rentals are charged based on the fact of using the vehicle, rather than by the duration of time.
The sports interest group at meetings includes only the coach and an invited zoi from an active family.
There is no possibility to interact with the CCTV monitor.
When loading artwork from Canvas, such as clothing, and attempting to access a custom texture, it resets to the default. This prevents correcting the texture’s positioning if it’s somehow misaligned. The same applies to custom furniture (from Canvas).
Devices with retractable screens like Flex (Samsung) cannot be used except in promo mode (only turning on and sliding the screen).
The home phone, fax machine, iron and shredder cannot be used for their intended purpose. There is no way to contact emergency services except in person or at the game’s suggestion.
Nyx’s totem can’t be picked up or otherwise moved to the crate. This makes it impossible to protect zoi from accidental use without creating a special room.
When traveling, the travel voucher is not clickable. At the moment, the only thing you can do to get to any city is move. The game does not automatically move the family into the hotel, but rather requires the player to categorically purchase a plot of land or a vacant house. The current house cannot be sold if the player is in another region. In order for a player to move, he will have to sell his house and belongings in his home region, buy an empty plot of land in the same region, and travel to another city by purchasing a plot of land there through the travel option. There is no adequate move/travel.
There are smoke detectors, but the fire extinguishing system itself, as well as the fire brigade, are absent.
There’s one lamp in the Russian version where the part names are mixed up with a similar one. I don’t remember which one. The only problem is not the names, but the triggers—in the painting menu, the part that’s painted isn’t the one that’s selected and matches the name.
When using a festive table setting, zois does not use the forks and knives from the set (they are not clickable).
If you really want to — replace any of the existing videos in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\inZOI\BlueClient\Content\Movies\ by giving it the name of one of the built-in ones, for example “Movie_Comedy_001.mp4”. Format H264 and audio in AAC LC, FullHD, 29.97 fps. Duration doesn’t matter — the standard ones are about 2 minutes, but mine plays perfectly fine at 4+ — zoi will sit for exactly as long as the clip lasts.
And of course, then select exactly these videos. Attempting to play a “custom” one will still result in a blank screen and no actions except exiting.
Unfortunately, yes, I ran into this recently myself. Moreover, calling the police by phone doesn’t happen — the action looped. And I lost 300 meow on top of it all
My collected list of bug (as of may, not updated if any fixed in the last 2 months)
Celebrating a birthday will age a zoi when blowing the candles, but the same zoi will age again at midnight, costing them an extra day of their lives. (was this fixed or is this still a thing, I still think this is a thing)
Cannot put objects on walls any higher than one or 2 square off the ground. Personally noticed for large paintings and some wall hanging plants.
Children and Adolescents no longer get their homework when finishing school. Sometimes they will appear at 5pm.
Forever thin bug. Any played zoi family will melt and all zois will become super skinny.
In Build mode, Items will disappear if you redraw walls after placing them.
Music no longer plays when the “Miracle of Life” screen appears.
No Music when setting the mood or making a baby.
No lights (and sometimes no sounds) when using the “Store in Fridge” option.
Scheduled wedding will disappear from the schedule if a “severe weather” event occurs.
Zois marrying on their own after you get to the “You are engaged” stage.
The “Clean here” action can no longer be queued. The new one will erase the older one.
Unable to cancel the “Vent Anger” on a vending machine, and if cancelled via an “emergency rescue” cops still chase you and apply cuff animation.
When creating a baby with medical procedure, the last name will show in the first name slot.
When adopting, the first and last name are inverted.
When reaping harvest of Banana/Mango trees, their water level will reset to 100%.
Eating and Drinking take too long on anything but the 48min time per day.
Needs depletion still feel off, and has been feeling that way since 48min became the default. The over-time needs depletion needs to be adjusted per time/day setting instead of scaling off the 48min.
Sleep gauge fills from 20-25% to 100% in 3½ hours (Tested in 96min time per day). Should take 8 hours to fill it from 0 to 100%, so ~6hours from 25%
Impossible to move a family to a new house/lot if you have Newborns or Toddlers, also being unable to move these two kids in other families if you wanted to for mechanical or RP reasons.
Zois no longer play piano/synthesizer when you have that preference AND one of the 2 instruments at home, always defaulting on the Guitar instead if you have one anywhere in the house.
Zois know instantly if their partner is cheating, even when not near them or in places where friends of both would not see them.
Cleaning does not increase Housework skill anymore.
Zois getting their action cancelled to go take care of a newborn/toddler, forgetting what they where doing and not resuming previous action.
Zois cleaning table and surrounding served meals when cleaning their own plate after eating.
