  • RAM,

  • storage…

  • Issue Date: 12/24/25

  • Error Message: none given

  • Details: Every time I load into Caz to start a new save (i deleted all my previous saves so I can play) It crashes. Especially if I attempt to change the age of the character, or even save the zoi. It continues to crash and crash I can’t even finish the character. I have no mods, Drivers are already at the latest, I validated and when that failed I completely reinstalled the game. Tried fixes like deleted webcache (there is no folder anywhere of that name in my files so please don’t say that) . I desperately want to play the game i spent 40 dollars on so i appreciate any help!

game now loads a black screen and then crashes…so no longer does it even load to game menu or let me in caz

That’s amazing! Maybe it was some kind of bugfix in the latest patch that fixed your issue. Glad you can enjoy the game now :grinning_face:

I removed the mods in game but realized there were still old files of deleted mods in the file explorer located here:

C:\Users\rache\OneDrive\Documents\inZOI\Mods\88849

&

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\inZOI\BlueClient\Content\Paks~mods

I deleted the mods files in these folders, and it seems to have significantly fixed the issue regarding crashing in CAZ because of insufficient memory.
