Details:
I’ve never encountered this until the Dec update. But whenever my Zoi who owns a business gets married, the other male zoi does not get the wedding invite. If I go to the wedding or click “Get married” one of the Zoi’s will end up married to themselves on the family tree and he can’t be romantic with his partner anymore even though their relationship status changes to “family” …. Unsure if this is just for gay Zoi’s, Zoi’s who own business’s or the family tree is messing it up…
I’ve tried this one two new saves with the same issue.
I never saw this post before and am sorry to hear it’s impacting other players. I haven’t tried getting my business owner married, but now I will so I can check if it happens in my game too.
It is really mind blowing which ‘creative’ connections this game finds between clothes and marriage - or once in my game between a cushion and the hair color o.o
Mods: (Choose one: never used) If you have used mods before, please list them:
Hardware Specifications & Operating System (OS version, CPU, GPU, RAM, storage…): I know my PC is too old, but usually it worked, but with bad graphics. The issues aren’t about graphics.
After planning a wedding, my save file became completely desynchronized.
Relationship states, calendars, events, interactions, and even ambient behavior broke simultaneously.
Additionally, all saves prior to the engagement and wedding were automatically deleted, making recovery impossible.
This resulted in total loss of my game progress.
Steps to Reproduce (as accurately as possible)
Two Zois were in a romantic relationship.
Female Zoi initiated the marriage proposal
(Question: Can proposals also be initiated by the NPC partner?)
Female Zoi used the interaction “Plan Wedding Together”.
Wedding was scheduled.
What went wrong (chronological):
Calendar & Event Issues
The wedding only appeared in the male Zoi’s calendar, not in the female Zoi’s calendar, even though she initiated the planning.
This pattern already existed before:
all dates and events appeared only in his calendar, never in hers.
On the wedding day:
The bride did not appear at the wedding
The groom appeared alone
The wedding still resolved automatically
The groom was already marked as “married” BEFORE the wedding took place
(visible in his profile/emotion panel).
Outfits & Immersion
Wedding outfits were planned.
Groom appeared in everyday clothes (jeans, sweater, sneakers).
No ceremony, no proper event flow.
Housing & Location Bugs
Before moving in together, the groom frequently showed: “Currently not in the city”, despite being active in the world.
He clearly had independent city routines, not tied to the household.
After moving in:
Groom still had the interaction “Go to new home”, even though he already lived there.
At some point, the two Zois became married automatically without my input.
It is unclear how or when the marriage was finalized.
Zois suddenly act weird: just do household everytime; he wanted to take a bath, even though he just showered. Autonomy crashed completely.
Relationship Desynchronization
Relationship panel:
Both Zois appear as family / married
Zoi info panels:
Both still show “Single”
Romantic interactions:
Female Zoi suddenly had only ONE romantic interaction left
Male Zoi had NO romance menu at all (Romance category disappeared completely)
Ambient / “Ghost-like” Behavior
Inside the home:
Refrigerator door opening without interaction
Chairs moving without anyone sitting
Water taps turning on/off
These effects occurred repeatedly and without context.
Savegame Loss (Most Critical Issue)
ALL saves before the engagement and wedding are gone
Autosaves and manual saves prior to these events were automatically deleted
No possibility to roll back
The save file is irreversibly corrupted
This is data loss, not just a gameplay bug.
Expected Result
Wedding appears in both Zois’ calendars
Both Zois appear at the event
Relationship state changes only after a successful event
Wedding outfits applied correctly
Relationship status consistent across:
Profile
Relationship panel
Interactions
No loss of previous save files
Actual Result
Event desync
Relationship state contradictions
Missing interactions
Ambient chaos
Complete loss of previous saves
Game state cannot be recovered
Impact
This is the lowest point of my experience with INZOI.
The game became unplayable, my story was destroyed, and my progress is permanently lost.
Until these issues are fixed, I cannot continue playing.
Additional Notes
This feels like a regression: weddings seemed functional before.
The issue appears to involve:
Calendar system
Relationship flags
Event triggers
Save handling
A recovery or rollback mechanism is urgently needed.
I am extremely disappointed, not because of a failed event, but because my entire save was lost.
Please treat this as a critical issue.
Can’t send any savegame as this is on Steam Cloud!
Update: I can now confirm that ALL saves before 09.02. were deleted, even though I only deleted saves created AFTER 09.02., 16:40.
The older saves had different names and were located further down the list.
This strongly indicates savegame corruption or incorrect save reference handling.
Details: Please share the date, error message, or screenshots/videos for issue verification.
A few things before I describe my problem…
I have not loaded any mods for inZOI nor have a downloaded any content off of the forums nor Canvas. I have been playing the game completely base.
My game is fully up-to-date and this was my first save. I just purchased this game about 2-3 weeks ago and always check for mini-updates before I boot up, every time.
I have had no crashes.
So, into the issue…
I married a non-player controlled Zoi that I had created and added to the city and…he married himself. We are both registering as single. We live under the same roof. We have the family relationship status. I have max’ed this relationship status out but none of the romance options have returned between us. If I try to use the max relationship cheat to add love, it gives an ‘failed to happen’ message so the game doesn’t register between my player char and this Zoi can even have an intimate relationship between us, not even an affair.
I will use the email I will receive from this forum post in order to send in my game save to have the team look over.
A few extra things of note…
I was a business owner before marrying this Zoi. I did not opt for the business to carry over when we got married as I didn’t realize that was an option I needed to click.
I did not max out the family relationship using a cheat. I did it genuinely through time and interaction.
Thank you for reporting this. Unfortunately, this issue has occured in various players’ games so far. The official team can merge your thread with the existing one here: Zoi marrying himself
EDIT: It’d be very helpful for the devs if you provide the affected save file here. The issue hasn’t been looked into or at least we haven’t been notified about it. Detecting the root of the bug might be easier with your save file to look into
Now that we have this bug in all variations of save files (new, old, with CC, vanilla), I think it’s safe to assume it isn’t specifically related to CC or mods.
I am trying really hard to get my save file over to the devs but even compressed it is still 103MBs. I tried submitting it via support center and it is still refusing to upload. And the email noted in Option 2 never arrived for my OG thread. I see they will accept a drive file but…I couldn’t see where they have a drive drop or acceptable drive links they will accept or how they want to receive the drive link.
That’s a lot, I agree. Thanks a lot for trying and not giving up
Just in case you’ve somehow mistaken the file, this would be the main file and should suffice for bug detection:
The Upload Save File post makes it seem like they want the entire folder. If they only need that particular piece of the save folder. I can do that. Devs (and anyone else curious), see attached.
I’ve found another thread titled “Zoi marrying himself” or “Marriage Glitch” describing the exact same behavior I experienced. This seems to be the same bug chain. Additionally, in my case, older save games BEFORE marriage were deleted or overwritten. Also multiple additional errors occured.
Krafton really needs to address this issue. I am clearly not the only player affected, and a bug where Zois can end up marrying themselves will leave many players extremely frustrated and unable to continue their saves.
I think this sounds like the same issue I experienced and reported in my thread “Big Bug Report.”
In my case, the most severe problem is that all my saves from BEFORE the marriage were apparently deleted or overwritten automatically.
I really hope this issue will be resolved. Since then, my Zois are also behaving very strangely.
I have described all related problems in detail in my thread, as this bug chain already starts with events not appearing in the partner’s calendar, and then escalates into multiple additional errors.
Even if the core issue is the same, I hope the developers or Krafton staff will take a look at my full case, because several connected bugs occurred, and only in my thread the entire chain of issues has been documented in detail.
Yes, I agree. This should be merged with the Zoi marrying himself thread, because it shows the same bug and even describes possible causes & consequences in detail. Thanks for your report and I’m really sorry your save file is affected by this terrible bug
This is my exact experience, too. Minus the prior saves deleting. I went back to the prior saves to play without them being married because I was frustrated with this.
