  • Details: Hello,

    I would like to report several issues encountered in InZOI since the December update. I feel that the game is overall functioning worse than before.

    1. Crash in build mode (brush tool)
      When I am in build mode and use the brush (terrain / paint), the game can crash abruptly. It closes instantly, without an error message or warning.

    2. Canvas Limitation (sharing impossible beyond 100 MB)
      It is now impossible to share or load creations exceeding 100 MB in the Canvas. This limit makes the tool very difficult to use, as the majority of creations or textures quickly exceed this size.

    3. Zoï Needs Blocked
      The need gauges for my Zoïs no longer increase correctly:

    • sleep does not increase even after sleeping,

    • entertainment does not increase after activities,

    • other needs also appear to be affected.

    This completely blocks gameplay progression.
    4. Lag and General Latency
    Since this update, I have noticed much more lag, latency, and a lack of overall smoothness, both in build mode and in normal gameplay.

    These issues significantly impact the gaming experience. I hope they can be analyzed and fixed in a future update.

    Thank you for your work and for the attention given to this feedback.

    Sincerely,

Hey there, welcome to the inZOI forum!

Reporting multiple bugs in one thread makes it very difficult for the inZOI team to organize them, so I suggest you separate them :grinning_face:

Here are existing threads which deal with the bugs you mentioned. Please feel free to add your feedback and opinion to them. This increases the visibility of each topic for the devs:

Crash in build mode (brush tool): Game crash after Update

Canvas limitation: no specific thread, so please open a new one for this topic in the Wishlist category, since it’s not really a bug

Zoi needs blocked: Sleep Need Won’t fill
Hunger need reduces too fast on48 minutes

Lag & General Latency: In case there are specific issues you want to report, please do so in new threads. You could also take a look at this one which sounds very similar: Major Performance Regression After December Update

Thank you for reporting! :clap:
