SkyRainz Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) My friends and I play in my world. The other day, one of my friends could not enter the game. Whenever my friend tried to join my server it, My friend would be stuck loading the game on "character creation". His console only writes one error: "Null ReferenceException: object reference not set to an instance of an object". My one other friend could log in except this one Here is the latest Log on my friends' computer https://pastebin.com/6kz4TyPL This is showed on her commands https://imgur.com/a/Dwz81sP She was able to join if i host a new world or if she join her own world. i tried to find her player file but i couldn't understand Here is the image of the folder on my computer AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie\Saves\Navezgane\New World\Player https://imgur.com/a/YibUeLs Edited May 17, 2022 by SkyRainz (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 We really need a copy of her entire log file instead of a snippet of the error. There is ‘usually’ more info early in the log which leads to that error. That being said, it sounds like her profile is corrupted on your server since she can play on new seeds. To delete her player profile you need to go the current saves folder. Instructions for finding your saves depends on your operating system and can be found by reading this pinned topic: Click into that folder until you find the player folder. In there are 3 files for each eos number. Now here you need to look at your server log at the point she joins the server or attempts to join and she is assigned an eos number which corresponds to her eos files in the player folder. Delete those 3 files. Now she should be able to join but she’ll be level one. Make her an admin temporarily so she can use the giveselfxp command to get her levels back and use the creative menu to get her items back. Or you could post the entire log from her game and we can see if something else is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRainz Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 Thanks for the reply. Also here is the log file, https://pastebin.com/2dGZFFFL So the only way is to delete her player file ? Also may i ask what could have caused the player file to be corrupted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugginator Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Well, unfortunately, that system (https://pastebin.com/2dGZFFFL) doesn't meet the minimal specs for the game, so that there is likely a cause for random data corruption if it's hosting or not.

SkyRainz Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) Does this mean that the main reason is her low spec computer could not support and that this issue is mostly likely gonna happen again in the future ? Or did i incorrecty interpreted. Edited May 17, 2022 by SkyRainz (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Yes, she needs more ram. She only has 4gigs of ram and her videocard only has 4gigs videoram. There is a line in the log stating there was not enough ram to perform a function. She really needs a minimum 8gigs of ram and a videocard having a minimum 8 gigs of video ram. Not having enough ram can and will cause data corruption, and in this case player profile corruption. You can delete her profile as I mentioned above but the likelihood of it happening again is pretty high. It looks like she is using a laptop so upgrading the videocard is out but depending on the laptop, she may be able to add more ram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star69 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Oops……I should have looked it up rather than going from memory. I can’t imagine the settings needed to get the game running smoothly with 4 gigs of vram. 2 hours ago, Jugginator said: This part is incorrect kinda. 8 gigs of VRAM is nice yes but you can get away with 4 or 2 GB for this game.

SkyRainz Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 So 4 GB is fine ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preferably 16 Gb. The only thing her computer needs is more system ram. Her cpu and gpu will run the game fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruentusDK Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I can join games without issue. However, if I try to start my own, at the player creation portion of generating Player, I get this same NullReferenceException that just spams red until the game crashes. I have reinstalled. I have Cleaned my game files from the launcher. Deleted any PLAYER.XML or any Saves from my C:\Users\renfu\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie Can't find the remnant that is still causing this issue.
