Welp, it says it all... The game stopped starting for me since the last update 4 hours ago. :'(

This happens right after seeing the Klei logo on the splash screen. I hear the initial music and in that instant, it crashes.

Suggestions? Should I reinstall it?


Steps to Reproduce

Just start the game...




User Feedback


There seems to be some problem with steam not correctly cleaning up the install directory after the last update. You can try any of these to see if it "unsticks" the steam installation.

  • Right-click ONI -> Properties -> Local Files -> Browse local files .... go into the OxygenNotIncluded_Data folder and delete StreamingAssets, then Properties -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity of Game Files
  • Uninstall and reinstall the game through steam
  • Browse to the local files as above, uninstall the game, after uninstall finishes delete any files that are left over in the SteamApps/common/OxygenNotIncluded folder, and then reinstall.

Please be careful when deleting files on your hard drive, and let us know if any of these solutions fixes the problem for you!

Had a similar problem.

Removing the StreamingAssets folder did the trick.  Thank you so much!

BTW, the toggle box for activating the DLC remains at the Main Page - even though I have not bought the DLC (I was an Alpha tester).  The good news is that the DLC is not accessible.

Keep up the good work!
