Game crashes after Klei Logo, since DLC was deactivated

Same thing happened to me

Same thing happened to me. Made a post about it.

 

I manually deleted all the files and folders from \steamapps\common\OxygenNotIncluded then used Steam to Verify files which reinstalled it.  This fixed the issue for me.  It seems when you deactivate the DLC Steam reinstalls ONI, so it must be leaving some residual files behind which causes the crashing, I certainly have less files in the above folder after the manual delete and reinstall.

I tried deleting everything (from all folders that ONI made), but I can't get past the main menu. The main menu works again, but I cannot start a game.

On Discord it has become apparent that some may also need to rename the folder located at Documents\Klei\OxygenNotIncluded - WARNING This folder contains all your save files so rename it and DON'T delete it.  After renaming Verfify your installation through Steam.

To anyone still experiencing this problem: While the game is closed:

Could you try going to your OxygenNotIncluded install folder (right-click the game, Properties -> Local Files -> Browse Local Files), then delete the StreamingAssets folder (which is found in OxygenNotIncluded_Data).

Then, right-click ONI -> Properties -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity of Game Files

 

Let me know if this resolves it for you. Thanks!

It worked for me, thank you!

Although steam validated the files, it would still crash. I had to reinstall the game but it works now! 

I had the Alpha running for 5 days never a crash. Today on the 8th (BETA RELEASE) the game crashed on the Klei screen with red missing file dump.

I sent into Steam and verifired files. It found 175 bad files and updated. I then was able to post to the main menu.

TLDR File verification worked for me today. But it only got me to the main menu where it crashed again on New Game.

FYI I do not have a beta option in the steam menu to choose from either.

I would recommend reinstalling your game as I had to do the same, even after steam verified the files.

Someone at Klei should emphasize the the DLC option is only on the Main Menu Lower Left corner and there is no need to go to the Steam Properties tab to enroll.

I reinstalled the game and now the DLC activation in the lower left is gone. BUILD ! CS-444111 ! and no opt in available in the steam properties tab. I feel like George Russell right now kicked back down to release build "Williams"

@BlueTeamMember Just to make sure it's not a misunderstanding: The alpha ended and the alpha access keys have been closed. The activation button and options in Steam DLC manager won't show up now unless Spaced Out is purchased.

Are you seeing these issues even with the DLC purchased?

NOT after purchase but before purchase it looped on 1 machine and the 2nd machine reverted back to the base game.

Both run fine with new DLC after the deleting of the folder as you suggested. But if you don't buy the DLC it looked like 2 different games for some reason.

After purchase it both computers synced up ok. but before purchase 1 machine had the DLC activation and the other PC did not.

@BlueTeamMember Thanks for the details! I appreciate it. Glad you're able to play now.
