Cannot play 64bit
When i try to launch the game on steam the game does not start, nothing at all happens. The game will also not start from the 64bit launcher in the game folder. The game only starts in 32 bit. Yes i have 64bit windows 10. Yes I updated my graphics drivers. Yes i have 64bit java installed. I have reinstalled, i have restarted multiple times. I have tried Beta and non-beta builds of the game. I have m.2 nvme, 9700k, 2070 super. please help

Can you try starting in 64 bit mode again (best way to do it directly through the Steam library)
After that go to C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid
Open the console.txt
Copy everything from there to https://pastebin.com/
Share the link to the pastebin here.

i tried to launch the game again. I do not know if it has generated a new txt, this is the only one, it may be from when i played on 32 bit earlier https://pastebin.com/YTpyzQZy

Seems like it still the 32 bit version since the console seems fine here. In which case I recommend you go to the game folder "Steam Library > Rightclick ProjectZomboid > Properties > Local Files > Browse Local Files"

And start the game using "ProjectZomboidOpenGLDebug64.bat", it should show up the console and launch in 64 bit, so it should create the console log and if not you should see the errors show up in the cmd window.

I launched the game using the .bat and it seemed to work fine, i tried to launch it normally again and it still doesnt work but i have a new console.txt from the debug https://pastebin.com/62b2tzUJ

Very interesting, I cannot spot any errors or anything wrong in that console that would indicate as to why launching it normally wouldnt work. I suppose if its not too much of a hassle you can keep launching the game in 64 bit mode through that bat file right? There is also a ProjectZomboid64.bat file in that folder as well, which will not have the cmd running in the background.
