Project Zomboid

[SOLVED] Black Screen After Character Creation!
So, as the title says, I'm experiencing a glitch where I cannot host a multiplayer server. I've tried every other fix I've seen from other people with this predicament, but nothing has worked. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Do you have any mods enabled? Does it happen without them?

The bug was encountered when I had mods enabled, but now it's spread to with, and without mods. I've tried just having a singular random mod enabled, and none. Same result. A lot of people I've seen have this issue, is there any solution?

Replicate the issue without any mods first.
After that, can you share your logs.zip file found in C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid?
You can use any file-sharing website of your choice or a temporary one like filetransfer.io for example.

If I did it wrong, lemme know. Even if you can't fix this, thanks for your time. The community really appreciates what you do.

Unfortunately the last 5 logs all show a ton of mods, which are likely the cause of the issue.
I recommend deleting the "mods" folder in the Zomboid folder.
After that, create a new server settings name, such as "servertest1" and start it without adding any mods and changing any settings to see if that launches correctly.

None of the mods were enabled on the server in question, but I'll try that.

After thoroughly uninstalling every mod, the loading process works. I'll install a few dozen mods at a time to see which was the cause of this error, and I'll post my findings here. Thank you for your aid! I sincerely appreciate it!

Inconclusive findings.

ive hosted a server for me and my friend, we have played over20 hours and got bases and all, but then i decided to instal a mod called ''modtemplate''. It gave me two other places to spawn i choosse one of them, but when i spawned in my screen is all black. How do i kill my charecter in commands

There is no kill command, you would have to teleport away.
