Project Zomboid

Problem with PZServer.bat
Hi all,

I love survival games and it is great to be able to test them out with friends, I've tried running a server, I've got the db file, added in entries for myself and a friend to play it, port forwarded it, just need to start the server by running the .bat file.

I run ProjectZomboidServer.bat but I get this error message:

"D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Projectzomboid\jre64\bin\java.exe is not a valid Win32 application"

When I click "OK", the .bat updates to say:

Access is denied

D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid>PAUSE
Press any key to continue . . .


I know this is early access, so if you need any other specs/information to help diagnose this problem/tell me what I have done wrong then tell me and I will see what I can provide.

Of course, I did have a quick look in the bat. That has fixed the error.

Getting a new error now, but I am assuming I am right in thinking that although I can run the game with my low specs, I won't be able to host a server and play at the same time, ala minecraft:

"
Error occurred durring initialisation of VM
Could not reserver enough space for object heap
Error: could not create the Java virtual Machine
Error: A Fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
"


Shame, sounds like it can't utilise enough RAM (because I don't have as much as it wants/needs. Obviously this is entirely my fault and no fault of the game)

Additional info: Currently only have 2GB of ram /weep

Got lucky and it was up and running, managed to connect to it, although I could only see menus in game, bag space, chat, health details etc. But everything else was black. Resizing only caused the game client (not the server) to crash (the terminal just loops). Not sure what is causing that. The game still registers as playing, as i was able to pick items out of a fridge even though I couldn't see my character, or any of the game world.

Visual displays work fine in build 23, so haven't been able to pin point the cause
