[Slothster1988]

Game start menu loads, but when I click my saved game its shows the screen below. Just black with the comands at the bottom. Got game last night, played 3 hours, want to play more today but cant. Love this game please help.

I did try the settings thing that is common as you can see in the text file. I also validated the files through Steam.

Did you by any chance get hacked by Naix? It looks like you're connected and need to get a new x-server to me.

When I saved last night I finished the starter thing and got to the place where I could start taking jobs of the board, saved the game and went to bed.

Exact same issue. Happened when the game crashed from tabbing out. When I tried to relog, I got greeted by the same screen.

Odd, are you guys playing on Mac or PC?

From that screenshot you are definitely connected, it shows your (fake) IP adress and username, but this is usually something that happens as part of a specific mission.

Does the reboot command do anything for you? Or use scan and try to copy the x-server from whatever node you find?

[Memetic Singularity]

used Reboot command, rebooted ok until it started showing errors. Then transitioned to the usual screen, rebooting again and showing the same errors.

Here is what happens after reboot.

I just got to the part where I can see the board to get tasks from Entropy, but have not taken one yet. Im not very far in the game. IDK what to do. Should I just start a new game?

[Memetic Singularity]

Ok, did some tests with another account on the game and it seems this "nothing screen" issue occurs when you rm* your first computer's system folder.
It's essentially what happens when you delete system32 on an irl pc.
I feel incredibly dumb after realising I was just rm*'ing all the folders when the e-mail just asked to delete a single file.
I don't think there's a solution for this, bar just deleting the save and starting a new game.
The crash on tab persists, thought, but I think that's an unrelated thing.

If you have an antivirus try to ignore the game in it.

Have you even been following the conversation above? Because that has nothing to do with the issue.

you deleted your whole sys folder?
k, scan your computer, find that other computer that's always connected, go to it's sys folder, and do scp * /sys. Should do it, never tried though

right im pretty sure you got hacked.
(you went into a proxy server and then Naix told u in mail say good bye to your x-server)

To fix this:
open the game, type reboot.
watch it closely, if u see a red line with the words x-server in it then it means u don't have it.
what your gonna do it type scan, then connect to the other connection.
if you havent already hacked it, type probe and run all the hacks till you can porthack and get in.
then use "cd sys" to get into the system files. type "scp *" and wait for it to finish. then reconnect back to your pc (by connect [ip] or scan the pc to see your connection again).
next type reboot and this time you shouldn't see andy red lines (if you do it means u did a step wrong).

everything should be back to normal. Except that the GUI will be ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up and different color. this is because every pc or server u connect to has its own x-server. every x-server is different but for me the best one is the one in the Entropy Asset Server/Entropy Test Server. Later you will have access to many others.
