I broke the game.

I have two monitors and changed the primary one. (From a 1920x1080 to a 4K screen) and since then i can't get the game to start. I disabled cloudsync, deinstalled the game, deleted local files (config, sav games etc.) and reinstated the 1920x1080 monitor as primary monitor. Reinstalled the game and it still won't start. Some ideas?

Hi,

What exactly appears when you try to open the game, a black screen or it doesn't even open?

Try to make this, open the "World of Contraptions\Data\Saves\config.xml" file and locate and set these paramters:

<DisplayIndex>0</DisplayIndex>
<ScreenWidth>1920</ScreenWidth>
<ScreenHeight>1080</ScreenHeight>

For a moment i see the loading screen flashing, it seems to have a red exclamation mark on it and then it closes. (thanks for responding!)

This is what i have present in my config.xml file now :
<DisplayIndex>0</DisplayIndex>
<ScreenWidth>1920</ScreenWidth>
<ScreenHeight>1080</ScreenHeight>

EDIT: Not anymore, it started just once.
so, uninstalling citrix and disabling my memory profile (DOCP since i am on AMD) didn't solve it.

Hi, i have taken a look at the eventviewer and found this:
Naam van toepassing met fout: World of Contraptions.exe, versie: 2019.4.28.33174, tijdstempel: 0x60b1b8af
Naam van module met fout: UnityPlayer.dll, versie: 2019.4.28.33174, tijdstempel: 0x60b1b9ff
(Excuse the dutch, but unityplayer.dll seemed to have issues.)

I googled the dll name inc error and event and came across several posts on fora and on reddit linking it to the use of a XMP profile on ram modules and the presence of the citrix client. (I use the first and have (had) the second.)
I uninstalled the citrix client and the game, rebooted and reinstalled the game. It seems to be working now.

----------------------------
Starting the game once with the 4k monitor disconnected resolved the unity.dll problem, now it just stands at loading t 5%.
----------------------------
Same error is back again, unity.dll generates errors in eventviewer.

Could you send me the game log files?

You can locate the log files in "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\JCP Games Studio\World of Contraptions", if possible send me all the folder content.

You can send me in this email: [e-mail]

I've send you the files that were left, i hope these are what you need. I have uninstalled the game and even got a refund from steam, but if we'd be able to get it to work i'll gladly buy it again.
