Cities: Skylines Dev Tracker

Paradox support are investigating this but as it's only happening to some users and doesn't have a clear cause, there is no news yet. I recommend keeping an eye on this thread:

Originally posted by =Donkey=: Thank you Co-Avanya. reinstalled the launcher and to my surprise the game launched. What weird is, when i tried restarting it a second time I came back to the first problem.

Hmm that is strange. Best to contact Paradox Support then. Maybe there's a known fix for it, maybe it's related to the issues Steam is having at the moment.

If you haven't already, please try the steps for reinstalling the launcher detailed in this thread. And if that doesn't help, follow the steps at the end to contact Paradox Support.

How far do you get? Do you see the Paradox Launcher? Can you get to the main menu of the game? Is it a particular save that doesn't launch or can you not start a new game either?

Originally posted by RichNdeD .: I can start ONE and ONLY ONE game. If I try to save the current game, it over writes the existing game. Giving it a different name over writes the previous name. So, it becomes impossible to have a history of other maps from which to play.

We'll need logs to look into this. Please make a report on our support forum so we can have a proper look at what's going on.

You don't need to log into your Paradox account to play Cities: Skylines. You should still see the options to press Play and Resume in the launcher to start the game. Are those buttons missing?

Are you using any mods that affect traffic and public transport in any way? Or does this happen in a completely unmodded game?

We'll need to have a look at your log then, which unfortunately means I'll need you to make a post on our support forum as Steam doesn't let you attach files here. You can attach it directly when making a post on the support forum here:

We need the output_log.txt which can be found in the Cities_Data folder where the game is installed, usually something like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Cities_Skylines\Cities_Data

You can also find the folder by right-clicking on the game in your Library, select Manage and then Browse Local Files. Then just go into the Cities_Data folder and find the output_log.txt

Most props are not available ingame to be placed freely. They are available in the asset editor for decorating buildings.

Mods like Find It 2 let you access and place props in the game that are otherwise hidden. Note that they may not work fully when placed like that. Props with special markers such as seating and parking will not be used by citizens when placed directly in the world. They are only used when inside a building.

If you haven't already I recommend setting up a custom-sized pagefile of at least 32000 MB. Here are a few guides for how that's done:

If the game still crashes after doing that and restarting your computer for the changes to take effect, then please let me know.

Try verifying the game files through Steam to make sure the sound files are as they should be. Here's a guide on how that's done:

I would not recommend this solution. The issue with Citrix is that Unity (the engine Cities: Skylines runs on) thinks it's a graphics card. You may be able to run the game with this option, but it's running of the virtual GPU Citrix creates, NOT your actually GPU.

If you're on Windows 10 the easiest way is to uninstall Citrix and then install the version from the Windows 10 App Store. It lacks the feature that causes problems with Unity games.

Alternatively, you can reinstall Citrix from the Command Prompt using the following command:

Please check your subscribed mods against this list of known broken mods. If I remember correctly that error is from an old broken mod.

Yes, workshop planes work with Airport Areas too. Most of them will likely be medium planes as that's the default size, but there are also some made for the Airports DLC which provide options for small and large planes.

Are you using the mod 81 tiles? There's a known issue with it lowering metro tracks on the next load after purchasing a new tile.

Originally posted by RainyGosling0: for me it not that planes arnt showing up its that they all go to same stall and get jammed instead of spreading out

Can you post a screenshot of the airport? Just the cargo section of it.

There are no visitors without passenger planes and plane stands. Cargo does not have visitors. Sorry for the confusion!

I had a look at your city and the cargo stands are both offset from the road. Deleting them and placing new ones on the road (or just moving them properly close to the road with Move It) did the trick and cargo planes started arriving.

You can upload your city to the workshop and we can have a look. To do this go into Content Manager (from the Main Menu), find Savegames on the left, find your save and click Share. Then give it a name and a description if you want, click Publish, and copy the link of the page that opens and post it here.
