Users who have reported these "Could not initialise Steam API" errors in the past have usually been able to solve it by either just exiting and restarting the Steam client, and/or restarting their computer. A screenshot of the error message that appears might be useful as well (if you save it in jpeg format then you should be able to post it as an attachment). Details on where to find your log file can be found in the pinned thread at the top of the bugs forum. If that still doesn't work then please can you post your log file (as an attachment) from after B18 fails to start. If it does then perform a clean uninstall of A17b, along with the registry cleaner in step 4, and then try again to install B18. If you still can't get B18 to work then please try installing A17b (from the Beta's tab) and check if that still works or not. I don't use Steam that often myself but I can't recall anyone encountering an issue with Steam not detecting the game to uninstall it before, so this is certainly a strange one if that's what happened (did you delete the game files through your O/S?). the Steam uninstaller gave you an error saying it couldn't detect the game or the file or something? (yes?). "B: In Steam library, right-click RimWorld and select Uninstall". So you followed the instructions, performed step 1 okay (yes?), and then during step 2 where you have to. "how the special virtual uninstaller couldn't locate the rimworld file". So if anyone can find another fix, or make this one work leave it here I could use it.Īlso if you find the fix u r a Lord_Connor69 - Can you please give more detail about what happened where you say. I don't have a second) And I could list how the special virtual uninstaller couldn't locate the rimworld file to going through all the files I could find until I found the ones with the appid.txt and other rimworld stuff then deleted it manually. Okay.Ya just spent the last 2 and a half hours following all of the steps listed and there's no change. Thanks I'll try all the steps (might take a bit) then get back to this forum to confirm if it works or not. Have you both tried performing a full clean reinstall yet? Details here: AndJusticeForAll - It looks like you've already tried several aspects of a full clean reinstall (but looks like you've missed the registry entries), but please try performing one because unless you methodically perform all the steps involved then you might miss something and leave a trace of the game behind (which might mean the issue remains along with it). Thank you so much and enjoy this wonderful game and the new update ! If anyone has an idea I would gladly try it ! ![]() Checked the integrity of the game filesĪaaaand I think that's it, and it still doesn't work. Uninstalled the game, manually deleted the Rimworld folder, and installed it again ![]() Launched the game manually as an administrator from the Steam folder Checked for updates for my graphic card, and the steam client Disconnected from steam, exited it, and connected again I've tried looking online but nothing worked. It's worth noting that I've never experienced this error before, with Rimworld or any other game on Steam, and I have 260+hrs on Rimworld about 80 hours on Vanilla, the rest on heavily modded games. All these issues disappear if I go back to alpha17b, I only have this problem with the beta18 version. I have also 2 weird lines of green pixels, one at the bottom of my screen the other one on the right side. Everytime I start the game I get the 'Could not initialize Steam API' error message, except I cannot click on any of the buttons ('Ignore' and 'Quit') and hitting escape does nothing either. Just like many of you I was really excited to play Rimworld after the new update except that it seems I just can't get it to work.
