Prison Architect crashing upon opening- Mac

[Silas_1290]

Good morning,

I was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue and hence might be able to help me with this problem. I bought the game back in 2014 through steam and recently haven't had much time to play so when trying to open it for the first time in a year or so it will not open, takes me to a black screen and mac loading wheel then crashes.

I have tried reinstalling the game, and reinstalling steam to no avail and steam support recommended i come here to ask for help as they are unable to provide assistance.

If anyone would be able to help please let me know!

Thank you.

Please try this:
- uninstall PA from Steam
- unsubscribe from ALL mods for this game in the Steam Workshop

Delete the following folders if still present:
- Steam/SteamApps/common/Prison Architect/

- C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Introversion/Prison Architect/
(keep any valued save games, of course)

- ⁨~/Library/⁨Application Support⁩/Paradox Interactive⁩/
To find that file, in Finder do cmd-shift-G to bring up the GOTO box. In there paste ~/Library/ .

- ⁨~/Library/⁨Application Support⁩/Prison Architect⁩⁩/
(except any valued save games in the /saves/ folder of course/

Now install PA again and see how that goes please!

If it works you can subscribe to mods again, but only ones that have been updated since the recent game patch.
