ootp starting screen black issue

kgi886533 · 03-23-2026, 04:55 AM

This is my current starting screen of ootp 27. When loading my edited game, it comes back to its normal state. But it shows nothing except those player card packs when it completes loading its starting screen. What is its problem?

Same here, basically. I can see the Menu but it sits behind this inert overlay, have latest patch and simply cannot play the game. FWIW this is on a Microsoft Surface device. Changing from full screen or changing resolution does not remove the obstruction.

Are you on the latest patch (50)?

We added in some stuff to prevent this from happening there.

Yes, latest patch.

That shouldn't still be happening

Anyway, you should be able to get things going again following the instructions here:
