Can't enable custom content after update

I had custom content enabled with a few videos for the TV, but after the update to 0.9.0b_0004 it has stopped working.

The setting is on, i've been using it before, but clicking the TV to start a video it says the usual Custom Content is disabled.


Maybe it has something to do with the 8 day thing i read?

I'm on day 17, so I don't quite think so.


Any help would be nice : ) Otherwise i'll have to explore the depths of space without constant memes playing at 400% volume

Edit: It seems like  Okay so I did 2 things at once:

  • Started a fresh appdata folder / generated new configs
  • Linux: Created a new proton profile in Steam under experimental rather than hotfix (which triggered the above)

 Everything works, TV took some spam but I got video feed on channel_00. Others are saying that the below was all it took to fix it for them, others had no luck. I have yet to see more than 1 Linux comment amongst everyone sharing issues so I imagine it's the config. If you are one of these unfortunate few, you might have to delete your config folder and start fresh. If you do, ensure you back-up all data before deleting anything.


First step is to, right before you load your save, validate that the option is enabled (ofc). It is located in the individual save-file options rather than in the game options now. If you can even toggle it then the option is working, it's normally highlighted red and unselectable until you finish Day 7

If it's enabled and you're still experiencing problems, perhaps the issue carried over from 0.9a and you might have it disabled in 0.8's config setting.

For some reason the config option from 0.8  still seems to affect 0.9 saves. Reload, change or at least validate that hijinx didn't occur, and pray bcuz that's all I got at the moment.

Hope you figure it out!

Hey! Thanks for the help,


Unfortunately i've tried everything but nothing seems to work. I've changed appdata folder, regenerated settings, fresh installed, but it seems something's wrong with my save. I guess no more memes for me ;(


I'll update if I find some fix. Thanks dud!

Took a look through the bug reports Google doc and it says a patch is in progress. So now we wait.

Dang. I guess I just have to wait. This was exactly what I was looking for, but not the answer I wanted.

I guess I will wait as well.

i fixed it by following Freyr05's instructions
install version 8.2c

start game
go to settings and enable custom content
change version back to unstable (currently 9.0b_0004)

play game normally with custom content :D

Custom Content is broken as of 0.9.0 Shadow Test Build. 
You can try some work arounds like using the config file from 0.8.2c though you can have some unwanted side effects.

Such as? I'd love to use custom content but I'd like to know what risks I'd be taking.

That is so ominous, you HAVE to give us more information!?
