Schedule I – Troubleshooting Guide

This guide will help you fix common problems with Schedule I game.

How to Fix Common Issues with Schedule I

Multiplayer Rejoin Bug (Host)

To fix this error, go to:

  • C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\LocalLow\TVGS\Schedule I\Saves\STEAMID\SaveGame_1\Variables

Create a file named: HasExitedRV.json

Put this in it:

{
"DataType": "VariableData",
"DataVersion": 0,
"GameVersion": "0.3.3f9",
"Name": "HasExitedRV",
"Value": "True"
}

Restart your game, and invite your friends again.

You can get to the appdata directory on your windows computer by opening the Run program or pressing the Windows Key + R at the same time. Then searching for %appdata% will take you to:

  • C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\Roaming

From there, you can just go up one folder and then click through the folders to reach the one I listed above. Of course, this is assuming that you have a typical Windows installation and your default drive letter is C, and you have not migrated your game to another drive, etc. For 95% of people, yours will be located where I suggested.

if your game is stuck downloading:

  • Go to top left of your steam and click “Steam”.
  • Click Settings.
  • Click Downloads.
  • Change your download region.

How to Reduce the Crashes

How to reduce the crashes to a minimum or completely:

  • Go into your settings in the game itself and turn the FPS Cap down between 60-90; do not go above 90.
  • This ensures during the 1% lows that your GPU can optimize the game when those lows happen.
  • And it gives the GPU more excess usage to use when running the game so it doesn’t cap at 100% when running it.

Missing Objects in Laundering Locations Fix

  1. Backup Your Original Save: Navigate to:
    • C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\TVGS\Schedule I\Saves\YOURSTEAMID\
    • (replace %USERNAME% with your Windows username and YOURSTEAMID with your Steam ID). Copy the folder corresponding to your main/broken save game (e.g., SaveGame_0, SaveGame_Main, etc.) to a safe location.
  2. Create New Save: Launch the game and start a completely new playthrough/save game.
  3. Enable & Open Console: Go into the game’s settings and ensure the developer console is enabled. Press the tilde key (~) to open the console window.
  4. Claim Businesses in New Save: In the console, type the following commands one by one, pressing Enter after each. This grants ownership of these businesses in the new save, which should trigger the creation of necessary files.
    • setowned Laundromat
    • setowned Car_wash
    • setowned Taco_ticklers
    • setowned Post_office
  5. Save the New Game: In the console, type save and press Enter.
  6. Exit Game: Close the new save and exit the game completely.
  7. Locate New Object Files:
    • Navigate to the save game directory again: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\TVGS\Schedule I\Saves\YOURSTEAMID\
    • Identify the folder for the new save you just created (it might be SaveGame_1 or the next available number). Open this folder.
    • Go into the Businesses subfolder.
    • For each of the businesses you claimed (Laundromat, Car_wash, Taco_ticklers, Post_office):
      • Open that business’s folder (e.g., Laundromat).
      • Open the Objects subfolder within it.
      • Find the file named launderingstation_xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is a unique identifier).
      • Copy this specific file to a temporary, easily accessible location like your Desktop. Make sure you label or remember which file came from which business folder. Do not use the same file for multiple businesses. You need the unique launderingstation_... file from each respective business directory in the new save.
  8. Replace Files in Original Save:
    • Navigate back to the folder for your original/broken save (the one you backed up in Step 1).
    • Go into its Businesses subfolder.
    • For each of the affected businesses (Laundromat, Car_wash, Taco_ticklers, Post_office):
      • Open that business’s folder (e.g., Laundromat).
      • Open the Objects subfolder within it.
      • Take the corresponding launderingstation_... file you copied to your Desktop (e.g., the one from the new save’s Laundromat\Objects folder) and place it into this Objects folder, replacing any existing file with the same name if necessary.
  9. Launch and Test: Start the game and load your original/broken save. Check the affected business locations to see if the laundering objects are now present and functional.
