i had an issue where i had blck screen with no icons or map ect. but the games ran. if u press f1 u get details about all thats going on with ur game ur loading. issue for me was winget: element failed to load stuff.

fix:
its a matter of permissions read/write
head to users. your account. sideclick mydocuments> and uncheck read only(note)if this doesnt work. try unchecking read only on the user folder itself


followed by simple clear cache in byond preference and just incase be ready to try new install for byond: also if this does not work .

i hoped this helped a few people who wanna start playing their fav games
