Rpg maker error failed to initialize graphics
RPG Maker MZ
Yes, probably have some graphics set up in your database which you removed.
Could be a title screen, or a vehicle sprite maybe (press F9, go to System)

Could try verifying the integrity of your files to see if it makes a difference. Perhaps something is missing.
(Right Click on RPG Maker MZ in your Library/ Click «Properties»/ Go to «Local Files»/ Click on «Verify Integrity of Application Files»)
After that, if some files did download, you can then create a new project and see if it playtests successfully.

I tried this earlier but it didn’t work, I tried again just now but it also didn’t work.
Sorry that this didn’t help. Perhaps a screenshot could enlighten us on what the issue is.
Assuming you’re running this on a Windows Operating System (Windows 8.1 or 10 for example), you can try the «Snip/ Snip&Sketch» app to click and drag a screenshot. After that, upload the image as «Art» in your profile with no specific game, certify this was indeed made by you, then copy & paste the image url to this discussion in a reply.
Besides all the aforementioned, I propose another solution: Create a new project, copy the «img» folder located inside the project folder. Lastly, paste the «img» folder into the the defective project folder. If windows asks «Replace item», say no/skip. Any missing image files should be copied into your defective «img» folder.
If you can, share a screenshot of the error and I can help you further.
Edit: You can also tell us what kind of images you decided to delete and how. If you deleted the images using the Resource Manager, you cannot restore it. However, if you deleted it from the folder directly, you can still salvage the files from the Recycle Bin assuming it has not been emptied recently.

Oh crap, probably should’ve mentioned; I’m on macOS, which probably means you guys won’t be able to help me further.
When I removed the files i thought i wouldn’t need and got an error from my first project, i tried making a new project and the playtesting it without altering it in any way, but it still gave me the error.
RPGMaker MZ (1096900) [exact same problems in RPGMaker MV (363890)] #4185
Comments
- Name of the game with compatibility issues: RPGMaker MZ
- Steam AppID of the game: 1096900
System Information
- GPU: GTX-1080
- Driver/LLVM version: 450.66
- Kernel version: 5.8.5-arch1-1
- Link to full system information report as System Info Gist here
- Proton version: 5.0-9
I confirm:
- that I haven’t found an existing compatibility report for this game.
- that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Symptoms
- «Help -> Contents» freezes the game
- Tiny white box artifact when using the tutorial
- In the first tutorial when typing in text, you have to click the text box multiple times for it to register that you are selecting the text box (have to fight it to type)
- In the first tutorial when you open the «database», the program slows down for a few seconds (regardless of hardware) and has ghosting of the cursor/tutorial window (think of old-school solitaire ghosting on Windows). It does fix itself after those few seconds.
- When doing the first tutorial, the «stone cave» icon disappears when you go to the next step. Not sure why.
- Playtest screen pops up for a second and then disappears (supposed to load your game)
Reproduction
Below is my current system, but I also tested it on an Ubuntu 20.04 system with the same results
OS: EndeavourOS Linux x86_64
Kernel: 5.8.5-arch1-1
Shell: bash 5.0.18
Resolution: 2560×1440
DE: Xfce
WM: Xfwm4
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700 (16) @ 3.966GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080
Memory: 2772MiB / 32125MiB
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
I hope this is the right place for me to add feedback:
OS: Fedora 32 x64
Kernel: 5.8.7
Shell: 5.0.17
Resolution: 1920×1080
DE: Gnome 3
WM: Gnome 3 Shell
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5
GPU: AMD R7 240 card with the amdgpu driver (using its GCN1.0 experimental vulkan support)
Memory: 16GB
I tried Proton-5.0.9 as well, and while the playtest launches for me, it has major problems:
- t takes really long to launch (multiple seconds) and once it’s visible the entire playtest window is black for another 10ish seconds, and then the actual game shows a loading spinner for yet another twenty seconds. Running this playtest with native nw.js takes
3 seconds for the same sequence
(playtest is what happens when you press the «Play» button inside RPG Maker, it launches an nw.js instance, basically, since the games are HTML5 apps. But obviously it’ll launch the windows build of nw.js — not the native one that runs just fine with none of the above issues)
Help > Contents freezes for me as well. The tutorial for some reason I can complete with no obvious issues, but maybe I misunderstood the issues with it pointed out above.

we can’t tell you what you did wrong if you don’t tell us what you’re doing.
with what options did you deploy, what is the computer’s display that didn’t work?
in case of the macbook that is simple: all internet files are automatically blocked from executing on a mac, and your friend needs to tell his system that that game is valid to open.
He needs to check the mac help on how it is don, it is usually a special key to hold while opening but I don’t remember which one.
