Title: [MOD Help] Can't make a new save
Post by: HarmlessOrange on April 14, 2021, 04:48:39 PM
Hello, I've downloaded some new mods and now I cannot make a new save. The game won't generate the world. It won't crash or lag just be stuck in the "Generating world..." phase.

Problem is going back didn't help either. Now even when I remove those mods I cannot make a new save file.

I've tried making a new mod order from scratch but it didn't work, it only created more problems.

Here's my (current) mod list: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cVtqeaKcSm6XbEPCcEf5O9tKMWNESmwpL7BbKPfYQgY/edit?usp=sharing

And here's the debug log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xyMl9kbXosTTf6zY-hxGJHD0AkPIZkUg/view?usp=sharing

Hi,
you don't want to made a new save, you want to create a new colony.

Deactivate all mods and activate developer mode at the option.
Then reactivate them at small batches (5-10,depend how sure you are they don't cause errors).
When the log window after activation popup and you see red text one or mods cause errors.
Try to identify the mod (thats why you should use small batches).
Check if you don't miss a required mod for the troublesome mod, look at the mod discussion if you find some hints but better don't use mod that throw out errors.

Once the logwindow is errorfree you can try to create a new colony.

Solved it: All this time I've been trying to do the Dragorian Wild scenario (One of the add-ons to the Dragorian race mod). It had your faction start as "New Beginning" which somehow prevented the world from generating. Using scenario editor to change it to something else (or simply doing a different scenario) fixed the issue.

The red errors meanwhile were caused by Oscar Obnoxious storyteller.
