of course, having said that, the very first sentence of his description said; "THIS MODPACK REQUIRES ALL OPTIONAL DLC..." So I don't know where the confusion is...
This DLC mod does not work at all. I have disabled ALL mods and kept the Senarios and the DLC content. When I go to Single Player, Create game and either select a leader, map type, size, then click start or go through advanced options, the game GOES right back to the main menu with the words "Start Game." However if I use the Bastard version I can at least get a game going by selecting "Play now." So what is the issue with this mod? I am going to uninstall Civ6, reinstall it and try again. I will let you know.
UPDATE: THIS MOD IS BROKEN!!! Even with a fresh install, I am not able to play any sort of custom game.
@ananse - Is it just me, or is there no attack animation for deck-mounted weapons (cannon battery, deck catapult, etc) - when clicking air attack, it moves forward a tile and then sits there doing nothing until the damage is registered and the unit returns to normal.
not sure - can't make sense of the artdef file format but i assumed animations were separate from unitcombat types/combat classes - unless the developers decided to be an absolute **** and hardcode it this timeDoesn't the game treat them like aircraft though? What attack animation would it use?
When people respond to my posts, as you just did, it alerts me and makes it easy to respond. The above posts must have been replies to each other or to other commenters, which don't show up as alerts for me. This is one of several domains I try to check regularly for questions, but the safest bet is always to message me directly with any concerns to make sure I see them promptly. As far as my priorities go related to modding, this thread itself doesn't break the top ten ten.
I can't speak to the exact cause of people's crashes but I strongly suspect they stem from not following directions properly. This modpack requires all DLC to be downloaded and enabled. If you don't have the Aztec DLC enabled and you try to run a mod that references it, you'll get returned to the start screen. I have an alternate modpack available that is made for people without the DLC called "Ananse's BFG Cheap Bastard Modpack" which such persons would want to use instead.
re: the UI question about what different numbers signify, frankly I have no clue! CQUI is incorporated in its entirety because its miles better than the base game's UI, but I didn't write a single line of that code myself and wouldn't pretend to understand all of its features. I would suggest to people who are expecting a super high degree of professionalism here that I am a "one man band" working in my free time without compensation. If you notice a feature is incomplete, feel free to leave a note about it here or somewhere else, but understand that I probably know about the issue already and that it's incompleteness is likely a factor of time constraints.
In that sense I'm only *really* interested in game-breaking problems that cause freezes, crashes, or dramatically impact gameplay. Minor issues with text and display in a mod this large are just what you should expect at this time!
Is it at all possible to make your integration with Moar units modular so we can update those files independently?
This would also work wonders for people like myself that absolutely LOVE R.E.D. modpack that rescales units and adds formations with multiple units.
Im currently using R.E.D. with your mod but this makes it weird because all the vanilla units are smaller with multiple units in a formation that is very immersive and then there are these units you've integrated from More units (that has a patch with R.E.D.) that are as big as unmodded vanilla units and not in formations.
I just checked with the Cheap Bastard version - same crash, but once more only on my desktop. Laptop works fine with exact same mods. Weird.
Alright so I'm having the "START GAME" crashback to main menu... But I can also verify that I have all the DLC. It works fine on my laptop, but not my desktop - exact same mods installed, tried clean install of everything, still same problem. I'm flabbergasted here.
Works fine on two other rigs, though...

@anansethespider I'm still having the "start game" crash to main menu. I have all mods (Aztec, Vikings, and Poland) I've reinstalled 4 times, verified cache integrity, deleted each mod component separately then tried running it, and removed all mods except the DLC and this one. I've included the database log, if you or anyone is able to give me a heads up on where else to look I'd very much appreciate it; now that I've played with the modpack I can't go back to vanilla
Edit: Forgot to mention that the "Cheap Bastard" version works fine. But I'm absolutely 100% sure I have all three DLC's, they display correctly in Steam, and all show as purchased in the Steam store
This helps a lot, I'm looking at it now

I would strongly suspect this is directly related to your problem. Beyond that, I'm still puzzled as you are. The problem does appear to stem from the fact that you have the Aztec but not as optional DLC...
