I recently upgraded my App Store version of Civ V with the the patch and added the Scrambled DLC. Since then I have been unable to enable mods by editing the mainmenu.lua file. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a workaround? While I am not a newbie, I am far from an expert.
App Store Upgrade Breaks Mods

UPDATE
The Steam version still supports mods with the .lua file change. I have compared the Steam and AppStore versions with the latest patch. I can't find a difference in the AppStore version that is likely to cause this problem within the scripts and XML files. So I can't offer a workaround.

Using your alternative edit for the .lua file doesn't work for me.
Your first screenshot has "Invalid version number" at the bottom, and a DLC advertisement below the menu options. This is normally an indication that you have corrupted the .lua script. Did you use TextEdit to add the two hyphens? That can result in a corruption. See my note in section 3 of the sticky thread.
You are using the French version of the game. I expect Lachlan is also using that version, as he is French, and he reports that the Mods menu can be enabled in his version. I suspect that is the reason you are able to make the Mods menu work, while users of the English version cannot.
