BUG With Certain Techs

[worldwarli]

Howdy all, I apologize if this is not the appropriate place to post this but I have been encountering a game-breaking bug upon reaching the mid-Medieval era. I am unable to research technologies such as Compass and Machinery and as soon as I click on these techs, the game freezes and crashes. This happens even when running only VP and submods and I don't know what to do.

Hi, @worldwarli Would you please report this bug to the project's Github page (https://github.com/LoneGazebo/Community-Patch-DLL/issues)? In order for developers to look into this issue, they will need to know the mod version, the mods that you are using, and they will need a savegame before the crash.

Probably a corrupted installation. Paging @vyyt !

I'll post it on the github and attempt a reinstall, thank you both!

Aaaaaa!!! Switching to panic mode. What have I done? It wasn't me!

I have no idea what could be the culprit here, never heard of anything like this. @worldwarli , the freezes happen only when you click these certain techs, correct? Would you upload a screenshot of the tech tree? Have you tried reinstalling VP? Is your game in English? Is your Civ5 up to date?

I tried reinstalling vp but that just brought back the scroll right issue, I'll take a screenshot momentarily. My game is in English and my Civ is up to date.

What do you mean by scroll right issue? That the tech tree cannot scroll and the tech connections/arrows are like jumbled?

If yes, then your EUI might be landing in a wrong location. Is your Civ5 installed on drive C: or somewhere else?

(But it's strange that you would get as far as medieval in this case)

Initially when I had it installed I had an issue where I was unable to scroll right on the tech tree, but this was on account of I didn't have Wonders of the Ancient World. Getting Wonders of the Ancient World solved this issue but then I encountered the problem with the medieval era techs. I reinstalled VP (though I probably did it incorrectly) and I cannot scroll right on the tree. The arrows are jumbled. I'll reinstall it again and ensure that EUI goes in the proper place. Thank you for your assistance in this matter!

@vyyt I reinstalled VP and EUI and this did not solve the issue. My tech tree still looks buggy and the game crashes upon clicking on Compass or Machinery.

Did you delete your cache folder?

 

[worldwarli]

Not to my knowledge

Did you delete your cache folder?

Great! What was it? Cache?

 

[worldwarli]

It was a combination of unchecked mods being activated and a conflict with the map labels mod.

Oh, ok, these are probably not being activated, but they share the same mod IDs and cause conflicts (even when deactivated). Do they use WHoward's Various DLL components btw?

I don't believe so.
