[BTS] Caveman2cosmos Problems with displaying some interface elements

[svartar]

Hi everyone,

It's my first post, and my english is poor, so I please be understanding.
I have hope, that it's correct department and I'm not duplicate topic.

I have installed C2C in several versions (38.1, 40, 41 and 41.2)

In each of these versions, I have a problem displaying some parts of the interface.

Exactly, for example, the icons at the bottom of the menu during the game (red marked) are invisible.

Also, I can't launch the tech tree, when I press the button, nothing happens (red marked).

I think both problems (and other similar) have the same couse.

Do you know how to solve these problems?

I would be very grateful for your help

Game was installed on PC with Windows 10.

@svartar this mod is extremely picky:
1. Never install it in My Documents
2. It must be named exactly Caveman2Cosmos
3. Run game as admin - somehow game has extreme trouble making files or folders when installed on system drive

If using steam version, switch to beta.

1. C:\Program Files (x86)\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization IV Complete\Beyond the Sword
2. I changed name to "Caveman2Cosmos
3. I ran the file as administrator

These steps resolved problem with the bottom icons but, tech tree still doesn't work. Now, I can open it, but I can't see tree tech.

Looks like you overwrote old version of mod with new one.
Delete mod and install latest version.

I had several versions installed, each one was in a folder named: "Caveman2CosmosV38", "Caveman2CosmosV40" etc.
Now I just changed the folder name of the latest version to "Caveman2Cosmos" I didn't make any changes to the files. So I can reinstall, but I think that it will change nothing.
Thank You for help

Delete User Settings folder then, so it recreates fresh.

If you overwrote an old mod folder with the new one, you corrupted the whole folder. Delete them all and move the new version folder into the mods folder and make sure it is then named Caveman2Cosmos and it should run fine.

I did what you advised and in fact, everything is already working. Thank you very much
