When I load up the mod and try to select my custom civ, it gives me an error about not being able to find the texture for the leader icon.
VFS = True is set for all 3 leader icons

I've tried just the base filename(SunAtlas_128.dds) as well as "art/SunAtlas_128.dds", and neither have worked
 
In what format did you export the files? Was it using Photoshop or GIMP or some other program? I know that in GIMP the default dds export options work, but in Photoshop you need to pick DXT3 or DXT5.

Although I don't see why that would cause this error. Only time I've ever seen it is when I don't set to VFS to true... And you said you did that so...
 
Use RGBA8 encoding when exporting the image to .dds

These are the settings that I use when exporting (non-Strategic View) icons
