[R&F] GameInfo vs. Gameinfo

UncivilizedGuy · Feb 11, 2018

After R&F was released some of my mods didn't work for one simple reason. The database entry tags in my xml files were written as "Gameinfo". The "I" was not in caps. This didn't matter before the expansion was released but now it's necessary that it's typed as "GameInfo".

Thought I'd share this just in case anyone gets this message in the database log:

Spoiler database.log :

I had this message too but I can find where are the wrong entry tags.
Do you remember where exactely it was?

For me, no information in the logs:

What the log is telling you is that GameData, GameInfo and Database have to be typed exactly as you see it here. The words are case sensitive.

I understood that, but i can't find where is the typo error.
There are not many entry tags in a mod and the few that are in are written correctly ....

You could also be missing a tag. I do that all the time. What I would do is do a “Find” in each file and type in the entry tags how they are supposed to be and see if something gets skipped.

Another modder told me that it is another base game error .Indeed it happened without mods enabled

Interesting. My logs aren’t showing any errors.
