I keep crashing/DCing

[Aheadatime]

I've been trying to play unmodded multiplayer. From main menu, I just head to MP>Standard>Internet and look for relative lobbies. I've tried joining other people's lobbies and hosting my own. Five times straight now I've had DC errors after hitting Next Turn on turn 0.

The only thing I can imagine that's causing this is having the NQ map installed to my computer. I figured that wouldn't be an issue since I'm not playing Civ5 through the Mods menu. Perhaps just the fact that it's installed (via Control Panel) is an issue?

if u have nq mod/map installed u will crash if u join a game with people who doesnt have it on.
if u wanna remove them open C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization V\Assets
or where ever u installed the game
now open dlc and remove MP_MODSPACK and open maps and remove hb map pack

ps it is an issue even if you are not playing Civ5 through the Mods menu. cause those are multiplayer mods not single player mods

The NQ mod I have installed is the SP version. It's only present in my MODS folder, meaning it should not effect MP gameplay at all. The NQ maps weren't present in any Civ5 folders or directories, as it was hard-installed on the control panel.

I uninstalled the NQ map-pack, found a random map I worked on a while ago in my Civ Maps folder and removed it, and I'm still buggy. If I join someone else's lobby, one of four things happens every time;

1. "Error joining multiplayer session", returned to MP menu
2. "Joining game", never actually joins
3. I get in lobby, game starts. After we all hit "next turn" on turn 0, game freezes completely for me and I have to close civ.
4. Get in lobby, start game. After we all hit next turn on turn 0, game bugs the hell out. People's settlers end up in each other's starting locations, warriors disappearing, random spots on map are revealed, etc. Super buggy and we've had to quit each time this has happened.

If I'm the host, only #3 and #4 occur. I can't imagine what's causing it. I don't live in Antarctica or anything.

Just recorded a quick video of what #4 looks like. The video starts with me (as host) about to start a game. You'll notice at the end of turn 0, Mongolia's settler teleports to my land and the game hard-freezes.

I have this problem too, no idea what's happening.

setler teleporting on turn 0 to turn 1 is not cause by the NQ mod
NQ mod wil crash the game while loading

Setler teleport is caused by some of the versions of the HB Mappack
just remove it from your maps folder and the problem will be gone
