Project Properties?

[daviiadams]

I don't seem to be able to open Project Properties, via the Project menu, for anything (the only time I've seen it of late, was when creating a new empty mod) - is this the case for everyone?

Is there a keyboard shortcut, or alternative way to open it?

You're not seeing it on right-mouse button menu?

Not for Project Properties, no. I've got "Properties" docked bottom right, as you would when selecting a file and changing VFS say, but nothing for the Project.

Did you double click the solution file, or open ModBuddy and then explicitly open the .civ5sln file? If the former (which has never worked consistently on my laptop) try the latter method to open the mod

I've only ever opened them from within ModBuddy, often from the list on the left when it first opens, then via the File menu later if I change which one I'm working on.

What I did notice at one point, post updates ahead of BNW, was that old titles for some of the mods were coming up - it wasn't until I rebuilt them, that they went back to normal. All the detail in the files, their folders etc, were fine. At that point though, there was also a Steam update every 2 secs...

Just in case anyone else has this issue, I've accidentally stumbled on a workaround; Unloading the project, then right-clicking the proj file and editing the contents (which appear to be xml?) then reloading and rebuilding the project.

Apologies if this is all well known info, but thought it worth mentioning considering I'd guessed it to be an unusual error
