[2.0.72] Constant crash after updating mods

Post by ZwerOxotnik »

1. I've updated mods and then disabled current ones at once.
2. The game crashed after restart and crashes each time now.

Try restarting your system and if it still crashes try if it launches when disabling all mods, you can disable them by editing the mod-list file.

1. I restarted my system.
2. I disabled all mods in mod-list.json

It didn't help, same issue.

Did you maybe have the base mod already disabled? Try enabling it.

I enabled that in mod-list.json and it didn't help.
I might as well re-download the game later at this point.

I don't know why it is crashing where it crashes, but there is something wrong with the installation on how it loads mods so I'd try to reinstall.

I re-downloaded the game and put it another disk. As soon as I copied all the mods etc., it crashes as before again.

But it launched fine before installing the mods?

Yes, also I installed mods fine, disabling and enabling them.
But as soon as I copied previous mods and player data etc., it crashes again.

Then don't copy the mods over and instead reinstall them.

Is there a way to reinstall them from mod-list.json automatically?

(I could parse json and make a mod temporarily later...)

You can use a save file that has the mods to sync them all.
