Summary​

Can not open the game

Steps to reproduce​

I open the game, pres play, it is loadind until at one point the ultimate error pops up and I can not open it. Only way to open the game is to open it without mods, but in without mods this game is loosing like 60 % of my interest in it.

Expected Result​

I had several mods with similar error popups, but typically I could just press x and close the errors and open the game. After laitest update it is no longer possible to open the game with mods, even if all of the mods are unlinstalled.

Actual Result​

ultimate error (or somethin like that) thats how its called

Game Version​

1.3.3f1

What mods do you have installed?​

I have several mods, however it dosent matter. As I already said even with uninstaling all of the mods and restarting computer, the error still appears.

Affected Feature​

  • User Experience

Platform​

  • Steam

First, let's eliminate mods, as until they are updated by their authors they can cause problems after any new game patch. Please add --disableModding to the game's Steam launch options. Then start a new test city - do you still get these crashes then?





If so, please try this: Rename the "Cities Skylines II" folder in your C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\LocalLow\Colossal Order (to whatever you want) and then start the game. To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.





The game will create a new clean CS2 folder and if that works it means that something in your original folder is corrupt and preventing the game from starting. Do NOT delete your original folder though as your saves are stored there and if you want to keep playing you'll need to move them over to the new fresh folder!





Let us know if that helps you. Good luck!
