Confirmed.
Mods and system are being updated.
Wonderful!

Meanwhile, this process below has worked for 19 of us - if you cannot wait for full updates.
Let the program do it for you.
Far less time wasted.

1. Go to Workshop.
2. Delete ALL subscribed items. All.
(Do not worry, old saved game remembers all your data.)
3. Add only updated mods from

MaxFX's and Snowflitzer's list.
Just delete the ones you do not want.

See also-
CO_Avanya's list. Game Not Working -
Read This > List of Working / Broken Mods.
With this - go line by line, slowly. Read the correct wording of the mods listed.

4. Log off entirely game and site entirely. Then. log back back in.
5. Go to game. Green Play button> Content Manager> Saved Game
6. Choose old saved game (saved before update).
7. Click left on button, then Subscribe All (also loads all newest updated mods completed so far that you subscribed to). Also shows missing files that will not be loaded.
8. Long wait to load, but well worth it- it loads all your buildings, mods. If bar stops midway, click off game, then go back
and do #7 above a couple times. Wait a bit.
Then -
9. Activate all.

It's All About The Mods >
Picking up a second nature and knowing what mods work for you, what to toss
is the climate of this program. You must pick up this crucial behavior
(soon program will do it further for you and even further - fully broken or outdated mods will be removed from website, updated and new mods on the website).

10. BEFORE loading game, check your mod list in the game, delete ones that are not current (above lists). Make sure all are activated.
11. Also ck your website mods list- delete any mods that look duplicate, not on combined lists above. Better to delete a non updated/non working loved mod, than to not have your game work at all. Trust your gut. Let it go. Check back later for newer ones. Delete ALL Camera-Zoom-Drive-Walk mods for the moment (two good ones to use once up are Totally Free Camera, Enhanced Zoom Continued).

12. You will also see your buildings/props listed as well.
Back to Game.
13. Load the saved game.
14. Wait, keep waiting. It will come up.

Presto.
It will not have everything back, but at least 90% of your saved work.
Also, a somewhat more renewed game.
Save it as a new game name.
Keep the old game file.

Missing file list (Loading Screen Mod Revisited 0.7) is your flag to go to website and click on/activate a building, prop, if you still want it. List happens from example - a building you selected that needs a separate prop or additional building, etc.
If you want to know what, where these items are or these error threads gone,
go to You Tube> type in> Cities Skylines Missing Assets> sockswayup video.

Tuning your mod selected customized game -
Error reports at opening of the game tell you what to keep, delete or what is not working in conjunction with what you have chosen. Follow these reports to delete, add, etc. until the reports are all fully gone.
You will end up with a game where you may of had to sacrifice a few mods, but made to as close as possible to your specs as the mod combination chef system will produce for your fully functioning game.

Also, do above again in 2 weeks from now for even better update.
Use the old game file saved.

I think I will be buying a few of the newest DLCs.
Happens again, heck, correct, path above.

Let the system work for YOU!


________________________________________________________
System* -
You can always reinstall the game and DLCs is always under your account.
Mods, buildings, props, maps will always be on the website.

Your Most Important Files -
It is your saved game file and .crp files you made (custom work)-
it remembers everything you worked so hard to do.
You will always have it.

1. Go to your hard drive.
2. Find Colossal Order file> Cities_Skylines> Saves> your city’s .crp files.
3. Save a copy to a another drive or folder off the program.

Custom Work -
1. Colossal Order file> Cities_Skylines> Add ons> Assets> .crp files.
2. Save a copy to a another drive or folder off the program.

No matter what happens -
reinstall game, messed up work, bad drive?
Always just copy the .crp files back to the correct folders (above).
You will never lose a thing... ever again.

Your final Mod Combination List -
Always keep the final (nothing is ever final with mods) mod combo list that all worked together.
Slowly adding a mod later to the batch (to the 39 that all worked together) will tell you
it is that one mod starting to cause a issue to your main batch.
Note that one mod. Toss it.
(Yes, that one mod may work with a different batch).
Check back later to see if that one mod you were trying was updated and try it again.
It may then work with your existing batch.
No more questioning mods web listings.
Issue controlled. Never again.


* Game is built for speed, gbs, higher page file,
high quality graphics video cards.
Whatever you think you can slam at it, it can do (see Chicago city video).
With bigger, complex projects and more assets, try to get your hands on
Alienware, Omen, Digital Storm, MSI, Corsair, etc.
Go higher, if possible - I9, 64gb, high graphics video cards.
Waiting time vanishes.
Results will blow your mind.

Tip for mega builders -
Once clear and in, keep game on freeze (lower left game hold).
Start building with a good endless cash mod activated,
using all your building mod features to max on a game operation result.
On hold, save your projects as you go.
Then, unfreeze.
> THEN deal with the post detailing/in game icon corrections of your project.
Result?
A much faster built perfected project.
And fully operating to your specs.

Here we go!!
Thanks for the heads up AND the anticipated encouragement. I am going to start over again and I have no problem with that(got time and it's go time). So with nothing on board, nothing saved, I will start with mods listed by Snowflitzer and MaxFX(BTW, I have a few more than a handful of those listed). This is going to be interesting, but I do wonder, am I going about this ok? Is starting over completely something I will or may regret?

Thanks

[peterslee9]

You will not regret it at all.
But do read the lists and procedures above slowly.
Read the tagged urgent memos at top of the discussion board as well.
They are there for a reason, for you.

By doing this, and getting a feel for all the back and forth comments,
you are also starting to fully understand your game.

Game seems plug and play, but it is not.
It is a high tech programmed game.
Highest ever produced.
Far better than Sim4 or any city modding game ever made.

The most tech, extreme visual results, city modding game on earth.

Always do what works best for you, but you're going at it the long way around.

If you maintain a clean mod list and haven't purchased the DLC, everything that worked prior to the update will work after the update. You don't have to delete anything.

Just update (replace) the mods on your list that got broken by the steam update or indicate that they are now compatible with the latest steam update and run both the "subscribe to all" and the "enable all" options on any saved games you want to load.

Bingo Said and Done.

[peterslee9]

Assumption and Notion

“I did enable all months ago. I forgot that I unchecked that building 12 days ago I was looking for in my assets, assuming it would show up in my Find It. I can’t find it, cannot remember that darn name it was given. Even if I did uncheck it without realizing, I notion it still would be in my game." It’s not.
“That mod that worked in June is now iffy acting." It’s old and not updated.
"I will just then click Subscribe All/Enable All."

Subscribe All, then Enable All, brings in all current files for your saved game, never old
dead junk from the saved game.
A better state for your game.

The mod you may of thought would be there to just go get to then update in Subscribe All/Enable All could now be gone. Or changed and newer one done by a modder also now may have a way different name and listing appearance you would of never known of or thought it was, and one you never subscribed to yet from the website.

I assumed PP was the trigger to all this mess. I did not even buy the DLC yet. It was not, by itself. A DLC or mod is a attachment to a main program. It is all - the system, DLCs, mods, website, etc. that are being updated.
All good programs have updates.

I am prepared for the system updates and mod adjustments.
Cities Skylines users are of the best in games, going even further and beyond than all gaming products. Much further. Anyone who can convert a Nordstrom logo .jpg>.obj>.crp and precisely install it on a existing building or, even better, create a new building that beats Busan or Harrods with dazzling results has more going for them than you think.
You are prepared for the system updates and mod adjustments.

If you have been involved in CS game build/play for years, I do recommend becoming a computer programmer. Many here already have it in them. You are needed. Yes, it can be a frustrating, long hours creative career. I just got over the stress and solved the issue.
Of the best paying fields and you are making people’s lives a little bit easier.

Snowflitzer- Anytime! You and MaxFX rock!

Thank you peterslee9

First time through is a puzzle, sad to say. After rebooting and subscribing to all mods I got an error and all but 42 mods were allowed.

The error :

Game Anarchy
!Warning

Game Anarchy detected incompatible mods, please unsubscribe from the following incompatible mods.

[Unlock All + Wonders & Landmarks] - Game Anarchy already includes the same functionality.
[Sort Mod Settings] - Game Anarchy already includes the same functionality.
[Achieve It!] - Game Anarchy already includes the same functionality.
[Skip Intro] - Game Anarchy already includes the same functionality.
-------
It looks like Game Anarchy can be deleted unless I am mistaken.
I can get screenshots of the un-activated mods if you like.
FYI: I had no mods or assets in content manager when I subscribed to everything provided above.

[peterslee9]

You are in. Great!

System did a full 42 post mod edit also.

Leave Game Anarchy.
Delete - Unlock All+ W & L, Sort Mod Setting, Achieve It, Skip Intro.
Restart game.

If you get a Move it warning box, add Move it.
Exactly- Warning box tells you what is in the way, what is needed.
Tuning your game.
> Run the game.

>FYI: I had no mods or assets in content manager when I subscribed to everything provided above.<
They are there.
Subscribe All> Enable All.

Yes, some things are missing, but you are in.
Add the few missing props, etc. items later.
Add more updated mods later.

There you are.

Taking girlfriend to Starbucks.
Enjoy.

This screenshot is from the Asset Editor but this also happens when I am ingame. Once I started playing, everything was so dark (just like that screenshot). Why is this happening and how do I get it back to a good old playing field?

[bsbrdv]

The game does have an interesting appearance but I would like to play with unlimited money. I don't find that option anywhere anymore. How do I turn that back on?

Know that each map-theme has it's own graphics settings. You can use 'Theme Mixer 2' to change some of these settings.

I also see you're using 'Render It!'. That mod offers lots of graphics settings. Looks like you need to work it out to make it more lighter.

I'm currently messing around with Render it as well....

[bsbrdv]

ok, thanks. Its a mod I wasn't using before. It came from either you or Snowflitzer I think(from the mods listed anyway). I hope I can find that Unlimited money
