bug 0172 tale of dragons

[Pokedigijedi]

ok, ever since I got that new dlc I've been getting this bug everytime I want to play single player mode and now the campaign mode won't work, I only got to play it once when it worked properly but after that one time no dice, I keep getting this stupid error message in single player and as previously stated it won't let me play it now not even when I have no chinese characters in single player mode!

so what gives?!? when are you guys going to patch this and how do I fix it because I have already tried uninstalling then reinstalling my game but it still won't work

i have the same problem, as soon as it downloaded it crashes saying error villager chinese is not a valid operator

I have also had this issue. None of the usual fixes seem to work. I had a long and successful play session when I first installed the DLC, and now upon loading any map on any faction, every unit dies and building is destroyed, but the game does not end.

Is this follow at the end by cUnitTypeVillagerChinese is not a valid operation? If so im having same issue. I have reinstalled, Validated files, checked the 2015 redistributables and uninstalled all mods. This affects not just Random Map but also affects LAN with the same problem happening.

Correct me if im wrong

When a map is started Error 0172 cUnitTypeVillagerChinese is not a valid operation shows with a bunch of random ♥♥♥♥ previously giving file location and all the buildings are instantly destroyed and everything dies.

me too.
Every skirmish game starts with: 0172 cUnitTypeVillagerChinese is not a valid operation..
I dont even have the dlc. just the extended version from the last sale . It worked in skirmish until i started the poseidon campain. Weird

HOLY MOTHER ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥, ITS WORKING NOW

THANKS MAN I DELETED THE "mods" FOLDER IN MY DIRECTORY AND
NOW WORKS, I CAN FINALLY CREATE MY OWN SCENERIOS ♥♥♥♥ YES!!!

just something to remember: I left the "Unlock Camera" folder untouched and
deleted other mod folders, seems like camera mod doesnt do anything to game

Thanks mate

I have not even tried the campaign and as soon as I bought Tale of the dragon BAM, I get this and every faction loses their town center upon game start.....10 bux out the window I guess

ok problem solved, I wound up having to completely remove all the Age of Mythology mods from my computer in order to get it to work, unfortunately

What folders or files should I delete and where might they be? I am an old man and this is mostly over my head but I can do it with decent instructions,

Thanks,
