World won't generate -or- one faction loads

[Lostlove]

With mods installed I either cannot generate the world at all. I can get to the screen to generate, it will load like it will then pop back to the generate screen. If I go and edit the mods out I *think* it causing this, then I can load world. However, only one faction will pop up (with one out post). If I select an area I go to the ideology screen to create like normal. However, once I get to the screen where I click "next" to create the people, it won't go.

I remember this happening a few years but was not sure how it was fixed. I think it would have to be patched on their end but was not sure if anyone else was reporting this.

Everything worked fine when I played it when it first came out for a few hours. I have a saved game but I cannot play that anymore as when I load into it there is no HUD, characters are invisible and I can't do anything.

Unfortunately, no one is going to be able to troubleshoot your personal mod list for you; you'll have to do the leg work to identify which one it is yourself.

Turn off all mods and test if it works. If it does, slowly add mods in groups of 1-5 with a test in between. Save mods that are not marked as explicitly 1.4-compatible for last. When the issue reappears, test enabling the mods in the given group 1 at a time.

Once you find the mod causing the issue, make a comment on that mod's page detailing the errors you're seeing.

Its humanoid alien races mod most likely, disable it, also verifing game files May rarely help you with that particular issue

As mentioned, you're the best person to troubleshoot your own personal modlist. (Not even gonna ask which mods you're using.)

However, I would take a slightly different approach to testing - First test the base game. Then test with framework mods like Harmony, HugsLib, Humanoid Alien Races, Vanilla Expanded Framework - that sort of thing.
Then add half your modlist, and Auto-Sort it.
If it works, add half of what remains.
If it doesn't work, instead remove half of what you just added.
Once you've got *that* stable, add half of what remains. Repeat as necessary.

If it's an individual mod breaking things, this may let you troubleshoot a large modlist without doing in in 20+ loads.
If it's two mods conflicting with one another, hopefully that should identify at least one culprit.

Removed Humanoid Alien Races fixed for me.

Like above
Combat extended as well will need to be updated and many more(Threw over 300 errors in my log)
Gun nut expanded's as well, or for me at least can't even enable
Certain vanilla expanded(partially)
Wait for them to be updated or remove in meantime, or rollback in meantime!


annnnd from others: remove all custom scenarios and or custom ideals I think they said, can't remember but it is from a recent discussion (one regarding being unable to finish making new game)
