Anyone had error on 14085 (latest Ptach) Key events Wrong data type?

[Cibaris]

(string expected) Game validated, ity loads then runs for about 2 minutes then get this error.

[Thork]

That was it...
I guess the rules on what files are used (or probably rather priorization in incremental files) changed and some of the old, probably unnecessary config files are now conflicting.
Instead of updating your trains, you can just delete this mod subdirectory:

\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\796083159\res\config\sound_set\old

Works flawless afterwards so far, even though I'm not sure if those files were supposed to do anything. Some audio sounds rather strange...
I will also post the solution on the mods workshop page, but the author seems inactive.
If you want to keep the (altered) mod and don't want steam to mess with it, better move it to the manual mod subdirectory inside the main TpF directory.

There are probably other mods with old, conflicting files, but those should most likely not be included and there probably was a reason for that change in the patch.

The issue is now fixed! Thank you so much!

lorcan I posted above re ETR1000. Do you have the mod RUNNING? It wont give a wrong data error if the mod is in game and installed but not running physically. Odd one but I have passed onto Tom at UG

I do have the ETR1000 mod running but i cant delete because I cant get onto the load page.

[Cibaris]

Hi Thork. OP here. Thanks for your investigations. Oddly I transposed the sound from this mod to another and works in 14085 fine. However I did not copy over the old files. It works flawlessly. I am going to see if I can recover my saved game pre 14085 in the meantime. I will then attempt to rebuld that mod again.

Hi. I am in the same boat and as the OP. I will atempt to resolve the issue and get back. However, the mod shouldnt stop you loading the menu etc.

When i click the load game button. I get a page of lua errors that is too long so i cant close it. this only happened after i verified the game files.

@Erik and lorcan:
Glad I could help. I somewhat enjoy the "puzzle solving" ;)
Just hope that other players with this problem will manage to find the solution in this mess of posts I created.

@lorcan:
Maybe ETR 1000 is part of it, but your problem seems to be different.
If it was only ETR 1000, you would not even need to load into the game.

Instead, you could just delete this mod subdirectory:

\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\796083159\res\config\sound_set\old

However, Steam might restore the mod/error if you don't afterwards move that "796083159" directory into:

\Steam\steamapps\common\Transport Fever\mods

As said, your problem seems to be more complex and you should probably post a screenshot of that long error message and/or the contents of stderr.txt and stdout.txt in:

\Steam\userdata\<your_steam_id>\446800\local\crash_dump

Ouch...
Mod 794729114 is Gwinda's map mod... seems highly doubtful there'd be a bug with that. What on earth could be causing this?

Perhaps try unsubscribing Gwinda's map mod, delete the 794729114 folder from /Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/446800/ , and then re-subscribe to download a fresh copy?

[Thork]

^beat me in time ;)
Yes, rather strange error when most of these "missing" files should not even be there.
Wonder if all the rest of these errors follow-up the first, but I can't figure out much ofGwindas lua.
Did you by any chance change files/settings of the map mod (794729114) or used TFGM to do it?

In general, as grimdanfango said, you could manually delete the directory:

\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\794729114

or even all directories in:

\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800

and revalidate your game files.
That should not only force base-game files to be correct but also force mods to redowload.
No need to un/resubscribe.
Be aware that this might take a while depending on the number of mods redownloading.

I did that and now it only comes up with error in file C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/446800/906635889/mod.lua: cannot open C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/446800/906635889/mod.lua: No such file or directory

[Thork]

That file should indeed be there..
Just do the same for that directory. Delete and revalidate.

edit:
That mod does however not seem to be on the workshop at this time... Could be a problem if you use it in a save. You might find it on some other site if you can identify it.
