Mods not loading, not even after suggested solutions

[marnicq]

Hi,

So as with tons of people here, it seems mods will not load any more. I had a couple of games more than a week ago which had mods running perfectly. I came back from vacation, and suddenly mods aren't loading in any more.

I tried several things that were suggested on here, none of them worked for me:
1. Restart the game several times until the mods load.
2. Reset the "Load order"of the mods and restart the game.
3. Delete the folder "C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Colossal Order".
4. Uninstall the whole game, delete the folder
"C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Colossal Order" and then reinstall the game.

I can also confirm the mods and the relevant playset are set to "active".
The mods also have been downloaded, as I saw the mods being downloaded one after the other, after deleting the "C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Colossal Order" folder.
Custom maps do load in. Code mods do not load in when entering a game.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. :-)
Thanks.

I have the same problem...it happens completely random..some time MOD appear...more often..they don't

Try these two things:
* Reset load order of the playset, this helps in many cases especially after mod updates
* test with a small playset with only one mod without dependencies (f.e. Move IT), this helps to test general mod loading

I've tried everything I can think of. Last week it worked occasionally, like every time they didn't load, I rebooted the game and it worked. Now it's just refusing to detect any mods at all. I'm tempted to just go back to C:S1, but I don't want to lose all my work on my cities.

Do not use the autoload option of your last save:

1. Start the game normal without loading the last savegame
2. Look at the right side, it shows you that the mods are updated / loading.
3. When this is finished (maybe you have to restart the Game)
4. Load you savefile manually...


Maybe i could help :)

This thread solved it for me. The broken Gooee app leaves a folder behind that needs manually deleting
