The errors come up because you left <bodyTypeMale> under the BackstoryDef blank. As long as the <maleGenderProbability> is 0, it doesn't matter what you dictate for the male body type in the backstory def, they still won't show up. Lots of other alien races that are female only define the male body type as Female since that's the only body provided and it keeps errors from showing up if someone tweaks the xml to spawn a male. I've spent a lot of time making an alien race and patching alien race mods, so I'm pretty familiar with the ins and outs of these sorts of things. If you need help with anything else, feel free to ask me.

Ive been trying to see if that happens but I cant seem to recreate the issue or even see it in my playthrough hmm maybe you can resubscribe to it and see if that works it shouldnt do that but if it does continue ill see if can change something that can help prevent that from happening

I'm having a problem where they are totally headless. Maybe the same thing? Or some strange interaction between other mods?

is there any other mod that could potentially mess with the heads that you have installed?

I'm unable to start a new game using Amazonians with Ideology enabled. The only way I can start is by selecting "Ideology system inactive". Can start as normal with any other. Here's the error it pops.

I did have a face mod, but I removed it and tried it again and still having the same problem. I have hair mods as well and body mods. Would those interact poorly with it?

This needs an update to 1.4

That's it. No other issue on my end.
