  • @mktheenby I have also had the issue of greyed out text boxes.
    For mods, I have the More Columns mod and a few trait mods, but I don't have the UI Cheats mod. More Columns didn't conflict, and it didn't seem like the traits were as well.
  • So whenever i make a new game and after selecting the weather i am shown this screen.. 

    nothign works.  its just stuck there. and no matter what i do it doesnt work. 

    tried to make a new game. tried to repair the game. 

    Nothing.

    Since you've already determined that your issue is caused by mods, you are going to have to test to figure out which mod is causing the problem.  It could be more than one so everything needs to be tested individually until you find the broken mod.  Once you do, you'll have to update or remove it.  

    Do you really have 470 mods, or do you have a few mods and most of what you have in your mods folder is CC?  I have over 2,700 files in my mods folder but only 13 are mods, the rest is CC. I keep everything in subfolders so I can find things quickly when I need to.  CC rarely causes this kind of problem so if you organize things to separate your mods and CC, you'll find the broken items faster.  It's worth taking the time to organize things then it takes a lot less time to troubleshoot your game when things like this happen.

    Hope this helps.

  • I had this too, exactly the same as you showed on the picture!

    I also have a lot of mods, but I took the time to painstakingly go through all of them and figure out what the problem was. For me, it was thepancake1's Color Slider Mod (the version compatible with the More Columns Mod). Just in case it might be the same thing causing this for you!
