    A strange thing started happening all of a sudden.
    Some mods, when I click on their image, in the menu, to select it in order to place them.. the game kinda freezes. Music goes on.. can move the blue in game mouse.. but the screen is stuck and I can't do anything except force quit xD.
    In this case, the particular mod was the Louvre's pyramid (which before.. it worked fine). There are a few more mods that freeze up the game but I can't remember their names right now (but I'll post them if necessary).
    So it's not a crash but a freeze.. anyone experiencing or have experienced this before?

    Thank you for any thought on this.

    Try "re-clicking" the same building menu icon a second time. This should un-freeze the screen.
    Then, adjust/change your view perspective just a little and try placeing the building again.
    Same thing can happen with buildings, roads, terra forming, and bulldozing in XXL too, as well as in XL.

    Thank you for your suggestion. I've just tried it but it doesn't unfreeze. It just keeps frozen with the background music playing.

    Had a similar problem.
    Mine was caused by scrolling or zooming the view while trying to place.
    Now I adjust the view before selecting the object to place.

    Yeah. I tried adjusting the view before selecting.. tried close up and zoomed out.. and clicking on the mod it just freezes. I'm gonna put the log here. Maybe some1 with time to kill xD.. and that understands those logs can see any issue related to this problem.
    I have that same mod already placed in my city.. and worked fine and I can even click on the placed mod. But when I click on its menu icon.. stuck xD

    @amecurty , I did not understand the log. But I experience also the same freeze when I clicked Louvre's pyramid. For me, this is because of the Vampiro's Collision Box Tolerance. Check this post for the workaround.

    Not only Louvres' pyramid have that conflict with CBT, also the Euromall, Air force pack, Vladimir of Kiev, Sailboat, some buildings in modular nuclear plant & Beach to City.
