    Here we go again. From CXL Platinum to CXXL and the technical issues still persist.

    Can anyone help me figure out what the problem is this time?

    You will probably get some better answers later, but I would start by re-downloading the ZZZZZZ_CXXL_ENHANCED_MOD from steam. Looks like the file may be corrupted.

    I don't think I ever downloaded such a mod as ZZZZZZ_CXXL_ENHANCED_MOD and I wouldn't know where to find it. I didn't find it anywhere on steam and I even searched for it.

    The game should run without it, it is not a dependency mod, though it seems odd that it is in the log file if never installed. Again, I'm no expert, I've just experienced corrupted file from steam before. I've never had a crash in XXL that wasn't mod related.
    Try here...
    Steam Workshop :: Cities XXL Enhanced Mod
    author: "the doctor is in"
    Current release remembers whether the view options panel was opened or closed and remembers the last location that the views options panel was moved to.

    You might try the "verify integrity of game cache..." option in the XXL/properties/local files panel

    I can't even find that mod in my paks folder.

    Well, still having problems. I tried to resolve the CXXL Enhanced Mod issue by downloading the Community Mod on XXEX, but to no avail. If anyone can take a look at the log and try to help me resolve the issue, it would be appreciated.

    If the problem still involves the CXXL Enhanced Mod (as it seems to), then can someone explain to me how to uninstall and manually reinstall the mod? I tried to go through Steam to do it, but I couldn't figure out how as Steam automatically installs mods for you when you subscribe to them.

    When you subscribe to it, Steam simply places(downloads) a mod automatically when you start the game, to your Paks folder or Mods folder if you have one. You can remove it (delete it or cut/paste it to a different folder) but Steam will just replace it each time you start the game, unless you unsubscribe to it at the workshop.

    Ok, so this time I tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling it, along with all my downloaded content, and still the problem persists. I have no idea what I'm gonna do to resolve the issue. Any ideas?

    So, I did that and still the problem persists:

    Looks like XXL wasn't that much of an improvement from XL after all (as if that wasn't obvious enough). Fuck FHI.

    What moment the game crashes?
    Answers:
    1) In the launch of the game?
    2) By arriving on the planet homepage
    3) In the launch of a city?

    Sometimes the game files get corrupted for various reasons, especially with Steam. It's happened to my game before.
    Try steam log in: Library/Cities XXL (right click): Properties/Local Files/verify integrity of game cache.
    Steam must know it has issues with transferring files or this option would not be there.
    If that doesn't work the last option is to do a clean reinstall of the game. Be sure to backup and remove/delete the mods folder and then delete the:
    c:\Programs\Steam\steamapps\common\Cities XXL folder and the
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XXL folder
    before the new install to remove any corrupted files.

    Thanx for the advice, however, the first tip included in your signature still did not help, so I will have to follow the second.

    Here's my log, yet again:

    It looks a little bit different this time. Any advice?

    Are you sure you have no mod in your file?
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Cities XXL\Paks\mods

    and
    Are you sure of being subscribed to any mod on STEAM?
