Modlist Bug that Prevents Multiplayer

  • Game Version:v.100.17.43876.0

  • Build Number:502628R

  • Platform: Steam

  • Operating System: Windows 10 home, 64bit

Issue:

I have no idea how to link screenshots here.

When I try to play multiplayer, I get an error message saying I have data mods enabled. I did not install any mods, I scouted forums and found out this is a file error occurred during the game’s instalation. It may have something to do with the fact that my install path is on partition D, not C.

I linked a discussion that describes my problem. I followed the advice given and then ended up with the same new issue as what the last commenter described:

"When I create a folder under C:/Users/My User/Games/Age of Mythology Retold, the game stops starting for me with “Initialization Failed Can’t create log file”.

When I delete the folder, it starts again with the Mods Enabled issue. Any idea? Also I did not have a Games folder there before, just a SavedGames folder."

Also, AI narration always turns on and I need to accept EULA every time I open the game. I feel like that’s unnecessary and annoying. I can’t write save files either, which is upsetting.

I have these exact issues on top of a few others. I havent been able to playu multiplayer at all
