Bug with mods and team selection screen

A strange bug occurred only recently when launching ME:A with FMM (version 1.0.4.2) and mods. When I try to open the team selection screen, current team members take forever to show up, badges don't show up at all and I can't select any new member. I tried to selectively disable every single mod, but to no avail. Launching ME:A alone or from FMM with no mods enabled doesn't show this bug.

 

Here are all the mods I use:

It's caused by a modified portrait texture in one of the mods (peebee armor) in versions above 1.08. You have to load the game without mods, choose a team member then save, exit and load your mods.

So, go with the pain-in-the-ass solution:

1) Save game before a mission and exit

2) Relaunch it without mods and wait for the main menu

3) Continue game

4) Select squad member and begin mission

5) Save game and exit

6) Relaunch with mods and wait for the main menu

7) Continue game

8 ) Repeat from step 1 for next mission

...

Are you serious?

 

So, I have to explain again:

a) The modded game, with ALL these mods enabled, worked until a few weeks ago - and it already was version 1.10.

b) I already spent a great amount of time selectively disabling EVERY SINGLE MOD to find the culprit, to no avail.

c) Thinking that the game may have got corrupt, I tried to repair it; nothing changed.

 

I don't remember when I switched to FMM version 1.0.4.2; I'll try to revert to a previous version and see if this gets things fixed; the pain-in-the-ass solution above is NOT an option.

@sbradabang; No need to belittle a suggestion from someone just trying to help you.

 

As with a mod that's not to your taste... "Don't like it? Don't use it, but pass in silence."

Sorry, I did't want to be rude. This wasn't helping, though: if I had to lose half an hour every time I have to select my team, I'd rather not play the game until they fix this bug with FMM 1.0.4.2.

For the record, I reverted to FMM 1.0.3.1 and this problem disappeared (though this version has other bugs :mad: - well, let's have patience...)

Anyway, I did not say anything about mods I don't like, unless you are referring to mods I have disabled in my list: they conflict with other mods that alter the same things, and I choose them depending on my mood.

Didn't say anything about your using mods (or not.)

Made an analogy to the situation of a player not liking a particular mod.

 

But glad you seem to have got things sorted by reverting to the previous FMM version.

a) Sorry; I misunderstood this. I'm quite proficient in English, but it's not my mother language, and sometimes I translate it the wrong way.

 

b) Well, about FMM, this is only a workaround. I hope GalaxyEham will fix this with the next release.

This, and This, even though going to 1.0.3 will break a lot of other mods, If the modder was nice enough to share their fbproject, Just go to Game/UI/Loadout/Squadimages/ Right click, and revert.
