I always forget the worst part of patch days
the seemingly endless game of whack-a-mole as you try to figure out just which mod(s) are preventing you from actually starting a game

For me, it was the alt leader Jimmu of Japan.
Hi, I'm the creator of some of those mods (improved Cyrus and improved Macedon). What errors do you get? When I tested they worked fine for me. My unique improvements mod wasn't working after the patch, but I fixed it and it wasn't causing crashes.
it was saying that the traits weren't found or something along those lines
[544309.116] [Gameplay] ERROR: Invalid Reference on TraitModifiers.TraitType - "TRAIT_LEADER_FALL_BABYLON" does not exist in Traits [544309.116]
this is the only part of the error for the Improved Cyrus and Persia that I can reliably attribute to the issue. the database log is so garbled and poorly formatted that it's virtually unreadable to me. if you would like a copy of the full log I can wipe it and create a new one to give you an idea of the issue. If it works for you and others it is likely compatibility issues with another mod but I have no idea which.
Thank you very much for that. When I get home I'll take a look and reply.
yeah no problem. with all the outdated mods turned off I have the game running so if you need it I can re-enable the mod to generate a new database log if that would help you at all
What I think may have been happening is that I didn't specify in the mod that the DLC needs to be loaded first. I fixed that (also with my Improved Alexander mod and Better Persian and Macedon city names mods) and re-uploaded to Steam. Make sure it updates, then let me know if you get any problems.
I'll just go ahead and name the ones that, for now at least, caused my issues in case someone else needs/wants to know: Historical Religions, Gaul, Illyrians, Boudicca, the Pech, improved civ/city state icons, improved city names, improved Alexander and Macedon, improved Cyrus and Persia.
I have most of those and my game works fine, but the agenda diversity mod doesn't work
those are the ones that were flagged in the database logs as not working
