That's the correct log file - I'm no expert on log errors but it seems like you have the wrong LSL files loading ...

'Loading Map (2_DD_RT)', which is the game original, instead of 'Loading Map (2_DD_RT_SR1)', which is in the mod.

I'm sure someone can figure out what is going on here. ;)

Thank you for your reply. I've followed all the suggestions from the respondents without success. I've found both maps you cite, but don't know what to do. I'll disable the mod and use what works. Perhaps someone will figure it out.

The log file shows that the mods were not prioritized correctly, this is the issue. Also, all mods listed (6 TG sprite and map mods, plus the terrain mod prioritized last), must be grouped together, with no other mods intermingled.

YES, take a Screen-Shot of how the Mods are organized and post it here.

Thanks for your responses. I don't know how to take a screen shot in Windows 10, but I have the mods arranged in the same order as above. All other Mods have been disabled. I also get a window when I first open a scenario reading "Cannot find package file." It then starts to load, and when I press the Space Bar, the game crashes.
The Work>SowGB Text File looks the same as above.

For SOW screenshots use the F4 key. Screenshots are then found in Work/Screenshots. To post, open the screenshot with a Paint app, then convert it to JPEG (.jpg) for posting.

I hope this worked. I took the screen shot easily. The rest was unknown. At some point, I think I changed the file to screen0001.jpeg. I pasted it in My Pictures and from there copied and posted it as you see below. I suspect one monkey will never punch enough keys.

Well it all looks right to me - I can't figure out what is causing your problems with this.
Unless you are trying to load the wrong scenarios?

They all begin with 'TG' for True Ground.

Yeah, priority order and mods selected should work as advertised.

If this setup still causes crashes or issues double check that all the selected mods are installed correctly. The most common installation error is a double main mod folder caused by the extraction process. Open each mod folder and check that it doesn't have a lone 'same name' folder. If it does copy or cut that 'same name' inner folder, go up one level to the Mods folder and paste it there...Delete or overwrite its original 'same name' folder.

Also, Scroll that page up and make sure that no other mods are selected!

I don't see the Mod that loaded the default Gettysburg map on that page.
