Hall of Fame crashes on startup - toverux/HallOfFame GitHub Wiki

A few users might encounter a crash on startup when using Hall of Fame.

This is not due to the mod itself, but rather the pressure put on the game's UI engine on startup when a lot of mods initialize at the same time and Hall of Fame attempts to patch the menu UI.

Those are confirmed bugs of Coherent Gameface — although progress have been made since the game's release, there are still issues on some machines, while most users are not affected at all.
Moreover, as the mod author, I am unable to reproduce the issue on three vastly different machines, so it is hard for me to find potential ways to fix the issue (help appreciated).

If you have this issue, you can mitigate it by disabling the Main menu integration in the mod settings (alleviating the pressure on startup) but still load it on-demand by pressing the H key while on the main menu, when the game is in a more stable state.

If you’re stuck in the situation where you can’t access the mod options because the game crashes, you can set this option manually in the mod's settings file:

Open the file %localappdata%low\Colossal Order\Cities Skylines II\ModsSettings\HallOfFame\HallOfFame.coc in a text editor (like Windows' notepad).
Create it if it does not exist.

Add this line in green (without the plus sign):

HallOfFame
{
    "CreatorID": "xxxxx",
+   "EnableMainMenuSlideshow": false
}

Ensure that the last configuration key does not have a trailing comma.

Now, when you start the game, Hall of Fame won't load its main menu integration, but you can still load it using the H key!
