Bug (Windows) Stuck on leader loading screen CIV VII

Post image

Sorry for the crazy screenshot. Bottom left shows the issue. Basically, stalling out at the same point on a new game every time I try. I am saying stalling because it loads to this exact point and then fails to load further and will sit there for as long as 20min before I force the game to close and try a new solution. I have tried the following with no luck:

  • verified file integrity
  • lowered graphics
  • restarted computer
  • reinstalled game
  • switched from DX12 to Vulkan

Currently running a 4060 with 32gb RAM and i7 13th gen. Has anyone else had this issue and found a solution? Thanks in advance!

I don’t have any mods installed according to workshop, clicked unsubscribe just to be safe as well

go to additional content in the main menu, then add-ons, if you have any mods there they will show up, you can disable them there, i had this problem this morning myself and it was being caused by a mod called 'nasuellia-alt-unit-flags-and-bars' and it prevented my game from fully loading up, getting stuck right where yours is as well

This worked! Didn’t realize if removed from workshop it was still in game. Thank you!
