No mods installed but the game still says it's modded - Archaon is not spawning!
Hi everyone,

I have looked through the forums a number of times and tried to find an answer to this but ive come up blank so I hope the modding community can guide me.

I am playing the standard campaign as the high elves and i have got to turn 300+. I have completed all the achievement goals for the long campaign apart from beating the chaos hoard because... they have not spawned.

I heard that sometimes mods can break the campaign so I checked the mod manager and I do not have any listed... I dont remember if I ever did install mods as its an old game i fancied redoing but the load screen shows:

"v1.12.1 build 20236.2625145 (modded)"

I have deleted and re-installed and I just cant get rid of it and I dont want to give up on the campaign after going this far...

Can anyone help to suggest how I clean this up or is there a mod to force Archeon to come out and play???

thanks

I think it always says modded now since the switch from Steam to Epic online services.
Look at the bottom left corner. If there's a white pixel then it's really modded.

Hi There,

is the white pixel on the main game screen or once I go into the campaign?

thanks

Not sure if it's in both, but just load the save and check it.

The version always says (modded), that doesn't mean it's really modded.

If it really is modded, there is a white dot in the bottom left corner, like in this image

interesting - thanks Everyone. I think the fundamental issue is I didn't realise that the upgrade to v1.12 broke the game for previous saves and as I have continued to play I cant go back to the Beta previous version as it does not recognise the save games...

Sounds like I am screwed unless there is a way to edit the savegame in a text editor or something to reset it to the previous build version so that the beta is able to recognising it and i can then see the chaos invation trigger.

anyone think this is possible or know of a way to do it?

thanks again
