Follow these steps if you cannot see the in game menu or use controls in game.


This can happen some times with mods that are marked as "not affecting save games". What that means is the mod can be loaded with your saved games since it doesn't change anything in the database. However, there seems to a bug where the game doesn't load these types of mods sometimes. The solution I have found is:


1. Starting a new game with all the mods you want enabled (or working with a game you've already started and saved), and save that game.

2. Once that game is saved, go into Additional Content and disable all community mods.

3. Enable the mods you have that are marked as not affecting saved games (such as this mod or the Free Camera or Automated Builders + Archaeologists mods). Game saves that were already started with mods marked as affecting saved games will automatically load that mod, even if they are disabled in Additional Content.

4. Now try to load your saved game.
