Can't get Long War of the Chosen to Launch
I've subscribed to the LWOTC and it's companion mods, double checked that they're turned on in the launcher. When I launch the game it immediately freezes. Can't seem to get it to work at all. I do not have any other mods installed or enabled. What am I doing wrong?

I tried uninstalling Alien Hunters, subscribing to alien hunters community highlander, turned off frame smoothing in the base game to sure. Everything I found online seemed to be geared toward Github and not intallsing and playing via steam.

Thanks for your help!

Ever figure it out? I think we may have the same issue

I don't succeed to launch either. Ir makes a "Error on launching LW_Overhaul" crash.
As I think LW Overhaul is the "simple" LW2, I unsubscribed and deleted it manually from mod files.
And it still crash for the same reason when I try to launch LWOTC.

I was able to get it to work. For me my graphics driver was corrupted somehow so I reinstalled it then did a fresh install of XCOM and the mods.

Install alternative mod launcher, aka aml https://youtu.be/zk8XGppXslw

Subscribe to LWotC, and all required, along with recommended mods.

Make sure to avoid installing mods that conflict with LWotC so start with only the mods needed and recommended for the mod to run before expanding the mod list.

Delete all the files in Documents\My Games\XCOM2 War of the Chosen\XComGame\Config (don't worry, these will be regenerated when you start the game).

Run the game through aml, make sure you install aml properly, and link to the proper mods folder in WotC.
