[Solved] Unhandled Error - "MISSING LOCALIZATION"

[CannonFodder100]

Upon updating from a very early version (cannot remember the specific version), I began receiving a nasty error - here are the steps.

1.) Start the game, obviously.
2.) Enter game lobby.
3.) Enter "Game Options" tab on the game settings taskbar near the bottom.
This is where the game derails - under the AI Modifiers dropdown I get a nasty "MISSING LOCALIZATI" (the last couple letters are cut off), and after about a half second I get that oh-so-wonderful "An Unhandled Exception has Occurred" popup. It displays the following:

An Unhandled Exception Has Occurred:System.Exception
Details available in UnhandledErrors.txt in the folder:
...\Arcen Games, LLC\AI War\
The game will now close.

There is a large amount of data in the aforementioned file, but here is the data relevant to the crash:

-----------------------------------Application_ThreadException-----------------------------------System.Exception: LobbyAIModifier value MISSING LOCALIZATION:NoneMod not implemented.

Sorry for the massive post.

Did you install all the updates? Updating from, say, 1.013 to 2.0 will not work. You must upgrade from (if I recall correctly) 1.013 -> 1.201 -> 1.301 -> 2.0

I recommend downloading the 2.0 version and completely reinstalling.

You can also just unzip this directly on top of your installation, if you prefer:  http://www.arcengames.com/share/AIWar1000To2000.zip

Hope that helps!

I thought all updates were cumulative, so you could stick 2.0 over 1.001, if you wanted.

This problem is likely caused by an issue with the MSI patcher that the game uses, where it doesn't copy over localization files properly. This is usually the case with users who have been using prereleases. Unzipping the 1.000->2.000 zip file that x4000 linked to into your AI War folder should fix it. Sorry for the inconvenience!
