Error on fresh save upload

Bug Reports
1

I’m trying PYDT for the first time with a friend, but I’m having trouble with the initial save upload. We’re trying to play with a vox populi modpack, but from what I’ve read in the forum this shouldn’t cause any trouble. However when I try to upload the file I just get a generic “couldn’t proccess the request” error, and checkign the browser console I see it was a 500 response.

I’m trying to figure out what is happening, but I wanted to confirm first:
On the supported DLC list, does PYDT care about the map packs and “Wonders of the Ancient World” DLC? It is not listed, so I’m unsure if I should have it enabled or disabled. Regardless, I’ve tried both without change on the issue.

Here are the error’s I’m getting:

I don’t think the DLC is the issue, what game is this?

3

My bad, It is Civilization 5 with a Vox Populi modpack, can’t believe I missed that on the post :')

4

I mean like a link to your game on PYDT, or upload the save you’re having problems with?

Here’s the link to the game: VIDEOGAMES | Civilization 5 | Play Your Damn Turn

And here is the save file:

I’m not quite sure what’s happening, the save seems to be on player 6 (an AI), I can’t load it, I’m guessing because I don’t have all the mods set up. Can you try playing another turn and making sure the save is on a human player before uploading it?

7

I’ll give that a try as soon as I can.

EDIT: It is strange thought because I did load/check which turn was happening before upload, but I’ll try that anyway

Did player 2 turn, and then player 1 again, then tried to upload. Same issue.
And from what I can tell, the second player is in fact player 2, or at least the UI seems to indicate that.

I’ll try re-starting the game with defined civs instead of random, maybe that could help?

EDIT: Defining civs didn’t change anything :confused:

The specific modpack we’re using is this one if you want to give a try and see if you can load it properly: 4.19.1_VP-SSEM-EUI.zip - Google Drive

Got it from here: VoxPopuli Modpacks (Update: 4.19.1) | CivFanatics Forums

I’ve passed the savefile directly to my friend and it loads fine, maybe the pydt server is not recognizing the savefile as valid?

Yeah, PYDT can’t figure out the correct current player from the file. I’m not sure why, I’ll have to dig into it and I haven’t looked at the civ 5 parser in years. I’m guessing it has something to do with the mod but I don’t see an easy fix, unfortunately.

No worries, thank you for the support :slight_smile:
