Crash to desktop, with no warning, after completing Operation Gatecrasher
Hello, folks, hope this discussion helps me fix my problem with this game that has been quite a pain in my butt. So much that I stopped playing it for months because of how much it frustrated me.

Even though I stated most of the issue on the title, I'm going to be more specific.

The game runs smoothly, and I always start a campaign with the same setup: Rookie difficulty (because this game is hard as ♥♥♥♥ even for the most advanced players sometimes), tutorial disabled, reduced voiceovers and subtitles on. For the second wave options, I usually like to start with Reapers and increase Avatar Project timer. WoTC intro & Ironman Mode are disabled.

So, Operation Gatecrasher starts and I play through it normally. It all goes as expected until I finish the mission, where the game crashes, with no warning, straight to desktop, during the loading screen taking place between the Mission Result Briefing in Skyranger and the cutscene where the soldiers arrive at the Avenger for the first time. It happens right after loading and it still happens even if I save the game before finishing Gatecrasher and loading it after restarting the game.

It's quite obvious that, due to my 151 mods installed in my workshop for the game, that it's a mod-related issue. Due to the fact that the crash happens after finishing the first mission, it's going to be a painful and time-consuming process to manually see what mod is causing this. I already tried to google this mistake to see if anyone on Steam or Reddit had asked before and/or got a fix for this, but couldn't find it anywhere.

So, if anyone knows some sort of solution or knows a mod which causes this issue, I'd be extremely thankful, because this is one of my favorite games of all time and it would be a shame if I had to stop playing forever because of an issue I couldn't solve.

EDIT: I'm already using AML, just forgot to mention it in the discussion. Sorry, Turok, my mistake.

Use the XCOM 2 Alternative mod launcher it'll highlight any mod conflicts and it's whats recommended if you're using mods since the 2k launcher is considered fairly broken.

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention it. I've been using AML since I first started playing the game, but the launcher doesn't show any conflicts or missing hard dependencies. That's the weird part
1. Create a Steam Mod Collection and add all your desired mods into your collection. When you are done, unsubscribe from all mods (by clicking the button "Unsubscribe all" on your collection page) ;

2. Delete everything here, even your xcomengine.ini :

Documents\My Games\XCOM2 War of the Chosen\XComGame\Config

3. Delete everything here (if there's anything left) :

Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\268500

4. Verify the integrity of your game files :

From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties, then select Local files tab and click on the 'Verify integrity of game files' button.

5. Clear your Steam download cache by clicking on :

Steam (top-left of your Steam window) > Settings > Downloads > Clear download cache > Ok

6. Restart your computer and then open Steam. Subscribe to your collection by clicking "Subscribe all".

7. Delete your AML folder and reinstall the app. Open it and adjust the settings such as the path to your Xcom 2 mod folder. You may or may not need to restart the app in order for it to detect your mods. When it displays all your mods, start the game.

8. Close the game.

9. Open it again. When on the game main menu, go in Options and Mod Options and adjust the settings of each mods to your liking. You must do it NOW. After this, save your options and get back to the game main menu. Close the game.

10. Open it again and start a new game.

If your game still crashes after all these steps, it is very likely that you have a mod that is NOT compatible with WOTC or that is simply broken/deprecated.

Yes and no. The most likely reason for your crashes is due to the game using old .ini files that were not updated after mod manipulation (like adding or removing a mod). The game searches for entries that do not exist anymore and it doesn't recognise.

EDIT : Just to be clear, I'm not a Xcom modder (although I mod other games), but I did experienced what you are going through (and occasionally other type of issues). It took me a LONG time before figuring out how to solve this. That's why I wrote this troubleshooting tutorial compiling all I found and what ultimately fixed my CTD problem (from the starting mission). I wrote this troubleshooting more for me than anyone else, to be honest.
