Same problem here.

MCM

yes I have to disable this mod otherwise I am unable to load the Avenger defense mission.

This just happened to me too! I had to google the answer.

Is there a fix for this yet? Also the Covert Ops Recovery Mission locks up too.

I have this mod along with 200+ others, including RealityMachina's Light Strategy, MOCX and Raider mods, numerous -bg- mods, CX mods, fixes, ect. I use Alternative Mod Launcher (AML) and never had a problem with loading or playing the game.

My suggestion is that you use the AML and make certain that your load order is something like this...
Load at 0 - Community Highlander (so it loads first and creates all the code to hang other mods off)
Then load your mods in this order - Customised looks and voice packs - Additional Alien/Advent - Weapons - Soldier classes - Buffs and Nerfs - QoL - Gameplay - Fixes
Final mod to load - Mod Config Menu (to pick up all the changes)

As you see the fixes are at the end (I have this mod as QoL) so any overwriting can be done after the previous mods have loaded. Obviously if there are mods that conflict then you will need to choose, but with AML you can easily create a mod load order and save it. You can save multiple load orders and chose a different one for each new campaign too.

I hope this helps with your gaming.

I have 340 mods and I don't have this issue either. Maybe the problem is when you people load a game in Tactical mode instead in Strategy Mode (in the Avenger). Not sure.

what do u mean by load in tactical mod ? this is a very known bug i doubt that just loading the game without disabling the mod for the specific mission type would fix anything

I've had issues with this mod and Avenger Base Defense specifically when using Psi Overhaul (v3 in my case). Had to disable this one here and the mission played out normally.
Didn't have this issue before, running around 400 mods.

wow. wish i would've seen this before i began getting into modding. best advice ever. i did it to some extent, putting foundational mods first, but after that was batches of mods i wanted and could live without, not realizing things like cosmetics didn't cause issues (as i reckon from your order), because i've not organized mine as you have. I DO get issues from this mod. I noticed it caused crashes both games that it took photos while on mission. both crashed the next time the "garbageremoval" process of the game tried to work. Great advice though.

501 active mods. Just got my first Avenger defense mission, no issues.

I bumped into this thread very late... the first time it happened to me i had no idea why, i had to cheat my way out of the avenger mission and set it to autocomplete so i could continue playing the game.
I'll be starting a modjam campaign soon, so i guess better late than never.
Thanks to Marbozir for pointing the bug out.
