No, that's the Budgeted Custom gamestart.
Re: Why dose it say moded.
Okei then there is something goin on for sure . Made Fresh start yesterday becouse i relised that steam workshop thing was on for some resion dunno why, and i made sure i did not take anything that said moded, and evrything was fine until the game autosaved and then it turned to moded, do you whant a save to check it out?
Re: Why dose it say moded.
If you'd like to upload one somewhere and provide a link, then go ahead. It will at least tell us whether you're doing something that would be expected to mark a save as modified or not. If not, however, then it won't tell us much about why as that's almost always caused by something external to the game.

i Rather do it my self, it makes it more exiteing to me wen i start over next timedtpsprt wrote: ↑Mon, 20. Sep 21, 10:34Have you guys thought that actually starting the Custom Editor not as Budgeted but as Creative it means that the game is moded? Or that even using the Budgeted one there are things in there that can make a game moded, especially where storylines are involved and High Mass Teleportation. I can understand the frustration the player has when offered too little in the Budgeted mode, mainly because the amount in that is dependent in what one has achieved during vanilla games so far.
That said, and for those interested there is a "workaround" for that:SpoilerShowYou can always find a "big" vanilla save game with lots of achievements and money, not your own explicitly, if you know (or guess) where to find one. If you load it and save then whatever was in that game counts in your own Budgeted Game Editor

Re: Why dose it say moded.
I haven't tested your save game, but I did so with one from Imperial Good. A few hours flying around didn't make my game modified and I'm leaning towards it being a driver/firmware or hardware problem that happens to be triggered.
The following was output in -debug all logging at least twice although the file seems to be completely intact and everything works fine upon restarting the game.
One thing we tried was comparing the SHA256 for each file and they were identical. At the same time the problem seems to have fixed itself by uninstalling and reinstalling the Terran DLC.
This is a mysterious fault and I would like to go further by checking hardware and drivers in detail, but I assume he's not near me so I can crash his place.

Re: Why dose it say moded.
Wrong. The 'modified' tag, from the very beginning, has meant that non-Egosoft, non-sanctioned modifications or additions have been made to the game, negating the ability for Egosoft to properly troubleshoot problems. The Custom Creative starts were created using the currently vanilla game. However, the 'modified' tag now means that Egosoft can't distinguish between 'Vanilla' Creative starts and external, non-Egosoft modifications to the game. So there's potentially no scenario for Egosoft to troubleshoot issues encountered due to a Creative Custom start, which is part of the vanilla 4.10 game. So tell me again why it "should not matter".
For example, in my current Custom Creative start, I checked the boxes for no linear or ring highways. Yet in the game, the start and end points for many of them exist as artefacts. I haven't reported it as a bug because my game is tagged 'modified' despite having no external mods.
BTW, I objected to the X3AP Custom Game start as being modified, too, for the very same reasons. There should definitely be a different tag for vanilla custom starts vs actual modified games. Egosoft created it (Creative Custom start) so Egosoft should stand by it and not dismiss it as *modified*.
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

Re: Why dose it say moded.
My mistake. Thought you were objecting the name of the start.
Nevertheless, how does one start a game with modified map? Wasn't that the purpose of "custom" start (at least in earlier games)?
(I don't know. Haven't tried nor looked at instructions.)
