I have been experimenting with different mod combinations. My preferred combination is Mundane Zombies with a number of powerful items blacklisted to rebalance the game.
When I enter character creation, the message “Please wait while…” occurs followed by the game crashing with my terminal spitting out “segmentation fault (core dumped).”
I have experimented a lot, but not thoroughly. The game has crashed whenever I blacklist items. Mundane Zombies works. No Powered Armor/No Energy Weapons (separately) cause the game to crash.
Other mods such as More Survival Tools, Vehicle Additions, Boats, etc. work flawlessly.
I am using Ubuntu 14.04, git pulled, version 0.C-7412-g333924c. I think that this is unique to this build as things worked fine the last time that I compiled the game (though I deleted the data).
