Problem launching a new game

DEBUG : Error: data/mods//dda/…/…/json/clothing_mods.json: line 3:12: unrecognized JSON object

FUNCTION : bool main_menu::new_character_tab()

LINE : 696

Starting a new game gives me this error.
Not sure what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

see here for further info, https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/33931

fixes may be incoming soon for mainline mods, but mods like clothing_mods that are external, will need the author or someone else to fix them to meet the new stricter JSON requirements being enforced.

also someone made the inevitable thread for it here Build 9612 broke all my mods!
